Arif Dirlik in Postmodernity's Histories sees the issue of re-ethnicization in the case of John Huang, China's alleged attempt at lobbying the Clinton administration. In this view, Americans with Chinese surnames were suspected by the US Justice Department to be possible spies working for Beijing. Reethnicization here seems to serve the mainstream society in reducing an ethnic minority to a group of aliens operating for their countries of origin. However, re-ethnicization is not necessarily a one-way oppressive operation; it is often made use of by the ethnic minorities in their efforts to adapt to their country of arrival. Haroon and Karim, the protagonists of Hanif Kureishi's The Buddha of Suburbia, are cases in point. They are portrayed as winning social recognition and securing a place of their own within the hostile host society through a strategic use of re-ethnicization, that is, masquerading as 'genuine Orientals.' This study brings to light possible fallacies or misguided expectations concerning the political position of first- and second-generation immigrants. One of the fallacies is found in the racist metropolis, which regards the ethnic minorities as a sort of resident aliens, no matter what immigrant generation the latter belongs to. Another fallacy is found in the kind of postcolonial criticism that automatically regards an anti-racist critique advanced by people like Kureishi as something motivated by a confrontational tactic, that is, an attempt at subverting the colonial power relations. The conclusion of this study is that Kureishi's agenda, as presented in The Buddha of Suburbia, is neither the preservation of an ethnic identity nor the subversion of colonial power relations but survival in the metropolis. On this account Kureish's agenda can be called a micro-politics.

중심시가지의 노후와와 교외개발의 메카니즘 속에서 일본의 중심시가지는 침체와 쇠퇴를 거듭하고 있으며, 이를 극복하기 위해 1998년부터 "중심 시가지에 대한 시가지 정비 개선 및 상업 등의 활성화의 일체적 주진에 관한 법률"에 근거하여 연간 1조엔의 예산을 편성하고 경제산업성등 관련 부처들과 TMO(Town Management Organization) 차원에서 총체적인 접근을 하고 있다. 이러한 중심상점가의 쇠퇴는 우리나라에서도 정도의 차이는 있지만 유사한 형태로 나타나고 있다. 이에 일본의 중심상점가를 살펴봄으로써 우리나라 주심상점가의 활성화 방향을 모색하는데 도움을 주고자 한다.

본 연구에서는 학교 폭력을 방지하고 학교 안전을 위한 다양한 제도들 중 배움터지킴이와 학교보안관에 관한 선행연구 및 사건사례를 분석하였다. 그리고 지금 논의되고 있는 학교 안전지도사 자격제도에 관해 조사하였다. 그 결과 기존의 제도들에 대해 다양한 문제점들이 두각 되었고 학교 안전지도사 제도가 이러한 문제점들에 대한 방안으로 모색되었다. 하지만 학교 안전지도사 제도가 기존의 다양한 제도들을 일원화할 수 있어야 하며 교직원에게 한정하는 부분은 수정 보완 되어져야 한다. 또한 교내의 학교범죄방지와 학교안전뿐만 아니라 교외 활동시에도 관련 부처와 상호 유기적으로 대응 할 수 있는 시스템이 이뤄져야한다.
