초록
국가의 발전단계는 경찰국가, 급부국가, 보장국가라는 큰 패러다임으로 변화되어 왔다. 경찰국가에서 급부국가로 이전하면서 확장되는 행정조직과 양적ㆍ질적으로 확장되는 행정작용을 유지하기 위한 비용을 절감하는 것이 큰 과제이었다. 이를 위해 영미의 신공공관리이론과 독일의 신제어모델이론이 등장하였고, 민영화와 공무수탁사인이 활용되어, 경제적인 관점에서는 편익에서 비용을 공제한 개념인 효용의 극대화가 가능하였다. 행정법에서도 경제학적인 관점에서의 비용과 가치에 바탕을 두고, 비용을 투입하고 효용을 획득하는 가치를 중시하였다. 그러나 이는 행정법에서 ‘정부의 실패’와 ‘시장의 실패’로 이어지고 있다. 따라서 이제는 새로운 관점에서 행정법의 이론과 실무를 수정할 필요가 있다. 이러한 POST-NPM의 세계적인 흐름이 행정법에서도 구현되도록, ‘경제적인 효율성’에 지나치게 비중을 두어 비용과 가치에 접근하기 보다는 ‘민주성’과 ‘책임성’을 추가한 비용과 가치를 고려하여 공익을 판단해야 한다. 시민들은 헌법적 관점에서 민주주의적인 비용과 가치를 추가하고, 대화형 행정을 위한 참여 비용을 추가하는데 합의하고 있다. 또한 최근 ‘책임성’을 인정하는 것이 세계적 흐름이다. 각론적으로는 인적 보장비용과 물적 보장비용을 투입하고, ICT를 활용한 전자행정비용증대 및 ‘공사협동’같은 협조적 법치주의 방식으로 행정을 수행하고, 공기업과 민영화 기업의 적절한 역할 재배분을 하여, 비용편익분석의 한계를 극복할 수 있도록 하여야 한다. 결국 행정법 이론과 실무의 변화와 혁신은 민주주의를 위한 대화와 절차 및 보장국가를 통한 책임성을 고려하는 관점에서 서서 비용과 가치를 다시 바라본 후에 공익과 사익을 이익형량하려는 노력에서부터 이루어지게 된다.
Abstract
We can classify the stage of the development of the country which can be the foundation in Administrative Law Theory and Practice as from ‘Police State’ (Polizeistaat), via ‘Welfare State’ (Leistungsstaat), to the third Road so called ‘Guarantee State’ (Steuerungsstaat). However the big challenging task was how to reduce the enormous costs which has occurred in the course of the movement from ‘Police State’ to ‘Welfare State’ for keeping the increasing administrative organization and the quantitative and qualitative expanding administrative actions. ‘New Public Management’(NPM) from UK and USA and ‘Neues Steuerungsmodell’(NSM) from Germany has emerged as the solution for this task. Government has used Privatization and delegated many burdens to many private companies. Government has succeeded in maximization the Profit with minimum Costs through this Methodology. The Cost-Benefit Analysis has used for the Administrative Decision for appliance of NPM and NSM mainly in view of the Economic Efficiency. But Government had approached so closely to the Economical View which input costs and get benefits even in the Administrative Law Theory and Practice. As a result, Government had so often neglected to communicate with citizen and had not considered the Procedure or Process which draw the Consensus with people. Economical Efficiency was priority than Democracy and Liability in the Public Administrative Decisions. But that was not the Approach to the Pubic Decision that people really wants in Democratic Society and Guarantee State. Government had tried to focus on the pursuit of the lowest cost through privatization. Police was also the same idea which spend budget mainly on maintaining public order and does not expand to other areas. Even police had tried to pass the cost to citizen and wanted privatization. Government still lack of idea about Modern-type Risks which can not control, for example, MV Sewol sinking accident, expanding MERS events, the nuclear power plant explosion caused by Tsunami, so many Hacking cases on infrastructure facilities. So Government didn't like to input budget and spend money to invisible output such as social security and environment. However this approach has led to the Government Failure and the Market Failure aiso in the Administrative Law Theory and Practice. Now is the time to correct and modify the Administrative Law Theory and Practice of the Government from a new perspective. We should follow and join to the Global Flow of POST-NPM in the Administrative Law Theory and Practice. The important aspect of this view is to shift proportion in the Administrative Law Theory and Practice from the Economic Efficiency to Harmony with Democracy and Accountability. After this shift of view Government take into account of Public Interest and balance with Private Ineterest. Recently Many countries including UK, USA, Germany, France etc. are joining to Global Flow which are acknowledge Government's Accountability to ensure and guarantee citizen's safety and security of life, body and property. We can call this State as ‘Guarantee State’. Government should take effort to set up and expand Guarantee Costs, install Guarantee Department, furnish and repair security equipment in order to achieve the challenge which input Costs for Liability and output Guarantee Value. Government can be successful to reduce Guarantee Costs by using ICT which is instrument in E-Gov. And Government can administrate with the method of ‘Public-Private-Partnership’(PPP) which is used in Cooperative State. With PPP, Governmernts can promote Democracy and reduce Costs. Furthermore public enterprises also should take some important role to provide Pubic Service and distribute Public Goods with fairness and efficiency. So the Role between public enterprise and privatization should be distributed in harmony with each other. Government can overcome the limitation of Cost-Benefit Analysis with this shift of view point and methods. This effort to modify and correct Cost and Benefit and to change Administrative Law Theory and Practice is consistent with the Justice which was also expressed in Rawl's Justice, Habermas' Theory of Communicative Action, Nussbaum's modified Economic Value, Hoffmann-Riem‘s Guarantee State. In conclusion, the change and innovation in Administrative Law Theory and Practice is started when Government shift proportion from the Economic Efficiency to Harmony with Democracy and Accountability and approach to Public Interest.
