AB - This paper draws upon Habermas’ work on the legitimacy crisis of the modern welfare state and discursive democracy to suggest solutions to the publicness crisis of the social service delivery system. Following the financial crisis in 1997, Korean government has attempted to enlarge a range of social security programs, and introduced the neo-liberal market system to public administration and policy implementation. Subsequently, there has been controversy regarding the crisis of publicness, particularly in the social services and related delivery systems. Yet, the debate has not produced consensus about the meaning of publicness, which values the concept includes, nor policy alternatives as solutions to the crisis. This study suggests that Habermas’ writings on the crisis of legitimacy in the welfare state and discursive democracy can be used for guidance. In particular, Habermas’ work on legitimacy can aid the analysis of current Korean publicness issues from a broader perspective, which can help to find the causes and the nature of the crisis, while his theory of democracy offers an alternative way to solve the crisis of the Korean social service system.
