부패방지를 위한 청탁금지법의 역할과 문제점

Public office is prone to corruption because of its monopoly and power. Ensuring the integrity of public office is a task for the protection of our human rights. The Anti-Solicitation Act is the norm for carrying out the contemporary task of preventing corruption. The Anti-Solicitation Act is believed to have contributed to increasing the integrity of public officials since its enforcement and has made many changes in society. The National Anti-Corruption & Civil Rights Commission can also be assessed as having worked properly. This article points out the Anti-Solicitation Act’s role and problems in order to make the act work better to prevent corruption for public officials. However, the act still reveals its ambiguity in various regulations, and a number of problems are pointed out in the interpretation of the National Anti-Corruption & Civil Rights Commission. The act and regulations were created based on the prevailing hierarchical culture in society, and that the ideas of the family were excessively reflected. But in order for this act to be more stable and reliably enforced, it is necessary to rectify many of its problems as soon as possible. Overly rigid interpretation of the anti-solicitation act should be avoided.
