  • This article examines the image of the nation of the Union of Myanmar (Burma) by comparing the history textbook and the civic textbook prescribed in state schools during the period of independence from 1948 to 1958. After the Second World War, the political conditions gave the way for the formation of the Union of Myanmar composed of ethnic nationals in Myanmar. To shape the national identity, the newly-founded independent nation in 1948, introduced textbooks in history and civics for the purpose of nation building. The paper concludes that the history textbook illustrated the golden ages of the Myanmar kingdom by way of national consolidation and portrayed ethnic nationals as homogenous; on the other hand, the civic textbook defined a citizen as one who is born and raised in Myanmar; it also included migrant Asians such as Chinese and South Asians in the fold. The history textbook aspired for the national consolidation of ethnic nationals for the strength and prosperity of the country while the civic textbook required cooperation from both ethnic nationals and migrant Asians for peace and development of the country and the world.

  • Korean metropolises are choked by lack of green space to attain the limit of horizontal expansion. The alternative plan is trying total expansion that the green zone and road are made from the rest site by high-rise buildings. And high-rise building can solve indiscriminate development to attain the limit situation. The building of landmark can be the image of the nation and the pride of the citizen. The relaxing the height restriction of government can be whole nation's interests. Appearing high-rise building in overpopulated city is the subject of a generation and this trend cannot be avoided.

  • 본 연구는 해외 국가브랜딩전략에 대한 새로운 이론적 동향을 비판적으로 고찰함으로써 한국의 다양한 콘텐츠를 소통하고 교류하는 국가브랜딩의 변화방향을 모색한다. 지난 20여 년간 해외에서는 국가브랜딩에 대한 학술적 논의가 시대흐름에 따라 다양한 분야에 걸쳐 논쟁을 거듭하며 축적되고 확장되어온데 반해, 국내에서는 개념적 논의의 확장은 정체된 채 국가홍보를 위한 도구적 차원에만 그 초점이 머물러있었다. 그러나 혼돈의 국제정세 속에서 지속적으로 제기되고 있는 한국의 국가브랜드 저평가 및 국가이미지 제고문제에 대한 발전적 논의를 이어가기 위해서는 미디어변화에 따른 국가브랜딩에 대한 근본적이고 체계적인 개념적 이해가 선행되어야 한다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 그 동안 국내 연구에서는 주목하지 않았던 국가브랜딩의 다양한 이론적 관점과 패러다임 전환에 관한 연구문헌들을 심층적이고 폭넓게 검토하여 국가브랜딩이 국가 정체성-국가브랜드-국가이미지 간의 상호순환관계라는 새로운 개념적 틀을 제시하였다. 특히 '관계형성 패러다임'이라는 최근의 국가브랜딩 트렌드를 구체적이고 다각적으로 논의함으로써 한국의 국가브랜딩이 일 방향적인 홍보중심 관점에서 벗어나 다양한 수용자들과 우호적 관계형성, 개선 및 유지를 위한 전략으로 구현되기 위해서는 어떠한 요소들을 핵심적으로 고려해야하는지 현 시대에 맞는 국가브랜딩 전략의 요지를 파악하여 재 개념화하고 향후 한국의 미래지향적인 국가브랜딩 방향에 대한 시사점을 제시한다.

  • Knowledge management has recently emerged as an appealing subject in management literature. Although its history is short, it can benefit greatly from the long history of other related disciplines in building its theories. Innovation, organizational learning, knowledge creation, organizational capability building, technology transfer and network, information technology, organizational behavior, and intellectual capital are the disciplines that have accumulated theories related to knowledge management. This paper first presents a conceptual framework that integrates three dimensions: the characteristics of knowledge (tacit and explicit), knowledge process (acquisition, creation, diffusion, storing, measurement, and application of knowledge), and the unit of analysis (individual, organization, sector, and nation). The conceptual framework produces a number of cells that need to be filled by new theories in order to understand knowledge management better. It then reviews existing theories available in the related disciplines that may be used as building blocks in constructing new theories for these cells. Finally, based on the theories available in other disciplines, the paper suggests a set of future research directions for knowledge management at the level of individual, organization, sector, and nation.

  • Recently, the number of cases of fire spreading due to exterior materials of buildings is increasing. Due to the nature of modern architecture, which emphasizes the aesthetics of buildings, because buildings pursue a splendid appearance, they are inexpensive and have relatively good insulation performance, but an increasing number of buildings are adopting insulation materials that have poor fire safety performance. The risk of spread is also greatly increased. Since the exterior wall of a building is made of a variety of materials and structures, it is composed of a combination of several elements, including materials such as insulation and finishing materials. Therefore, it was determined that it was necessary to introduce a more systematic evaluation method for building exterior materials, and to improve the system reflecting this, away from the existing evaluation method that only checked the fire safety performance of finishing materials.

문화, 제국, 민족 -비판적 전유를 위한 에드워드 사이드의 『문화와 제국주의』 읽기 (Culture, Empire, and Nation: A Critical Appropriation of Edward Said's Culture and Imperialism)

  • This essay examines Edward Said's Culture and Imperialism focusing on the concepts of 'culture,' 'empire,' and 'nation'. The approach is critical, theoretical, and historical rather than explicatory. Consequently, the range of the essay is not limited to Said's own explanation and argument about Western imperialism and its culture presented in the book. In doing this, this essay finally purposes to be a discursive resistance to the current global empire, the United States, via a critical reading of Said's work. Said's notion of culture is set upon to disclose the function of culture as an apparatus of ideological consent of the dominated to the dominant. When applied to imperial practice, Western culture functions to subject the colonized to the colonizer. Said's geographical approach to imperialism complements the historical understanding of imperialism. Imperialism is not only the practice of Western-centered historicism but also the spatially mutual interaction between the West and the rest of the world. Along with European imperialism, Said poses the current global empire of the United States as his main target of criticism. Said's problem is that he takes the United States as a nation-state. When examined, the United States is not a nation-state, but today's empire. The empire in the appearance of the nation-state United States does not work for the interest of the American nation, that is, the American people. The empire is the transnational and postnational political and economic institution that works for the interest of global capital. In order to resist the current global empire, this essay suggests that the building or restoration of nation-states with its basic principle of people's sovereignty is in need.
