ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to examine the trend of crime committed by foreigners in Gyeongbuk · Gumi area, along with the change in its control. The official data provided by the Statistical Office and the National Police Agency were analyzed to assess the situation of foreigner crime in order to suggest its countermeasures. The newspapers in the major regional media were used to analyze the articles on foreigner crime in the area, focusing on how the criminal cases were handled during the specific period. This analysis confirmed the problems that the police in the area lacks capacity to control a growing number of foreigner crimes which have also become much more brutal. The policy suggestions are as follows. First, there is a need of deploying a group of personnel solely committed to handle foreigner crime, considering the substantial foreigner population in the area. Second, it is necessary to build a community-based safety network. Third, the communities with a large cluster of foreigners need to be managed in consideration of their unique characteristics. Fourth, an exclusive channel for foreigners should be established in each community.
