This paper discuses how toxic humidifier disinfectants were produced and distributed by bypassing tightly regulated laws from 1994 when the first humidifier disinfectant was made until 2011 when it was found to be the cause of the untreated interstitial lung disease. Rather than presupposing immoral entrepreneurs or incompetent civil servants as the cause of this disaster, this paper focuses on the bureaucratic character of the corporate organization that sold the humidifier disinfectant and the government that approved it, and shows that communication in these bureaucratic organizations was hampered and thus defective. It emphasizes the fact that the bureaucracy and secrecy of these organizations are the major cause of the humidifier disinfectant disaster. An analysis of the bureaucratic characteristic of the organization can reveal what improvements should be made in the corporation and in the government in order not to recur this disaster.

This study develops model for analysis of relationship between major node (Interchange in expressway) and land price formation of apartments along with Seoul Belt Expressway by using CHAID analysis. The results show that first, regions(outer side: Gyeongido, inner side: Seoul) on the line of Seoul Belt Expressway are different and a graph generally show llinear relationships between land price and traffic node but it does not; second, CHAID analysis shows two different spatial distribution at the point of 2.6km in the outer side, but three different spatial distribution at the point of 1.4km and 3.8km in the inner side. In other words, traffic access does not necessarily guarantee high housing price since the graphs shows land price related to composite spatial distribution. This implies that residential environments (highway noise and regional discontinuity) and traffic accessibility cause mutual interaction to generate this phenomenon. Therefore, the highway IC landprice model will be beneficial for calculation of land price in New Town which constantly is being built along the highway.

Association of South East Asian Nations(ASEAN) has recently decided to develop ASEAN Highway Network to connect member countries by road in an attempt to achieve a goal of closer economic integration in the region. This entailed the necessity to newly construct or upgrade some 5,481 km of road sections to make ASEAN Highway Network functional. This study offers haw we can prioritize development of these road sections using the Analytic Hierarchy Process. Particularly, it shows how individual road sections can be prioritized considering the importance of corridor or road group where the individual road section lies. It also develops how values of different evaluation criteria can be compared in the same scale. This new approach can be useful in prioritizing highway development in such cases where candidate road sections are widely scattered around the region, so detailed benefit and cost analysis is practically too demanding to carry out.

The physical and psychological weaknesses of delinquent adolescents increase the possibility of socialization and the possibility of social exclusion. Therefore, this study aims to clarify the characteristics of the social exclusion through the Q methodology and to suggest policy and practical intervention directions. For this purpose, 36 statements about social exclusion were conducted through 15 prejudicial adolescents with the prior cooperation of the institution and the consent of the subjects. As a result of the analysis, four types were derived. Type 1 can be named as social disconnect type 'Type 2 is total type', type 3 is 'poverty type' and type 4 is 'service type'. Based on this, it can be said that the characteristics of social exclusion of juvenile delinquents are complexity, inclusivity, individuality, universality.

Security audits of IPsec VPNs are crucial for identifying vulnerabilities caused by implementation flaws or misconfigurations, as well as investigating incidents. Nevertheless, auditing IPsec VPN presents noteworthy challenge due to the encryptiong of network contents which ensere confidentiality, integrity, authentications and more. Some researchers have suggested using man-in-the-middle(MITM) techniques to overcome this challenge. MITM techniques require direct participation in the network and prior knowledge of the pre-shared key for authentication. This causes temporary network disconnection for security audits, and it is impossible to analyse data collected before the audit. In this paper, we present an analysis technique aimed at ensuring network continuity without relying on a specific IPsec VPN topologies or authentication method. Therefore, it is anticipated that this approach will be effective, practical and adaptable for conducting IPsec VPN security

This study empirically investigates how the switching barriers influence the consumer's perceived intention to change his or her current favorite internet shopping mall. Drawing from switching cost theory, variables pertaining to trust, shopping mall service quality, product price, web page quality, switching barriers were examined to examine the consumer's behavioral intention to switch to another shopping mall. The interaction effect of consumer involvement was also included in the research model. The results of the study report that customer satisfaction and switching cost influence shopping switching intention, while the effect of attractiveness of the shopping mall was not significant in the statistical analysis. Furthermore, a moderating effect of consumer involvement was not found significant in the PLS analysis. The study demonstrates the shopping mall owners try to increase the customer's overall satisfaction and raise the switching barrier by providing mileage advantages, for instance.

The Demilitarized Zone(DMZ) is a buffer zone set between the southern and northern limit lines established after the 1953 Armistice Agreement. It is an important natural environment conservation area where wild species of animals and plants live. On the other hand, the development pressure on the DMZ will increase when the inter-Korean economic cooperation is activated in the future. As a result, DMZ development should consider not only the economic cost-benefit aspects, but also how to assess and conserve the biodiversity of the DMZ, as well as the recovery costs and budget. This paper develope a sustainable DMZ management model under biodiversity uncertainly by using real option approach. The model is also designed to reflect the political risk and regional specificity of the DMZ. Through empirical analysis, I derive the biodiversity threshold (b^*) that can secure the DMZ investment economy under uncertainty. In addition, through the sensitivity analysis, I derive the factors influencing the biodiversity threshold, and suggest the policy implications for sustainable management of DMZ.

Using the fourth data of the Korea Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS), this paper analyzed sexual differences in the promotion possibility and the promotion experience. Effects on wage of the promotion possibility and the promotion experience have been also discussed in detail. The promotion probability of a male worker in his current job is as high as twice than that of a female worker after controlling other independent variables. However, if we restrict the analysis to workers who either can be or was promoted, the sexual difference in the promotion possibility is greatly narrowed. This result suggests that the continuous career development without disruption is critical for the promotion of female workers. Analysing the sexual difference in wage using Oaxaca and Ransom's methodology, explanatory variables, such as human capital, residential area, etc., explained 69.5% of wage difference between male and female workers. Especially, 13.9% of wage difference was contributed to sexual differences in the promotion possibility and the promotion experience. This kind of empirical result emphasized once again the importance of promotion on wage.

임진강은 북한지역이 유역면적의 60%에 달하고 2000년대 초부터 북한의 4월5일 댐과 황강댐과 남한의 군남과 한탄강 홍수조절지로 인해 물의 흐름과 강의 모습이 급격히 변화하고 있다. 기후변화 측면에서도 한반도 중부지역으로 기온 증가와 계절별 유출량, 특히 봄철의 유출량 감소가 전망되는 지역이다. 임진강 본류 유량 감소는 북한 측의 영향은 자료가 전무하고, 남측에서는 횡산, 군남 등 일부 수위표 자료만이 가용한 수준이다. 현재까지 자료로 보면, 2014년에 연강수량이 예년의 50% 수준이었던 점이 본류 유량 감소의 주 원인이었고, 다른 원인은 군남 홍수조절지의 저류 수준이 그 직하류 유량 변동에 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 유량감소 영향은 2014년 장단반도 일대 파주지역에서 가장 극심하였고, 유량 감소와 연동된 염도 변동이 가중되면서 모내기철 농업용수 공급이 어려웠다. 유량 감소 피해는 농업보다 어업분야에서 그 체감 정도가 극심하였고 경제적 피해도 심각했다. 체감하는 주민들 대부분은 댐 건설 이후 하도와 수변의 침식과 퇴적 등 하천의 역동성이 변화함을 느끼고 있고, 그로 인해 어업과 수생태계가 지속가능성하지 않을 거라는 우려가 팽배해 지고 있다. 지금까지 파악된 임진강 유량 감소의 수준과 피해 정도가 앞으로 어떻게 변화될지, 그 수준, 심각성, 경제적 피해와 환경적 가치나 서비스 제약 등에 대해 면밀한 검토가 필요하다. 하천의 흐름이 단절, 변경되어 야기되는 직간접적 변화를 인정하고 이를 지속가능하게 보완할 방안이 논의되어야 할 시점이다. 무엇보다 수환경과 수생태계의 변화 정도를 파악하기 위한 장기모니터링이 절실하고 그 결과의 해석을 통해 새로운 대안을 모색해 나가야 할 것이다. 2014년 혹은 그보다 심각한 강우량 감소 재현을 대비하고, 기후변화와 남북한 문제까지를 고려한 임진강 관리가 필요하다. 단기적으로는 농업용수 공급을 위해 하천 본류는 물론 가용한 저수지, 지하수 등 대체 자원을 적극 활용하는 등 비상급수체계를 운영해야 한다. 그러나 기후변화 등 장래 여건이 수량 압박을 가중할 것을 고려, 유역의 용수수급과 변동성에 대한 재평가가 시급하다. 보다 면밀한 평가는 횡산, 군남 등을 포함한 남북유역의 상황을 장기모니터링하고 북한 지역의 기초 자료 확보를 위한 여건을 마련해야 한다. 보다 합리적 분석을 위해 임진강 수계와 유역을 국가하천에서 국제하천으로 격상하는 방안이나, DMZ와 연계한 남북공유 하천으로 관리하는 등의 새로운 대안이 절실하다. 국제수로협약 등을 통해 접경지역의 하천관리를 공동으로 하고 있는 외국 사례의 시사점도 접목해 볼 필요가 있다. 무엇보다 임진강 관리를 좀 더 제도적 틀안에서 확립해 가기 위해 지역정부로서의 경기도, 중앙정부 주체로 국토부와 통일부가 보다 협력적인 관계 정립과 역할 배분을 논의해야 한다.
