This study analyzes the relationship since 1988 between National Assembly, president and political parties in Korea, and to find critical conditions for developing a mutually beneficial relationship among them. It argues that the levels of both internal power concentration and cohesiveness(or discipline) of political parties matter greatly, and applies them as theoretical framework for the historical review. By 2002, major political parties were highly concentrated in power and their discipline was strong. Consequently parties fought collectively with each other and Assemblies repeatedly saw standoffs and deadlocks. Reforms of 2002-04 that sought higher degree of party democracy and more autonomy among members of National Assembly have not been able to bring in a productive legislative-president relationship. A cohesive faction politics under the leadership of (potential) presidential candidates keeps it from growing. This study suggests further democratization of party power and more autonomy to individual Assembly members.

환경교육의 목적은 환경문제점에 대하여 자각하고 관심을 가지며 현존하는 문제점들에 대한 해결과 새로운 문제점의 예방을 위하여 개인적으로나 집단적으로 일할 지식, 기술, 태도, 동기 그리고 책임에 대하여 교육시켜 가는데 있으며 이와 같은 목적을 충족시키기 위하여 환경교육의 대상이 되는 개념으로서 경제사회발전과 환경보전의 조화라는 관점에서 관심을 모으는 ESSD개념은 유엔이 국제환경보전운동의 지침으로 삼고있는 환경적으로 건전한 지속적 개발(Environmentally Sound and Sustainable Development)개념으로서 개발은 환경용량의 범위 내에서 추구되어야 하며 지속성의 관점에서 정부와 모든 국민들은 그들 자신의 복리는 물론, 그들의 후손을 위해 환경을 보전하는데 공동의 노력을 쏟아야 할 윤리적 가치를 강조하고 있다. 우리나가가 현재 직면하고 있는 환경문제를 ESSD개년의 도입과 실천을 통하여 해결하고자 하는 의지가 있어야 할 것이며, ESSD개념에 입각하여 인관과 환경간의 관련성의 새로운 개념에 대한 인식을 국민모두가 갖도록 하는 환경교육을 통하여 환경에 관한 가치가 개개인의 생활양식은 물론 기업 환경의식이나 정부의 의사결정 과정에 구현되어야 할 것이다. ESSD개념은 환경교육에서 환경보전과 경제사회발전이 어떻게 양립될 수 있는가를 강조하는 것이 되어야 할 것이며 학교환경교육이나 일반성인을 대상으로 하는 환경교육에서는 물론 정치적 관심이나 각 부처간의 이익을 초월하여 개발과 환경보전을 역동적으로 통합시킬 수 있도록 입법부나 행정부처의 공무원을 대상으로 하는 환경교육에도 포함되어야 할 것이며 환경문제에 관련된 전문가를 교육하는 현행제도를 재평가하여 단지 단기적인 현실만이 아니라 ESSD개념에 바탕을 둔 장래 개발문제에 대처해 나갈 수 있는 환경전문가를 위한 교육과정의 설계와 교육방법론의 체계적인 연구조사가 있어야 할 것이다. 이러한 환경교육의 중요성에 대하서는 의제 21, 지방의제 21 그리고 인간정주 의제서에 계속적으로 강조되어왔으며 국내에서도 이에 대한 체계적인 차원에서의 대응이 준비되고 있으며 이에대한 많은 각별한 관심과 참여가 요구되어진다.

Political space, the area where politics takes place, is generally treated as a male-centric space. The number of female politicians is increasing, but the core of political space is still dominated by male politicians. Therefore, on the one side, female politicians use masculine rhetoric in order to show that they are equal to male politicians, and on the other side, they use feminine rhetoric like the rhetoric of the First Lady or the rhetoric of motherhood in order to emphasize the differences with male politicians and stress their novelty as female politicians. In this situation, female politicians are confronted with the difficulty that they have to keep a balance between masculine and feminine rhetoric. In this context, this study, in chapter II, analyzes the monopoly of male politicians on political space and the dominance of masculine rhetoric and emphasizes that the political space is strongly gendered. Chapter III examines the possibilities and limits of the rhetoric of the First Lady and of the rhetoric of motherhood which female politicians use in the political space to draw attention to their messages. Chapter IV suggests two strategies to change the situation of the dominance of masculine rhetoric in the political space: the strategy of mainstreaming of women and the strategy of mainstreaming of gender agendas. Lastly, this study emphasizes that we need to develop an alternative feminine rhetoric by paying attention to the diversity of women.

The purpose of this study is to examine how the politics of 'femicide(femicidio)' or 'feminicide(feminicidio) is embodied in Latin America. To this end, I tried to grasp the political nature of these terms through the debate over the terms of 'femicide' vs 'feminicidio' and the process of establishing concepts. In Latin America, the 'Declaration on Femicide' in 2008 emphasized the responsibility of the state, and as demands for countermeasures against feminism increased, each country enacted the femicide law. However, due to the lack of mechanisms to implement the law, investigations, or punishments for the perpetrators have not been properly conducted. And femicide is becoming more serious. Recently, #NiUnaMenos, the 8M International Women's Day strike, and performances started in Chile are spreading out of Latin America, gaining sympathy around the world. Also, these actions are emerging as one of the new political movements that demand a democracy with gender equality, adding different agendas according to the situation of each region, including femicide, with strong cohesion.

This study analyzed the policy decision process of the International Science Business Belt (ISBB) applying multiple stream model combining Kingdon (2013) and Howlett et al. (2014) models. We looked at what socio-political factors influenced the process and sought to find ways to promote the project of ISBB and the policy of basic science in the future. As a concrete analysis, the policy decision process was divided into policy, policy formation, and implementation policy, and the streams of problem, process, policy and politics, policy window, and policy participant were used as variables. As a result of the analysis, the stream of politics and the role of the policy-entrepreneur played an important role in the policy decision process. Politicians and government officials were more involved than the scientists.

There are three focuses in the paper. Firstly, the study identified what channels were most viewed by YouTube users to watch the 'Daejang-dong scandal,' which was the most powerful agenda to influence the candidate preference among voters during the 20th presidential election. Secondly, the study analyzed whether the political tone of the first videos was in line with that of the subsequent videos. Finally, we compared the sentiment of comments on the first and subsequent videos. The results showed that TBS 'News Factory' and 'TV Chosun News' represented liberal and conservative factions, respectively. Secondly, the political tone of channels that were viewed subsequently was neutral, but the conservative channel users left more negative comments and that was significant statistically. In addition, about 80% of the conservative and liberal channel users shared the same political tendency with the channel they watched first, and more than 90% of the comments left at the subsequent videos in line with that of at the first news. Based on these results, the study concluded that the voters tended to seek political news that was similar with their political ideology, and it was considered a sort of echo chamber phenomenon on the YouTube. The study suggests that the performance of high-quality journalism by traditional news outlet might contribute to decrease the negative influence of political contents on YouTube users.

Drawing on a case of the construction of high-tech medical complexes, this study demonstrates the process of policy formuation. Beause the construction of high-tech medical complexes involves various analytic elements, and changes of political, economic and social environment, Kingdon's Policy Stream Framework is employed for analysis. The analysis ranges from the embarkment of the Presidential Committee on Healthcare Industry Innovation (PCHII) in August, 2005, to the enactment of High-tech Medical Complex Special Act in March, 2008. The analysis illuminates that policy formulation from agenda setting to enactment in the area of biomedical industry involves multiple factors and policy streams. An enactment of policy agenda particularly depends on the roles of multiple stakeholders as welll as policy leaders.

In this study, we analyzed the television news frames related to private school irregularities. Television broadcasting stations have not dealt with underlying problems of private school irregularities, but their reporting have been focused more on stating the situations. While Public announcing frame, Interference and solutions frame, Moral hazard frame and Protests and strikes frame have been applied in reporting, Autonomy highlighted frame and Publicity highlighted frame which are fundamental to the existence of private schools hardly appeared. In particular, the adhesion between private schools and political power has been continuously pointed out to be a cause of raising problems, whereas articles with such perspectives were hard to find. As a result, television broadcasting stations are required to change the way in reporting of private school irregularities in order for a lively discussion about them as the social agenda.

This study explored how South Korean newspapers covered North Korea's second nuclear test in May of 2009. Findings show that South Korean newspapers mostly reported North Korea's nuclear experiment in relatively negative tones. Their coverage mainly focused on the influences of nuclear threat from the North on the military, political and economic areas in South Korea. However, the media's agenda settings and frames were not similar in terms of each paper's political and ideological inclination. Whereas the progressive papers, such as the Hankyoreh and the Kyunghyang Shinmun, recognized that the current nuclear issue in Korean peninsula is getting worse because of South Korea's rigorous pressure on North Korea, the conservative papers, such as the Chosun Ilbo and the Donga Ilbo, see that the deadlock between North and South mainly comes from the system malfunction of North Korea. To prevent the current impasse, the left-side papers emphasized to develop the six-party talk in dealing with North Korean issue, while the right-wing papers paid attentions to the West's sanctions on North Korea and ensuring national security.

This study is an empirical study to see if the existing media effects have an effect on the perception of the audience in the media such as newspapers, TV, movies, etc., and whether the viewing of YouTube, an internet-based new media without gatekeeper, can affect the perception of the audience. For this study, 76 university students were divided into two groups, one group was asked to watch YouTube videos about no-buy campaign of Japanese products, and the other group was asked to watch short films for four weeks each, and then the perception and attitude of the issue were measured and analyzed through a survey. The results of the analysis showed that the audience who watched YouTube videos thought that no-buy campaign was more important than the audience who did not watch YouTube videos, and that they would participate more actively in no-buy campaign. The results of this study can be meaningful in that it confirmed the effects of the agenda setting effect and the priming effect of YouTube. It is expected that the theory of the media effect of YouTube will be established as the study on the audience effect in various fields such as politics, economy, society, culture of YouTube continues.
