Should the Korea Maritime Police Agency (KMPA) be a comprehensive, multi-functional organization for a unique on-scene service at sea, as in the case of the U.S. Coast Guard, or should it be simply a water police agency, confining its mission only to law enforcement? The argument about enlarging or limiting KMPA's function has been and will be repeated. In this paper, Lee Sangjib highlights the internal and external issues facing KMPA, stemming partly from deficiencies of its struggles for advancement of the organization and partly from shortcomings of political support for it. In this regard, he urges KMPA to practise a scientific management system for maximizing cost-effectiveness of its administrative resources and for maintaining its identity and characteristics as a lead maritime agency. In addition, he also suggests that KMPA adopt the Total Quality Management System for quality improvements in services and greater efficiency in its organization structure to meet the future competition in the changing political and legal environment. He further recommends the proactive, non-regulatory 'Prevention Through People' program, pioneered by the U.S. Coast Guard, as a way of changing KMPA's existing lopsidedly legalistic culture. He concludes by providing a 6-point vision statement for KMPA from the standpoint of favoring enlarging the function of KMPA.

This paper explores the political significance of a literary work, the hidden side beneath the ideology of founding America in Lydia Maria Child's Hobomok which reconstructs the history of the colonial period. The ideological strategy of founding America on racial discrimination is given a repeated representation in 19th-century American novels. Most works shed a negative light on Native Americans, whereas Hobomok stands out by presenting a positive picture of a miscegenation between a Native American man and a white woman, the acculturation of a half Indian into the white society. Furthermore, Child undoes distorted stereotypes about native Americans, exposing the Puritans' intolerant and exclusive attitudes and criticizing men who forced women to be obedient for the cause of nation and religion. However, Child also shows that she could not be free from the ideology of founding America which insisted on the superiority of the white's racial identity and excluded the Native Americans as beings who were destined to vanish gradually but eventually. Although Hobomok revises stereotypical representation of Native Americans as the other, it also serves for a political purpose, showing a politically inseparable relationship between literary works and the ideology of founding America.

인간 거주의 오랜 역사와 완충적인 지정학적 위치에 따른 한국 문화의 통시적 역동성과 공시적 다양성은 한국 지명의 이중성과 중층적 다양성에 중요한 배경과 원인이 되어 왔다. 이러한 한국 지명의 변동 과정은 상이한 사회적 주체들이 문화의 의미를 둘러싸고 벌이는 갈등과 경합의 권력 관계를 연구하는 문화정치학 분야에 비교적 적절한 연구 대상으로 주목된다. 한국 지명에 대한 문화정치적 연구의 당위성을 확보하기 위하여, 본 연구는 장소 아이덴티티, 영역 경합, 스케일 정치라는 개념을 중심으로 한국 지명의 문화정치적 연구를 위한 이론의 구성을 시도하였다. 지명은 자연과 사회적 주체를 지칭하며 이들의 아이덴티티를 재현하는 과정을 분석하는데 유용한 이론으로서 안게른과 카스텔스의 아이덴티티 이론, 페쇠의 동일시 이론, 홀의 디코딩 이론, 볼로쉬노프(바흐찐)의 이데올로기적 기호 이론이 사례를 통하여 실험되었다. 사회적 주체의 아이덴티티와 이데올로기를 재현하는 지명을 매개로 장소 아이덴티티 내지는 영역적 아이덴티티가 구축되는 과정에는 필연적으로 포함과 배제의 권력 관계가 개입되어 있다. 이러한 과정을 분석하기 위해서는 아이덴티티, 이데올로기, 권력 관계라는 요소들을 반드시 고려해야하므로, 경계, 영역, 영역성, 영역화, 영역적 아이덴티티 등과 같은 개념을 포용하는 스케일 정치라는 관점을 약간의 사례에 실험적으로 적용해 보았다. 끝으로, 본 연구는 다양한 문화정치이론을 토대로 일정한 범위의 지역을 단위로 하는 기초적이고 학제적인 지명 연구를 통해 지명의 문화정치적 사례가 연구되어야 함을 제안하였다.

In the modern society in which globalization and localization proceed simultaneously, diversified and rapid migration of diaspora makes a new from of boundary off the frame of the state and the nation. This new border accompanies cultural change and racial mixture; retains ethnic conflict, the gap between rich and poor, alienation and discrimination, as well as power conflict; and extends its influence. Nowadays, the countries all over the world including Korea face problem of Diaspora in numerous forms. And each country takes an approach to the problem of the diaspora in the aspects of their society, culture and political technology. This implies that most countries, without understanding the new form of border which is alive and dynamic, define and conceptualize the diaspora in the frame of one state and one nation to carry forward the policies accordingly, resulting in inequal, incomplete and awkward homogenization. This study aimed to explore the identity of the diaspora, the core for the problem solving. Of course, studies about the identity of the diaspora have been continued until today and many great outcomes have been achieved. Nevertheless, this study aimed to explore the identity of the diaspora and the national policies which have a close interrelationship with it. It is because the study ultimately aimed to highlight the interrelationship between the destination countries, Russia and China, and the diaspora, through the definition and the classification of Russian diaspora and Chinese diaspora and the analysis of the national policies about that. However, the intention was not to distinguish superiority through the comparison of the polices about the diaspora between two countries, but to focus on the diversity of the identity of the diaspora through defining each different diaspora and paralleling the policies. Second, the reason for looking into the diaspora policies of these two countries is because it is judged the changes in the diaspora policies of each country is one of the active factors for the changes in the identify of the diaspora of each country and it is the basic research for the study on the identity of the diaspora. New migration of diaspora changes the identity of the state, and the state makes the policies and enforce the policies, resulting in the influence on the diaspora. This interaction acts as the growth factor for the new boundary. The causes of Russian diaspora and Chinese diaspora show apparent 'differences'. In parallel with this, the policies about the diaspora in Russia and China arouse 'differences' to the diaspora. The variation of the identity of the diaspora made by these differences will suggest other viewpoints on the diaspora, and these viewpoints will become the foundation for solving the problem of the diaspora in the present times.

21세기 빅데이터와 알고리즘, 인공지능의 발달로 점점 더 많은 영역에서 우리의 선택과 판단이 외주화(outsourcing)되고 있다. 그렇다면 통계적 모델과 컴퓨터 분석, 그리고 인공지능과 같은 새로운 기술들이 우리의 평가와 선택 활동들을 대체할수록, 우리의 삶에는, 그리고 우리의 정체성에는 어떠한 변화가 일어나는가? 본 논문은 자본주의 발전 과정에서 인간 자아에 대한 경제적, 도덕적 판단을 수행했던 활동, 즉 신용평가(credit rating)의 등장, 통계화와 자동화, 그리고 알고리즘화까지의 변화를 분석했던 연구들을 살펴보며, 이 과정을 추동했던 경제적, 기술적 요인들을 규명하려 할 것이다. 이를 통해 21세기 인간의 정치적, 사회적 가능성의 조건들, 그리고 자본주의 진화 과정에서 나타난 "평가된 자아"라는 새로운 주체들의 특징과 양상을 살펴볼 것이다. 마지막으로 자본주의적, 기술적 힘의 공간에서 형성된 "평가된 자아"가 어떻게 새로운 해방적 가능성을 이끌어낼 수 있는지 간략히 논의하며, 점차 인간의 판단을 대체하고 외주화하고 있는 인공지능 기술의 사회적 정치적 함의에 대해 논의해 볼 것이다.

As foundation wear, underwear is the starting point where a woman shapes her figure and constructs a female identity. In the late twentieth century, the use of underwear as outerwear was extensively adapted, so underwear as outerwear is the latest thing today. Based on literature review, this study aimed to examine how underwear was adopted for use as outerwear extensively in the late twentieth century. The result of this study can be summarized as follows. First, originally there was no border between underwear and outerwear at the start. With the change of female social and political status, the function of underwear and its design has been changed diversely. Also, its revealing and decoration has been linked with female sexual attraction. Second, by some precursor fashion designers such as Vivienne Westwood and Jean Paul Gaultier, underwear was redefined as outerwear with erotic but powerful meaning in the Twentieth century. Their idea had an enormous influence on contemporary fashion culture, and consequently has become popularized like lingerie look today. Third, the change of female social status led a big change in view on the female sexuality and the ideas of femininity in fashion culture in the Twentieth century. Dressed by Gaultier, Madonna's performance wearing corset costume played a role in redefining contemporary femininity in relation to sexuality and power, even though it is still under the controversy.

This article discusses David Henry Hwang's M. Butterfly as a suggestive text for examining Western masculinity in crisis in the post-imperialist age, in which territorial imperialism is no longer valid. Previous scholarship on M. Butterfly has centered around the interlocking dynamics of imperialism, racism and sexism. Such critical attentions focus on how Hwang deconstructs racialized significations of the East and the West. In these discussions, the issue of gender is often addressed merely as a trope to represent the power relations between the East and the West. As such, gender as well as sexuality is highlighted as the very source of subversion of the power relations. My discussion departs from a critique of the gendered trope of the East and the West, highlighting a postmodern agent, the allegedly feminized character Song Lining: a Chinese actor who passes for a woman for political purposes in postcolonial China. Remaining an "inappropriate/d other" in the gendered imperialist discourse, Song becomes an emergent subject, who is capable of playing gender ambiguity for reclaiming a devalued identity, that of homosexual Asian man. Discussing how the central character Rene Gallimard's masculine identity is constructed in a cross-cultural space and how it evolves, I also argue that Gallimard's melancholic death signifies a historical unsustainability of imperialist masculinity in the postmodern/postcolonial age since World War II.
