한강은 서울 지역을 관통하고 있다는 점에서 수도권의 수자원 이용과 폐수 수용체로서의 한강의 역할이 실로 막대하다. 이런 맥락에서 한강에서의 수질오염문제는 주요한 사회경제적 문제 중의 하나로 부각되고 있다. 한강 수질 악화를 방지하기 위한 관리 방안이 이미 시행중에 있으나 여전히 한강 수질 오염은 문제로 남아 있는 실정이다. 이를 감안하여 보다 나은 관리책에 대한 요구에 부응하기 위하여 본 논문은 기존의 수질기준을 최소비용으로 달성하는 비용 효과적인 방식을 시스템 최적화 분석 기법에 접목하는 모델을 구축하고 있다. 이 모델은 우리 나라에 두드러진 수문학적 특징, 즉 자정능력상의 계절적 차이가 지역적 특성과 오염 처리 기술상의 다양함, 그리고 기존의 법적 제도적 특정들과 어떻게 연결되어 얼마나 처리 비용상의 절약을 유도해 낼 수 있는지에 관한 정책정보를 제공해 줄 수 있게 고안되었다. 연구의 결과치에 의하면, 표적 지천상의 지역적 안배와 처리 공정상의 기술-비용적 차이를 고려하고 비갈수기에 처리시설을 신축적으로 운영할 경우 한강 수계에서 BOD 부하량 삭감비용은 상당한 정도( 예로, 1992년 물가수준에서 매일 3,000만 원 이상) 절감 가능한 것으로 나타나고 있다.

정보들을 잘 다루는 소수의 인재들만으로도 국가의 경제적 부가가치가 크게 높아지고 있는 지금, 이러한 변화에 맞추어 고급 두뇌인력을 배출하는 영재교육에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 특히 수학, 과학영재에 관한 연구는 무수히 많이 이루어져 있으나 정작 21세기 정보화 사회를 이끌어갈 정보영재에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 그러므로 현재 우리나라 정보영재교육에서 무엇보다 시급한 것은 정보영재들의 인지적 정의적 특성에 대한 실증적인 자료의 분석과 이에 대한 연구이다. 그렇다면 정보영재들의 특성은 실제로 어떠할까 라는 의문이 제기된다. 영재관련 연구 중 많이 인용되며 정의적 요소가 포함된 Renzulli(1978)의 삼원모델(Three-ring model)을 보면 영재의 특성을 극단적으로 높을 필요는 없는 '평균 이상의 능력', '높은 창의성', '높은 과제 집착력'으로 보고 있다. 본 고에서는 정보영재들의 특성을 Renzulli(1978)의 삼원모델(Three-ring model)에 의거하여 두 가지 관점에서 분석해 보았다. 첫째, 정보영재집단의 특성은 일반학생집단과 비교해 보았을 때 어떠한 점이 다른가? 둘째, 일반영재집단과 정보영재집단을 비교해 보았을 때 어떠한 차이점이 있는가? 본 고에서 분석 제시되는 연구결과들은 정보영재성을 정의하고, 그에 따른 판별도구 및 정보영재교육프로그램 개발을 위한 실증적 자료가 되어 우리나라 실정에 부합하는 정보영재교육을 수립해 나가는 데에 주춧돌이 될 것이다.

The object of the study is to examine the change of social-economic structure and poverty-shape to escape poverty. In Korea, the working poor have been increased by flexibility and division of labor market since the economic crisis in 1997, and are faced with hard conditions due to the vulnerable welfare system. Especially the workers who engage in irregular jobs were increased by restructure of labor market. Besides they are in unstable employment terms such as low payment, low-skill and exclusion from welfare-benefit. Many small independent businessmen are also in danger of poverty for enterprises trend to move abroad by globalization. Poverty policy in our country was focused on the absolute poor class that has relation with old age, unemployment, disable, disease etc, so they were the object of welfare policy. The poverties, however, are increasing rapidly after the economic crisis, and they work so hard but are still poor, that is, participation in labor market doesn't become an element to escape poverty. Thus the emergence of new poverties whose core consists of the working poor becomes to need new poverty policy. The study is to survey change of their economic conditions, their welfare conditions, their experiences and responses of social dangers after the economic crisis, then to explore the policy to escape poverty. As the result of the study, it shows that the working poor experienced many kinds of social dangers like unemployment, decrease of income etc. In their welfare conditions as their responses to the social dangers, the benefit of social insurance, enterprise welfare like legal retirement pay and paid leave and private welfare such as private pension and insurance are low. The working poor are faced with social dangers, moreover, they don't have skill or education for adapting themselves to information society. The study says that it needs variable policies for the working poor to escape poverty, and suggests payment & tax policies as stable income policy, occupational discipline and skill-education for promoting the quality of employment, moreover, social insurance as expansion of social welfare policy and housing & education policies whose objects are the working poor.

This paper examine the gender-poverty gap and the feminization of poverty in Korea with using data from the National Survey Household Income & Expenditure(1996, 2000) and the Urban Survey Household Income & Expenditure(1996-2002) by Korea National Statistical Office. The poverty rate in 2000 was 16.9 percent for female-head families and 7.9 percent for male-head families, which means that female-head families were 2.6 times more likely to be poor than male-head families. With examining impact of economic crisis in 1998 on gender-poverty gap, it show that both the poverty rate of female-head and male-head increase radically in peak of economic crisis, while, in the stage of recovering economy, the poverty rate of male-head families recovered mostly the level before economic crisis, but that of female-head families recover only the 2/3 level before and the 1/3 remain still under poverty. Thus gender-poverty gap appeared bigger during passing through economic crisis. With analyzing on influence factors of poverty, it appear that poverty is influenced by gender itself as well as education level, working condition which is reflected substantially characteristics of gender. Such an analysis results mean that the considering gender dimension is necessary to resolve poverty fundamentally because gender is a point intersection among family, labour market, and social security. Therefore it appears certain that to develop and adopt of women-friendly social policy is effective approach, which could resolve poverty and social problems related to social rights.

The named source kept in all place names alludes to the close relationship between place name and its place while it also becomes a fundamental condition for geographical research on place names. Meanwhile, the named source may be recognized differently according to who the social subjects producing and changing place names Life. Place names represent and constitute the identity and the ideology of the diverse social subjects. This aspect is related to cultural politics concerned with conflicts and contestation among different social subjects over the meaning of place names. Particularly, the Gongju-Mok Jingwan Area in the Korean peninsula has long history and geopolitical location as a borderland and a buffer zone. As a result, it has provided many conditions for cultural diversity and power relations, both of which have caused social subjects to contest their social power across space and time, and has led to produce the several types in the changes of place names. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate the types according to the named source, especially that of the forepart of place names morpheme, and those cultural-political meanings. These place names are classified into three large groups, such as the physical place names, the social place names, and the economic place names. These types of place names have represented the place identity and the ideology of diverse social subjects, and also accompanied the changes by power relations between themselves.

The present study aims to investigate the effects of bicultural characteristics and social capital on psychological adaptations such as depression and self-esteem. A survey was conducted on 295 foreign-born mothers and their 305 children, ranging from third to sixth grade in elementary school up to seventh to ninth grade in middle school, residing in South Korea's seven major cities, including the city of Seoul. The results of this research are the following: 1) With regards to factors that influence depression among children in a multicultural family, less support from a friend leads to a larger exposure to multicultural programs. Also, the lower the perceived income level of his or her family, greater is the state of the child's depression. 2) Significant factors that influence self-esteem for multicultural children are friends' support, level of mothers' Korean language proficiency, teachers' support, and numbers of multicultural programs. Two implications may be addressed from this study. One is the need to consider bicultural characteristics and social capital to enhance psychological adaptability for children raised in multicultural families. Another is to apply social support characteristics such as friends' and teachers' support to multicultural programs.

In this study, a transnational social space which emerges in a rural village of the northern Vietnam called 'Korean Village' is analyzed. The immigrant women of whom the spouses are Korean were forming transnational network with family members through which frequent and active communications took place. At the same time materialistic exchanges were occurring by means of remittance. Like most rural areas where up-to-date life patterns co-exist with outdated ones, the studied region was turning into a transnational social space under the influence of indigenous locallity, culture and other economic factors. Women were found to play a virtual role as resonator in practicing the transnational activity of migration. With the migration routes getting more and more solidified, the evolution of the transnational social space and the role of resonator, the form of transnational migration which makes involved young women look like a sacrifice is ceaselessly expanding around a specific region. This is noticeable because a rural village seemingly far away from internationalization is not only becoming the transnational social space but also a stage of its evolution.

'Creative Economy' has been announced as the new paradigm of socio-economic development strategy of newly elected President Geun-Hye Park's administration. By explicitly defining people as a major player in creative activity, it seems to depart from expert-driven or science & technology-focused development paradigms of previous administrations. Yet, its interpretation and operation in terms of government policy does not seem to show any differences. This study aims to explicate the nature of Creative Economy as a development paradigm by clarifying the differences between people's creativity and that of scientists and engineers through extensive literature review. People can contribute to the creative activity not just as users but also as living persons who make everyday yet independent choices based on their humanistic, philosophical, ethical and experiential capabilities which are clearly different from the sources of scientists' & engineers' creativity. People's creative activity does involve value judgement about life and can often accelerate the system innovation or transition by changing consumer behaviour and lifestyle, and hence destruct technological lock-in user lock-in of the existing system. People's creativity can thus present 'User/Field-driven Innovation Paradigm which clearly differs from existing expert- or science & technology-driven innovation paradigm. The Creative Economy with focus on people's creativity therefore faces new socio-economic development challenges of fulfilling the User/Field-driven Innovation Paradigm.

Examining the experiences of different generations, this study assesses the subjective well-being(SWB) from eudaemonic perspective. Data was drawn from a survey of 1,214 adults in Korea. This research conducted descriptive statistics and multivariate regression analysis. Results show that even assessed from eudaemonic approach, material factors are still essential in explaining the variation of SWB. People in industrialization generation are less happy than other generations. Satisfaction with family and different types of social participation activities are related to SWB. This study suggests needs for focused attention on the factors affecting SWB in each generation.
