In this article I would like to propose the characteristics of "Village Council(Consejo del Pueblo)" as a sociopolitical device and institution, which maintains and encompasses all aspects of governance in a decentralized authority. A brief definition of Village Council is a "select group of people from the same village who are in charge of deciding the most important affairs of the village". The Village Council took charge of the most fundamental aspects of prehispanic Mayan society, most significantly, during the Late Postclassical era. The members of this council were respected people from the village, but not necessarily the people who held high positions within the hierarchical structure of Mayan society. It is likely that they were selected by the public in a direct way. This is the most essential bureaucratic institution in terms of the control of the political and socioeconomical affairs. The important decisions regarding legislation, the governance and jurisdiction of the village were entrusted to the council. Especially, the Village Council was responsible for monitoring and punishing the abuses of village governors. The majority of the members of the council were elders, consequently, the council was a political institution, more powerful than the governorships. The "Multepal" of Yucatán, could be an example of the Village Council during the late postclassic period.

The private security industry has expanded in proportion to economic developments throughout the world, largely because the existing security services provided by the government do not satisfy demands of various economic entities and people in the society for better security service. Therefore, it would not be unfair to say that security services by private sectors are decided by its quality, price, and customers' needs. A refined management system, however, is essential to assess qualification of security companies and their service quality, given the nature of public goods of security service. Despite the steady growth of private security industry in Korea, however, it has been continuously criticized that its security management system for better qualification of security guards, training, and private security companies have not been fully updated enough to guarantee good quality. This paper aims to gain insights to effective policy formation in the Korean private security industry, through reviewing the licensing system of private security guards and the Approved Contractor Scheme (hereinafter the ACS) in the UK- that has on one hand systematically regulated private security industry, but on other hand has enforced public-private cooperation by laying significant stress on autonomy of private security companies. The distinctive characteristic of the UK policy for the private security is that the Security Industry Authority (hereinafter the SIA), an independent authority, is leading development of the private security industry of the UK through specialized private security regulation and enhanced service quality. In addition, the UK is developing quality of security service with transparent financial management and recruitment of good quality security guards by adopting not only substantially specified regulations and standards, but the voluntary ACS system. Moreover, the SIA analyzes customers' demands for security service specializing the policy for private security through conducting a variety of surveys. With the analysis of the UK private security system, this paper suggests that the Korean government change from a non-specialized private security regulation system by the National Police Agency to an independently specialized private security authority like the SIA and adopt the compulsory licensing and the ACS system of the UK.

비파괴검사 기술의 레벨 향상과 안정화를 통한 시간적 재현성이 있는 비파괴검사 결과의 확보를 위해서는 비파괴검사 기술자의 자격 인정 및 인증(nondestructive testing qualification and certification of personnel)제도의 확립이 매우 중요하다. 비파괴검사 결과에 대한 유효성은 비파괴검사을 실시하는 사람의 능력이나 비파괴검사에 대한 책임을 지고 있는 사람의 능력에 크게 의존한다. 1974년부터 원자력 선진국들이 중심이 되어 수행된 PISC 프로그램(program for inspection of steel components) 및 EPRI 등에서는 순회시험 (piping inspection round-robin: PIRR trial) 결과 기존 비파괴검사 방법은 모의 시험편에 있는 상당히 큰 결함도 탐지하지 못하거나 정확한 결함크기를 측정하는데 실패한 경우가 있으며, 검사자의 기량 또는 신체조건에 상당한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다[1]. 국제표준화기구(ISO)의 비파괴검사 기술자의 기량인정 및 인증에 대한 국제규격안 DIS(draft international standard) 9712에서는 비파괴검사를 기획 실시 감독 감시 평가를 하기 위한 적절한 이론적 및 실무적 지식을 필요로 하는 기술자의 능력을 평가하고, 문서화하는 방법을 제공하는 절차를 제시하고 있다. 국제표준화기구에 의한 비파괴검사 기술자의 기량인정 및 인증에 대한 국제통합을 추진하는 동기는 제 3자에 의한 체계적인 인증시스템을 가지고 있지 않은 나라와 새로운 NDT 방법에 대해서 인증제도를 적용할 때 세계적인 공통성을 갖도록 유도하기 위함이다. 현재, 우리나라 비파괴검사 기술자의 기술자격 인증제도는 국가기술자격법에 의거하여 한국산업인력공단에서 주관하여 기술사, 기사, 산업기사, 기능사로 구분하여 실시하고 있다. 국제표준화기구의 비파괴검사 기술자의 자격과 인증에 대한 국제 통합화(안)[2]이 거의 마무리 단계에 있고 일본을 비롯한 많은 나라가 국제규격을 기초로 한 새로운 인증제도를 발족시켜 거의 시행 단계에 있다. 반면 국내에서는 한국비파괴검사학회(KSNT)에서 비파괴검사 기술자의 자격인정 및 인증제도의 개선방향이 제시된 바 있고 [3], 표준화위원회에서 나름대로 준비를 하고 있으나 아직 구체적인 실천단계에와 있지 못하다. 본 고에서는 최근 대폭수정 보완된 ISO/DIS 9712 국제규격(안)을 회원들에게 소개하고, 우리나라의 향후 대응방안에 관한 회원 여러분의 의견 수렴에 도움을 주고자 ISO/DIS 9712(1997)를 번역하여 제공한다.

지난해 12월 3일, 금융위원회(이하"금융위")는 금융개혁 정례 기자간담회에서 그 동안의 금융개혁 성과를 발표하였다. 지난 3월 금융개혁 추진방향 마련 시 50개의 금융개혁 실천과제를 선정하고, 규제개혁 과정에서 20개 과제를 추가 발굴하여 총 70개의 금융개혁 실천과제를 선정하였고, 그 중 (1) 제도개선이 완료되어 시행중인 과제가 24건, (2) 일부 시행중인 과제가 17건, (3) 방안은 발표했으나, 법령 개정 등 제도개선 중인 과제가 16건, 마지막으로 (4) 방안을 마련중인 과제 즉 미발표 과제가 총 13건인 것으로 밝혀졌다. 금융개혁 실천과제 중, 핀테크 생태계 구축과 관련된 과제는 5건, 인터넷 전문은행 도입과 관련된 과제는 2건 그리고 빅데이터 활성화와 관련된 과제는 2건으로 직접적인 핀테크 산업 활성화와 관련된 과제는 총 9개라고 볼 수 있다. 이 중에서 6건의 과제는 이미 제도개선이 완료되어 시행되고 있으며, 나머지 3건은 방안은 발표되었으나, 법령 개정 등 제도개선이 필요한 상태이다. 여전히 은산분리 규제 완화를 위한 은행법 개정 이슈, 신용정보법 개정을 통한 빅데이터 산업 활성화 등은 여전히 제도개선 과제나 규제 완화 방안이 구체화되지 않은 단계이다. 금융당국은 금융산업에 대해서 오프라인 산업으로서 규제마인드를 갖고 있다. 국경을 넘나들며 금융서비스가 제공되는 시대에 오프라인 산업 관점의 전통적 금융규제들을 재검토해야 한다. 금융산업에서 핀테크와 쉽게 결합하여 서비스를 창출하고, 시장에서 경쟁할 수 있도록 하는 관점에서 기존의 규제들을 재평가해야 한다. 인터넷에서는 국경을 넘어선 서비스를 막을 수 없으므로 국내형 규제에 얽매인 국내 금융회사들은 혁신적 서비스를 도입할 수 없어 궁극적으로 글로벌 인터넷 거인들이 결국 국내 금융회사들의 사업 기회를 빼앗아 가게 될 것이다. 글로벌 인터넷 기업들이 국내 금융기관을 지배하게 될 것이라는 숙명을 빨리 깨닫고 과거의 관점에서 벗어나 온라인 서비스로 기존의 서비스를 변경하는 노력이 필요하다. 결국 금융산업은 핀테크 기업들과 협업하여 기존의 규제를 완화하거나 서비스에 맞게 변화시키고, 과감하게 폐지하는 것이 필요하다.

The purpose of the study is to explore the relationship between the type of reporting weaknesses in the Internal Accounting Control System and executive compensation, and then analyze whether such relevance varies depending on the characteristics of governance structure. The analysis data used 6,343 KOSPI&KOSDAQ companies excluding the financial industry from 2011 to 2016. As a results of the study, First, executive compensation decreased in companies reporting the weaknesses of CL. Second, this relevance was further strengthened according to the governance structure. This study confirms that information on the operation results of system is an important factor in determining manager compensation. It implies that it is necessary to study reasonable compensation policies and governance structures suitable for companies. If an internal control system that affects executive compensation is added, the basis for stronger support of the research results can be prepared.

International arbitration is the important field of applying CISG and the backbone of uniform law developed by CISG. Now CIETAC tribunals like courts of contracting states apply CISG precisely, which is beneficial to improving the quality and the credit of arbitral cases. Arbitration has the characters of independence and the non-government. the legal foundation of arbitral tribunal's applying CISG are the national arbitral law, the applicable arbitral procedures and usages of arbitration, not for performing international obligations under the CISG. CIETAC mainly use China Contract Law and CISG over the cases of sale of goods. Because of no provisions on recovery of differential price loss (equal to article 75 and 76 of CISG) Chinese tribunals have more discretion in determining the sum of damages under the China Contract Law. Applying China Contract Law may not beneficial to aggrieved party.

The Cultural Properties Protection Act enacted 1962 to encourge culture level of people by preserving and using cultural properties introduced Cultural Properties Change Permission System in 2000 in order to cope with rather targeted range towards the national designated cultural properties, and introduced the Guidelines for Permission Standard regarding Construction Activities within the Historical Cultural Environment Preservation Area (2006) to complement permission process and targets, Notification of Minor Changes around the National Designated Cultural Properties (2008), etc and continuously put efforts to improve further ever since. Nonetheless, while it showed decrease in the number of process of change permission per individual cases after 2007, it began to increase again since 2010, reaching 1,554 cases by 2014 - about 29% of the cases being rejected or under observation, people living surrounding of cultural properties still experience inconveniences. This study has been carried out by creating integrated DB with total 7,403 cases of permission status from 5 Subcommittees (Building / Historic Sites / Natural Heritage / Modern Cultural Heritage / Important Folk Culture) in Cultural Heritage Committee that are related with changing status for the past 5 years (2010-2014), and by further analyzing 4,364 cases amongst, that were reviewed within historical and cultural environment preservation area - analyzed applying types and the characteristics, reviewed the improvement plans of operation guidelines for the Committee and acts of minor changes towards surroundings of the national designated cultural properties that regulate the status changing permission targets by categorizing analysis results and deriving implications. I hope that this will complement to the operational guidelines for the Committee, along with minor changing activities around cultural properties in short term, and to secure basic data for systematic improvement plans ie., for delegated works range from city/county/districts through our research. Also hope to improve administrative efficiency by reforming permission systems for building activities in historic cultural environment conservation area, and reduce inconvenience people might experience, by minimizing socioeconomic expense needed for the review.

South Korea needs reorganization of dispute resolution system due to the frequent occurrence of a case that trade secret or technique are leaked. First, the distributed various laws are established and enforced by enacting and enforcing individual laws. Therefore, the redundancy problems, the collision of individual laws, the decline in diversity, integrity, and connectivity are issues. An independent legal system is needed by Act on the Prevention and Protection of Technology Leakage. Thereby, The support system of technological protection that is sprayed in government departments such as the Small and Medium Business Administration, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, the Patent Office, the Fair Trade Commission, the Trade Committee, the National Police Agency, and the Spy Agency integrates and unifies institutionally, and it is necessary to advance a policy with functional division. Second, the Patent Tribunal, the Invention Promotion Act, the Industrial Property Right Dispute Mediation Committee by the patent law, the Industrial Technical Dispute Mediation Committee on the Industrial Technology Outflow Prevention and Protection Law and the Medium and Small Firm Dispute Mediation and Arbitration Committee on Small Business Technology Protection Support Law are installed. However, since it established the integrated law on the Act on the Prevention and Protection of Technology Leakage, it is desirable to set the merged operation of establishment on the Technical Dispute Mediation Committee under the Small and Medium Business Administration or the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy.
