A study on the New Directions of Squatter Redevelopment in Korea

Abstract

大都市의 不良住居地域을 개발하는 방법에는 크게 두가지를 들 수 있다. 보통 잘 採用되는 手法은 不良住宅을 撤去하고 高層빌딩을 建立하는 "撤去"에 의한 方法이며 또 하나는 최근에 와서 論議되는 것으로 公共資金을 投資하여 現地住民의 外部移轉없이 점차적으로 開發해 나가는 "改良"에 의한 方法이다.

이러한 "改良"에 의한 개발을 가능하게 하려면 현재의 制度가 가지고 있는 여러 障碍物들이 除去되어야 할것이다.

또한 事業性을 評價하는데 있어서도 지금까지는 事業主體의 利益만을 고려하는 "受益性 分析法"에 의존하는 수가 많았으나 앞으로는 國家의 發展目標를 고려할 수 있는 "社會費用利益分析法"을 利用하는 것이 바람직 하다.

There are two kinds of urban redevelopment in squatter areas of major cities. Conventionally-used "Eradication" implies the clearence of slums and the introduction of high-rise buildings. Recently "Upgrading" is considered positively, which implies the gradual development of squatter areas using public loan and securing the tenure of occupants.

To make "Upgrading" possible several obstacles should be removed in the present national settings. Besides in evaluating alternative projects "Profitability Analysis" was widely used. But in future evaluations "Social Cost Benefit Analysis" should be considered a useful tool.
