냉전 종식 후에도 동북아시아지역의 불안정 상황은 여전히 지속되고 있다 특히 핵군비와 관련하여 역내 각 국의 동향은 매우 민감한 상태이다. 이런 면에서 이 지역의 비핵지대화는 이 지역의 불안요인에 대한 안전보장 장치가 될 수 있다. 이해 당사국들이 대체로 소극적인 태도를 보이고 있기는 하나, 객관적 상황은 비핵지대화 논의에 유리하다. 논의를 본격화하기 위해서는 첫째, 핵보유국들의 비보유국들에 대한 소극적 안보 약속, 둘째, 핵보유국 상호간의 핵 선제 불사용 합의, 셋째, 핵보유국의 핵감축 의지 표명, 넷째, 일본의 핵투명성 제고 등의 충족이 요구된다. 현재까지 논의되고 있는 구상들로는 북한 핵문제에 대한 우려가 한창 고조되던 당시에 거론되었던 한반도 비핵지대화안, 동북아 비핵지대화안, 제한적 비핵지대화안 등이 있다. 5개 핵보유국들의 협조가 없는 한 비핵지대의 실현은 어렵다. 또한 역내에 3개 핵보유국을 가지고 있는 동북아 지역의 특성에 비춰 비핵지대화의 효과를 높이기 위해서는 첫째, 집단안보라는 보다 큰 틀을 전제로 하는 접근이 필요하며, 둘째, 핵보유국들의 거부반응을 괴려한 점진적 방식의 채택이 요구된다. 그러나 무엇보다도 역내 국가들 간의 신뢰 조성 및 평화와 안정의 증진이 우선해야 하며, 그 후 지역국가들 스스로의 주도로 논의를 이끌어 나가야 할 것이다.

현재 우리 군은 다가오는 인구절벽에 대비하기 위해 인공지능(AI) 기반의 과학기술강군 육성을 목표 국방혁신 4.0을 추진중에 있다. 특히 북한의 도발위협이 높아지는 현시점에 우리 군은 첨단기술을 활용한 과학화경계시스템 도입을 통해 병력절감을 도모하고 있다. 하지만 우리 군의 통합 전투능력을 보장하기 위한 핵심 기반통신체계인 전술정보통신체계(TICN)의 경우 전송 대역폭이 좁아 영상정보 송수신이 원활하지 않을뿐더러 보안 및 난청지역 발생 등의 이유로 평시 과학화경계시스템의 기반 네트워크로 활용하기에는 제한적이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문은 2017년부터 국내에서 무료로 활용할 수 있게 된 TVWS 기반의 무선네트워크 구축 기술을 활용해 TVWS 기반 과학화경계시스템 구축방안을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 TVWS 기반 과학화경계시스템의 경우 기존의 유선네트워크 기반의 과학화경계시스템과 비교해 작전공백 최소화, 구축비용 절감, 설치 및 운용의 탄력성 측면에서 다양한 장점을 가진다.

High concentration of PM10 was reported on late July, 2005 in Seoul along with high particulate ion concentrations in PM2.5. To identify the reason for the severe air pollution episode, time series analysis of the PM10 concentration in the monitoring sites over Korea, wind sector analysis, trend analysis of the ion concentrations, and air mass trajectory analysis were carried out. It was found that the episode could be classified into two separate periods; first one between July 22 and 27 and second one between July 28 and 31. During the first period, the PM10 concentrations at Seoul were in good correlation with the PM10 concentration three hours before at Chuncheon. Trajectory analysis showed that air mass moved from north and turned to west at Kangwon province to Seoul. The concentrations of PM10 mass and ionic species were lower than the second period. During the second period, air mass moved from northern China to Seoul directly and the PM10 concentrations all over the mid-Korean peninsula showed the same trend. These observations suggest that the air pollution during the second period was affected by direct transport of air pollutants from northern China. Thus, the air quality at Seoul during both periods were influenced by long-range transport from outside rather than by local sources, but with different transport patterns.

This study aims to identify changes that have occurred in the regional structure and locational characteristics of the Najin-Seonbong Economic and Trade Zone established in North Korea in 1991. In order to analyze land use patterns as variables of change in the regional structure, an field trip data, satellite imagery and other materials about the region are examined. In terms of its location as a major regional transit hub, the Najin-seonbong Economic and Trade Zone has not been supported by the required infrastructural developments and the establishment of the export processing zones has exposed the lack of vital links with local networks and industry. Thus, despite the fact that the local government has made a lot of effort in attracting foreign investment over the past decade, little progress has been made and the region has not changed. By and large, its operational efficiency and potential for development as a major export processing zone has been relatively limited. In the long w, prospects for the region's emergence as a major economic player will depend on the North Korean Govemment's policy in tackling the various infrastructural deficiencies.

UCS (=ISO/IEC 10646, =Unicode) will be used widely as globalization. If UCS is used for official purpose in Koreas, UCS solves a Problem in different hangeul code between South and North Korea. But, UCS is not a solution for problems in unequal order with the same character. IS0/1EC 146sl : 2000 (International String Ordering), which is a international standard for string ordering, defines a framework sorting all char-acter strings consisting multi-national scripts. Because the Common Template Table in ISO/IEC 14651 defines orders of characters, we can change orders of characters without changes of characters sequences in programs. Therefore, we can solve a ordering problem without unifying order of hangeul in South and North Korea. Functions related ISO/IEC 14651 are contained by system librarys in unix-based operating system such as Linux, Solaris and FreeBSD. We implement EUC-KR-based North Korean locale, which includes North Korean hangeul order, in Linux in order to use North Korean locale in South Korea. And we develop a program ordering strings with South and North Korean hangout order.

International aid to North Korea remains far below the humanitarian needs of vulnerable people. This paper examines the trajectory of international humanitarian assistance to North Korea over the last two decades with the focus on its decline in the context of the country's nuclear standoff and corresponding stringent sanctions. In so doing, the paper addresses major problems associated with North Korea's reception of foreign aid and operational constraints placed on humanitarian activities in the country. It shows that humanitarian assistance to North Korea has been largely shaped by geopolitical dynamics. A survey of UN reports and statistics also suggests a shifting trend in recent international aid to North Korea. The decline of aid and multiple operational obstacles faced by humanitarian organizations, for instance, have led to a fall in agricultural support and a proportional rise in health and related services. While UN Security Council resolutions include an exemption provision, humanitarian assistance to North Korea has been constrained by stringent sanctions, which have led to adverse consequences for the civilian population. In this regard, the paper suggests some policy directions for international aid to North Korea amidst negotiations over denuclearization, while stressing an urgent need to address the negative impact of sanctions on vulnerable groups in the country.

This study investigated formats and structure of meanings for the TV talk shows with North Korean defectors. The authors selected of Channel A and of TV Chosun as research subjects. As results of this study, it was found that the former dealt with heavy issues about North Korea, expressed positive perspectives on North Korea and fantasic expectations about South Korea, and produced superior dicourse of South Korea. On the other hand, the latter one dealt with light and sensational items about North Korea, employed dialogues about critics and disappointments on South Korea, and produced problematic discourse about South Korea. The former produced a kind of converged discourse structure to create superior ideology of South Korea, while the latter produced a kind of dichotomous discourse structure to create frustrating ideology. In short, through this study, it turned out that North Korean defectors suffered from their confused identities, unclear self identities, and minority positions in the South Korean society.

The purpose of this study is to start from the recognition of the problem of why the sanctions of the international community could not indicate a great effect. In order to find answers to this question, this study focuses on China's aid to North Korea and analyzes the determinants of support for North Korea. Despite a tough international community's sanctions against North Korea, China has taken a dual stance on sanctions and support for North Korea. As for this dual attitude of China, this study approaches the internal and external situation of the support to the North with the rationale for the Two-level game theory. China's sanction against North Korea could be divided into two categories: external factors and domestic factors. These factors include strengthening supremacy in China, checking the US, playing a responsible role in China, securing resources in North Korea, sustaining stable growth in China, maintaining the legitimacy of China's socialist political system, and spreading the Beijing consensus. Based on the analysis of these factors, it could be expected that China's aid for North Korea will be official, informal, or continuous, and it will be difficult for the North to stop supporting North Korea or deteriorating North Korea- China relations.
