The essential policy of suicide prevention is to continuously manage and treat suicide attempted people through data base related to suicide retry rate and follow-up study report. In Korea, only few people are allowed to follow-up by the Personal Information Protection Act. As a result, the research participation rate and the service participation rate are rather low, so that the research participants is limited to a part of the suicide attempted people. Therefore, the policy proposals to be improved in the Ministry of Health and Welfare Act were examined comparatively in order to increase the practical utilization of the suicide prevention about Article 14 and Article 20 of the Suicide Prevention Act. As a criterion for policy improvement, measures for non-discrimination of information to be considered in terms of technical and ethical dimensions and non-profit research and medical information for medical purposes were suggested. In addition to the severity of the suicide, the suicide risk was assessed and the criteria for the objective assessment of the follow-up observation were considered in consideration of the severity of the suicide.

This paper examines the American Civil Liberties Union(ACLU)'s recent legal challenge on patents held by Myriad Genetics on two genes (BRCA1 and BRCA2) associated with a high risk of breast and ovarian cancer. Instead of analyzing the ACLU's objections to the BRCA patents in terms of its legal technicalities and normative ethical principles, this paper seeks to situate this legal case in the broader historical context of the shifting understanding of the relationship between private ownership, economic development, and the public interest in academic sciences. This paper first briefly chronicles a series of scientific developments and key legal decisions involving patenting of life forms, including genetically engineered micro-organisms animals and biological materials of human origins like cell cultures and genes, that led to the US Patent and Trademark Office(USPTO)'s official guidelines on human gene patenting in 2001. At another level, this paper analyzes the expansion of the scope of intellectual property rights in the life sciences in terms of shifting economic and legal assumptions about public knowledge and its role for economic development in the 1970s. I then show how these economic, legal, and ethical ideas that linked private ownership and the public interest have been challenged from the 1990s, calling for revisions in intellectual property laws regarding a wide array of life forms. The tragedy of the anticommons in human gene patenting, according to ACLU, has severely undermined creative scientific activities, medical innovations, access to health care and rights to life among cancer patient groups. ACLU's objection to human gene patenting on several US-constitutional grounds in turn suggests issues regarding intellectual property are critically linked to vital issues pertinent to the creative communities in arts and sciences, such as free exchange of ideas, censorship and monopoly, and free expression and piracy etc.

In February 2014 Korean Bar Association has amended Professional Ethics Code as to stipulate attorney's duty to protect personal information.

Moreover, duty to protect personal information deals with not only disclosure and use of information, which confidentiality rules is about, but also collection and retention process, access to and correction and care of information and even destruction of information. Amid unprecedented theft of personal data in several national banks and other serious leakage reported recently, this paper is going to contemplate the scope and application of the duty to protect personal information with hope to contribute to starting discussion on it.

In the beginning of the 21st century, UNESCO (The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) thinks the key to the battle is "morality," and thus proposes the norm of ethic, morals and values. Not only have countries all over the world responded to the proposal, but we in Taiwan are also involved in the campaign, hoping through the new movement, the deviant values are to be modified. "Doctrine of the mean" is the best essence in Confucianism when it comes to the idea of government ruling by a virtuous king, who possesses sincerity, a crucial element to inspire better character. Moral teachings nowadays emphasize the fact that a person should own ethic virtue and behave accordingly. Only via constant practice and training can people obtain sincerity and virtues in the learning process, in which Confucianists rely mostly on self-discipline while more tactics are applied to modern education.

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the industrial security policies in Germany and to look for the implication for the development of korean industrial security. Due to highly developed economy and industrial technology, Germany has become the main stage for the industrial espionage for a long time. In Germany industrial espionage is classified into two categories; Economy-espionage and Competition-espionage. While economy-espionage is related to the Espionage of foreign intelligence agencies, Competition-espionage means the act of espionage, that is implemented by the private sector. When it comes to economy-espionage, prevention of economy-espionage is the duty of the State, because it threat the national interest. Otherwise, the private sector has to take the responsibility of prevention of competition-espionage. It goes without saying that, the state has to investigate the crime, when espionage happens. But Prevention is more important than investigation in this regard. For the realization of Public-Private-Partnership, the private sector should be the genuine counterpart of the Public through the sharing responsibility of industrial-espionage prevention. Another talking point this paper suggest, is the national ethic in connection with economy-espionage. The State could be not only a actor of espionage prevention, but also a perpetrator. The economy-espionage for the purpose of national interest would not be justified, unless it has nothing to do with national security.

This paper aims to suggest a policy for biological resource based on a comprehensive understanding on biological resources. Biological resources are different from traditionally recognized viable organisms (Biodiversity) in ecosystems. Biological resources are culturable and replicable resources of living organisms such as tissues, cells and genes. Moreover, biological resources include human-derived biological materials. Biological resources is not simply a matter of science and technology. Biological resources should be dealt with as national resources. There are many international issues regarding biological resources, such as intellectual property rights (IPRs), safety on handling and distribution, material transfer agreements (MTAs) for mutual benefits and biological standards. Ethical debates are also being raised because biological resources are related with human-derived biological materials. Every nation has tendency to adopt its government policies to strengthen its sovereignty on biological resources and international cooperation. In addition, international linkages are essential for providing enhanced worldwide accessibility to biological resources. Japan has shown several international initiatives in the field of biological resources. Korea has just begun to design appropriate policies for the use and R&D of biological resources. Therefore, this paper suggests the following needs: 1) policy at the national level beyond the interests of researchers, 2) inter-ministerial coordination across government ministries, 3) expansion of scope and size of each BRC (Biological Resource Centers), and 4) building networks and systems such as national information center, representative centers by field, and each BRC.
