In this paper, we study on an 'e-Atlas of Society & Culture(e-ASC)', to develop and implement educational courseware for marriage immigrant women, to adapt Korean society. The 'e-ASC' can help cultural adaptation, such as the understanding of Korean people's common values and behaviors and can likewise provide opportunities to contribute to Korean society, for marriage immigrant women living in Korea. E-cultural map is a useful tool for providing educational experiences and sharing a sociocultural homogeneity, using three dimensional space, for both immigrants and residents. The 'e-Atlas of Society & Culture', suggested in this paper, using the notion of an E-cultural map, has a strong point. That is to say, the immigrants have contextual limitations about Korea and Korean culture, caused by some particular events in their motherland. This atlas provides an opportunity to overcome this contextual limitations and to help understand and adapt to Korean society for these immigrants. This 'e-Atlas of Society & Culture' can be an efficient educational tool for immigrants and can help marriage immigrant women understand and adapt Korean social and cultural phenomena. They might have contextual limitations about these phenomena in their motherland.

본 연구의 목적은 정기시장을 이용하는 이동 상인과 소비자의 특성을 분석하여, 정기시장의 중심지 기능과 공간 구조를 이해하려는 것이다. 충청북도 영동군 지역을 사례로 해서 8개의 정기시장을 이용하는 상인에 대한 면접 조사와 소비자에 대한 설문 조사를 통해서 자료를 수집하였다. 정기시장의 연구는 경제-입지적 접근 방법이나 사회-문화적 접근 방법으로 행해지지만, 정기시장의 기능을 상인과 소비자의 두 측면에서 모두 고려할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서 고차위 중심지에 위치한 정기시장은 규모가 커진 반면, 저차위 중심지에 위치한 정기시장은 쇠퇴하고 있는 것이 확인되었다. 정기시장을 유지시켜 왔던 사회적 관성과 비교 우위는 농촌의 근대화 과정에서 점차 사라지고 있으며, 이러한 사회경제적 변화가 정기시장을 쇠퇴시키고 있다.

Digital games have become a major part of the modern popular culture, but little attention has been paid to understanding the textuality of games and what the game texts have the cultural meanings. As the games develop, however, the academic and journalistic game critiques and reviews that try to understand and to deconstruct the game texts are on the rise. This study explores how the game criticism characterizes the game texts, creates and shapes the understanding of games. The finding shows that game criticism is rich and varied in terms of themes and approaches covered, more generally, games criticism can also help preserve game history by focusing on the distinctive game textuality, forms and meanings, and by contextualizing the links and cultural meanings that exist between games and between games and the cultural context.

미래사회의 농업-농촌은 다양성과 복합성을 지닌 도시화된 형태로의 변화를 예견해 볼 수 있다. 이는 인력개발, 기술개발, 시설개발, 문화개발 및 환경개발 및 환경개발 등 그 영역과 요구 또한 구체화되고 다양화되는 추세에 비추어 볼 수 있다. 이 연구는 연구자의 관점(qualitative approach)에서 농업-농촌사회 개발 전문가들의 개발 진행과 그 영역들은 무엇이며 어느 영역들에 개발비중을 두었는 지를 알아 보는 데 있었다. 11명의 농업 및 농촌 지역 개발 전문가들의 개발관점은 그 중요성과 영역의 다양성에서 공통점과 차이점이 있었다. 즉, 인력개발과 경제개발 영역에서 공통점으로 보였으며, 환경영역 및 문화영역에서 다소의 차이가 있었다. 이제 농업-농촌개발은 "instead of"의 개발접근이 지양되면서 "as well as"의 다각적 접근(multidisciplinary approach)이어야 한다. 또한, 개발의 개념은 성장(growth)이 아닌 유지(keeping)와 진행(process)의 차원에서 이해되어야 한다.

Multiculuralism becomes the presentive term of Korea. And school is interested in multicutural education very much. The reason for this is connected to the fact of increasing intermarriages, immigrant laborers, and their children. So, the academic world is producing various research papers and public institution is proposing and practicing several policies. Particularly multicultural education is recognized as the very important intervening strategy on multicutral society and studied. The purpose of this paper is to suggest the ideas of teaching-learning experience selection for multicutural education in Korea. So the study contents of this paper are as follows ; First, it is to analyze the concepts of multicultural education and its' research trends. Second, it is to review the prior models of theorizing multicultural education and the models of curriculum development and teaching design. Finally, it is to inquiry the model of teaching-learning experience selection for multicutural education. Above all, we think that it is necessary to develop the model of multicutural teaching-learning experience selection classified by objects involved in multicutural education.

급격한 고령화 시대에 노년층의 사회참여욕구가 확대되고 있으나 어떻게 해야 하는지를 모르고 있어 지역사회의 사회참여 프로그램에 대한 인지도가 매우 낮고 제도나 프로그램에 대한 접근성이 제한적인 실정이다. 가족기능이 해체된 노인을 대상으로 노후 생활 지원욕구에 발맞춰 경제적지원, 취업지원, 의료지원, 여가지원 등 각종 복지 서비스를 제공함으로써 보편적이고 일상적인 생활을 영위하도록 지원하고자 많은 노력을 하고는 있으나 이를 체계적으로 실시할 수 있는 모델이 부족한 것이 현실이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 노인들의 역할 및 지위 상실로 인하여 가정에서 고립된 생활을 하는 노인을 대상으로 복지 전문가가 현장에서 비교적 손쉽게 적용할 수 있는 체계화된 모델을 제안함으로 생활스트레스 감소, 인지기능 향상, 우울증 감소, 생활만족도를 향상시키고 노인여가 문화에 대한 건전성 확산을 통해 건강한 노후생활을 영위하게 하며 문화생활 지원을 통해 사회적 비용 부담 경감을 도모함과 동시에 자존감의 고취 및 자율성을 획득하고 자아성취감과 만족감을 느끼게 하는데 있다.

The purpose of this study was to identify the moderated effects of multicultural contact experience on the relationship between social distance and multicultural acceptability among nursing students. The sample for this study consisted of 174 nursing students from four universities located in Korea. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, $Scheff{\acute{e}}$ test, Pearson correlation and hierarchical multiple regression with SPSS/WIN 23.0. It was found that: (a) multicultural acceptability had a negative correlation with social distance(r=-.61, p<.001), whereas a positive correlation was observed with experience of multicultural contact(r=.24, p=.002); (b) the interaction effect by multicultural contact experience and social distance had a significant influence on the multicultural acceptability(${\beta}=-.18$, p=.003); (c) experience of multicultural contact moderated the relationship between social distance and multicultural acceptability(${\Delta}R^2=0.30$, p=.003). Results of the study suggest that the greater the experience of multicultural contact, the greater the negative effect of social distance on multicultural acceptability. Therefore, to increase the multicultural acceptability of nursing students, it is important to encourage the positive experiences of multicultural contact and thus reduce social distance.

This article is the critical review of the methods and assumptions with which the Korean archaeologists have tried to approach to the Bronze age society. It was not until the 1980s' that there had been any attempt to define the relevant units for the study of past societies. Before the archaeological records of megalithic builders in the Bronze age began to be analyzed to find out the general traits of chiefdom society, Korean archaeologists had described the variations in the cultural, rather than the social, entities. From the 1990s' , some scholars have attempted to reconstruct the scale and organization of the social groups and explain the growth of polities in evolutionary view, analyzing the hierarchical distributions of settlement data. In the concluding remarks of the review, I would like to indicate the some problems in the conceptualization of the material culture patterning in the regional and/or inter-regional level. First, the conceptual problem which appeared when the Bronze archaeologists define the distribution of artifact assemblages, composed of the specific artifact traits , beyond the instrumental categories that are efficient for the establishments of regional chronologies. It is evidently erroneous conceptualization that we define the artifact assemblages as the socio-cultual entities which came into being in specific time and place, geographically expanded, and finally disappeared based on the view of essentialism. Second, the interpretative problems about wide distributions of certain bronze artifacts must be indicated. I would like to suggest that the wide distributions of the specific bronze dagger or mirror types should be explained not by the cultural area concept related to the ethnicity assumptions, but by the world system or the inter-regional interaction models.

비만은 단순한 신체적 원인 뿐 아니라 심리적, 사회적, 문화적 문제가 복합되어 있다. 따라서, 의료적 측면에 있어서도 전인적 접근이 강조되어야 하나 서양의 치료는 주로 신체적인 문제에 집중한다. 한의학은 몸과 마음을 따로 보지 않는 전인적인 의학이며 비만과 같은 질환을 접근하는데 강점을 갖는다. 지금까지 비만환자를 위한 한의학의 전인적 접근, 즉 신체 뿐아니라 체계적으로 심리적인 접근을 하려는 노력은 많았으나 보고된 연구 성과가 드물었다. 양성치료는 동양철학과 한의학에 근거하여 비만환자를 위해 개발된 전인적 상담프로그램이다. 기존에 발표된 양성치료에 관한 두 논문에서는 이론적 배경과 임상적 효과에 대한 보고를 하였다면, 본 논문에서는 실제 환자의 사례를 통해 실제 치료의 전개와 역동을 서술하였다.

The percentage of divorce has increased rapidly even in Korea where traditionally attaches great importance to a family. However most counselors apply counseling theories and approaches developed in the West when they do counseling for Korean couple. In fact, the culture of Korea carries characteristics of relationism under the Oriental religion like Shamanism, Buddhism, and Confucianism. Therefore it is not easy to gain sufficient counseling effect in Korea with such major counseling approaches. The Korean takes a serious view of family relations between father and son, Therefore the Koran society carries on a family line, devotes their lives to the cause of education, gies precedence to the elder. In such a cultural area, it would be quite helpful for counselors to focus their attention on various roles of each rather than focus on their conflict of intimacy itself.
