초록

This article is concerned with the mutual relationship, characteristics and tasks of culture, welfare and religion focusing on culture·arts·tourism·sport-briefly culture-service in social enterprise, but its ultimate purpose lies in creating religion as an independent service type. Religion has intimate relation with culture, and so it has been regarded as part of culture in social enterprise. The religion-based social enterprises for culture service are very few in comparison with other services. It means that religion deals with poverty in terms of economical status without paying attention to the power of culture to overcome it. Though it is true that religion and culture relate to each other, culture does not necessarily include religion, and in this regard it needs to establish religion as an independent service type. Considering from the perspective of social welfare, however, culture service of social enterprise makes culture itself of resource, satisfies the cultural desire of the disadvantaged group with it. In contrast to such ‘cultural welfare' religious welfare tries to realize religious value and principle through caring of disadvantaged people, but religion itself does not become the object of social contribution as resource. It should remember that religion has also responsibility for strengthening publicity through commodification of its huge heritage and caring the disadvantaged group, realizing its own value as an important material, spiritual resource. If religion is classified as separate service type in parallel with culture, the two can complement each other; it means that consideration on religious heritage can make social change in Korea as well as its ideological or philosophical basis understand more deeply. Moreover it is expected that continuous effort could more easily be attempted toward finding out various precious religious cultural resources hidden or neglected throughout the country and highlighting both their economical and social value.
