  • Traditional Asian medicine has an extensive evidence base built upon thousands of years of experience within Asia, of curing various diseases. Only recently, within the past two centuries, have modern medical scientists developed interest in traditional Asian medicine. Asian Medicine seems to be regarded only as an adjunctive medicine and viewed as alargely un-proven alternative medicine to complement western medicine, used in some cases to establish a new paradigm of "integrative medicine". This article reviews how Korean herbal cosmetics emerged by applying traditional Asian medicine to the science of cosmetics. The characteristics of Korean herbal cosmetics are examined through examples of history, concepts and traditions. With the advancements in biotechnology, studies are now being conducted on the dermatological effects and processing methods of herbal ingredients, including ginseng. The authors explain the current research on the identification on the active ingredients of herbs, extraction methods, and bio-processing of ingredients to improve the biological efficacies of herbs on the skin. A summary of studies focused on modern reinterpretations of ageing theories, such as 'Seven year aging cycle', are provided. In conclusion, the development of Korean cosmetics products are based on the accumulated knowledge of thousands of years of experience including; 1) practical heritage of traditional Asian medicines such as Donguibogam; 2) excellent medicinal plants, such as ginseng, which are native to Korea; and 3) innovative attempts to modernize materials, processes, and principles.

  • Through big data analysis of the 'Joseonwangjosilok', this study examines the perception of ginseng among the ruling class and its utilization during the Joseon era. It aims to provide foundational data for the development of ginseng into a high-value cultural commodity. The focus of this research, the Joseonwangjosilok, comprises 1,968 volumes in 948 books, spanning a record of 518 years. Data was collected through web crawling on the website of the National Institute of Korean History, followed by frequency analysis of significant words. To assess the interest in ginseng across the reigns of 27 kings during the Joseon era, ginseng frequency records were adjusted based on years in power and the number of articles, creating an interest index for comparative rankings across reigns. Analysis revealed higher interest in ginseng during the reigns of King Jeongjo and King Yeongjo in the 18th century, King Sunjo in the 19th century, King Sejong in the 15th century, King Sukjong in the 17th century, and King Gojong in the 19th century. Examining the temporal emergence and changes in ginseng during the Joseon era, general ginseng types like insam and sansam had the highest frequency in the 15th century. It appears that Korea adeptly utilized ceremonial goods in diplomatic relations with China and Japan, meeting the demand for ginseng from their royal and aristocratic societies. Processed ginseng varieties such as hongsam and posam, along with traded and taxed ginseng, showed peak frequency in the 18th century. This coincided with increased cultivation, allowing a higher supply and fostering the development of ginseng processing technologies like hongsam.

  • 한국 디자인사의 일반적 접근 경향은 한국의 정치, 경제, 사회적 측면에서 근대화 문제와 관련된 거대 담론에 주로 연구 초점을 맞추어 왔다. 근대화 논의에는, 그러나, 자본주의적 생산양식의 자장 안에서 전개되는 공적, 제도적, 권력적 근대화 외에 일상적인 삶의 양식으로 발현되는 사적, 개인적, 문화적 근대화라는 두 측면이 내재되어 있다. 특히, 현실사회주의의 실패 이후 후자의 관점이 역사학계를 비롯한 제 분야에서 새로운 대안으로 부각되고 있음에도 불구하고, 한국 디자인 역사 연구가들의 근대적 디자인 현상에 대한 역사 인식은 일상적 현실 안에 존재하는 ‘아래로부터의 역사’이기보다는 현실 밖에 담론의 차원으로 존재하는 ‘위로부터의 역사’인 경우가 많았다. 이와 같은 엘리트 중심의 역사인식 틀에 균형감을 부여하기 위해서는 보통 사람들의 자발적인 디자인 행위로 구현된 일상적 삶의 표상들을 연구대상으로 삼음으로써 한국 디자인의 역사를 일상 문화적인 시각을 통해 아래로부터 재구성하는 작업이 요구된다. 이 물음에 대한 한 가지 접근방법은 지순한 한국 어머니 상의 전형인 올해 87세의 양갑조 할머니가 일생동안 제작해 온 규방 공예품을 문화사적 시각으로 읽어내는 일이다. 한국 디자인사의 거시적 담론 속에 묻혀버린 민초들의 일사적인 삶의 구적들에 대한 역사적 반추 작업을 통해 작지만 다층적인 한국 디자인의 의미소들을 발굴해 냄으로써 문화사로서의 한국 디자인의 역사적 전망을 가늠해 보는 전기를 마련하고자 한다.

  • This article aims at rethinking on people of Modern styles in early modern period with reference to A Large River[Dae-Ha] written by Kim Nam-cheon at 1939. Park Sung-guoen could be called to Homo Economicus, first, have maximized of self-interest in rapid changes of Korea society with loan sharking, rising to upper class in new early modern era instead of traditional nobleman. Park Hyung-geol could be said romantic guy, second, have chased romatic love consist of three elements(love-sex-marriage). But he troubled his love affairs to his family members frustrated his will because of a bastard son. It is the model of situations, Kim Nan-cheon intended to describe, that Homo Economicus became an object of envy among people in early modern society as well as the choice has been hard in conflicting between family and lover, concretizing anachronism through history of family.

  • Examining how the CCP operated social services in Shanghai neighborhood[linong] in early 1950s, this article reveals the hidden relation between social service and rectification of neighborhood organizations in 1954. One of the main purpose of 1954 rectification was to guarantee provision of grassroots level of the city by recruiting local cadres, the implementers of social services. Though series of social service, such as night patrol, cleaning and public charity were indispensable for residents' life and welfare(fuli)[福利] of neighborhood, the social services was the something most of the Shanghai residents were reluctant to do. The result was the shortage of human resource for social service, triggering the "nominal position(gua ming)[掛名] " phenomenon. During political rectification of neighborhood organizations in 1954 Shanghai Municipal government tried to solve this 'decline of human resource in social services' problem by attracting the unemployed to the position of basic level cadre. To be specific, it demanded jobless person in neighborhood to be registered in time if they want a job placement. And it used that registration as the nominee of cadre in re-election process of the rectification campaign. The government measures were closely related to Shanghai people's inclination to rely on party-state when they try to get a job. Hence political rectification in neighborhood organizations become the strategic tool of city governance to mobilize residents in operating social services. So this article suggests that the CCP's urban governance was a complex and nuanced process to induce urban residents' interest and voluntarism beyond the suppression-oriented totalitarian perspective.

  • Confucian doctors (儒醫) emerged who either voluntarily or involuntarily studied medical science and participated in clinical practices. This was made possible by a newly established position known as Euiseoseupdokgwan (醫書習讀官), made up of officials who had knowledgeable about medical books, during the reign of King Sejong. By the 16th century, Confucian doctors who acquired knowledge from medical books began to practice more broadly. Most of the Confucian doctors had either direct or indirect connections with the Sarim faction 士林派, and had interest in practicing medicine in provincial regions. In 1610, Donguibogam (東醫寶鑑) was published, providing the Confucian doctors with solid academic and clinical foundations. From the late 17th century onwards, the medical environment quickly became commercialized and the status of Confucian doctors gradually weakened.

  • The pressing need to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions has stimulated a renewed interest in nuclear energy worldwide. However, while numerous countries have shown interest in nuclear power over the course of history, many of them have not continued their pursuit and chosen to defer or abandon their peaceful nuclear power projects. Scrapping a national nuclear power program after making initial efforts implies significant challenges in such a course or a waste of national resources. Therefore, this study aims to identify the crucial factors that influence a country's decision to terminate or hold off its peaceful nuclear power programs. Our empirical analyses demonstrate that major nuclear accidents and leadership changes are significant factors that lead countries to terminate or defer their nuclear power programs. Additionally, we highlight that domestic politics (democracy), lack of military alliance with major nuclear suppliers, low electricity demand, and national energy security environments (energy import, crude oil price) can hamper a country's possibility of regaining interest in a nuclear power program after it has been scrapped, suspended, or deferred. The findings of this study have significant implications for policymakers and stakeholders in the energy sector as they strive to balance the competing demands of energy security, and environmental sustainability.

  • 최근 역사를 소재로 한 영상매체가 사람들의 관심을 많이 끌고 있다. 특히 역사드라마와 영화를 통해서 사람들은 역사에 친숙함을 느끼고 있다. 본고에서는 역사드라마와 영화의 특징을 간단히 보고, 그 한계와 비판점을 생각해보고자 한다. 또한 최근 소수의 사람들이지만 인기를 얻고 있는 리인액트먼트에 대해 간단히 알아보고 그 특징과 한계 및 비판점을 살펴보고 양 측의 관계에 대해 알아보고자 한다. 리인액트먼트를 우리말로 옮기면 '역사재현'이다. 역사재현이란 당대의 사건이나 생활상, 전투 등을 그대로 재현하는 것으로, 기본적으로 참여자는 여기에 관심이 있는 일반인들이 주를 이룬다. 역사교육에서 이러한 영상매체와 리인액트먼트 활동은 현대 대중의 관심 속에서 역사를 대중화하고 친근하게 만드는 역할을 하고 있다. 리인액트먼트는 역사드라마나 영화에 있어서 발생하는 몇 가지 제약을 해결하는데 우선적으로 비용적인 문제에서 큰 절감 효과를 노릴 수 있을 것이다.
