This article examines the content of a just transition being discussed in the era of the climate crisis and how the Moon Jae-in government and businesses are using the response to the climate crisis. Through this analysis, the ideological competition surrounding a just transition in South Korea in 2022 will be analyzed in detail. The discussion on the transition to a low-carbon society is a real issue centered on coal-fired power plants. With this in mind, we identify the core of the Moon administration's fair transition, and then explain the characteristics and limitations of a just transition claimed by the trade unions and the reform-oriented media who criticized the Moon administration's policies. Through this, the various contents of the just transformation presented by each subject are analyzed politically. Lastly, what is necessary for the realization of a just transformation is proposed from the level of social movement theory.

In this study, the possibility and limitations of citizens to establish themselves as the subjects of deliberative democracy were explored through the analysis of the interaction process and context of the roles and powers performed by the main actors of the deliberative forum. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the Korean-style deliberative democracy led by the administration could move toward a ‘citizen-led' rather than staying as a means of civic mobilization. Nevertheless, it turned out that there were not a few challenges that had to be overcome in order for unorganized citizens to exercise “political activeness" as subjects of deliberative democracy. First, the key prerequisites for citizens to reach reflective and thoughtful judgments were the design of a more sophisticated and balanced public sphere and securing sufficient discussion time. Second, there is a need to expand deliberative democracy from one-off experiments to continuous events by providing a device for citizens outside the forum to communicate both ways with the forum site and launching follow-up programs involving citizens after drawing conclusions. Next, it was proposed to enact the Citizens Public Sphere Ordinance as the legal basis for securing civil control from the stage of agenda selection, and to link the deliberative democracy system and the direct democracy system to supplement the internal limitations of the deliberative forum.
