Abstract
The necessity to chart a new course in the policy planning of national welfare has grown out of a variety of conditions that have been generated not only from Korea‘s situation but also by current international trends. Korea has embarked on a globalization drive in an effort to formulate policies that will conform to the standards set by advanced countries, while at the same time tailoring these policies to the circumstances that exist within Korea herself. This paper is the first step in an attempt to build a unique Korean welfare model capable of guiding future policy directions in a way that deals with the changing economic, social and political conditions as we prepare to enter the 21st century.
