Nowadays various public data have been serviced to the public. Through the opening of public data, the transparency and effectiveness of public policy developed by governments are increased and users can lead to the growth of industry related to public data. Since end-users of using public data are citizens, it is very important for everyone to figure out the meaning of public data using proper visualization techniques. In this work, to indicate the significance of widespread public data, we consider UN voting record as public data in which many people may be interested. In general, it has high utilization value by diplomatic and educational purposes, and is available in public. If we use proper data mining and visualization algorithms, we can get an insight regarding the voting patterns of UN members. To visualize, it is necessary to measure the voting similarity values among UN members and then a social graph is created by the similarity values. Next, using a graph layout algorithm, the social graph is rendered on the screen. If we use the existing method for visualizing the social graph, it is hard to understand the meaning of the social graph because the graph is usually dense. To improve the weak point of the existing social graph visualization, we propose Friend-Matching, Friend-Rival Matching, and Bubble Heap algorithms in this paper. We also validate that our proposed algorithms can improve the quality of visualizing social graphs displayed by the existing method. Finally, our prototype system has been released in http://datalab.kunsan.ac.kr/politiz/un/. Please, see if it is useful in the aspect of public data utilization.

국내 물관련 건설 및 설비 업체를 대상으로 하는 설문조사 및 인터뷰 결과 국내 물 관련 기업들의 해외진출 시 가장 큰 애로사항은 해외경험 직원의 부족으로 나타났다. 해외사업 확대를 위해서는 고부가가치 업무를 수행할 수 있는 고급기술자와 관리 인력의 양성이 시급하며, 특히 건설사업관리(CM, PM)나 설계/엔지니어링을 담당할 고급 기술 인력의 양성이 필요한 것으로 조사되었다. 경쟁력있는 글로벌 기술 관리 인력의 양성은 정부의 주도하에 기존의 물 관련 기관의 교육프로그램 통합 운영 및 내실있는 전문 수자원 대학원 운영 등 장기적인 정책적인 지원이 필수적이다. 또한 현재 해외 물시장 정보 수집의 활성화를 위하여 국토교통부, K-water, 해외건설협회 등이 연계한 물 산업 전담 정보시스템 구축과 중점 수출대상국 선정 후 대상국에 해외지부 운영 등이 필요할 것이다. 금융지원과 관련하여 해외건설 금융지원 강화를 위한 글로벌 인프라펀드 조성, 해외건설 보증한도 확대 등이 필요하며, 'EDCF 등 공적금융의 물산업 지원 확대 등 재정지원을 위한 정부의 적극적인 역할 역시 중요하다. 해외 물시장 진출을 위해서는 국내 물기업들의 역량을 결집하는 것이 필요하며, 이를 위해서는 효율적인 공공 민간 협의체의 설립 및 운영이 이루어져야 한다. 전 세계적으로 물 산업은 높은 공공성과 함께토탈 솔루션 역량이 중시되고 있으며, 이런 시장환경에 부응하여 네덜란드, 독일 등 물산업 수출 강국은 자국의 물관련 분야를 결집하는 워터 파트너십을 설립하여 국제사회에서 위상과 세계시장 점유율을 동시에 높여가고 있는 실정이다. 이들 국가 워터파트너십의 공통적인 설립 목적은 궁극적으로 자국 물 관련 산업, 국가 브랜드 및 이니셔티브와 관련되는 국제협력, 정책 분야 등의 결집이다. 다시 말해서 정부가 주축이 되어 관 산 학 연 기관간의 정보제공, 협력 등을 도모하고 있으며 이 네트워크의 구심점 역할 및 촉진은 자국의 워터파트너십이 맡고 있는 것이다. 해외 물 시장 확대를 도모하고 있는 우리나라도 국가차원의 장기적이고 지속적인 해외 물산업 네트워크 구축을 위해서는 정부-공기업-민간기업 등의 협력을 토대로 한 Korea Water Partnership을 조속히 설립하는 것이 필요하다. 이를 위해서는 국토부, 환경부 등 물 관련 부처는 물론 글로벌 네트워크를 구축하고 있는 외교부, 무역협회 등 유관기관의 정보 연계 및 협조 체계 역시 필요하다. 정부부처 차원의 조직은 국제 정치 아젠다(agenda)에 중대한 영향을 줄 수 있으며, 경쟁적 우위와 유사기관 간의 정보와 네트워킹의 공유를 보다 원활하게 할 수 있기 때문이다. Korea Water Partnership에서는 한국이 보유하고 있는 선진 수자원기술 및 경험을 해외에 소개하고, 정부 및 민간 기업들의 물 산업 수출역량을 적극적으로 피력할 수 있는 기회를 마련하며, 국제사회에서 물 강국으로서 한국의 위상을 높일 수 있는 홍보 마케팅 창구로서의 역할을 기대할 수 있을 것이다.

As China's international status is more and more uplifted, the active shaping and effective propagation of China's national image has been regarded as an important means to demonstrate China's soft power, demolish the so-called "China Threat Theory", and compete for China's share in international discourse power. This article first makes a discussion on the fundamental concepts and related theories of national image, and then explores the precise positioning of China's image as "a responsible power" and the connotation that should be contained in this image. Finally, this article presents a tactic of "complex propagation" for the shaping of China's national image, which includes the propagation by new media and advertisement, the marketing of international sport games and other international events, public diplomacy and public relations tactics.

With a view to providing a high-quality policy information service beyond the existing national task service of the national policy information portal (POINT) of the National Library of Korea Sejong, it would be necessary to effectively provide the policy data needed for the implementation of the new national tasks. Accordingly, in this study, an attempt has been made to find a way to connect and develop the BRM-based national tasks and the policy information contents. Towards this end, first, the types of national tasks and the contents of each field and area of the government function's classification system were analyzed, with a focus placed on the 120 national tasks of the new administration. Furthermore, by comparing and analyzing the national tasks of the previous administration and the current information, the contents ought to be reflected for the development of contents related to the national tasks identified. Second, the method for linking and collecting the policy information was sought based on the analysis of the current status of policy information and the national information portal. As a result of the study, first, examining the 1st stage BRM of the national tasks, it turned out that there were 21 tasks for social welfare, 14 for unification and diplomacy, 17 for small and medium-sized businesses in industry and trade, 12 for general public administration, 8 for the economy, taxation and finance, 6 for culture, sports and tourism, science and technology, and education each, 5 for communication, public order and safety each, 4 for health, transportation and logistics, and environment each, 3 for agriculture and forestry, 2 for national defense and regional development each, and 1 for maritime and fisheries each, among others. As for the new administration, it is apparent that science technology and IT are important, and hence, it is necessary to consider such when developing the information services for the core national tasks. Second, to link the database with external organizations, it would be necessary to form a linked operation council, link and collect the information on the national tasks, and link and provide the national task-related information for the POINTs.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic and diplomatic disputes, governments are actively developing a policy to revitalize·reshore manufacturing and to diversify international cooperations. In order to develop such a policy, it is very important to compare and analyze domestic·international geospatial information. Over the decade, the US·EC governments have conducted a series of national researches to build data-based tools that can monitor·analyze regional geospatial information driven by government R&D investments. In the case of the EC system, it can compare geospatial information in domestic and international(including Korea) regions. Compared to US·EC cases, Korean examples of national researches with available data analplatform need future improvements. Current study is investigating an automated analysis methodologies using "National Institute of Science and Technology Information (NTIS)" DB, which was national security data until recently. Research on data-mining regional geospatial information can contribute to support policy fields that need to discover new issues in response to unexpected social problems such as recently faced corona and trade disputes.

This article aims to identify organizational factors that influence the performance of implementation of the U.S. Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and to investigate the strength and direction of their effects. Explanatory variables include administrative resources, organizational culture, litigation cost, and the complexity of FOIA requests. The study will analyze quantitative secondary data from official statistics of federal agencies and the 2006 Federal Human Capital Survey as well as qualitative data from semi-structured interviews of FOIA officers. The results of statistical analyses are as follows : FOIA funding significantly affects median processing time and number of requests pending. There is a significant relationship between bureaucratic culture and number of requests pending, but not between bureaucratic culture and number of requests pending. There exists a significant relationship between the cost of FOIA litigation to federal agencies and the performance of FOIA implementation. There exists a significant relationship between the complexity of FOIA requests and the performance of FOIA implementation. This study also has important implication in South Korea, which has been under a sharp confrontation with North Korea for more than 50 years. As illustrated by the conflict between people's right to know and national security during the investigation of recent Sinking of the ROKS Cheonan, efforts should be made to prepare legal and institutional mechanism for freedom of information policy which can maintain a balance between conflicting values as well as efficient information disclosure in Korea.
