The purpose of this study is to analyze the architectural publicness of Hague city hall by Richard Meier. The Hague city hall shows the systematic and comprehensive configuration of architectural publicness. Meier applied publicness to the city hall from concept and the configuration of space to object design. Architectural publicness of Hague city hall can be realized by providing large public space including atrium, programs about public events, linear space for street activities and the lower location of public facilities in the city hall without the limitation of weather, lime and size of space. Architectural publicness can obtain its real meaning when physical conditions meet the standard of public activities. Besides this, the Hague city hall case shows the desirable role model of city administrator and NGOs in that public events are organized by the independent body. The publicness of architecture is influenced by various factors including physical and political systems. The case study of the architectural publicness is very important in that it is very hard to generalize. In these basis, the study for architectural publicness can be complemented by concrete and positive case studies as well as existing humane and general studies.

이 연구는 우리 사회에서 지적 자유(intellectual freedom)의 이념을 부정하고 정치·사상적 측면에서 '정보의 자유로운 유통'을 저해하는 근거가 되고있는 법규들이 무엇인지 살펴보고, 이 법규들 혹은 법규의 조항들이 그 내용과 적용과정에 있어 어떠한 문제점을 가지고 있는지 구체적인 사례를 통해 분석하고 있다. 나아가, 정보의 자유로운 유통이 저해당하는 사례가 빈번한 우리의 상황에서, 이 문제에 대해 그 동안 각계가 어떻게 대응해 왔는지 소개하고, 그 대응전략과 방법이 갖는 한게와 문제점에 대해 논으하고 있다. 마지막으로 정보유통의 정치·사상적 규제의 근원이 되고 있는 현행 법규의 개정을 위해 우리가 취해야 할 전략과 방법을 제시하면서, 특히, 지식과 정보의 중개자요 관리자임을 자처해 온 도서관인들이 이러한 사회적 이슈에 대해 적극적인 관심을 갖고 능동적으로 참여할 것을 제안하고 있다.

The article compares economic and environmental performance of Taipei and Almaty from the point of view of "green" economy, which is able to act as a key tool to ensure sustainable development of the region. As the comparison of the parameters of ecological and economic development of the Taipei and Almaty cities shows, they are similar in population size, but demonstrate completely different trends of sustainable development. Economic performance of the Taipei city is achieved with a decrease in the consumption of natural resources and the production of pollution, while the situation in Almaty is the opposite. Almaty maintains a high level of air pollution due to the use of coal in electricity production, as well as increased traffic and density of construction, including the southern part of the city, which is a zone for the transit of mountain air flows. The article discusses the activities jointly conducted by the Government of Taiwan and non-governmental organizations on environmental issues, as well as environmental NGOs, which resulted in significant improvements in the environmental field. Measures to stimulate the development and implementation of environmental innovations applied in the field of sustainable development in the city of Taipei can be adapted for the city of Almaty, where the environmental situation deteriorates year by year.

The exchange rate is a very important macro variable that has influence on the whole economy and has, therefore, been the topic of many discussions amongst policymakers, academics and other economic agents. The issue of whether to have a fixed, pegged or floating exchange rate regime was highly debated during the 1970s. The purpose of this paper is to investigate what factors determine the exchange rate in Somalia. Quantitative research methodology has been employed to develop regression model using time series data for the period of 12 years. The regression model has been developed based on Quantity theory of money, purchasing power parity and uncovered interest rate parity theory. Somalia is on the countries where the highest exchange rate volatility exists; for example in 2012, the rate jumped 29% percent and two weak later dropped 21%, when Turkish humanitarian aid agencies injected the market a lot of U.S dollar. Based on my study using regression model for time series data of 12 years, the four factors are mainly attributable for the exchange rate volatility of Somalia; these factors include the balance of payment, inflation rate, money supply (mostly come from remittance and NGOs) and Bank profits.

This study has analyzed the interrelation between transformational leadership (TL) and organizational commitment (OC) so as to verify the mediating effect of their trust on OC, finding that charisma and intellectual stimulus have a significant effect on affective and continuous commitment. This finding is different from any existing arguments where the charisma of TL and the individual consideration are said to have a significant and positive effect on affective and continuous commitment. Furthermore, the mediating effect, which was expected to be highly relevant on the grounds of the findings of previous researches that any high trust of a leader would lead to a high level of OC of members, has been revealed as a complete mediation in the relationship of emotional trust between individual consideration and OC, which shows that the correlation between TL and OC may vary depending on the characteristics of an organization and its members both of which are sample objects. This study, unlike most previous researches with their research samples in industrial fields, has estimated the growing interrelation of NGOs. Therefore, while this study itself may have its research-limit of specificity, it is expected to make a useful contribution to any future researches of the same category.

지금까지 우리나라의 재난관리서비스에 대해서는 주로 공공부분에서 담당 해 오고 있으나 공공부분(정부)의 힘만으로는 재난관리를 효과적으로 수행하는 데는 그 한계가 있을 수밖에 없다. 그러므로 유관기관, 시민, NGO, 기업 등 다양한 기관 및 단체가 다조직의 협력체계, 즉 재난관리의 효율적인 거버넌스체계가 이루어져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 재난관리, 거버넌스 등의 개념을 탐색적으로 살펴보았다. 재난관리의 효과성 영향요인을 실증적으로 분석한 결과 모든 종속변수가 재난관리 효과성에 중요한 영향을 준 것으로 나타났으며, 의용소방대, 유관기관 협력, 자원봉사, 시민의지지, NGO 네트워크 순으로 영향력이 있는 것으로 나타남.

This paper assessed environmental sanitation behaviour of market operators in selected markets in Ibadan, Nigeria. The two largest markets in the study area (Aleshinloye and Bodija markets) were selected for sampling. The selected markets represented the two types of markets; modern and traditional markets. The modern market comprises 3803 shops while the traditional market comprises 5943 shops. Multistage sampling technique was adopted in questionnaire administration. The selected markets were stratified into zones based on the goods sold. Systematic sampling was used in the selection of traders across the markets. 2% of traders were selected for sampling in each category of goods sold making a total of 189 respondents. This comprises 77 of traders from modern market and 112 traders from traditional markets. Descriptive and Inferential statistics were used in analysing the data. Findings revealed poor access to environmental sanitation facilities especially at the traditional market. The study also established poor environmental sanitation behaviour in terms of utilisation of available amenities across both markets. It recommended a synergy of efforts by all environmentally concerned institutions in managing the market environment. It also advocated for the provision of environmental sanitation facilities in markets by, government, market management authorities, traders, Community Based Organizations (CBOs) and Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs). In addition environmental education is imperative while enforcement of environmental regulations in the market and others with similar setting is strongly encouraged.
