The concern on new regional geography in Korea has emerged in the 1990s under the influence of paradigm shift of Western geography, that is, the withering of positivist geography and the introduction of grand social theories into geography. New regional geography in Korea also seems to have developed in the rapidly changing process of glocalization of capitalism which has accompanied with the transformation toward post-Fordism with high-tech innovation, development of transportation and communication technology with time-space compression, and increasing social and cultural mobility with change of identity. But it can be pointed out that discussion on methodology for regional geography in Korea has been shrunken since the mid 2000s, and there has been relatively little empirical research with synthetic approach to region. But more concern on methodology in terms of place, territory, network, scale, etc. rather than the concept of region itself has increased, and empirical researches on regions in specific fields of human geography have been promoted. It is argued that the traditional distinction between synthetic and analytic approaches seems no longer significant. But geographers need to extend the concept of region in relation to other diverse spatial concepts, and to purse simultaneously structural analysis on glocalization process and practical strategies responding positively to the process.

The $14^{th}$ general election which should be held by August 2018 has been a dominant factor for Malaysian politics, economy, social changes and foreign policy in 2017. UMNO, the dominant party within the ruling governmental coalition, has focused on securing Malay support, voters which made them to sought political cooperation with PAS, Malaysia's Islamist opposition party. A consequent event followed by the strategic ties between the two parties is the rise of political Islam in Malaysia though PAS' 'Islamization' or 'desecularization' has never been adopted by UMNO. The rise of political Islam and Malay support have become the most important factor for the next election, which increasingly enhanced the role of 3R of Malaysia politics; Race, Religion, and Royalty. The Pakatan Harapan (PH), the newly formed opposition coalition without PAS, has elected Mahathir Mohamad, the former Prime Minister, as its candidate for prime minister. Malaysian economy and foreign policy seem to be subordinated to politics. Stabilizing ringgit and restoring economic growth enabled the Najib's government to reveal 'election budget' for 2018. Najib has spoken out Islam-related international issues including the Rohingya crisis and Jerusalem issue. It is to some extent the extension of domestic politics. The rise of political Islam will be a highly influential not only in the coming election but in the political and social development in the aftermath of the election.

This study explored the phenomenon of heterosexual women embracing Boys' Love manga within the heteronormativity context from a feminist psychological perspective. Specifically, the issue of genre characteristics of Boys' Love manga, women's psychological mechanism of reading Boys' Love manga, and the functions and effects of embracing Boys' Love manga were discussed. As a theoretical framework of analysis, I started from the classical psychoanalysis and critically adopted the concepts of the various camps of feminism, queer theory, and Huizinga's Homo Rudens. The results show that Boys' Love manga can be classified as a sub-category of the romance genre, which fulfills heterosexual women's desires of eternal love and equal partnership. From these wish-fulfilling fantasies, heterosexual women attempt to be decontextualized from the heteropatriarchism, to enjoy distancing and voyeuristic separation from the characters in the texts, and to disturb the dichotomous gender system through gender reversal identification. These processes, which can be regarded as a women's play challenging sexual rigorism, ultimately bring about an awareness of the female sexual subjectivity.

This paper is, first of all, to explore what kinds of character are implied in Korean policies and support programme for foreign immigrants, secondly to analyze immigrants' recognition on them in terms of their types and dwelling places, and finally to suggest some measures to improve policies and support programme. Policies for foreign immigrants are often classified into three models of assimilation, of differential exclusion, and of multiculturalism, but the marginalization of foreign immigrants is suggested either as a new model or as implied in all of those models. As a result of questionary survey, it is found out that foreign immigrants, irrelevant to their type, recognize their policies as mixing those characters. Finally, multiculturalism with distributive equality and recognition justice to overcome marginationalization, network governance for foreign immigrant policies to reflect their needs and participation, and sustainable and multicultural programmes for improving regional identity, ensuring covil rights, supporting comprehensive welfare, and multicultural education are suggested as measures to improve foreign immigrants' quality of life.

Technology innovation of digital convergence in recent years of the media sector has produced a series of significant changes in journalist labor. This study analyzes how recent introduction of convergent newsroom changed the nature of journalist labor and what strategy the management used to control journalists within the technologically innovated working condition with case of CBS. As the labor process theory tells us, the analysis found that technological innovation in the newsroom has encouraged a couple of aspects regarding labor process. First, losing control over their own labor journalists have undergone the process of significant deskilling. Second, the management have made a constant effort to introduce ideological and political apparatuses with twofold purposes, effective control over workers on one hand and concealing oppressive labor conditions on the other. The effort generated journalists' acceptance of new news-making routine and their consent on labor-management culture founded upon naive familism, which at last resulted in reinforcement of corporate power and isolation of labor society by separating internal labor market.

In this essay, I examine the interactions of chronotopes in the narrative of Gangnam Blues, a film written and directed by Yu Ha and released in 2015. Bakhtin's chronotope, the connectedness of temporal and spatial relationships in literary narratives, provides the background for the representability of events and becomes the organizing center for the events. Each chronotope offers a different way of acting, interacting and understanding experience, and chronotopes can interact with each other in a single text or between the reader and the represented world. Gangnam Blues is a gangster movie, first of all, showing an individual's illusion of an unlimited possibility for achieving wealth and power. At the same time, the film describes the government's project to transform Gangam, a rural area in the south of the Han, into a new downtown and residential area for Seoul. As the world in the narrative and the world of the author or the reader are all chronotopic, we can see the interactions of chronotopes between the narrative of an individual and the historical narrative, as well as between the narrative about the beginning of Gangnam and the audience's perception of the present Gangnam. In this film, the main character's ambition is shown as part of the social desire for rapid economic achievements in the 1970s, along with high social mobility. The social desire can be explained as envy, as it is fueled by social comparisons and competitions. The main character's pursuit of money and power through the possession of Gangnam land overlaps with the envious desire for the present Gangnam shared by many. The individual's exceptional ambition and violence are not fully examined in this text. Moreover, the film's dependence on the feelings of envy to represent the individual's choice and violence can be a symptom of the lack of critical distance from social desire and envy.

본 연구의 목적은 2008년 후반에 발생한 국제금융위기에 대응하여 조직 개편을 선택한 기업과 그 기업 내의 근로자들 실태 파악을 하는데 있다. 특히 기업구조조정 명목으로 단행된 해고를 모면한 근로자들 (생존자)의 상태를 그들이 지각하는 각 개인의 관리자에 대한 만족도와 그들의 직무관련태도인 직무만족, 조직적 몰입 그리고 이직 의도 간의 관계 관점에서 살피고자 한다. 관리자에 대한 만족도는 근로자들의 직무 관련 태도 변수와 관련되어 사회적 선행변수로 선택되었으며 직무관련태도는 결과변수로 선택하였다. 본 연구를 통해 생존자들의 조직 내 직무관련태도에 관한 이해를 높이는데 필요한 정보를 표출해내어 그들의 실태를 파악하는데 하나의 목적을 두었으며 그들의 관리자와의 사회적 관계가 그들에게 미치는 영향을 파악하는 것이 또 하나의 목적이라 하겠다. 이상과 같은 관계 파악을 통해 얻은 정보로 관련기업이 단기적으로 성공적인 자립을 하여 장기적으로 경쟁력 있는 조직으로 성장할 수 있는 인적자원전략을 제공하는데 2차적인 목적을 두고 있다. 본 연구는 이상과 같은 목적을 달성하고자 그 유의성이 증명된 현존하는 설문을 활용한 조사기법을 채택하여 실증연구를 하였다. 수집한 자료는 SPSS 17.0과 LISREL 8.5을 사용하여 연구모형과 연구의 가설들을 검증하였다. 연구목적을 달성하고자 채택된 가설들은 기존의 문헌연구를 토대로 세워졌다. 연구대상은 태국 북부지역의 대표도시인 치앙마이 내 관광호텔 종사자들로서 외부적으로는 2008년 국제금융위기와 그에 따른 경제침체, 내부적으로는 극심한 정치적 사회적 불안에 의한 관광객의 급감소와 조직의 자구책으로 행해진 조직재구조 차원에서의 해고를 이겨낸 근로자들, 즉 생존자들이었다. 가설검증을 통해 입증된 연구결과에 의하면 1) 근로자들의 관리자에 대한 만족은 그들의 직무만족, 정서적 조직몰입과 지속적 조직몰입에 영향을 미치는 것으로 검증됐다. 2) 근로자들의 관리자에 대한 만족은 그들의 이직의도에는 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 검증됐다. 3) 근로자들의 직무만족은 그들의 이직의도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 검증되었다. 4) 근로자들의 조직적 몰입과 이직의도 간의 관계에 있어서는 오직 경제적 성격의 지속적 조직몰입만 영향을 미치는 것으로 검증되었다. 이러한 연구 결과는 기존의 타 연구 결과와 기본적인 맥락은 같게 나왔으나 근로자들의 정서적인 면의 부재는 2008년 후반 당시의 독특한 태국의 사회적, 경제적 그리고 문화적 실태를 보여주는 것이 아닌 가 사료된다. 특히 근로자들이 그들의 직장과의 관계와 관련된 의사결정을 가치가 아닌 경제적인 요소에 의존한다는 결과 그리고 상관인 관리자가 이러한 태도에 전혀 영향력을 미치지 못한다는 결과는 전통적으로 감성적이며 집단주의적인 동양적 문화가 지배하리라고 예상했던 태국에서는 이례적인 결과였다. 그러나 관리자들이 그들의 직무만족 그리고 조직적 몰입에 영향을 주며 직무만족이 이직 의도에 영향을 미친다는 결과와 지속적 조직몰입이 이직의도에 영향을 미친다는 결과는 장기적으로 적극적인 관리자 교육을 통해 근로자들을 조직에 정서적으로도 올바르게 안착시키고 긍정적인 구성원으로 존재하면서 조직에 기여할 수 있는 그들의 역할을 기대할 수 있다고 볼 수도 있다. 이 점은 매우 중요한데 그 이유는 해고를 이겨낸 근로자들은 그 조직이 미래를 짊어지는 마지막 기대변수이기 때문이다.

South Korea is currently facing multiculturalism, appropriately demanding broadened view and access to the study of Unification, especially in terms of who should be the subject. In congruence, recent Unification Education studies are proposing values stressed in Multiculturalism to function as the core ground, upon which other traits and contents are to follow. Similarly, Christian Education field is also reflecting the recent trend, welcoming 'everyone' to participate in preparing reunification of Korean Peninsula. However, most studies consist of suggesting and introducing directions for new approaches, not so much of dealing with systems or guidelines for practical practices. Information provided in fragments can rather cause confusion in understanding the concept, and lack of specific guidelines can soon lead to poor performances. In this study, Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is introduced as a methodology to be examined, whether it could effectively embody and systemize the newly emerged Multicultural Christian Unification Education. Therefore, the purpose of this study is 1) to generalize the concept of Christian unification education introduced in the multicultural era and 2) examine whether UDL is suitable for uniformizing and spreading the Multicultural approach of Christian Unification Education. Specifically, this study highly focused on examining whether UDL is a suitable methodology to achieve the goal of Multicultural Christian unification education, while uniformizing the diversities within multicultural Christian Unification Education. Through a thorough research, it was proved that the purpose and characteristics of multicultural Christian unification education are similar to those of UDL in that both focus on accepting heterogeneity as something "different" rather than something "wrong." Also, it was found that the application of the theory and guidelines of UDL can effectively unify while respecting the diverse methodologies used in Multicultural Christian Education.

Design prototype is described from the stately aspect as a principle of formative art, and from the shapeable aspect of physical feature. The prototype can be a common denominator which is contained in one nation's culture, art and life, as the thing which corresponds to the daily industrial craft, architecture and art's production intention and activity with the thought and background of the culture. We have formed the design prototypes with time and space in the process which absorbs and integrates the new culture. Modern Korean design's prototype can be seen in the late Chosun. As the upper culture and sub-culture were combined, the active culture was developed. Nobody can deny that Chosun's culture and art becomes a basis of today's design and Korea's beauty. In creating the design prototype, the natural environmental factors such as topography and climate are the most important. Such natural environmental factor led the design recognition of art and craft art, as well as an architecture and indoor environment's form. Korea design produced the artisan sprite which is devoted to a moral duty and instinct as our nation's nature and emotion, and ensured the emotional process not the rational process. So, it created naturalism which accepted the material and shape. Our design prototype's path tracking as an energy of future society's new design identity, can be the important theme for our design development.
