  • 본 논문은 과학철학자 캐롤린 머천트의 2020년 신간 『인류세와 인문학: 기후변화부터 지속가능성의 새로운 시대까지』(The Anthropocene and the Humanaties: From Climate Changes to a New Age of Sustainability)를 중심으로 2020년까지의 인류세 담론 지형을 살펴보고 머천트가 주창하는 환경 인문학적 렌즈를 통해 지구의 생태위기에 대응할 수 있는 인문학적 성찰을 고구해 보고자 한다. 생태주의와 페미니즘이 결합된 '생태 페미니즘'의 선구자라 할 수 있는 캐롤린 머천트는 『인류세와 인문학』을 출간함으로써 가장 최근에 인류(anthropos)가 주도하는 지질시대를 뜻하는 '인류세(anthropocene)' 담론에 뛰어들었다. 머천트는 자신의 대표작인 1980년 저서, 『자연의 죽음』(The Death of Nature: Women, Ecology, and the Scientific Revolution)을 통해 근대 서구의 자연관이 자연을, 그리고 자연과 동일시되는 여성을 비유적으로 함께 살해해 왔음을 고발한 바 있다. 『인류세와 인문학』에서 머천트는 인류세 시대가 '제2의 자연의 죽음'을 행하고 있다며, 환경 인문학적 통찰력을 바탕으로 인간과 비인간 자연의 '지속가능성'과 '동반자 관계'를 만들어갈 것을 주문한다. 본고는 21세기에 들어선 인류가 기후변화로 인한 지구의 생태위기를 체감하는 시점에 발생한 코로나 19 감염병으로 가중된 지구의 인류세적 위기를 극복하기 위해 인문학이 할 수 있는 역할, 즉 환경 인문학적 대안을 생태 페미니즘적 관점에서 고찰해볼 것이다.

  • 최근에 인문학의 위기와 함께 인문학 전공자들의 실업률이 상당히 높다는 통계가 서울노동권익센터와 고용노동부에서 발표되었다. 곧이어, 정부가 발표한 '인문계 전공자의 취업을 촉진시키는 방안'을 중심으로 인문 전공자 취업 정책을 확인할 수 있었다. 이를 계기로 인문학적 상상력과 공학적 상상력의 융합으로 인한 부작용을 인식할 수 있었으며, 인문학도들의 취업위기를 극복하기 위한 인문학적 융합 교육의 방향성을 살펴보았다. 그리고 인문학은 거시적 인문융합보다는 미시적 인문융합에서 활발하게 통섭이 이루어져야 하며, 미시적 융합이 탄탄하게 통섭되어 스토리텔링의 완성도를 높였을 때, 비로소 거시적 융합의 효과는 극대화된다는 사실을 확인하였다. 인문학 전공자들의 실업률을 타개하기 위해 융합형 인재 양성이 시급하며, 학제간 융합시스템에 의한 프로젝트를 가동시키는 것이 최상의 방법이라는 결과를 돌출시킬 수 있었다.

  • The purpose of this paper is to 1)examine the current state of cultural studies in Korea with a focus on recent discourses about its 'crisis' and 2)attempt to find some ways out of these dilemmas in drama/theatre/performance studies. As Raymond Williams redefined 'culture' as 'a whole way of life,' performance studies has expanded the boundary of 'performance' from traditional performing arts onto almost everything that can be studied and analyzed 'as' performance. Performance is not only the final product on display but a whole process that includes training, workshop, and rehearsal of culture. According to Richard Schechner, workshop and rehearsal are the most critical and creative 'liminal' phases that allow traditional knowledge and alternative challenges to coexist in conflict and intentionally delay the final decision by putting itself in a perpetual process. From this view, this essay attempts to find an-no matter how limited and temporary-answer to or a possible exit from political and theoretical aporias of cultural studies.

  • 본 연구에서는 현대 한국의 다문화, 다가치 사회로의 변화에 대처하고, 최근에 제기된 인문학 위기와 관련하여 이들에 대한 해결책을 마련한다는 의미에서, 한국 문화의 정체성 확립과 그 발전 방향을 모색하며, 이를 바탕으로 한국 문화콘텐츠 개발의 필요성과 방향을 논의한다. 본 연구는 두 가지 방향에서 문제의식을 갖고 연구된다. 그 하나는 오늘날과 같은 다문화, 다가치 사회에서 한국 문화의 정체성과 그 발전 방향을 모색한다는 점이고 다른 하나는 최근 제기되고 있는 인문학의 위기에 대한 논의와 더불어 문화의 기저에 있는 인문학적 지식의 중요성을 인식하고, 한국 전통 사상을 재정립하고 그것을 문화콘텐츠와 연계하여, 문화보편성으로서의 한국 문화의 정체성을 확립함과 동시에 그것의 발전 방향을 모색함이다. 본 연구에서는 한국 문화의 핵심 내용을 한국 전통 사상으로 부터 대략, 인(仁)(사랑), 화(和), 풍류정신 으로 보았다. 또한 이러한 한국 문화의 핵심 개념을 문화콘텐츠와 연계하여 영화, 음악, 만화, 에니메이션, 게임, 케릭터 개발, 한국 문화재의 디지털 복원 그리고 한국 문화 체험 프로그램 개발을 위한 기획 등의 방향을 제시한다.

  • Modern medicine has early experienced the absence of mimesis and has been trying to replace the absence with objective grounds and experimental data. However, as medicine became science, the crisis of medicine spread more widely. Microscopic powers and violences are invisible, but individuals are powerless and vainly unable to resist. The anguish or introspection about the situation is sometimes described in stories such as An Engagement by Lee Eung Jun. An Engagement is mentioned in this article due to the writer's attitude, which shows his introspection and desire for harmony through the wounds of each trivial character. The writer is unceasingly talking about suffering people in his story and his seriousness enables readers to find his stronger sympathy over life and death than in any other medical stories. In fact, it is impossible for readers to comprehend the confusing propositions which the writer pours out, and even uncomfortable to read the story. Nevertheless, the propositions are always in contact with reality. Perhaps it is not the writer's confusing propositions that make us uncomfortable. It might be ourselves who are always alienated and starved. We can say that the characters' pains and wounds are phantom pains caused by the absence of mimesis. Since there is no affected area, their pains cannot be measured by only scientific medicine. However, the current medical profession regards objective research evidences as absolute truth and allows them to be the sole criterion. Although scientific skills such as DNA analysis and MRI scan can be the substitutes for doctors' judgment, so much of medicine is still interpersonal relationships. An Engagement. As a person promises to marry another, as all beings together in the world promise to subordinate to one another, every subject is consistently a valuable part of each other for the writer's eyes. He is aware that it is originally impossible to get engaged to the world, but he does not give up the possibility of genuine communication. In today's post-modernism society, where a large number of pathological views define the members and the world itself, endless questioning of existence and digging into pathology will be the only way to reduce the gap between individuals and their world. This article does not say that a literary work will lead the change of medical paradigm. It sprang from a desire for medical humanities to gain more interest of the medical field, where the encounter between literature and medicine is still unfamiliar, and to make medical education recognize the importance of humanities. Starting with this work, I believe that the humanities will help us to find the solution to the age of absence of mimesis and to the crisis of medicine.

  • Recently Korea has stepped into a stage of sluggish development, and the unemployment of young people has become a major issue. Especially in 1998 IMF economic shock was influential in formulating government policy and social economic structure on employment. Restructuring now becomes everyday words and further restructuring is already under way. Owing to the growing economic crisis and resultant unemployment and initial appointment shall be considered conditional. Young job seekers are grappling with mastering their native language and unnecessary experiences. These unnecessary experiences are needless waste of time and money. Educational system in university may be affected by environmental changes in population of students and business crisis. Sometimes the departments made a very low rate of employment may be abolished or merged in university. The government will demand us in the work of reform by doing NCS. The government is now ask to teach, train and employ students on the basis of NCS especially in high-school, job training center, and college and university. NCS has advantages and disadvantages. NCS may reduce waste of time and money to make unnecessary experiences, provide standard course to prepare educational system. It will be a big help to adapt properly and make better employment system. The most negative element of the program is application to humanities and social sciences by the same standard with technology and engineering department in the university. Standardization of each educational course will not react quickly to rapidly changing situations in the future.

  • This study aims to understand human resource management in the Library of the House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia (DPR RI) during the COVID-19 pandemic. This institution had to change its work procedures, including its management of human resources. The research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data was collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis, carried out from October to December 2020. The findings show that working from home practices had the following impacts: reduced ability to concentrate while working; many forced changes to the work programme; and problems of miscommunication due to work instructions being conveyed through a WhatsApp group. In response to the situation, the planning function of management was used to suspend the recruitment of interns; the organizing function was divided up tasks into two or three working days a week; the actuating function was seen in the willingness of leadership to motivate staff and to optimize resources by providing training; and the controlling function was realized in an online presence and online reporting mechanisms. It was concluded that the implementation of human resource management in the library was achieved through flexibility and staff empowerment. This involved carrying out initiatives and controlling their effectiveness in response to whatever changes were required by the latest pronouncements from government. Obstacles were still encountered in the implementation of these changes, especially in relation to the organizing function of management, where some conflict was seen between the DPR RI librarians.

  • With the advent of COVID-19, the world economy has undergone enormous losses and unprecedented crises. Moreover, this pandemic has put a significant effect on all business organizations, comprising the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) sector. MSMEs have been continuing to develop business strategies and are eager to compete in the market. The COVID-19 pandemic has shifted the full focus of MSMEs from 'business growth' to 'business survival' worldwide. E-commerce readiness plays a crucial role in a time of uncertainty and crisis during COVID-19 and affects the durability and sustainability of the business. This study attempts to study the readiness of online business and "E-commerce" adoption of MSMEs and its contribution to economic growth by utilizing both qualitative and quantitative techniques in the case of India. We use content analysis to determine the readiness of online business and Ecommerce in the post COVID-19 period. The result highlights the specific issues of this sector such as the shortage of resources and disruptions in the supply chain & logistical issues during the COVID-19 pandemic. Qualitative analysis discloses that almost half of the respondents adopt online platforms along with additional challenges to sustain their business during the pandemic. This study utilizes annual time series data for the period from 1973-74 to 2017-18 to understand the long-run relationship between India's GDP and MSMEs units. By utilizing the co-integration technique, this study reveals that there is a long-run relationship between MSME units and the economic growth of this country.
