This study aims to introduce policy directions to enhance social value and publicness in the fields of national territory and urban polices. This study starts from the question of whether the national and urban policies are implemented reflecting the publicity, which is the spirit of our time and the core means of social values. This study establishes the concept of social value and publicity with practical and policy meanings in the national and urban areas, and suggests policy directions for enhancing social values and publicness by their main issues. The policy tasks are introduced for each main issue by dividing into social real estate, urban regeneration, and national property development.
Recently, social and economic unbalance has been a major issues in national and urban policy. Also the importance of social economy is emerging in the transition to ‘4th Industrial Revolution’. In this regard, inclusion and shared cities concepts are discussed as important social values of national and urban policies. The discussion of social values and publicity in international

organizations such as UN-HABITAT, emphasizes participation to respond against slums and social unbalance. The OECD emphasizes the improvement of infrastructure access and public services in order to realize spatial inclusion.
World Bank is turning to address inconvenient growth and poverty, which has been discussed from the past. As a result, it is necessary to establish the concept of social value into efficiency and equity, and to focus social value on improving equality rather than efficiency in spatial policy. Policy issues includes residential and environmental-oriented policies such as quality of life, stabilizing real estate market, safety of citizens, aging mix, and population decline.
In order to reinforce social values and publicity, this study introduces policy directions of social real estate, urban regeneration, and national property development. To increase publicness by securing social real estate, this study introduces the establishment of ‘Social Property Management Organization Act’, to strengthen publicness of land properties and development projects. This act includes the establishment purpose, requirements, funding, managing standards of the social property organization. To strengthen publicness in urban regeneration projects, this study recommends a comprehensive master plan for the entire city rather than planning the project site. Also developing a monitering system to evaluate social and welfare urban services for urban citizens. In developing national properties, fundamental principals must be established for strengthening social publicness. This study introduces the establishment of ‘National Property Development Act’ which includes the institutionalization of development plan for utilizing national properties, promoting urban regeneration through national property development, urban functions for livability, and governance among various interested parties.
The main concept of social value in spatial policy has being changing rapidly along with the social and economic paradigm shift. The policy directions
SUMMARY ・ 137 introduced in this study should be considered with low growth and population decline. A long-term roadmap should be established, and institutional improvement measures must be derived responding the main issues that may arise in the policy implementation process. For future research, it would be effective to subdivide the national and urban areas to strengthen social values and publicity, and conduct in-depth research in each field.
