Since the 1980s, the academic interests on the regional geography have been renewed. This trend is usually called 'Renaissance' of the regional geography. Given this context, to explore diverse theories and methodologies in the regional geography is of much significance. Particularly, to examine the regional geography in Germany widens the understanding of not only the history, strength, and weakness of the regional geography, but also the discipline's status in the field of geography. This paper discusses the regional geography in Germany before World War II, focusing on varieties of theories and methods as well as the historical trajectory of the German regional geography. This discussion may well be significant in that 'Laenderkunde' became an important paradigm in the discipline of geography in Germany during the pre-World War II period.

TerraSAR-X, launched in June 2007, and TanDEM-X, June 2010, are remote-sensing satellites with 1M resolution that are capable of observing the ground even during the nighttime and poor weather conditions. The two satellites had been developed under a public-private partnership between the German Aerospace Centre and Airbus in the interest of the commercial marketing for German satellite data. However, the data of high-grade earth remote-sensing system, such as those of the satellites, has been produced by a military satellite and thus used under limited circumstances in Germany. Therefore, a legislation to commercialize the German satellite data and to protect its national security is needed. For this, SatDSiG was enacted in December 2007. Thus this article will contain the main contents of SatDSiG and its implication for Korea, which stared to export data of Kompsat 3, 3A and 5 in 2018.

This paper attempts to find out implications based on the comparative analysis of overseas expansion model between the Korean insurance companies and the German one. There are three types of the strategies of the overseas-expansion-model of insurer, i.e. customer-oriented localized strategy, niche market-oriented strategy, and growing market-oriented strategy. From the review of related literatures and through an interview conducted by the insurance specialist, the findings are some differences between Korean and German insurance companies, when they go into foreign insurance markets. Th significant differences between Korean and German insurers are a customer oriented localized strategy and niche market oriented strategy. The Korean insurer shows a strength on the overseas-expansion-strategy, but the most clients of the Korean insurer on overseas markets are also Korean companies and Korean immigrants. The Korean legal expenses insurance market is yet in its embryonic stage, while the German legal expenses insurance company is pushing ahead with a strategy focused on localization and niche market on the legal expenses insurance product. In conclusion, like a case of the German legal expenses insurance company, the Korean insurer needs a customer oriented localized strategy as well as a niche market oriented strategy on the overseas insurance market.

This study aims to examine the integration process of educational system and school structure of the former East Germany into the Federal Republic of Germany following German unification. More specifically, the study focuses on drawing some policy suggestions and implications for achieving integration of South and North Korean educational system in a unified Korea. In fact, the school structure in the former East Germany had been integrated into West German educational system and school structure before and after official German unification by way of so called transitional process. The results of the study indicate that the integration process of school structure in the former East Germany into West German educational system was quite successful with stable management by means of various transitional measures and reaching an agreement between East and West Germany. Additionally, the study presents that local characteristics regarding school structure in the former East Germany were recognized and introduced in the integration process and they managed to handle the social change situation after German unification flexibly. However, it shows some shortcomings because it had been carried out in too short a period of time and the positive factors of school structure in the former East Germany had not been enough taken account into the integration process, along with the lack of inner comprehensive relevant infrastructure. Furthermore, the study points out that German case of school structure and its integration process after German unification has implications for specific ways Korea should pursue to achieve integration of South and North Korean educational system in a unified Korea. To be more specific, it suggests how we come up with plans and measures to establish integration of South and North Korean school structure in a stable way especially in terms of dealing with North Korean school structure and building an inner infrastructure.

Zusammenfassung : Seit den 1990er Jahren hat Muenchen sich zu einem der fuehrenden europaeischen Biotechnologie Clustern entwickelt. Cluster, d.h. raeumliche Konzentrationen von miteinander vernetzten Unternehmen und Institutionen entlang einer Wertschoepfungskette, stellt fuer Unternehmen und Regionen einen erheblichen Wettbewerbsvorteil dar. Ziel dieser Beitrag ist es, die Herausbildung und Entwicklung des Innovationsclusters in Deutschland, am Beispiel von Biotech Cluster Muenchen zu analysieren. Im Folgenden wird zunaechst der Versuch unternommen, eine uebergreifende Kozeption regionaler Unternehmensclustern theoretisch zu eroerten. Darauf aufbauend wird anhand des Biotech Clusters Muenchen die Struktur und Entwicklung des Innovationsclusters empirisch aufgezeigt.

This paper aims to examine the background, process, and characteristics of the territorial reform of local governments in West Germany (the Federal Republic of Germany) in the 1960s and 70s. During this period the territorial structure and function of municipality (Gemeinde), county (Kreis) and county-free town (Kreisfreie Stadt) as local governments were fundamentally reformed. The territorial reform of local governments paid special attention to merge the small-sized municipalities and to create the joint authorities in order to build the system of central localities. There had been criticism on the uniform boundary delimitation, confusion of regional identity, erosion of local autonomy and emphasis on the regional planning. But the territorial reform of the period has contributed to improve the performance of public administration and to strengthen the service delivery and planning capacity.

독도는 울릉도에서 동남쪽으로 92km떨어진 곳으로 우리 나라에서는 가장 동쪽에 위치한 섬이다. 이 섬의 위도는 북위 37 $^{\circ}$14‘’, 동경 131 $^{\circ}$52‘’이며 총89개의 부속도와 암초로 구성되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 독도 수중 생태 조사의 일환으로 독도 주변 해역에 서식하는 어류상을 파악하고자 1999년 5월 12 - 15일 사이에 수중 다이빙을 통한 조사를 실시하였으며, 조사에 의해 확인된 어류 목록의 작성과 수중 생태에 대하여 보고하는 바이다. (중략)

복어는 tetrodotoxin이라는 맹독을 함유하고 있음에도 불구하고 매운탕등 여러 가지로 요리하여 많은 사람들이 즐겨 먹는 음식의 하나이다. 복어 요리시에는 독을 함유한 내장이나 간장을 제외하고 세척하여 독을 제거하지만 조리과정에서 독이 완전히 제거되지 않거나 독성이 강한 복어의 경우는 독소가 남아 있어 식중독의 원인이 된다. 최근 부산에서는 2건의 복어요리에 의한 중독으로 수명의 중독환자가 발생하는 사고가 발생하였는바 다행히 사망하지는 않았으나, 복어요리는 항상 식중독의 위험성이 있음을 보여주고 있다. (중략)
