초록

본 연구는 기존 연구들과 마찬가지로 사회학적 관심의 대상이 된 장마당세대가 많은 사회학적 범주들인 계급, 학생, 민족, 젠더 등을 넘어서 실제세대를 형성할 수 있는지에 대한 질문에서 출발하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 장마당세대의 정치의식, 교육의식, 사회의식, 준법의식, 교육의식을 기성세대와 비교하였다. 본 연구의 자료는 2016년 11월부터 12월 말까지 국내에 거주하는 북한이탈주민 가운데 5년 이내 북한이탈주민을 대상으로 하였다. 총 200부의 설문지가 자료 분석에 사용되었고, SPSS 20.0을 이용하여 빈도분석과 집단 간 차이분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 이상에서 장마당세대의 주요의식들을 기성세대와 비교하여 살펴본 결과 장마당세대의 정치의식, 사회의식, 준법의식, 교육의식은 기성세대에 비해 낮으며, 경제의식은 기성세대에 비해 높다는 결과를 도출하였다. 특히 장마당세대의 교육의식과 준법의식은 기성세대와는 확연한 차이를 나타내고 있다. 장마당세대는 객관적 세대위치로서 청소년기에 '고난의 행군'과 '공교육의 붕괴'를 경험하였다. 기성세대와 다른 장마당세대의 세대위치는 기성세대와는 다른 세대의식을 형성하는데 영향을 미쳤다. '공교육을 제대로 받은' 기성세대에 비해 '공교육을 제대로 받지 못한' 장마당세대는 전반적으로 기성세대에 비해 의식수준이 낮게 나타나는 특성을 가진다. 이렇듯 장마당세대는 기성세대와 다른 세대의식을 갖는 집단으로 하나의 세대로 구성될 가능성을 가진다.

This study poses a question on whether the Jangmadang Generation, which has been the focus of the sociological interest, can form an actual generation by transcending the social classes, status of students, ethnicity, and gender, etc. Therefore, in this study, the author compared the consciousness of the Jangmadang Generation in terms of politics, education, society, compliance with law, and education with their preceding generations. The data used in this study were gathered from the North Korean defectors who defected within the past five years over the period from November to December 2016. A total of 200 questionnaires were used for data analysis, which was conducted using SPSS 20.0, in order to show differences between groups and perform frequency analysis. The analysis results showed that the consciousness of the Jangmadang Generation in politics, society, compliance, and education was lower, while the economic consciousness was significantly higher compared to earlier generations. As their objective generational status, the Jangmadang Generation had experienced the 'March of Ordeal' and 'Collapse of Public Education' while they were still teenagers. Such a difference in their generational status influenced the formation of different consciousness as a generation compared to the earlier generations. Compared to the earlier generations who received 'proper public education,' the Jangmadang Generation, who did not receive 'decent public education' shows a generally lower level of consciousness compared to the earlier generations. As such, the Jangmadang Generation has the potential to form a separate generation with a different generation consciousness from that of earlier generations.
