교육발전특구 정책 추진 과정에서 나타난 교육행정기관과 일반행정기관 간 교육협력 특징 분석 = An Analysis of Educational Cooperation Characteristics Between Educational and General Administrative Agencies in the Process of Implementing Educational Development Special Zones Policy

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study analyzes the characteristics of educational collaboration between educational administration and general administration in the implementation of the Education Development Special Zone (EDSZ) policy. A total of 19 focus group interviews were conducted with EDSZ stakeholders from basic and metropolitan local governments and offices of education nationwide. The findings revealed six key characteristics: a shift in collaboration leadership from education offices to local governments; a transitional positioning between functional and strategic collaboration aspiring toward integrated collaboration; goal-sharing collaboration driven by a shared crisis awareness of declining school-age population and regional depopulation; attempts at longitudinal and cross-sectoral policy linkages constrained by local governments' insufficient understanding of education; structural complexity of multi-layered inter-institutional collaboration exacerbated by the lack of specialized organizations in basic-level local governments; and a structural tension between the long-term nature of educational outcomes and the demand for short-term policy results. Based on these findings, the study suggests establishing an institutional foundation for educational collaboration, developing support systems for basic-level local governments, and building a dual performance management framework.
