Abstract

In this paper, we analyzed the development process of the resident association system in Korea and tried to derive strategic implications for the resident association system in Korea by comparing the resident association system in the United Kingdom and Japan, which are developed countries for resident autonomy. In Chapter 2, the current status and progress of the residents' associations were analyzed through “Introduction of the resident autonomy center and resident autonomy committee under the Kim Dae-jung administration”, “Introduction of the resident autonomy association under the Lee Myung-bak administration”, and “Pilot implementation of the resident autonomy association according to the standard ordinance of the Ministry of Public Administration and Security”. In Chapter 3, the difference was analyzed by comparing the Parish of England, Ichikai in Japan, and Korea's Residents' Autonomous Association. In Chapter 4, the implications of Korea's residents' autonomous association were drawn through the comparison of the Korean and residents' autonomous association systems of the England and Japan. From advanced cases such as the England and Japan, the strategic implication of Korea's residents' autonomous association is that, first, in terms of the installation unit of the residents' autonomous association, it is necessary to reorganize the residents' autonomous association by reducing the unit of eup, myeon, or dong, or to introduce a resident's autonomous association in the unit of tonri or apartment. Second, in terms of the institutional composition of residents' autonomous associations, it is necessary to recognize the status of quasi-governmental organizations as local divisions of residents' autonomous associations in eup, myeon, and dong. In addition, the legislative right, organizational right, office handling right, financial right, etc. stipulated by the ordinance should be gradually transferred to the residents' association. Third, in terms of the functions and affairs of the Residents' Autonomy Council, it is necessary to expand the subject of residents' autonomy by separately regulating the autonomous affairs through the revision of the Decentralization Act, etc. Fourth, in terms of financial resources for residents' autonomous associations, it is necessary to secure independent financial resources such as membership fees, public facility usage fees, and rental income. Lastly, in terms of residents' autonomy councils (associations), in order to vitalize the operation of city, county and district residents' autonomy councils, it is necessary to strengthen the capacity of management and strengthen financial power through membership fees and financial support from local governments.
