- Abstract
- It is surely too early to assess the progress of the ongoing administrative reform
by the current Kim Young Sam government. This paper, however, attempts to characterize
it, if preliminarily. The current administrative reform takes the form of an
unprecedentedly strong, swift, and wide-ranged reform from above. Its purpose is
clearly set out for de-authoritarianism. But this kind of reform may not be undertaken
without cost. It seems that it causes economic recovery to suffer, if shortrun.
Later this paper turns to the administrative reform mechanism, the
Presidential Commission on Administrative Innovation(PCAI), which can be distinguished
from its predecessor in several respects, and evaluate its unique strength
and weakness. Finally, it draws some preliminary conclusions and provides some
prospects for the Korean government's administrative reform which seems to set
no time limit.
