Korean society suffers from severe divisions represented by bi-polarization and collapse of the middle class. Intensive demanding on expanding social welfare budget has emerged in accordance with such a dramatic shift. Social consensus moving toward well-financed welfare policy, however, happens to meet political opposition supported by the discourse of fiscal soundness. This paper thus pays particular attention to deciphering the discursive structure in way of understanding how discourses bring public policy into play. For this purpose, news articles about fiscal soundness collected from 8 national newspapers have been analyzed in terms of frame, attitude, perspective and world view. Research results show, first of all, that there exist persistent competition between two frames identified as 'reduced tax with fiscal discipline' and 'increased tax with welfare money.' While the 'reduced tax' frame favors in maintaining tax cut at the expense of welfare budjet, the frame of 'increased tax' supports such arguments as the flexible employment of fiscal soundness and prosperity of national community helped by widening tax revenues. Also did these frames include a number of sub-frames like welfare populism, partisan politics, trickle down effect, tax bonanza for the rich, universal welfare and market over-reactions in order to bolster its logical authority. Media's active taking a part in penetrating supportive frames in line with political stance was found as well. Taking into account both the discursive structure upheld by frames and politics materialized by the media, the authors argue that public policies should be considered more as discourse than fixed reality. Shedding additional light on understanding the interplay among public opinion, policies and media discourse is of another importance for further study.

This study suggests both modification reserve ratio and cover rate for expenditure as new finance evaluation indicators. Firstly, modification reserve ratio is an evaluation indicator which shows how long can the accumulated reserves at the beginning of the year afford future benefit expenditure. Modification reserve ratio has an advantage both to present what the scale of annual accumulated reserves means and to know the exhaustion speed of accumulated fund through analyzing the trend of modification fund ratio. Secondly, this research classifies resources for expenditures as premium income and reserves, thereafter, presents cover rate for expenditure as finance evaluation indicator. We can know how premium income and reserves can cover future expenditure during the evaluation period, and how deficient are resources through these indices. The researcher anticipates this research to contribute to policy researches for financial stabilization of the national pension scheme.

세선화 알고리즘의 간접 기법으로 제시된 자기구성 특징 그래프(Self-Organizing feature Graph : SOG) 기법은 안정된 세선화 결과를 가지는 장점이 있으나 학습 알고리즘에서 전체 노드를 재정돈하는 과정이 내포되어 있다. 본 본문에서는 학습 알고리즘의 재정돈 과정을 대신하는 점증적 정돈기법을 제안하고 이 기법을 세선화 알고리즘에 결합하여 실험하고 분석하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 기존의 SO를 적용한 결과와 같은 우수한 세선화 결과를 얻으며 학습시간은 O((logM)$^3$)인 복잡도를 가진다.

The time-lag effect of the policy was analyzed focusing on the financial subsidies which are the incentive for attracting the foreign direct investment for the Korean industries from 2007 to 2012. The analysis results show that Korea's policy for attracting the foreign direct investment has the time leg of 2 or 3 years after the implementation of the policy. If the goal is to attract the foreign investment or introduce the advanced industrial technologies, the tax reduction system would be better. However, if the goal is to get the short term effects such as job creation or regional development, the direct subsidy or the financial support (financing) or the lexicographic characteristics of the policy for foreign investment would be more effective for attracting the foreign investment. Accordingly, the Korea's policy for attracting the foreign direct investment should be focused on the realistic policies such as direct subsidies or financial support (financing) rather than the tax reduction system.

The government has supported the innovation of private firms by intervening the market for various purposes, such as preventing market failure, alleviating information asymmetry, and allocating resources efficiently. Although the government's R&D budget increased rapidly in the 2000s, it is not clear whether the government intervention has made desirable impact on the market. To address this, the current study attempts to explore this issue by doing a systematic literature review on foreign and domestic papers in an integrated way. In total, 168 studies are analyzed using contents analysis approach and various lens, such as policy additionality, policy tools, firm size, unit of analysis, data and method, are adopted for analysis. Overlapping policy target, time lag between government intervention and policy effects, non-linearity of financial supports, interference between different polices, and out-dated R&D tax incentive system are reported as factors hampering the effect of the government intervention. Many policy prescriptions, such as program evaluation indices reflecting behavioral additionality, an introduction of policy mix and evidence-based policy using machine learning, are suggested to improve these hurdles.

This study shows that one of the reasons behind the recent increase in international students at private universities in the Seoul metropolitan area is the financial conditions of universities that have deteriorated under the governmental regulation on college enrollment and tuition for domestic students. We provide a theoretical framework showing the possibility that universities try to avoid the regulation by admitting international students who are not subject to the regulation. Our empirical analysis of four-year private universities during 2008-2019 reveals that private universities in Seoul tend to increase the share of international students when the financial situation deteriorates.

In spite of proliferating E-business success stories, many executives urge that they have not realized the return expected from investments in Internet-based E-business systems, Most of businesses tend to focus on immediate financial payoffs and overlook the improvements in information capabilities and business performance, The purpose of the research is to investigate the effects of Internet-based E-business systems on organizations' information capabilities, business performance, and financial performance, and to illustrate the roles and values of the systems in achieving business goals. Findings illustrate that when an organization's information capabilities are enhanced by Internet-based E-business systems, business performance tends to improve. In addition, the study implies that the business performance improvement may create consumer benefits, which would be indispensable factors to make a profit.

This study examined whether there is a correlation between the degree of the financial independence and the establishment and operation of public libraries in 25 local governments in Seoul. It was revealed that there is an inverse correlation between them. According to the results, differently than expected, the local governments with low degree of financial independence generally built and operate more public libraries and assign more library budgets than the local governments with high degree of financial independence. It can be concluded that the local governments with low degree of financial independence show more interest in building and operating public libraries.

국가회계 전산화는 자료의 가시성(visibility)을 약화시키고 내부통제의 위험을 증가시키는 등 감사환경을 변화시키고 있다. 정부재정규모의 증가로 거래건수가 증가하고, 결산기간 단축, 자금 전자이체, 정부구매 카드 도입 등 정보화에 따라 회계처리방법이 변화되고 있어 이에 대응할 수 있는 전산감사기법 개발이 필요하다. 전산감사기법은 감사자의 감사능력을 향상시켜 생산성과 감사품질을 향상시키고, 내부통제 확인, 회계부정에 대한 예방기능을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 외부감사인(감사원)이 회계감사에 활용할 수 있도록 국가재정정보시스템 등 정부회계 관련 정보시스템으로부터 수집할 수 있는 자료를 대상으로 회계 감사 시나리오작성 및 검증, 데이터수집, 전산분석기법의 적용을 통한 감사모듈 개발방법을 제안한다.
