  • This study examined the comparative advantage of manmade textile (MMT) industries in the United States (US) and South Korea (SK). The Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) framework was used to assess the MMT industries' performance in both countries from 2004 to 2013. With the recent ratification of the United States-South Korea Free Trade Agreement (KORUS FTA), it is important to understand the current state of these industries. Using UN Comtrade export data, the RCA index values were calculated and analyzed for 27 MMT commodities, three aggregate groups, and the whole industry. It was found that SK had a consistent comparative advantage for the whole industry. Furthermore, SK had a larger number of products with a comparative advantage. The research findings indicate that the MMT industry in SK is likely to outperform the US following the complete ratification of the KORUS FTA.

  • In the 'Society of the Spectacle', Guy Debord argued that modern life was dominated by the commodity form and the false desires it engendered. He predicted in 1967 that culture would become the driving force in the development of the economy by the end of the century, He was sure when culture becomes nothing more than a commodity, it must also become the star commodity of the spectacular society. Fashion, the starriest of star commodities with its seductive fantasy approaches to the viewers occluding the commercial reality. From this point, the spectacular property of the modern fashion can be found. This study starts on the notion that the modern fashion is on the center of capitalist consumer culture and is constructed by spectacle. On this premise, the purpose of this study is analysing the attribute of 'spectacle' and 'keeping distance £Tom spectacle' in modern fashion expressed in fashion show, fashion media and fashion store. The fashion houses in the 1990s that recognised the commercial value of shock and spectacle were eager to employ young spectacularly visible named designers. They generated the publicity necessary for sales of perfume, cosmetics, bags and diffusion range of clothes through the visible fashion show and fashion media. In the fashion show and fashion media, fashion goods as the commodity both flaunts and disguises its commercial nature in spectacle. The spectacle on the fashion store is the process turning the commodity into image to arouse viewer's higher interest. In the fashion store, the appearance of the commodity such as space, display, package is considered more importantly than its 'utility value'. Meanwhile, the study also covered the innovative trial to evade the ubiquitous 'spectacle' in fashion area.

  • It can be said that the role of character is very important for the development of animation contents. It is because unlike in general motion picture, the emotional character, which is artificially controlled, plays the functional role in animation. Because of the function, the character may be differently expressed, depending on the culture of each country. However, general audiences and people selecting commodities have common factors. It seems that USA and Japan, which have led the world culture in the field of animation planning and manu facture, perform the animation manufacture by applying them properly. The purpose of this presentation is to analyze the works of USA and Japan, which have led animation manufacture. Because numerous works have been manufactured in two countries regardless of genres, the selection was made by concentrating on representative works that achieved good results from character commercialization. Therefore, the study will suggest the methodological direction for the new development of character, which is performed in industrial animation work and education field.

  • Advertisements provide consumers with in-formation and knowledge about products and help a society to sustain homogeneity by actively reflecting important characteristics of mass culture. Yet this reflection is a selective and purposeful representation by the party of the fashion manufactures and carries the intention of stimulating and augmenting desire for commodities aiming to perpetuate capitalism. This study understood this selective reflection of mass culture by advertisements as a feature of hegemonic struggle between/fashion business and consumers and defined the values selected by advertisements as ideologies supporting the consumption ideology of capitalism. The purpose of this study was to examine the contents of the ideologies expressed in the clothing advertisements in women's magazines to persuade consumers into consumption. The method of study was mainly qualitative with subsidiary citations from the results of content analysis. The objects of analysis were clothing advertisements in 1996 issues of CeCi and Woman Sense, which were identified as the two most popular women's monthly magazines. The ideologies identified were ideologies concerning (1) Self Identity, (2) Sensibility, (3) Sex Role, (4) Globalism, (5) Youth, (6) Leas-ure and Pleasure. Repeated and insisted as natural and true, there values were proposed to be believed as common senses and studies re-port that values of advertisements are ac-cepted as more readily as they are more unreasonable, and the acts and behaviors expres-sed within advertisements are often imitated in real life situations. Therefore, it is highly probable that these values emphasized within advertisements are enacted in thoughts and behaviors of consumers' real life. Accordingly the author suggests that critical interpretation of advertisements is seriously required to fully understand the commodity ridden post industrial society of today and to lead a subjective life within it.

What's happening to theatricality after the rise of New Historicism?: A Study of Newsbooks and Playlets During the English Civil Wars and Their Significance as Textual and Theatrical Forms (신역사주의적 극장성의 재고(再考) -17세기 중반 뉴스북과 플레이릿 연구를 중심으로)

  • Since the publication of Foucault's Discipline and Punish, theatricality has become one of the key concepts in New Historicism. By defining theatricality as the most definitive feature of early modern society and culture, New Historicists have promoted the idea that theatrical practices in every day life were eventually replaced by textual practices as the western society started to undergo modernization with the advent of print culture and technologies. This paper questions this linear model of English literature, the shift of literary practices from theatricality to textuality in the event of modernization, by closely looking at the ways in which newsbooks and playlets during the English civil wars appealed to their target readers. The early print-based literary commodities during the English civil war (i.e. newsbooks and playlets) were able to win the attention of their audience not by breaking away from theatrical energy and creativity but instead by embracing and taking advantage of them through the use of dramatic conventions, dialogues, and many others. The newsbooks and the playlets during the time, however, did not simply replicate the dramatic forms and experiences of the previous generation. Instead, as the case study of Craftie Cromwell exemplifies, they went further to produce a different mode of theatricality by reshaping everyday lives into serialized drama, whose resolution is always already delayed and postponed into the ever-receding future. In conclusion, the study of the newsbook and playlets during the civil wars suggests that the textuality of modern times, materialized in print forms, have been co-evolved with the development of new theatricality, whose contents and forms are susceptible to the changes of everyday reality.

  • In times when identity-principles dominate through culture-industry, it appears to be the idea of the perfect identity-knowledge which Hegel had required for philosophy to become true. By being produced, cultures, according to the principle of production for production itself, became commodities which can be exchanged in the market. So what cannot be exchanged in the market is excluded as worthless and useless. As culture-industry gets rid of room for the new and the experience of it, the experience of what is new became impossible. In such degrees the consciousness is reificated, and the freedom as autonomy becomes an empty concept. But if there is not the freedom of will, conscious thought will not be possible, and human beings will degenerate into a simple species. Nevertheless, freedom which becomes meaningless in reality is an essential element for a human being to be human, so in the times when consciousness is reificated by means of the culture-industry, as the autonomous art awakens a reificated consciousness, it will be the antidote of a reificated consciousness which makes free thought and action possible. In this sense, this study will try to justify the aesthetic experience as shudder through the experience of what cannot be exchanged that becomes possible with critics regarding the constructive imperfection of identity-knowledge. Then it will argue that the aesthetic experience as shudder makes the autonomous art possible.

  • Enzyme linked-immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for a rapid detection of fungi, Aspergillus and Penicillium genera in food, were developed and their efficiencies were approved by detecting artificially contaminated agricultural commodities. Mice were immunized with partially purified Aspergillus flavus extracellualr polysaccharide (EPS) and lymph node cells of the mice were fused with the myeloma cells for production of monoclonal antibodies. Mab 1G11, one of the antibodies, was selected and purified. A sandwich ELISA was established and its detection limit toward A. flavus EPS was 1mg/ml. Among the 59 strains tested (including 18 species of Aspergillus, 16 of Penicillium, 11 of Fusarium, 1 of Absidia, 2 of Alternaria, 2 of Candida, 2 of Cladosporium, 2 of Geotrichum, 2 of Mucor, 2 of Rhizopus, 1 of Trichoderma), species of Aspergillus and penicillium had a high reactivity with Mab 1G11 even up to 10,000 times dilution of culture broths. The other genera except Cladosporium resinae showed no reactivity, thus Mab 1G11 was specific to the genera of Aspergillus and Penicillium. The epitope of A. flavus EPS against monoclonal Mab 1G11 was on the carbohydrate moiety when 1 to 100$\mu g/g$ A. flavus EPS were put into rice, potato, and mandarin orange, the average recoveries detected by sandwich ELIA were 123, 59, and 76%, respectively. Correlation was found to be linear between the EPS, and mycelium of A. flavus and Penicillium citrinum grown in a liquid medium (r=0.87 and 0.96), and also between the EPS and colony forming unit in solid media of rice of potato (r=0.91-0.99).
