strengthening the Putnam’s model through blending David Easton’s advantageous aspect of the system theory, grasping the negotiation procedure in between states and penetrating inside a reputed black box of state’s decision making apparatus. As a result, the troop dispatch decision can be understood as a multi-dimentional interaction between state-counter party state, and the political entities within domestic circles. In order to distill some meaningful implication, this thesis selected three troop dispatch cases that covers the timeframe of roughly 40 years: Vietnam, East Timor and Iraq. Certain lessons have been retrieved from the analysis. First, voices of the society tend to gain trait as democracy progresses, culminating in the strengthened domestic elements, especially NGOs and the media. Second, when president loses its grips, the whole structure will likely to malfunction. Third, ;;legitimacy’ becomes an important factor in troop dispatch decision. Fourth, international structure does not necessarily fixate the Korea’s range of option or win set. Fifth, narrowing the domestic win set would not automatically lead to a favorable outcome. To remedy such shortfalls and upgrade the decision making process, this thesis suggests that the government should factor in the civil society’s view in advance, and the president should orchestrate the decision making process and display his/her stance in lucid fashion. Adding to that, it is important to forge legitimacy in whatever terms it may be and the president should fully understand the structural constraint and should maximize the national interest within that boundary. Lastly, the president should not only consider the win set itself but the overall implication of the dispatch decision.Keywords: troop dispatch, decision making mechanism, win setStudent number: 2004-23909
