Gender is an aspect of the natural identity of a person that has been given ample attention in socio-cultural, psychological, and political studies worldwide. Transgender, which is a part of gender ...issues, is still lacking in information on definitions of transgender, its causes, society's perceptions toward it, and interpretations on transgender action. Transgender is an umbrella term that describes people whose gender identity or expression does not match the sex they have been assigned at birth. It is one of the most important signs of progress produced by scientific advancement in the field of medicine, which is a relatively new phenomenon. Due to the lack of research on transgender, researchers study this issue at the theoretical and public opinion levels and from different perspectives. The objectives are to provide insights into the landscape of gender issues, instill awareness among communities and make them understand the psychological pains and the emotional difficulties that the transgender go through. Transgender issues must be analyzed from the perspectives of humanity, ethics, and culture.
Data were gathered through open-ended interviews among nine participants. And to complement the data, particularly about the public's opinions toward the transgender, a focus group discussion (FGD) was held among four participants.
The findings indicate that the transgender community often faces social discrimination due to the social stigma towards them. Thus, the treatment should be more on psychological therapies, family education, community awareness, and social activism that are needed to realign the transgender to the right track.
This study provides insights into the landscape of gender equality and ways to support those with gender identity issues. Hence, this research carries values to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) in enhancing the policy on gender equality.
본 연구는 오늘날 우리사회에서 남북 통일 및 통합의 새로운 접근방법으로 제기되고 있는 사회문화 통합의 근본적이고 실천적 규범체계를 세우는 것이다. 남북한 사회문화 통합에 있어서 윤리적 당위와 문화적 가치의 균형적 조화와 올바른 실천의 사고와 행동, 요구되는 덕목과 역량의 설정의 윤리문화적 사유와 가치체계를 적용하여 사회문화 통합의 적실성과 타당성을 ...확보함으로써 완전한 통일과 올바른 통합을 견인하는 진정한 통합력을 이끌어 내는 남북한 사회문화 통합의 접근 논리와 방법을 제시하는 것이다. 이를 통해 사회적으로 통일에 대한 당위성과 필연성을 제고시키고 학문적으로 사회문화 통합과 관련한 인문학적 담론과 연구를 촉진시켜 통일 및 통합의 이론체계를 발전시키며 철학적 토대를 보강할 수 있는 대안을 제안하고 있다.

En años recientes, las directivas anticipadas (DAs) han sido incorporadas de manera creciente en las sociedades latinoamericanas como un instrumento que permite a los pacientes especificar el modo en ...que desearían ser tratados en caso de que no sean competentes. El objetivo principal de estos instrumentos es, por lo tanto, incrementar el respeto por la autonomía de los pacientes. No obstante, es importante para ello conocer la experiencia que arrojaron las DAs en otros países, para poder diseñar así la mejor manera de implementarlas. Igualmente importante es identificar posibles facilitadores y barreras que pudiera ofrecer el contexto latinoamericano para llevar a cabo dicho proyecto. En este artículo se analiza la evolución de las DAs en los Estados Unidos, se concentra especialmente en las dificultades que surgieron a lo largo de este proceso, y que se deben fundamentalmente a un abordaje excesivamente individualista del proceso de toma de decisiones. En contraste con ello, se argumenta que el rol importante que desempeñan generalmente las familias, u otras personas cercanas al paciente, en las sociedades Latinoamericanas ofrece condiciones favorables para lograr un abordaje más relacional, capaz de superar los problemas del modelo individualista. Sin embargo, se argumenta también que se necesitan esfuerzos importantes para mejorar la calidad de la relación médico-paciente-familia. En particular, la superación de las acciones paternalistas todavía ejercidas por algunos médicos, frecuentemente en conjunto con los familiares, constituye una condición necesaria para la implementación de las DAs.
