협력적 거버넌스 구축 및 운영에 관한 연구: 출소예정자의 취업·창업지원 융합행정을 중심으로

As a way of resolving today's social problems and delivering public services, the close cooperation of several administrative institutions is more effective than keeping strict boundaries, and adhering to the notion of ‘a single consumer of a single institution.' As such, the cooperation of multiple institutions is increasingly in demand as a means of resolving problems common to several related projects. In Korea, this perspective has been driven by the ‘integrated administration’ approach since 2010. Against this background, this paper attempts to analyze one of the integrated administration programs, the job creation and placement program for ex-offenders, a program in which five institutions cooperate; the Ministry of Public Administration and Security, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Employment and Labor, the Rural Development Administration, and the Small and Medium Business Administration. The analysis results reveal considerable achievement of the main goals of the program. Yet the role of the Ministry of Public Administration and Security seemed to be vague, and the support of the political community (i.e., the National Assembly and political parties) as well as the President was not properly secured. Consequently, it is recommended that the Ministry of Public Administration and Security play a more positive role in the cooperation process as a mediator, and the political community including the President offer more support to this type of program.
