The purpose of this study is to develop BSC model of social enterprise. Performance analysis tool of BSC have been brought over from the business world, designed and created from the perspectives of profit-based businesses. The BSC is a strategic performance measurement and management tool designed for the private sector acting as a communication/information and learning system, to measure 'where we are now' and 'where to aim for next'. It prescribes a plan for translating 'vision' and 'strategy' into concrete action across four perspectives at different stages, depending on the business. These perspectives are 'financial', 'customer', 'internal processes' and 'learning and growth', each of which is connected by cause-and-effect relationships that reflect the firm's strategy. Social aims of social enterprise are to accomplish desired outcomes which are to employ vulnerable people and to provide social services. The measurement factors of financial perspective are stable funding, efficiency of budgeting, stakeholders' financial supports, and trade profit. The measurement factors of customer perspective are government, social service users, employees, local communities, sup plier, social activity company, and partnership with external organizations. The measurement factors of internal process perspective are organizational culture, organizational structure/management, internal/external communication, quality of products and services, information sharing. The measurement factors of learning and growth perspective are training and development, management participation, knowledge sharing, leadership of CEO and manager, and learning culture.

This study examined the Family and Consumer Sciences (FCS) National Standards with some examples at the state level, analyzed the previous studies relevant to curriculum implementation in the USA, and explored critical success factors in moving toward the new perspective curriculum in exemplary states. The process, in which the FCS discipline struggled to clarify the identity and image as well as to find the mission and vision, produced the FCS National Standards in 1998 and 2008 in the USA. The FCS National Standards were established to fulfill the mission of the FCS based on a critical science perspective. The previous research on a state level implementation indicated that the majority of FCS state administrators agreed that the National Standards positively influenced curriculum development. The critical success factors in integrating National Standards into local programs included the dissemination of thephilosophical works of Marjorie Brown, the foundation of the FCS curriculum with a critical science perspective, the establishment of National Standards corresponding to the philosophical works and a critical science perspective, the openness of state FCS administrators to educational reform, the construction of an infrastructure to support reform, and the commitment by university professors to develop a teacher training program. The critical success factors identified can be employed as an informative guide for the future development and implementation of the Family and Consumer Sciences curriculum in Korea.

There is increasing awareness in the international alliance literature that the firm performance effects of the alliance portfolio go beyond the effects of the individual alliances. I enrich this nascent perspective by developing a alliance portfolio composition framework based on the alliance portfolio dimensions - underpinned by the simultaneity of quantitative and qualitative factors in international portfolio - that enhances firms' financial performance. This paper assesses the impact on firm performance of composing the alliance dimension within a firm's international alliance portfolio. In an unbalanced panel data analysis with fixed effects of the performance of 502 firms operating in the Korean manufacturing industry during 2011-2017, I test whether firm's three dimension of international alliance portfolio affect on firm financial performance. I find that the intensity of international alliance have significantly positive effect on the firm performance. And following the moderating analysis of three portfolio dimension-functional, relational, and attribute, all of each three international alliance portfolio has positive moderating effects on the relationship between the alliance intensity and firm performance. These results indicate that firms should consider and form simultaneous approaches to exploit the international alliance based on the alliance portfolio dimensions with intensity of alliance portfolio.

글로벌 경쟁에서 화주기업은 자사의 물류 관련 투자를 줄이고, 핵심역량 집중을 통하여 고객 서비스 향상은 물론 자사 경쟁력을 높이기 수 있는 기대를 하게 되고, 물류기업은 화주기업의 만족과 성과 향상을 위하여 차별화된 물류 서비스 제공을 하기 위해 물류아웃소싱을 하여 물류서비스를 개선하려는 기업들이 점점 증가하고 있다. 하지만 거래의 불확실과 변화를 대비하기 위한 물류계약에 대한 불공평한 인식이 존재하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 연구자의 선행연구에서 도출된 물류성과에 영향을 미치는 물류계약 조항에 대해 물류기업과 화주기업을 대상으로 동일한 설문을 구성하여 현재 물류계약서에 반영되고 있는 수준과 향후 반영되어지길 원하는 수준을 조사하였다. 두 개의 집단의 차이를 확인하기 위해 가설을 세우고, t-test와 IPA (Importance-Performance Analysis)를 실시하였으며, 연구결과 첫째, 현재수준의 물류계약서에 대하여 물류기업과 화주기업 간에는 인식의 차이가 확연하게 나타났으며, 둘째, 향후 물류계약서 요구수준 역시 물류 기업과 화주기업 간의 인식차이가 있음이 밝혀졌다. 그리고 물류기업의 현재수준과 요구수준 및 화주기업의 현재수준과 요구수준에 있어서도 차이를 보였으며, 본 연구의 결과는 물류기업과 화주기업의 물류계약서 조항의 인식에 대한 차이를 명확하게 제시하고 당사자 간 물류성과 향상을 위한 유용한 정보가 될 것이라고 사료된다.

Research addressing international new ventures' social responsibility activities is scarce. Specifically, researchers have little account for the effects of an international new venture's social responsibility efforts on the outcomes of relationships with local customers in emerging economies. Against this background, we attempt to extend the boundaries of an understanding of the effects of international new ventures' social responsibility engagement on local customers' loyalty through customer trust and customer identification in emerging economies. Based mainly on the stakeholder theory and the relationship marketing theory, our study conceptualize two facets of international new ventures' social responsibility efforts: ethical and philanthropic corporate social responsibility engagement. In addition, we identify positive customer relationship-building mechanisms for each facet. Furthermore, our study presents an empirically testable propositions that would explain how international new ventures' social responsibility efforts influence the outcomes of relationships with local customers in emerging economies. Finally, this manuscript provides a discussion of the present study' implications for theory and practice and limitations that naturally lead to future research on international new ventures' social responsibility activities in developing economies.

The United Nations Convention on International Settlement Agreements Resulting from Mediation (Singapore Mediation Convention) results in new challenges to the area of international dispute resolution by providing the enforcement regime for mediated settlement agreements, which have not been admitted as enforceable in some civil law countries, including Korea and Japan. Japan has struggled to promote international arbitration and international mediation, and such efforts were accelerated by the adoption of the Singapore Mediation Convention in 2018. In order to standardize arbitration proceedings and promote the practice of international arbitration, Japan produced two noticeable results: the new JCAA Arbitration Rules and the amendment to the Arbitration Act of Japan. In addition to that Expedited arbitration procedure and Interactive Arbitration Rules of JCAA present the new possibility of international arbitration procedure for civil law practitioners, the amendment to the Arbitration Act of Japan suggests significant implications to Korea for its manifest provisions regarding enforcement requirements and proceedings and its protection of Access to Justice for foreign law practitioners.

Purpose - In the international shipping industry, arbitration is mainly chosen for resolving maritime disputes. This study investigates the "acceptability" of an international maritime arbitrator based on an existing theoretical model of arbitrator acceptability. Design/methodology - Using structural equation modeling techniques, this study examines a sample of senior managers who engage in the judicial affairs of their international shipping companies to verify a hypothesized model of arbitrator acceptability that covers cultural intelligence, arbitral experience, reputation, practical/legal expertise, and procedural justice as independent variables. Furthermore, the relative "perceived required time" of arbitration is tested as a moderator. Findings - Arbitrator acceptability is significantly influenced by six constructs of arbitrator characteristics: cultural intelligence, arbitral experience, reputation, practical and legal expertise, and procedural justice. Furthermore, the moderating effect of the perceived required time of arbitration is demonstrated in the relationship between arbitrator acceptability and arbitrator characteristics even though these relationships are not equally influenced. Originality/value - The originality of this study can be found in its context, that is, international maritime arbitration. Despite the potential growth of international maritime arbitration, existing studies have mainly focused on domestic arbitration. The findings of this study are expected to provide useful guidelines for nurturing international maritime arbitration in Korea.

21세기에 들어서면서 국제사회에서 노인에 대한 사회적 처우를 인권적 시각에서 접근해야 한다는 주장이 대두되었지만 국제사회의 노인 인권 보호와 증진을 위한 정책적 노력은 느리게 진행되어 왔다. 이러한 상황에서 국제적 노인 인권 정책의 변화 노력을 전반적으로 바라볼 수 있는 체계적 연구는 결여된 가운데 단편적 주제의 연구들만 이루어져 왔을 뿐이다. 본 연구는 기존 문헌자료 분석과 연구자의 국제 활동 경험을 통해 국제사회의 노인 인권 보장을 위한 전반적인 정책적 논의를 조망할 수 있는 체계적 기초자료를 제공하려는 목적으로 국제사회에서의 노인 인권 문제 제기 배경, 기존 국제사회의 노인 인권 관련 규정의 문제점 검토, 노인 인권 증진을 위한 개선방향과 쟁점을 정리하였다. 국제사회의 기존 인권 규정 가운데 노인에게 적용할 수 있는 것으로 세계인권선언, 권리 분야별 및 대상 인구별 국제협약과 정책권고가 있으나 노인에게 적용하기에 권리의 범위가 좁을 뿐 아니라 법률적 강제성이 부족한 점이 많은 것이 문제이다. 국제사회는 노인 인권을 강화해야 한다는 데는 합의하고 있으나 그 방법론에서는 기존 국제 규정 이행을 강화하자는 것과 새로운 노인 인권 협약을 제정하자는 입장이 대립하고 있으며 두 가지 방법에도 많은 쟁점이 나타나고 있다. 본 연구는 결론적으로 새로운 노인 인권 협약 제정에 찬성하는 입장에서 한국사회에 대한 함의와 연구에 대한 함의를 제시하고 있다.

This study was carried out in Gana Resettlement and Integrated Development (GRID) Project as a pioneer model for Community-Based Forest Management (CBFM) in Sabah, Malaysia. The GRID project is developed to improve community livelihood as well as to promote community involvement in CBFM and at the same time to lessen community encroachment and traditional farming practices inside the forest conservation area. The objectives of this study are: (i) to identify the dependency of local community on forest resources; (ii) to examine local community's roles in conserving forest resources and, (iii) to analyze their views on GRID project in conserving forest. Interviews were conducted with randomly selected 130 households at the GRID project using semi structured questionnaires comprising closed and open-ended questions. The study reveals that community dependency on forest resources have lessened after the resettlement of the GRID project. The community shows positive perspective on their contribution for conserving the forest resources. However, the community's willingness to contribute as well as their real contribution can be further improved. The study recommends the government to create more effective training and relevant activities to improve the livelihood of community as well as to increase their positive perception on forest conservation efforts. Further research to strengthen the relationship between local community and forest governance through forest conservation is also recommended.
