지방분권을 통한 지방발전과 방송의 역할에 관한 법적 문제

Decentralization essentially implies a strong meaning of realizing underdeveloped regions through constitutional declarations or national goal regulations, rather than simply developing them at the national policy level. In this respect, it is not just a matter of time to examine the original meaning of the decentralized state orientation, which has emerged as a national goal regulation (Staatszielbestimmung), but is closely related to the country’s future-oriented policy decision and national mid- to long-term plan. In particular, in order for decentralization for local development to not only be a simple declarative regulation, an institutional medium that can actively reflect the will of local residents is needed, and this role has traditionally been played by mass media such as newspapers and broadcasting. Therefore, it is meaningful in that it is a concrete realization of local development through decentralization to examine the role of the mass media, especially broadcasting with special influence, for local development through decentralization. For the development of local culture through media, especially broadcasting, local broadcasting must provide local programs that can provide accurate information and interests to local residents. Second, programs with local culture as content should not be judged as a simple policy. Third, local broadcasting should be interpreted as a digital content. The introduction of MMS serves as a catalyst for revitalizing digital broadcasting and is a powerful means to strengthen free universal services and public services through terrestrial channels, and it can strengthen the competitiveness of terrestrial broadcasting. At the same time, through this, it is possible to pursue the promotion of local culture at the same time.
