ABSTRACT

This article compare and contrast children’s budget from theoretical perspectives and derive implications for Korea. Children’s budget is proposed by UN, international organizations and childrens’ right advocate groups as an institutional tool for allocating public funds for childrens’ rights. It reports financial contributions of one country for children’s rights directly to the citizens. Children’s budget has diverse forms and structure in accordance with the institutional contexts of countries. This article chooses representative cases and compares them with the criteria of approaches to the children’s rights, scope of children’s budget, method for program/project analysis, level of institutionalization. Analysis shows central and state governments have variety of approaches. In particular, civic groups play an important role for children’s budget. Based on this, the author proposed that Korea choose method compatible with institutional context and work with civic groups for institutionalization of children’s budget.
