Abstract

This paper examines the interviews to determine the relationship between local government and local civic organisations(LCOs) in Korea. This paper indicates that partnership between local government and local civil society is at a very early and unsettled stage, because both of them seem to be good at responding to tension and conflict, not compromise and collaboration. Despite its normative meaning, partnership at the local level has practical barriers like mistrust, too close to be critical, increasing administrative burden and over-reliance on core staff. LCOs also have developed a variety of strategies for partnership with local government and autonomy from the government that are explored in this paper. Consequently, local civil society in Korea keeps both roles of protester and partner. As a strategy, LCOs choose experts who have rich knowledge about welfare policy and whose voices are supposed to be strong and persuasive.
