The objectives of the study mainly concentrated on identifying the political implication on genetically modified crops considering production potentials and problems. It is found that the comprehensive evaluation of the genetically modified crops could not be concluded and compromised in a word on account of the polarization and parallelism of the positive and negative benefits of genetically modified crops just like as the rail way. The genetically modified crops will be contributed to solving the food shortage problems in the world, when the issues such as food safety, ecological disturbance and loss and degradation of biodiversity can be guaranteed in transparency. And when the trade morality of the multi-national enterprises be accepted by the genetically modified crops consumers, the potentiality of genetically modified crops will be realized greatly. By the way, the first problems will be expected to be solved by scientific development. If the food safety of the genetically modified technology be verified in transparency, it will be greatly contributed to solve food problems of human beings in the world. But the second problem could not be expected to be easily solved from the view point of capital property. In conclusion, the genetically modified technology will be made a severe sense of incongruity and a seed of fire on it will be remained persistently. According to the results based on the analysing the genetically modified crops potentiality and problems, it was identified that the ex-ante preparation of counter-measures and actions on it should be necessary. Accordingly this study has recommended that how and what the R&D policy on genetically modified crops be established and suggested how to carried out the industrial and economic policy together with international negotiation, and organizational and institutional rearrangement and etc.

Background: Dentist's income is quite variable. We investigate the factors underlying the distribution of dental revenue and dentist income. Methods: Financial and structural variables of private dental practices(N=13,967) were examined with 2010 Economic Census microdata which include non-insurance revenue. We conducted quantile regression method(QRM) and ordinary least square(OLS) in treating skewness and heteroskedasticity of distributions. The effective estimation for the upper and lower range of distribution becomes possible by QRM. Results: Mid-career dentists are shown to have higher revenue and income. Male dentists achieve the higher revenue and income than female dentists in all quantiles. Group practices show lower income per owner than solo practices significantly. The revenue and income are increased with increasing size of clinics. The high cost in renting the clinic office is found to have a big positive effect on the revenue but a little positive effect on the income. Interestingly the density of dentists shows negative effect on the lowest quantile of the revenue but positive effect on the highest quantile. The lowest quantile of the revenue in the capital areas have the relatively high revenue. The lowest quantile of the income in metropolitan city show higher income than those in other areas significantly. Conclusion: The suggested QRM is shown to have more effective and efficient tool in finding out determinants of dentists' revenue and income of our concern. The results of this study are expected to be employed for dentists preparing for the opening practices in their organizational settings and locational selections. The distributional efficiency of dental human resources could be accomplished if policy makers guide dentists with this knowledge.

Sejong City, which has been chosen as a new administrative capital of South Korea, has completed the first phase of its development plan with the construction of the facilities needed to accommodate central administrative organizations and the required accompanying population. Now, it is undergoing the second phase of development with a focus on strengthening the region's innovation capacity to catalyze endogenous development. The strategy for phase II is to establish a regional innovation system including building necessary infrastructure and attracting innovation agents such as universities, businesses, and research institutes. The first step for this is developing a research complex, tentatively named Tech Valley, that includes universities, research institutes, and businesses, and building infrastructure comprising a science complex, a knowledge industry center, and support facilities. Phase II of the city's development initiative includes the establishment of a joint university campus, which is to serve as a center to promote cooperation among industry actors, universities, and research institutes. The concept of a joint campus has been drawn from a need to enhance capacity for innovation and specialization in the region's industries and to maximize synergy among participating universities through the sharing of research equipment, facilities, and programs. The joint campus is expected to play a key role in creating an innovation system in the region by enhancing research capacity for strategic industries, cultivating highly skilled human resources, and leading industry-academia-research cooperation. In order to ensure the sustainable development of the new city, there is a growing need to have a main player in place that could lead the region's economic development. The joint campus will propel industrial specialization and serve as a catalyst to attract competent universities to the region. This paper will examine the concept, major functions, and the establishment and operation of the joint campus.

인적자원이 가장 중요한 경쟁력이 되는 지식정보화 산회에서 숙련의 주기는 짧으며, 노동력의 유동화는 심화되고 있어 자격의 신호기제로서의 역할이 크게 부각되고 있다. 이에 우리나라 자격의 기능을 취득요인, 취업 및 임금효과 측면에서 검토하기 위해 한국노동패널 1~4차년도(1998~2001) 자료를 개인별로 묶어 고정효과 로짓모형, 임의효과모형으로 회귀분석하였다. 추정의 결과 고졸 미만 저학력층의 자격취득 확률이 높게 나타났다. 남자는 실업상태에 있는 경우에 자격취득이 많았고, 여성은 비경제활동의 기타 상태(잠재적 구직상태)에 있는 경우 자격취득이 많았다. 자격의 취업효과는 여성의 경우 1년차, 2년차에 유의하게 나타나나, 남자의 경우는 유의하지 않았다. 취득한 자격의 임금효과는 남녀 공히 유의하지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 현재 우리나라에서 자격취득으로 얻어지는 직업능력이 시장에서 제대로 인정받고 있지 못하는 현실을 반영한다.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which causes serious respiratory illness such as pneumonia and lung failure, was first reported in Wuhan, the capital of Hubei, China. The etiological agent of COVID-19 has been confirmed as a novel coronavirus, now known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which is most likely originated from zoonotic coronaviruses, like SARS-CoV, which emerged in 2002. Within a few months of the first report, SARS-CoV-2 had spread across China and worldwide, reaching a pandemic level. As COVID-19 has triggered enormous human casualties and serious economic loss posing global threat, an understanding of the ongoing situation and the development of strategies to contain the virus's spread are urgently needed. Currently, various diagnostic kits to test for COVID-19 are available and several repurposing therapeutics for COVID-19 have shown to be clinically effective. In addition, global institutions and companies have begun to develop vaccines for the prevention of COVID-19. Here, we review the current status of epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, and vaccine development for COVID-19.

본 논문은 다양한 비정형 근로계약 선택의 결정요인이 무엇인가를 거래비용 이론에 의거하여 제시하고 있다. 풀타임 상용고의 정형근로를 조직내거래, 비정형근로를 시장거래 내지 시장거래와 조직내거래 중간의 다양한 영역이라고 볼 때, 시장거래비용의 크기와 종류에 따라 정형큰로 및 비정형근로의 유형이 선택될 것이다. 스킬의 기업특수성, 스킬의 수준, 직무수행의 범위 및 불확실성, 근로계약 기간 등 4가지 조건에 따라 해당 근로계약의 거래비용이 결정되며, 이에 따라 적합한 근로계약이 선택되는 과정으로 모형을 제시하고 있다. 결국 직종의 성격에 따라 정규직과 비정규직의 유형이 결정되는 현상, 즉 직종간 분리된 근로계약의 선택으로 귀결되며, 이는 비정규고용의 업종 및 기간 제한, 임금차별 규제 등의 법적 보호장치가 실제적으로는 큰 효과가 없을 수 있다는 사실을 시사하고 있다.

신자유주의는 국가 개입을 통해 작동하는 경로의존적, 혼종적, 모순적 프로젝트로 이해된다. 신자유주의 하에서 실제 국가의 개입은 그 힘이 약화되었다기보다는 전략이 변화했다고 할 수 있으며, 이는 특히 도시공간의 재구성을 위한 신자유주의적 정책들에서 잘 나타난다. 이러한 점에서 이 논문은 발전국가로 특징지워지는 한국에서 신자유주의의 도입과정과 이에 따른 도시정책의 특성 변화를 고찰하고자 한다. 이를 위해 이 논문은 우선 1960년대 이후 국가주도적, 수출지향적 경제개발을 주도한 발전국가 및 그 공간정책의 특성을 살펴보고, 1980년대 후반 이후 신자유주의의 전개과정을 두 단계, 즉 1980년대 후반에서 1997년 경제위기 이전(1단계)과 그 이후 현재까지(2단계)로 구분하여 고찰하고자 한다. 특히 이러한 신자유주의화 과정은 기존 발전주의와 상호 중첩적, 혼종적으로 결합되어 있으며, 이러한 성향은 공간정책의 변화과정에 반영되고 있다고 주장한다. 끝으로 국가와 시장 간 결합(즉 발전주의적 신자유주의)은 다양한 유형으로 전개될 수 있지만, 국가의 발전 전망과 공간정책은 산업(자본)중심이 아니라 복지(인간)중심이어야 한다는 점이 강조된다.

This study has as a object to investigate some various meanings of the discourses of postdevelopment of Arturo Escobar with the respect of the social movements of the indigenous and the afro-colombians in the area of the Pacific Coast of Colombia. The ideological lines of Escobar go around the group of critical discourse Modernity/(De)coloniality whose thesis lies on revealing the coloniality as principal elements of the modernity from the XVI century until now culminating in the neoliberal globalization. In another words, they try to seek for the alternative globalization based on the autonomy of the people who has been alienated for long time as 'others' by the eurocentrism of the power and the knowledge and on the equality of the cultural differences o the cosmovisions in Latin America. Escobar concentrates on the fact that the neoliberal regime would turn the nature into the environment considered as the resources for example the traditional knowledges of biodiversity of the indigenous as the capital of the pharmaceutical companies through the patents. However, the indigenous and the afro-colombians have fought fiercely to have them be maintained as a colective right of the possession not only to guard the economic interests but also their proper cultural traditions and the way of life based on the social solidarity of reciprocal care instead of the occidental individualism. This corresponds not only to the social relations but between the nature and the human society. And so, Arturo Escobar interprets these movements not only to defend the places but to express the cosmovisions of Postdevelopment further more the modern paradigm of nation-state.

우리나라의 청년실업률은 일반 실업률에 비해 매우 높은 수준이다. 청년실업의 경우, 경제성장의 동력이 되는 인적자본 축적을 저해한다는 점, 빠르게 비경제활동 인구화로 전환된다는 점 등 때문에 매우 심각한 문제이다. 정부는 청년실업해소를 위하여 다양한 정책을 추진하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 청년실업 대책 중에서 기업 맞춤형 직업교육의 유형에 포함되는 직장체험 프로그램, 인력채용패키지 사업, 청년취업인턴제, 그리고 정부지원 사업은 아니지만 대표적인 기업 맞춤형 교육인 계약학과 등에 대해 그 특징과 현황을 살펴보았다. 또한 기존의 기업 맞춤형 직업교육의 문제점들을 분석하고 이를 해결할 수 있는 개선모델(M-to-M)을 제시하였다.
