So far, the welfare system for veterans has developed focusing on improving
patriotism and systemizing welfare services for veterans. In the structure of the
welfare governance that changes into region-centered welfare paradigm, the
welfare service delivery system for veterans is in line with the social welfare
delivery system in a large sense.
The role of governance that focuses on patriotism and welfare for veterans
reflects the characteristics of local governments in terms of welfare services for
veterans and the base of government’s policy to prepare for security and peaceful
reunification. The connection of patriots and veterans affairs and welfare of
veterans is the major task of welfare governance for veterans aimed at peaceful
reunification that follows the Framework Act on Veterans Affairs and looks
through past, present, and future.
This study examined tasks through the introspective recognition of the central
and local governments about patriots and veterans affairs and welfare for veterans
that are aimed at the unity of the people and the development of the country. The
study also reviewed the project of rewarding veterans and the effort to cherish
and protect the country.
In that respect, it makes suggestions about the expansion of reward for veterans
and welfare for veterans to practice the welfare governance for veterans and the
reunification welfare governance. It also proposes to promote the extension of
education about security and reunification, and the tasks creating the culture of
rewarding the veterans.
