Although many researchers propose that market-driven journalism is incurred by the worsening of financial situation as a result of intensifying competition in mass media industry, few studies investigated this claim with actual news data. This study analyzed the headline news of eight major newspapers and two terrestrial TV companies to find the weakening of 'orientating-journalism' function of Korean news media. The results revealed that the duplication rate of news items among ten news companies were decreasing, and the range of news subjects were broadened into diverse topics during last ten years. Therefore it seemed that the tendency of monopolization of a certain events or issues was weakening in news reporting. The financial situation of news companies is an important factor in explaining the change of news reporting. The companies with more worse financial situation have higher duplication rate of news topics along as the more amount of soft news items, leading to the gradual deterioration of their own voices in reporting. The rate of 'independent issue report' was also less than seven precent, thus their reporting is evaluated as having many limitations. In sum, the major newspapers and network broadcasting companies are still exerting strong influences in agenda-setting, but they(mostly newspapers) are suffering from the financial problems, resulting the deterioration of performing orientation journalism function. This study concluded with remarks about the role of major news media in current changing situation.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of attribute agenda-setting and priming through content analysis and a survey about Particulate Matter($PM_{10}$ & $PM_{2.5}$) using both promotional news and general news. The study results were as follows. First, promotional news and general news were found to showcase similar cognitive attributes. Second, the results did not show a significant relationship between highlighted attributes in media coverage and the public's salient attributes, but media attributes had been generally reflected in the public's perception because the public was highly aware of the importance of all media attributes. Third, the recognition of the public's attribute importance affected the direction of public opinion, which resulted in the acceptance of priming effects. Meanwhile, the recognition of the public's attribute importance towards economic damage, international cooperation, individual response, and the recognition of promotional news had affected risk perception. Furthermore, the recognition of promotional news and involvement appeared to have an interaction effect on risk perception.

This study examined research trends via network analyses of keywords appeared in academic research articles about news reports in South Korea during the last 10 years from 2006 to 2015. Keyword network analyses of 4410 keywords from 1108 articles suggested that framing, agenda setting, third-person effect, selective exposure, and uses and gratification were main theories but most studies used framing theory. Research areas included news reports on politics, economics, science, world issues, or tour. However, research on news reports covering culture, sports or daily life were not identified. In terms of media, research on both traditional and emerging media were ample. Research on broadcasting new, online news, and social media were frequently observed.

This paper is mainly associated with setting out an agenda for the transformation of security by creating a new framework for a security system, which can maximise its effectiveness. Noticeably, this research shows empirically that crimes are getting a major cost to organisations, which if reduced by security and investigations could reap substantial rewards to the finances of an organisation. However, the problem is that the delivery of security is frequently delegated to personnel (e.g. security guards) with limited training, inadequate education, and no real commitment to professionalism - 'sub-prime' security, finally causing security failures. Therefore, if security can be enhanced to reduce the crime cost, this will produce financial benefits to business, and consequently could produce a competitive advantage. For this, the paper basically draws upon Luke's theoretical framework for deconstructing 'power' into three dimensions. Using this three-dimensional approach, the paper further sets out a model of how security can be enhanced, utilising a new Security Risk Management (SRM) model, and how can this SRM model create competitive advantage in business. Finally, this paper ends with the six strategies needed to enhance the quality of security: refiguring as SRM, Professional Staff, Accurate Measurement, Prevention, Cultural Change, and Metrics.

본 연구는 2011년 "원자력안전법" 제정 사례에 있어 정책의제 설정 과정을 동태적으로 이해하기 위해 다중흐름모형을 활용하여 분석을 수행하였다. 연구범위는 이명박 정부와 제18대 국회임기가 겹치는 기간인 2009년부터 2011년 간 기간으로서, 동 기간은 UAE 원전수출과 후쿠시마 원전사고라는 정 반대의 초점사건이 발생하면서 두 차례 의제설정 여부를 결정하는 정책의 창이 개방되었다. 분석결과, 문제의 흐름 영역에서는 정부의 원자력 정책에 있어 진흥과 규제기능을 별도 법령으로 분리하고 독립된 예산 및 전담조직을 구성하는 체계를 구축해야 한다는 문제는 장기간 존재해왔다. 1990년대부터 소수의 법학자들을 중심으로 문제인식과 대안제시가 이뤄지는 정책의 흐름이 발전되어 왔는데, 이후 UAE 원전수출 이후 2010년에 이르러서야 본격적으로 표출집단인 관료와 국회의원을 통해 구체적 대안이 제시되었고, 2011년 후쿠시마 원전사고 직후인 5월 원자력안전법이 제정되었다. 분석결과, 2009년 UAE원전수출 이후, 수출 확대 목적으로 제시된 원자력 규제 독립 법안이 통과되지 못했던 것에 반해, 2011년 후쿠시마 이후 원자력안전법이 통과 된 이유는 대안의 가치정합성, 사회여론, 정치환경 등 정치의 흐름이 크게 작용한 것으로 분석되었다.

Sustainable development has always been the top agenda of many governments. Especially, the concept of 'Ecological Civilisation (EC)' is gaining substantial attention from China's new leaders. However, regional government officers may manipulate or change top level policy in order to suit their own interests or if they are unable to meet the varied pressures of achieving the set measures. Thus, policy makers can unwittingly cause a negative or positive impact on the firms or regional development through the implementation of EC regulations and the requirement to measure, monitor and report performance measurement (PM) information. This can potentially have significant consequences for the firms, the industry sector, and China as a whole. The aim of this research is to explore and evaluate previous work focusing on the relationship and links between regulation and PM. This research will make a significant knowledge contribution to the emerging and yet important area in EC related research. A good understanding of the linkages between PM and EC will assist policy makers to better formulate suitable regulatory control mechanisms at the field level. Moreover, they may take the PM and EC linkages into consideration when setting policy frameworks by minimizing the negative effects and take advantages of the positive consequences.

This study focuses on the impact of China's system on the goals and strategies of public diplomacy for its actors and actions. In other words, China, which aims to assimilate the Western political values and systems, is special in setting the goals and strategies pursued through public diplomacy. Therefore, China often uses the historical and cultural agenda that it shares mainly in order to promote public diplomacy in the neighboring countries of Northeast Asia such as Taiwan and Korea, who have different systems. This phenomenon is an important key of explaining the vulnerability of China's public diplomacy in the face of political and security insecurity. Also, because of China's authoritarian politics and national-social relations, China can pursue efficient public diplomacy. On the other hand, however, such phenomenon provides an answer to why China's public diplomacy is not an effective buffer in the face of political and security conflicts with neighboring countries. Based on this framework, this study seeks to find answers to Why is China's public diplomacy not strong enough to ease political and security conflicts with neighboring countries?
