This paper identifies five factors that limited urban network formation in Northeast Asia over the past half millennium, questions the extent to which they are being overcome in the 1990s, and sketches a network of cities that could boost regionalism. It briefly traces the historical evolution of these factors, including comparisons with European integration, while focusing primarily on the policies of the 1990s that have affected their continuing role. First is the factor of closed national markets with weak regional integration. Second is the preeminence of administrative means of integration over commercial ones. Third is the character of localism, shackled by overcentralization and weak cross-border linkages. Fourth is the limited nature of internationalism, dominated by state catch-up policies with one-sided global involvement. Fifth is a lack of regional consciousness. Just as national urban integration was essential for regional networks to form, without regional integration it is difficult to contemplate Northeast Asian cities taking their rightful place in a global urban network. After noting the failures of the 1990s, the paper points to the potential role as dragon's heads for sub-regional urban networks of potential front-line cities: Tumen, Sapporo, Irkutsk, and what I call the Amur triangle. Also of interest are how the capitals of Beijing, Moscow, Seoul, and Tokyo will adjust to a transformed urban network. After all, their current skepticism must be overcome with a program that links the benefits on all sides in order to build trust in regionalism. This requires internationalism and symbols of a balanced approach to each country's needs.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: While the use of food additives in food processing has become a common practice worldwide, consumers' worry about potential hazards has not diminished. The purpose of this study was to identify trends in South Korean parents' perceptions about food additives by analyzing the results of surveys conducted from 2014 to 2018. SUBJECTS/METHODS: We conducted an off-line survey in Korea annually between 2014 and 2018 on perceptions about food additives. The numbers of survey respondents in each year from 2014 to 2018 were 381, 426, 301, 519, and 369, respectively. Our consumer respondents were parents of elementary-school-aged children. RESULTS: The ratios of respondents perceiving "food safety" as the most important factor in purchasing processed foods and "food additives" as the biggest threat to food safety have decreased over the years. However, most consumers still have negative perceptions of food additives. Additionally, among consumers lower confidence in or trust of the Korean government continued throughout the study period and appeared to be the main problem that needs to be overcome. CONCLUSIONS: This study found that Korean parents are still troubled by food additives. Consumers' confidence in the government needs to be increased through public communications. More multifaceted educational programs communicating scientific knowledge of food additives are needed in order to correct consumers' misperceptions.

As the competition in the liner shipping industry is becoming fiercer, the shipping company is trying to find the way to keep the best competitive position by reducing the cost level as low as possible and offering the best quality of service to their customer. In order to achieve this goal, the selection of port and terminal that have the best quality of service and cost effective structure is essential for the shipping line, where they can only have a chance to save the money. In this context, the paper compares three European container terminals in order to understand the factors that have to be considered in the decision making process for the selection of terminal. And its advantages and disadvantages of each type of container terminal operation system were analyzed from the liner shipping company's point of view in terms of cost, time, flexibility, stability, hinterland connection, geographical position and terminal productivity. It is obvious that the cost factors are very important for liner shipping company to select their terminal. However, there might be even more important factors than the cost factors, such as quality of port and terminal service, mutual trust, and possibility of future development.

Climate change is a man-made disaster that has become a major global concern today. With increasingly visible symptoms of climate change in recent years, it has become evident that climate action can no longer be dismissed as a mere matter of choice, but as a matter of survival for the human being. To address the impending climate change crisis in a collaborative and sustainable manner, the international community has been taking various measures including Kyoto protocol and the Paris Agreement. With respect to the private investor's project investment in line with international agreements on climate change, recently we have seen multiple legal judgments which clearly indicate the subject of judicial responsibility for investment in climate change related projects. However, in order to hold judicial responsibility occurring during the implementation of climate change related projects, a causal relationship between the responsible entities and clear responsibility must be demonstrated, and applicable institutional arrangements need to be arranged. It may be the right time for global community to consider shifting not only to human ethical obligations but also legal obligations. In this regard, concerned governments should consider legislating arbitration laws, regulations, and institutional arrangements in more specific and applicable manner.

인터넷관련 혁신의 수용을 설명하려는 많은 연구들에서 정보기술수용모델(TAM)이 적용되었지만, 온라인 상거래의 수용을 정확히 설명하기 위해서는 인터넷을 통해 상거래를 할 때 발생하는 특성을 반영해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 온라인 상거래관련 기존 연구들을 바탕으로 TAM을 확장하는 변수로 신뢰와 감정을 추가하고 변수들의 영향 관계를 통합적으로 구조화하였다. 이러한 확장 구조를 통해, 온라인 상거래 수용을 설명하는데 TAM의 원형을 그대로 적용하거나 신뢰 혹은 감정만을 고려한 기존 연구들이 갖는 설명의 제한점을 극복하고자 하였다. 그리고 온라인 상거래의 수용에 대한 전체적인 틀을 파악하고, 소비자가 온라인 상거래를 수용하는 측면에서 온라인 상거래의 성공을 결정짓는 주요한 변수들의 관계를 명확히 하였다. 신뢰, 감정, 사용의 용이함이 유용성을 지각하고 사이트 사용의도를 갖고 상거래 행동을 하는데 영향을 주며 이들 변수들간에도 영향관계가 있다는 모델을 제안하였고, 대안적으로 감정을 태도의 요소로 보는 모델과 신뢰가 감정이 전혀 관계가 없다는 모델을 제시하였다. 모델들을 비교한 결과 제안모델이 가장 우수하다고 판단할 수 있었다. 각 변수들의 경로계수에 의해 가설을 검증한 결과, 감정과 사용의 용이함은 유용성에 정적으로 유의하게 영향을 주었고 신뢰는 어느 정도 영향을 주었다. 그리고 신뢰와 사용의 용이함은 감정에도 유의하게 영향을 주었다. 그렇지만 사이트 사용의도에 유의하게 영향을 미치는 변수는 사용의 용이함 뿐이었다. 실증연구를 바탕으로, 온라인 상거래가 사용자 수용 측면에서 성공을 할 수 있기 위해서는 사용의 용이함과 함께 신뢰와 감정이 중요하게 고려되어야 함을 알 수 있다.
