  • In order to overturn the exclusion of Korean schools from the newly implemented free tuition program (2010) as part of sanctions against North Korea, members of Korean schools and Japanese supporters have focused on "students' innocence" and "multicultural coexistence" as viable frameworks to explain why the students are sympathetic and legitimate subjects who deserve equal rights. Examining different political strategies employed by the Korean schools and their supporters through ethnography and media analysis, the article pays close attention to how they claim their eligibility for these rights while they negotiate state surveillance and intervention in the process. I argue that in their efforts to gain recognition as deserving and sympathetic subjects, Korean schools are trapped in what political theorist Patchen Markell calls a "permanent temptation" in pursuing "recognition." Anti-North Korea sentiments in Japan have made the desire for good recognition even more urgent among Korean school community members. The paper will demonstrate that the search for recognition unwittingly reinforces and perpetuates existing relations of subordination and state dominance over their education as it has forced the Korean schools to accept various "conditions" that would radically alter the core principle, mission, and pedagogy of Korean school education that is rooted in decolonizing theory and praxis. This paper will shed lights on dilemma of multicultural coexistence the Korean minority population faces in Japan today.

  • 이 연구는 북한경제체제전환을 위한 제도적 조건과 문제점을 분석하기 위한 데 목적이 있다. 연구방법으로는 먼저 주요 경제체제전환국들의 4대 시장개혁정책(자유화, 사유화, 민영화, 주식회사화)의 법제화과정들을 시기별로 비교분석하고 북한과의 차이점을 도출하였다. 이를 바탕으로 북한의 4단계 경제개혁정책(7.1조치, 종합시장정책, 화폐개혁, 6.28방침)의 제도화 과정들을 분석하고 경제체제전환국 사례의 북한 적용가능성에 대한 문제점, 그리고 전망을 모색하였다. 연구결과, 현재 북한 시장경제의 변화를 경제체제전환국들과 동일선상에서 비교할 수 없는 중요한 조건 세 가지가 있다. 첫째, 경제체제전환을 위한 대내외적인 조건과 환경, 그리고 국가와 시민사회의 역할이 다르다. 둘째, 정책결정과정과 집행과정의 수단과 목적도 다르다. 셋째, 국가의 정치경제정책의 속성과 실효성측면에서도 다르다. 넷째, 경제개혁을 위한 경제정책의 우선순위와 내용, 법제화과정들이 서로 다르다. 특히'중국식 모델'로의 이행가능성에 대해 논의할 때, 그것도 상당한 위험성을 내포한다. 그것은 북한에서 통제 권력의 시장투입 목적과 그들 생존 네트워크는 상당히 독보적이기 때문이다. 또한 중국과 북한의 내수시장 규모, 인구규모, 통제유형도 상당히 다르다. 북한 경제체제전환을 위한 필요충분조건은 시장 영역에서 물리적 통제기구와 제도의 완화이다. 다음으로 현재 불법 소유화 시장에 대한 전수조사와 함께 합법적 제도화가 시급히 이루어져야 한다. 이를 바탕으로 내수 시장의 중국 의존성을 점차 한국으로 전환할 필요가 있다. 즉 선 통제 권력 배제, 후 자율화 및 내수시장의 패러다임 전환이다.

  • 이 연구에서는 미국의 북중부 7개주를 대상으로 농촌 주거지 개발에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자들을 분석하였다. 특히, 사회경제적 요인들과 산림유형에 따른 산림환경특성을 주거지 개발의 주요 요인으로 고려하여 상대적 중요도를 살펴보았다. 먼저, 1950년 이후 미 북중부 지역에서 나타난 인구변화에 대한 실증모델을 개발하였고, 고정효과 패널모델을 이용하여 인구변화에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자들을 분석하였다. 연령별로 인구변화패턴과 거주지를 선택하는 선호 요인이 상이하게 나타나기 때문에, 실증모형을 구성할 때 연령별로 모형을 설정하였다. 다음단계로, 인구변화에 영향을 미치는 요인들이 소득과 같은 가변요인 뿐 아니라 단기간에 거의 변화가 없는 지역의 특수한 환경 요인들을 포함할 것이라는 가정하에, 패널모형의 고정효과 값을 종속변수로 설정하여 각 카운티별 인구증감의 차이가 산림환경, 수자원 등 시간불변변수들에 의해 영향을 받는 것으로 설정하여 횡단면적 모델을 추정하였다. 마지막으로, 농촌 지역의 주거지 수요를 설명하는 모델을 추정하였다. 연구결과, 이주자의 나이가 주거지 선정에 영향을 미치는 핵심 인자로 나타났고, 특히 사회경제적 요인 뿐 아니라 산림유형, 수자원 등 환경 어메니티가 주거지 수요에 미치는 상대적 중요도도 나이 계층별로 상이한 것으로 나타났다.

  • The population of Daegu, the third biggest city in Korea, is two point six million. Daegu is known as a basin or a city where it is not only too hot in summer but also too cold in winter. Recently with redevelopment apartment house boom, a 40-story or more apartment complexes are under construction near Shin-cheon and Dondaegu-ro, the south-north axis of Daegu. It is necessary to raise several points about blocking a road of the wind by high-rise apartment buildings and apartment complexes. As a kind of the green policy, Daegu enlarge the distance between apartment building by reconstructing low-rise apartment into high-rise and impose a duty of a green space on the ground by making a parking zone into an underground. Through this process, apartment complexes changed from a '一'shape to a '口'shape. It increases heat island phenomenon of a city by blocking a road of the wind that comes from Shin-cheon and Dondaegu-ro. To circulate the polluted air of Daegu basin, we need local wind. There are four effective measures. 1) Throw three greens into one in the center of the road at the north side in the same way of the south side of Dongdaegu-ro, 2) reflect the information of roads of the wind including heights, spaces and directions of buildings, 3) steer clear of a high-rise buildings and development apartment house constructions, and 4)select a city for benchmarking to be the environmental capital.

  • Sequences of the large subunit ribosomal (LSD) rDNA D1-D2 region of Alexandrium catenella(=A. sp. cf. catenella) and A. tamarense isolates, which were collected along the Korea coasts, were analyzed to understand their phylogenetic relationships and geographical distributions. All A. catenella and A. tamarense isolates belonged to the A. tamarense/catenella/fundyense complex and were grouped with the North American and temperate Asian ribotypes, respectively, regardless of the presence or absence of a ventral pore in the first apical plate. A consistent and peculiar characteristic that differentiated the Alexandrium isolates was amplification of a second PCR product with a lower molecular weight in addition to the predicted one; ten A. catenella isolates belonging to the temperate Asian ribotype yielded this additional PCR product. Sequence alignment revealed that the shorter PCR product resulted from an unusual large deletion of 87 bp in the LSD rDNA D1 domain. The North American and temperate Asian ribotypes were prevalent along the Korean coasts without geographical separation. Given the high genetic homogeneity among widely distributed Alexandrium populations, each ribotype appeared to be pandemic rather than to constitute a distinct regional population.

  • Most New Zealanders reside in coastal regions and four of the larger cities are situated on active floodplains. There have been many recent storm events with rainfall AEPs of 1/150 or rarer and there have been recent flood-related disasters. Insurance claim statistics indicate that the frequency of floods is increasing. Such statistics are alarming local government authorities, insurance companies and populations in low-lying areas. The underlying physical and hydrologic causes of the flood disasters are investigated. It is found that the present numbers of rare rainfall events are not unexpected and there does not appear to be any significant trend evident in the occurrence of river floods. What is revealed is that the river floods appear clustered in certain decades. The clusters do not occur at the same times in different parts of the county. Recently there have been more floods in the north of New Zealand which is where more of the population lives. Also, the increase in population has seen more houses built in locations prone to flooding. Thus the increase in flood-related insurance claims is attributed to more people getting in the way of floods, rather than an increase in the number of floods that have occurred.

  • Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder, the prevalence of which has increased drastically in India in recent years. Neuroligin is a type I transmembrane protein that plays a crucial role in synaptogenesis. Alterations in synaptic genes are most commonly implicated in autism and other cognitive disorders. The present study investigated the neuroligin 3 gene in the Indian autistic population by sequencing and in silico pathogenicity prediction of molecular changes. In total, 108 clinically described individuals with autism were included from the North Karnataka region of India, along with 150 age-, sex-, and ethnicity-matched healthy controls. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood, and exonic regions were sequenced. The functional and structural effects of variants of the neuroligin 3 protein were predicted. One coding sequence variant (a missense variant) and four non-coding variants (two 5'-untranslated region [UTR] variants and two 3'-UTR variants) were recorded. The novel missense variant was found in 25% of the autistic population. The C/C genotype of c.551T>C was significantly more common in autistic children than in controls (p = 0.001), and a significantly increased risk of autism (24.7-fold) was associated with this genotype (p = 0.001). The missense variant showed pathogenic effects and high evolutionary conservation over the functions of the neuroligin 3 protein. In the present study, we reported a novel missense variant, V184A, which causes abnormal neuroligin 3 and was found with high frequency in the Indian autistic population. Therefore, neuroligin is a candidate gene for future molecular investigations and functional analysis in the Indian autistic population.

  • As the population of persons and automobiles rapidly grows, parking problems also grow in large cities of Korea. The purpose of this paper is to first grasp the status of parking facilities and characteristics in large cities of Korea; and introduce new directions of CBD parking policies in north America cities: and finally recommend the adequate parking management strategies and tactics for improving parking problems in Korea. For this purpose, field survey for parking inventories, patrol survey for parking usage as observed demand and drive interview survey for parking behavior were conducted. Compared with the parking characteristics and polices of foreign cities, many differences of characteristics were found, and existing parking management policies, which should be improved, were identified. Five categories of parking management strategies were set on; a) Reasonable control of CBD parking demand, b) securing of the public parking facilities c) Promotion of privately operated parking facilities d) expansion of financial resources for parking facilities construction and e) Improvement of existing parking management system. And actural seventeen tactics to attain the above strategies were recommended.
