This study examines the role of dynamic socio-emotional capabilities to increase proactive stakeholder engagement in family businesses. The research sample includes all furniture enterprises scattered in Jepara Regency sub-districts as many as 3,945 companies. The sampling in this research is purposive; as many as 210 respondents, 181 could be used. The sampling unit is the owners and managers, considering that most company owners are also company managers. This study examines how learning and supply chain management in the family business can be integrated to enable a set of resources and capabilities provided by the family to be developed to build closer relationships with stakeholders. The findings showed the importance of a family business's supply chain management perspective in the relationship between dynamic socio-emotional capabilities to mediate organizational learning to proactive stakeholder engagement significantly. Based on this study's results, companies can build dynamic socio-emotional capabilities through organizational learning to increase proactive stakeholder engagement. Dynamic socio-emotional capabilities proved to play a role as a mediator for organizational learning by family companies for proactive stakeholder engagement.

An emphasis on public-private partnership (PPP) in the regulatory policy process can overcome the challenges hindering regulatory effectiveness with the emergence of fast developing technologies and new industries. This study attempts to evaluate quantitatively different aspects of institutional settings of South Korean regulatory policy in terms of stakeholder engagement as PPP, using evidence-based data released by the OECD. From the results of the principal component analysis, South Korea can be evaluated as being at a very good level overall in its institutional establishment. Nevertheless, the fact that the outcome of regulatory reforms in South Korea is still insufficient compared with this well-established system suggests that the country should concentrate on improving system operation. Consequently, this study makes policy suggestions to improve regulatory effectiveness through PPP by supplementing the facets that are well-equipped but not feasible with respect to regulatory policy cycle, regulatory governance, regulatory method, and conflict resolution.

Radioactive waste has been produced in the UK for many decades. Since the 1950' s much of this has been associated with civil nuclear power production and the nuclear weapons programme. There have been a number of unsuccessful attempts in the UK since the 1980s to deal with the waste and find suitable sites for its disposal. However, the UK Government has addressed this and in 2001 introduced the "Managing Radioactive Waste Safely" programme. The aim of this was to make decisions on the long-term radioactive waste management policy through stakeholder engagement. In 2006, it adopted a policy of geological disposal for higher activity wastes and following further consultations, is now at the stage of choosing how that policy should be implemented.

The purpose of this study is twofold. First, this paper argues that a theoretical lens that can connect three crucial concepts is often missing when it comes to assessing the success or failure of corporate reputation in terms of corporate environmental responsibility. These three concepts include the legitimacy of environmental disclosure information, stakeholder interest in corporate environmental responsibility, and the relationship between corporate environmental practices and disclosure. The second purpose is to investigate the roles of transparency and systemic thinking in corporate environmental responsibility and disclosure that could help to connect the information from environmental disclosure to internal information in firms, thereby minimizing conflicting accountabilities and increasing stakeholder engagement in environmental disclosure. Rather than conducting an empirical study, the author has followed a theoretical examination of legitimacy, stakeholder, and stewardship theories. This study, thus, suggests the retention of many theories (e.g. legitimacy, stakeholder, and stewardship) to study and explain the relationship of corporate environmental practices, environmental disclosure, and corporate reputation.

질 관리와 개선이 고등교육기관의 생존과 국가 경쟁력의 중요한 요소로 부각되면서, 질 관리 방안은 국가 차원뿐만 아니라 국경을 넘어선 관심사로 떠오르고 있다. 많은 나라들이 질 관리 체제를 확립하고 적용하기 위한 노력을 경주해 온 가운데, 이것이 실제 고등교육 기관에서 어떻게 적용되고 있는가에 대해서는 충분한 연구가 이루어지지 못하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 영국의 고등교육 질 관리체제를 대학 차원에 초점을 두고 스코틀랜드를 중심으로 살펴보고자 한다. 스코틀랜드의 질 관리와 개선시스템(Quality Assurance and Enhancement)은 학생의 참여와 질 관리 문화를 강조하는 만큼, 본 연구는 이해관계자 이론에 근거하여 에든버러대학 교육학부를 중심으로 내부 이해관계자들의 인식을 분석함으로써 대학에서 이루어지는 질 관리의 실태를 살피고 더 나은 실천을 위한 방안과 시사점을 도출하고자 하였다. 이해관계자 분석 결과 질 관리와 개선 시스템(QAE)은 학교 내부 이해관계자들의 질 관리에 대한 높은 이해와 관심수준을 보이며 비교적 성공적으로 적용되고 있으나, 현재 활용되고 있는 전략은 여전히 학생과 교직원 일부에서 충분히 기능하지 못하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 더 나은 실천을 위해서는 더욱 폭 넓은 정보의 공개와 점진적 평가 과정, 의사소통과 행정적 지원이 요구된다.

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.

Background: From 2018 to 2020, the Expert Study on Public Understanding after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Accident (the Expert Study Group) identified and analyzed activities designed to promote public understanding of science and radiation since the Fukushima accident, and held discussions on how to achieve public understanding in the situation where public confidence has been lost, and how experts should prepare for dealing with the public. This panel session was held at the 53^rd meeting of the Japan Health Physics Society on June 30, 2020. Materials and Methods: First, three subgroup (SG) leaders reported their research methods and results. Then, two designated speakers, who participated as observers of the Expert Study Group, commented on the activities. Next, the five speakers held a panel discussion. Finally, the rapporteur summarized. Results and Discussion: SG leaders presented reports from researchers and practitioners in health physics and environmental risks who provided information after the Fukushima accident. During the discussion, experts in sociology and ethics discussed the issues, focusing on the overall goals of the three groups, local (personal) and mass communication, and ethical values. Many of the activities instituted by the experts after the accident were aimed at public understanding of science (that is, to provide knowledge to residents), but by taking into account interactions with residents and their ethical norms, the experts shifted to supporting the residents' decision-making through public engagement. The need to consider both content and channels is well known in the field of health communication, and overlaps with the above discussion. Conclusion: How to implement and promote the public engagement in society was discussed in both the floor and designated discussions. Cooperation between local communities and organizations that have already gained trust is also necessary in order to develop relationships with local residents in normal times, to establish an information transmission system, and to make it work effectively.

While corporate social responsibility (CSR) has been considered an important philanthropic support for nonprofits worldwide, little is known about how perceptions of CSR are associated with actual CSR practices that may benefit nonprofit organizations in different institutional contexts. This study applies stakeholder theory to examine how South Korean firms perceive CSR outcomes, and how these perceptions lead to different CSR practices. We constructed a panel dataset using two waves of the Giving Korea survey of CSR and two additional sources. The results indicate that perceived CSR outcomes may play a critical role in CSR practices: 1) the more financial performance is perceived as an outcome, the more will be donated; 2) the more organizational culture is perceived as an outcome, the greater the engagement in employee volunteering; and 3) the more reputation is perceived as an outcome, the more nonprofit organizations are supported. From the findings, we discuss theoretical implications and provide suggestions for nonprofit organizations.

캐나다 AECL이 사용후핵연료 관리 방법으로 심지층 처분 방식을 제시하였으나, Seaborn Panel은 이 방안에는 사회적 수용성이 결여되어 있음을 지적하였다. 이에 따라 캐나다는 사용후 핵연료 관리에 위해 보다 폭넓은 사람들의 참여를 유도할 수 있는 공론화 프로그램이 필요하다는 것을 인식하고 먼저 핵연료폐기물법 (Nuclear Fuel Waste Act, NFWA) 을 제정하였다. NFWA에 따라 Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO) 가 설립되었다. 전문가들이 마련한 세 가지 관리 방법 가운데서 사회적으로 수용 가능하고 기술적으로 안전하며, 환경적으로 책임질 수 있고 경제적으로 실행 가능한 사용후핵연료 장기적 관리방안을 마련하는 것을 NWMO의 임무로 지정하였다. 그러나 이 세가지 관리 방안 중 어느 것도 적합하지 않다고 판단할 때는 제 4의 대안을 고려하는 예외 조항을 두었다. 결과적으로 NWMO는 위의 3가지 방안의 장점 및 특징을 바탕으로 하여 제 4의 대안인 Adaptive Phased Management (APM; 융통성 있는 단계적 관리) 방식을 제안하였다. 이 대안은 실행 단계에서라도 어떤 기술적 발전이나 변화가 생겼을 때 이를 받아들이도록 고안되었다. 캐나다의 사용후핵연료 공론화 과정은 연구 개발 프로그램이 사회적 수용성과 얼마나 깊게 연관되어 있는지를 잘 보여준다. 다시 말해, 비록 자세한 기술적인 연구 개발은 전문 과학자에 의해 수행되어야 하지만, 연구 개발의 객관적인 타당성 확보를 위해서는 대중을 의사 결정 과정에 참여시키고 대중의 의견을 수렴하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 또한 공정성, 공공의 건강과 안전, 안보, 적용성 등과 같은 원칙들을 확보하기 위하여 NWMO는 이와 같은 추상적인 개념들을 대중이 이해하도록 노력하였다. 가능한 많은 대중을 프로그램에 참여시키기 위하여 공론화 회의뿐 아니라 e-dialogue 등과 같이 다양한 의사소통 방법을 사용하였다. 현재 사용후핵연료 관리 방안을 둘러싸고 많은 어려움을 겪고 있는 우리나라의 입장에서 생각할 때, 캐나다 공론화 과정은 우리나라가 앞으로 적절한 사용후핵연료 관리 방안을 찾는 데 많은 교훈과 시사점을 제공할 수 있다. 결과적으로, 숙의적 참여방법의 하나인 공론화 방안이 우리나라에서도 사용후핵연료 문제를 해결하는 하나의 대안이 될 수 있을 것이다.
