Activities for Supporting North Korea by Jeju Sepcial Self-governing Province: An Analysis of Their Strategic Significance towards North-South Korean reconciliation (printed in KOREAN)

이 글은 제주도의 외교정책 보다는, 2000년 6월의 김대중-김정일 남북정상회담이후 남북한 화해협력시대의 개막과 더불어 꾸준히 추진되어온 현재의 특별자치도, 국제자유도시, '세계평화의 섬'으로서의 제주도의 통일정책 내지 대북지원사업의 현황을 긍정적 시각으로 간단히 살펴보고, 2006년 7월 북한의 미사일 발사, 10월 북한의 핵실험 이후 제기되어온 제주도의 일방적 대북지원사업에 대한 회의론을 비판적으로 분석하는 것을 주요 목적으로 한다.
