This study examined the role of volunteer fire fighters in coping with great disasters in terms of community-based disaster management to provide some implications from a qualitative comparative case study between Korea and Japan. Kobe, which suffered from the Great Hanshin-Awaji earthquake in 1995, was the study area. The city experienced an inadequate institutional system and lack of disaster management infrastructure at the time before the disaster. The study indicates that Korea volunteer fire fighters are not prepared sufficiently to tackle great disasters in terms of the supporting system, capacity and role by analyzing improvement plans of Japanese Volunteer Fire Fighters after Great East Japan earthquake in 2011. The results of the case study suggests improvements in the disaster management system to provide cooperation between the central government and local government, core task distribution, and community-based disaster management.

The purpose of this study is to discuss an academic concept transition of volunteer firefighting after implementation of the ｢Volunteer Fire Brigade Establishment & Operation Act｣. For that, the definition, function, and support of member for the volunteer fire brigade and the quasi-public organization were compared and analyzed using laws and its implementing ordinances, local ordinances, references, etc. In results, we can consider the definition of the volunteer fire brigade in relation to that of the quasi-public organization. In addition, it showed that the volunteer fire brigade have the function of the sub-administrative organization in the quasi-public organization. The support of volunteer firefighting was very similar to that of the village foreman as example of the sub-administrative organization. In conclusion, an academic concept of the volunteer firefighting was translated from the general volunteer organization to the sub-administrative organization in the quasi-public organization. The result in this paper is expected to serve as a basis for the research of the volunteer fire department in Korea.

This study sought to analyze the relationship between the operation of volunteer fire brigades and the efficiency of fire-fighting administrations. To this end, the efficiency of the fire-fighting administrations of 16 metropolitan and provincial governments in South Korea were measured using data envelopment analysis (DEA) from 2011 to 2018. In addition, the relationship between the operation efficiency of the volunteer fire brigade and the fire administration was analyzed using a Tobit regression model. DEA found that the technical efficiency based on constant returns to scale was 82.78 ± 18.12%, the technical efficiency based on variable returns to scale was 89.31 ± 12.46%, and the efficiency of the scale was 91.72 ± 10.56%. Tobit regression analysis found the ratio of volunteer fire brigade personnel, the budget ratio of the volunteer fire brigade, and the enforcement of the Act on the Establishment and Operation of Volunteer Fire Brigades to have significant positive effects on the pure technical efficiency of local governments. In addition, when the ratio of volunteer fire brigade personnel or ratio of budget had a positive effect on the efficiency of fire administration, the enforcement of the volunteer fire brigade statute exerted a positive adjustment effect. This study thus shows that volunteer fire brigades have a positive impact on the efficiency of the fire-fighting administrations of metropolitan and provincial governments.
