기초학력보장법 제정 과정에서의 정책네트워크 분석

The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of the policy network revealed in the legislation of the Basic Academic Achievement Guarantee Law. In the progress of the basic academic achievement education policy that began in the 1980s, this study focuses on the policy network revealed in the process of legislation from March 2016 to August 2021. The researchers utilized related laws, media reports, and public hearing materials produced over the past five years, and analyzed the actors, major issues, and network structure by dividing the process of legislation into initiation period, standstill period, and agreement period. According to research results, the Basic Achievement Guarantee Law took the form of an issue network and underwent changes according to changes in the policy environment and network between actors. Various conflicts were agreed upon through the legislation initiation process, and the bill was been passed after excluding major issues such as the one class two teachers system or the mandatory diagnostic evaluation which were included in the initial bill. Although the entire legislation process achieved the purpose of legislating the policy, it needs reflection on the the compromise strategy for the passage of the bill. Finally, the researchers suggested further research topics on the conceptualization of the basic academic achievement, reconsideration of compromise strategy, and expansion of policy actors for the future.
