This paper aims to analyse the historical-cultural sources of Azerbaijani national identity through the aspects of the Persian, the Turkish and the Russian influences, and to illuminate its complex characteristics. Then it will be examined the impact and consequences that the Azerbaijani identity exerted on its foreign policy. In the modern world, identities are formed and represented within a variety of shifting social, political, economic, cultural, and discursive contexts. Such understandings can have exclusionary consequences, particularly in pluralistic environments. Since its independence, the PFA government resorted to the arguments of ethnic origin and Azerbaijan's Turkishness to achieve its goals. Domestically, the failure of the ethnicity-based foreign policy was so great that even Azerbaijani Kurds, who under the Soviets had been virtually absorbed into the Azeri population, felt alienated and betrayed. Internationally, Azerbaijan turned Russia and Iran against itself and reduced bargaining power of Turkey since the latter grew increasingly concerned not to exacerbate its relations with Russia.

This paper aims to analyze the production efficiency in Korea's ten service sectors using DEA and its determinants utilizing a truncated-Tobit regression model and a censored-Tobit regression model in 2010-2019. This paper found: First, the Korean service sector's production efficiency in general has been significantly low and polarized. Especially, the inefficiency resulted from the scale inefficiency in the 'sewerage waste management industry.' Second, in the determinants analysis, the results show the positive effect of the investment and R&D expenses on technical efficiency, while FDI and lobbying expenses illustrate the negative impact. Moreover, it seems that the larger the industry, the higher the efficiency. Thus, the future Korean government's economic policy for the service sectors requires a mixed and integrated policy of the macroeconomic aspect such as active investment and R&D activities with microeconomic aspect including a convergence of FDI and human capital.

Since the 1990s, the notion of governance has been introduced as an alternative way of understanding the new trend of public administration. Then, it was followed by the emergence of the concept, e-governance (electronic governance) with the development of information and communication technologies. E-governance means an approach to understanding how to manage state affairs. It emphasizes the notion of governance where various actors (government-market-civil society, etc.) adjust and cooperate through mutual collaborative network, not a unilateral decision-making form of government, in order to solve common problems. It also carries the notion of 'electronic' in the sense that it operates on the basis of utilizing information and communication technology (ICT). This study systematically attempts to analyze research trends and methodologies of e-governance in major Korean journals and proceedings in the field of public administration and policy studies over the last 15 years. Some of the findings are worth noting: first, e-governance studies in Korea are in large measure concentrated on the government-centered perspective. Also, past studies tend to focus on problem-solving by suggesting policy alternatives. Past studies, thus, seem to pay relatively less attention to explanation of the phenomena through rigorous analysis. Under the circumstances, this review is expected to shed light on some of conceptual or methodological issues related e-governance studies, thus, to provide significant implications for future research of e-governance.

T-50 exportation to Indonesia embodied an objective of governmental policy and became a catalyst accelerating the exportation of domestic defense industries. Defense industry exportation is recognized as a new growth engine creating economic interests and it became an important policy of the government. This study will suggest an effective direction for the support policy of the defense industry exportation through analysis on factors behind the success of the T-50 exportation to indonesia in the view of policy network. Policy network theory has its efficacy and workability in analyzing what kind of results are yielded from each policy actor's attributes and their interaction during the execution and establishment of the support policy for the defense exportation. The type of policy network of the T-50 exportation to Indonesia was a policy community. Many governmental ministries, defense industry which is the group of interest, and experts from the research institutes have established the Korea Defense Trade Support Center(KODITS) for accomplishing common policy goal with mutually shared sentiment, and sought for a strategy for the success of the defense industry exportation having official and unofficial meeting centering around the KODITS. Although there were oppositions and conflicts among major actors, though forming a cooperative relationship among majority of the actors, policy-wise decision making for the exportation of the T-50 to Indonesia was efficiently carried out. The cooperative relationship was the key in the success of the T-50 exportation. Considering that the policy community from cooperative mutual interaction is efficient in reaching the goal of the defense industry exportation support policy, this study suggests operating government-wise temporary Task Force(TF) to succeed in big exportation projects such as the T-X exportation to the U.S. In addition, institutional and procedural supplementation such as regular meetings among the head of related governmental ministries and etc. are required in order to enhance the mutually cooperative relationship withing the TF.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the determinants of public attitudes toward welfare spending in relation with the perception of welfare level. Data from the national survey of 'the SSK Good Government Research Unit' are used to perform a logistic regression analysis of the association between welfare attitudes and government perceptions, political orientations, and socio-economic backgrounds. The most prominent finding is that the determinants of welfare attitudes differ markedly between the two different groups of welfare perception. The empirical results say that persons living in a corrupt government tend to prefer welfare spendings despite having low level of welfare, and persons living in a unjust government tend to prefer welfare expansion because welfare level must be low. Persons living in a government of great capacity tend to have positive attitudes to welfare spending despite having a high level of welfare, whereas persons living in a government of less capacity tend to have negative attitudes to welfare expansion because the level of welfare is too high beyond government capacity. This distinction between the two perceptions of welfare level provides a systemic understanding of public attitudes toward welfare spending.

This study is about Taiwanese Official Development Assistance. This study explains the history, the institution, the policies and several major determinants which affect distribution of Taiwanese ODA. Taiwanese ODA shows several features. State survival, recognition from the international society and competition with China have been main goals of Taiwanese ODA. In addition, the Taiwanese government has tried to promote economic interests in both trade and investment by giving ODAs and by linking them with foreign economic policies. Taiwanese ODA policy has gradually changed from political conerns to more acceptance of international ODA norms and institutions. Especially in the period of MDGs and SDGs, the Taiwanese government has tried to comply with existing and newly developing international ODA norms. This study shows on 'exceptional' case of non OECD-DAC member country's ODA policies. In the future, more studies which compare similarities and differences of OECD DAC members' and non-members' ODA policies will be needed. Based upon more studies, we may find general goals and policies pursued by donor countries.

Land Use Information is the key of the rational decision in urban and regional planning. Although the local and central governments have data related to land use, urban and regional planners can gather the land use information in difficulty. For use the data which the governments have made, they should formally show their needs and applications, On this background, this study try to show the demands of such information for urban planning using questionnaire. Analyzing the result, it can present the hardness of gathering land use information, the high demands, and the needs of the each data field.

최근 이상홍수나 가뭄과 같은 물 관련 재해의 발생빈도가 높아지고, 산업 고도화, 인구증가와 같은 원인에 의해 장 단기적 물 부족 현상이 우려되면서 수자원 사업에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 대부분의 수자원 사업은 공공성이 매우 크기 때문에 대규모 정부예산의 투입을 필요로 하고 있으나, 수자원사업의 특성상 사업의 공공성에 반하여 사업 시행에 따른 여러 경제적, 정책적 이해관계가 난립하여 사업 시행에 어려움이 따르고 있는 것이 실정이다. 이에 따라 '수자원(댐)부문사업의 예비타당성조사 표준지침 연구-제3판'에서는 수자원 사업의 타당성 평가를 위해 크게 경제성분석과 정책적분석의 두 부문으로 접근하고 있으며, 최종적으로 다기준의사결정기법 중 하나인 AHP기법을 이용하여 결정함으로써 수자원 사업의 가치 평가에 대한 이해를 돕고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지난 1999년부터 2006년까지 수행된 수자원분야 및 타분야의 사례를 바탕으로 수자원사업 예비타당성조사의 실태를 파악함으로써 현재 지적되고 있는 문제점을 고찰하고 그에 따른 해결방향을 제시하고자 하였다.

The growing socio-economic effect caused by science and technology requires public to participate in policy-making process, which makes government to boost public understanding of science(PUS). Government has also exerted to construct infra for PUS. However results are not so meaningful. The government-funded science museum has mainly provided the program for students. Besides, science broadcasting channel has recorded the worst viewing rate. Meanwhile, some of the private sector-manufactured contents have attracted public attention in recent years, which is realized by considering elements such as an interesting topic selection, use of outside experts, two-way communication system, level adjusting for public through flexible running system. This study analyze podcast based program, face to face lectures, display contents by private industry, fab lab etc. on the base of the reciprocal PUS model to sort out the reason they have successful results. Futhermore, it argues that government should intensify support for private sector and create synergy effect by cultivate collaboration system between government and private sector to enhance the efficiency of PUS and offers public policy to realize the plan.
