ABSTRACT

Conflict assessment has been widely utilized in Korea for the prevention and diagnosis of public conflict. Although conflict assessment has developed in response to the characteristics of complex and diversified public conflicts, a limitation of the approach is its tendency to overlook the variety of opinions among stakeholders. This study was conducted in order to establish whether recognition exists for stakeholder groups usually separated from public conflict. More specifically, a Q analysis was undertaken of the Dangjin City transmission towers case. The results reveal various types of recognition among the groups and confirm the subjective characteristics of each type. On the basis of the results, suggestions are made for closer identification and recognition of stakeholders in conflict assessment. It is hoped that this study could serve as a starting point for strengthening the public conflict management capacity of government through more systematic and effective conflict assessment.
