Recently, as an enonomic importance of the Eurasian Continent raises, the necessity of east-west connecting ancient transport roads research is increasing. Although domestic research of eastern-western international exchange in the Eurasia is not yet very active, the studies of history, archaeology, art history, folklore, costume history have been advanced steadily. An attention for the exchange through steppe route originated from the interest in Korean folk and Korean culture and the research range is extending to Xiungnu, Kurgan culture as a direct investigation on the remains of Mongolia and Kazakhstan has been achieved constantly. The art history has been leading the research of exchange which is based on desert and oasis. The field research of Iran, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, etc progressed in various routes, and the research on diverse topics including Silla's golden culture, transmission of glass, and the Buddhism is improving. Research on the maritime silk road is weaker, compared to other parts. Buddhist and Hindu temples of Southeast Asia attracted some interest to people, but the research should focus on the restoration of sea route and consideration of its meaning. Research of this part is expected to be more activative, as domestic researchers investigate Don Son culture and Sa Huynh culture of Vietnam by themselves. From now on, we should focus on topics that are not directly connected to Korean history, and Korean culture. Because it is also our duty to study and conserve the culture of entire human community.

Today, in the cultural properties research, there are several methods for knowing the culture of the past through a lot of information that remains and relics contain. Especially, statistical method like presumption of producing center were introduced from computer development at the early 20th century. This study showed the characteristic about firing historic sites presumed as a tile-kiln in the remains of Cheonwang temple sites, Hanam, Gyeonggi province. Also, I used nature scientific methods for correlation between tiles excavated at historic sites and circumference building and obtained there results as follows. First, soft tile parts showed similar water suction ratio(over 10%) like another tiles, except hard tile parts. Second, identification about mineral crystallization in a sample showing low water suction ratio confirmed a result that Mullite, Tridymite, Cristobalite as high temperature crystal form were presented. I know that firing temperature was higher than the other tile parts from this result. Third, statistical analysis from micro-component resulted that tiles excavated at firing historic sites and Cheonwang temple sites were closely connected. As the results, I knew that the tiles got a supply after the establishment of tile-kiln, not at a long distance at the period of Cheonwang temple construction.

This study examined the effects of social capital on psychological identity and practical wellbeing for the Korean baby boom generation. To achieve this, an empirical survey was carried out on baby boomers who use elderly welfare centers and cultural centers living in D City. The overall research results showed that trust (t=6.893, p<.05), participation (t=5.157, p<.05), network (t=8.093, p<.05), and norm and reciprocity (t=4.787, p<.05), as sub-factors of social capital for baby boomers, had a significant effect on their practical wellbeing. Psychological identity was moderated (t=2.023, p<.05) in the effect of trust on practical wellbeing, adopting the hypothesis. This means that the social ties and the strong trust relationship between family members and relatives, which built up amid rapid economic growth, work with positive expectations of social capital and have a major effect on practical wellbeing. Moreover, practical welling also rated high, along with the high trust relationship and psychological identity. Consequently, various exchange programs and group and volunteer activity programs for baby boomers should be established to decrease their psychological identity due to the loss of social roles. Moreover, the decline of activities at a time of retirement can slow practical wellbeing.

With a long-lasting pandemic of COVID-19, we have faced unprecedented socioeconomic threats. The regulation of human exchange has exposed us not only to the threat of health and medical care problems, but also to the burden of the contraction of economic activity. The outbreak of COVID-19 did give us an opportunity to reexamine the social safety net which has been prepared for such crisis situations. The current study, in this vein, aims to investigate the impact of evaluations of social safety nets on the trust in government and on individual willingness to accept tax increases. To this end, this study has explored the data from a survey conducted on 1,000 adult men and women across the country (South Korea) in May, 2020, when COVID-19 has entered a pandemic phase. The analysis result then has shown that the evaluation of social safety net after the outbreak of COVID-19 had a positive impact on the trust in the government, which in turn led to the increase of the willingness to accept tax increases. Moreover, the positive impact of trust in government on the willingness to accept tax increases has been more amplified when the income level was increased. These results could contribute to laying the theoretical foundation for restructuring the policies and systems for the post COVID-19 era.

The cooperative network structure influences the academic performance of the research institute. In particular, South Korea's Government-Funded Research Institutes(GRI) need to establish an efficient cooperative system as a leading national R&D implementer. This study applied the Small World structure, which has been discussed as an efficient network structure, and the centrality of representing the characteristics of nodes to the cooperative network of GRI in Korea. Based on the SCIE published data from 2010 to 2019, we analyze how the Small World characteristics and centrality of GRI contribute to academic performance using a network analysis and Feasible GLS regression. The GRI cooperative network has shown that the Small World network structure facilitates the academic performance. In addition, centrality indicating the degree of direct connection showed positive significance, but centrality indicating the degree of intermediary was not significant or negative. The results of this study explain that the higher the number of institutions that exchange and cooperate, the higher the academic performance, and the higher the performance of the institutions that serve as the center of cooperation. In addition, it was established that the stronger the cooperative network of GRIs have the characteristics of Small World, the more effective it is to create research results. This study applies centrality and Small World previously discussed as an efficient network structure to the GRI cooperation network and provide implications for establishing policies and strategies related to R&D cooperation among GRIs.

Based on the challenges encountered in the urban regeneration projects (general neighborhood-type) of Anjung District and Sinjang District in Pyeongtaek City, this study aims to explore the key factors of improvement measures for urban regeneration projects. Using the first survey conducted among shopping mall owners, employees, and residents, this study finds a significant level of awareness and very strong needs for urban regeneration projects. On the other hand, the overall satisfaction levels are observed to be low across the three factors: social, economic, and cultural. The second expert survey and the subsequent Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) analysis conducted for improvement measures reveal notable discrepancies in the prioritization of factors between administrative experts and practical experts. For the importance of administrative experts, the establishment of network-type regional governance was ranked first for the importance, followed by hosting events related to the U.S. military and long-term pre-market operations, and expanding exchange and cooperation between the U.S. Forces Korea and the community. For the importance of working-level experts, hosting U.S. military-related events and long-term pre-market operations was ranked first, while supporting U.S. military-related festivals and developing local natural landscape resources was ranked second. Our findings suggest the need for proactive measures such as attracting commercial facilities to stimulate demand from both the U.S. military and local residents, thereby revitalizing general neighborhood-type urban regeneration projects, developing programs for local tourism, and operating pre-market operations in the long run. Therefore, this study highlights the importance of regional government cooperation for urban regeneration projects.
