Political Commentator Lee Jong-hoon Publishes 'Dreaming of a Thinking Nation Part 3'

Political commentator Lee Jong-hoon announced on the 17th that he has published an e-book titled "Dreaming of a Thinking Nation Part 3," which contains the future vision of the Republic of Korea.

In Part 1, Lee proposed a transition to a "Thinking Nation" suitable for the era of "humans without labor," based on the premise that robots and artificial intelligence will encroach on human jobs. In this context, he also pointed out the necessity of establishing a "Thinking Exchange."

In Part 2, he first examined in detail the process and consequences of robots and artificial intelligence encroaching on jobs, then explored the need to introduce a robot tax and basic income related to the transition to a Thinking Nation.

Furthermore, assuming a shift from a society of "equal opportunity" to a society of "equal value," he emphasized that in a society of "equal value," a "miracle of the theater" is necessary in terms of administrative services.

In this third part, Lee addresses the "miracle of the theater" expected to occur in the field of administrative services. He predicts that with the widespread adoption of robots and artificial intelligence, the number of public officials, most of whom are office workers, will inevitably decrease.

Even in this situation, to satisfy the values pursued by each citizen, the quantitative and qualitative levels of administrative services must improve. He explains whether this is possible and how to make it possible.

He also examines what changes the "miracle of the theater" will bring beyond the administrative domain, including politics and power structures.

In a diversified situation, it will naturally evolve into a more direct form of democracy, but he analyzes what the specific form will be and what preparations should be made in response.
