The Korean economy has grown successfully during the
past several decades. Korean armed forces are struggling to
achieve self-reliance as soon as possible.
Both the economy and defense need advanced technology
to maintain their rate of growth and to accomplish the country's
utmost goal, self-sufficiency.
By examining the historical background of the Korean
economy and national defense, the author's intent is to find
causes and problems of past growth and also to define new
relationships between the economy and national defense.
Finally, this thesis focuses on the role of defense
authority to lead in the utilization of technology rather
than depend upon the Korean economy entirely for Korean
technological advancement.
