The guiding research question of this paper is to discover 'why the UK could not develop a general structure in which transnational corporations were born during the end of the 19th ~ beginning of the 20th century like other countries'. In response to this question, although acknowledging its imperfections, the author would like to explore the causality in the context of 'Social Construction' which is reflected in the attributes of British society. As such, researchers are strongly recommended to take into account the actors' interests and the increased value effect of events which is driven by control power. This paper concludes that: firstly, not only was contempt for industrial capitalism prevalent in British society, the British government was unable to recognize the necessity of promoting policies for the development of transnational corporation. In addition, the increase in the clout of commercial-financial capitalists in the city of London along with the expansion of gentlemanly elites interfered with the transnationality of British companies. Secondly, the foundation of the political and economic structures in the UK experienced continuity and challenge simultaneously. Since the 1850's, the British social structure has been progressively characterized by the strengthening power of the commercial-financial elites in London, which resulted not in the transnationality of manufacturing but that of financial services. Finally, the configuration of the social network driven by the British elites consists of the actors' interests and control power in association with severance and connection. Unlike the complementarity of interests, in the initial stage, intended connection based on voluntary motivation between gentries and commercial-financial elites occurred in terms of control power. However, ultimately, the holding of power was transferred to the commercial-financial elites excluding the industrial capitalists and resulted in the reconfiguration of the social network.

Body insertion due to the recent development of sensor technology, the device is attached patients to receive medical services from anywhere, anytime environment is changing. Body insertion devices for the hospital, the patient's vital information attached personnel (doctors, nurses, pharmacists, etc.) to pass, however, when a problem occurs, a patient's information to a third party that can be exploited easily exposed. In this paper, we proposed signature authentication protocols mandate based on the patient's power of attorney from the center of the u-Healthcare services, hospital officials FormHelper third party disguised as a patient, the hospital patient information easily obtained from the officials to prevent. The proposed protocol, the patient's sensitive information to a third party, do not expose the patient's sensitive information to the random number generated by the u-Healthcare service centers and patients hash signature key to encrypt sensitive information of patients.

This study aimed to examine how strictly child-related sexual crimes were sentenced in Korea. The target cases of the study included eight cases that were appealed to the Supreme Court between 2000 and 2015. The main findings of the assessment of the eight cases indicated that there were sentences with lower terms than laws regarding sexual crimes against children. While laws should be strictly applied to cases of sexual crimes against children, the level of penalty was found to be relatively generous compared to the applicable laws. In particular, the reason for the crimes, the lack of any history of sexual crimes by the perpetrator, the perpetrator's relationship with the child victim, forgiveness from the children, and regret of the perpetrator were found to reduce sentences. Comparatively, the exploitation of parent status, the accusation of the perpetrator, and the lack of mutual consent were factored in consideration of harsher sentences. The findings suggest that it is necessary to reexamine the levels of sentences related to sexual crimes against children.
