모병제에 관한 비교법적 고찰 = Artieles : Comparative Law Research on the Volunteerforces System

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Recently, many countries in Europe and Taiwan switched their soldier-recruiting system from the compulsory draft to the all-volunteer forces in which military service is considered a professional vocation. Advocates for military professionalism argue that the conscription system is no more efficient in the 21st century due to the end of the Cold War, democratization, aging populations, and so on. The conscription system is considered a system that can still function effectually from the viewpoint of the constitutional spirit of pacifism, the essence of sovereignty, and democracy. It is considered that various undemocratic problems and inequality arising in operating the conscription system are the problems that should be resolved through institutional supplementation, and that the conscription system itself is not an undemocratic and unequal system. Since the Republic of Korea always faces the possibility of war, it should agonize keenly over peace all the more. All of the people should earnestly face the sufferings that can arise from war and militarization, and if war is inevitable, should endure the sufferings of war together. The environment, in which troublesome and painful things are left entirely to particular people (mainly economically poor people) and I can make decisions about war as I please, should not be formed.
