정의로운 사회를 위한 정의로운 도시 - 사회변형 또는 사회개혁으로써 마을만들기의 가능성 -

Abstract

On Liberation Day in 2010, President Lee Myung-Bak called for the creation of a Fair Society(공정한 사회). As the urban planning process and the resulting urban built form influence the distribution of costs and benefits of contemporary society, the challenge for urban planners is to develop cities that reflect this ideal of justice. To inform this effort, this paper introduces Susan Fainstein’s concept of the Just City, which is the focus of the contemporary US debate over achieving urban social justice, and develops three critiques of the Just City from other theoretical viewpoints. These theoretical critiques demonstrate that the communicative theory critique provides a valuable extension of the Just City and that the political economy critique serves to reinforce Fainstein’s choice of strategy for implementation. The paper then offers three tentative implications for Maeulmandeulgi based on the theory and its extensions.
