Korea actively endeavors to improve the national marine environmental laws and regulations. Along with the growing global concern on the importance of marine environment, the concern is also increasing nationwide in Korea. These institutional changes in Korea have implications in that it has started to internalize the Sustainable Development Principle and the Precautionary Principle in the form of 'law' and 'policy.' The enactment efforts for conservation and sustainable use of marine environment will continue as the legal demand of public for coastal erosion prevention and climate change mitigation increases. This calls for robust revision for more logical framework and coherence of marine environment laws and regulations as well as efficient implementation of policies. In addition, it is strongly required that the systematical research and survey as well as the robust reversion of laws and policies should be taken accordingly for the effective conservation of marine environment.

Single window has become a critical point of trade facilitation. While Korea has set up the first web based single window 'uTtradeHub', China has also been working on a seamless single window. As strong governmental support, advanced technology, leading agency and legal framework are success factors for single window, China already has solid foundation for this. For the leading agency, this research suggests the CIECC as a leading agency with linkage to E-Port service for seamless trade service for companies. We expect that Chinese single window will materialize in near future by a leading agency with the help of strong governmental support.

Safety of residents could be considered and then increased when we plan, design, and operate a city. In Korea, CPTED (Crime Prevention through Environmental Design) is currently being applied to new towns. However, it is not systemized and neither efficient, for there are no constraint provisions, and the foreign cases are not specifically customized to the current situation of the country. This means, the introduction of CPTED is an indispensable fact, but there are limits to the budget aids and actual application, for there is no legal base to support it. This study, therefore, aims to find the limits from analyzing related laws and regimes, administrative regulations, and applied cases, and to deduct improvement plans based on examined foreign cases. In this Study, the supporting system of foreign CPTED related laws and regulations was analyzed around the cases of England and U.S.A, and based on that information, the present condition and limits of CPTED related laws and regulations of Korea were deducted. As a result of this study, there were no constraint provisions to apply the design guidelines to actual planning, and there were limits on backup aid and actual application due to the lacking of analyzing the relevant area. Also, an acceptable framework must be arranged by the revision of laws and ordinances to compel the system, and link it with the CPTED certification system which will revitalize the whole system.

In the 4th Industrial Revolution, information is collected and analyzed from people and objects through the rapid development of ICT. It is possible to create value. However, there are many legal and institutional restrictions on the collection of information aimed at people.Therefore, in-depth research on the protection and use of personal information in the rapidly changing cyber security environment is needed. The purpose of this study is to protect and utilize personal information for the operation of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and big data during the 4th Industrial Revolution. It is to seek a paradigm shift. The organization of the research for this is: Chapter 1 examines the meaning of personal information during the 4th Industrial Revolution, Chapter 2 presents the framework for the review and analysis of prior research. In Chapter 3, after analyzing policies for the protection and utilization of personal information in major countries, Chapter 4 looks at the paradigm shift in personal information protection during the 4th Industrial Revolution and how to respond. Chapter 5 made some policy suggestions for the protection and utilization of personal information.

Objectives: Korean medicine hospitals, since they first emerged in the early 1970s, have rapidly become a new member of the hospital population. As it was a new organizational frame for traditional medicine, we tried to analyze the changes of Korean medicine hospitals coping with institutional environment and their relative positioning in the whole health care sector. Methods: On the basis of Scott and his colleagues' identification of the three components of institutional environments, changes in organizational logics, actors, and governance of Korean medicine hospitals during the period from 1971 to 2010 were analyzed. Results: First, Similar to previous literature on institutional eras of Korean health sector, three distinct periods were characterized: the foundation of Korean medicine hospitals to consolidate the legal status(1971~1986), a rapid increase of entrepreneurial hospitals through cultural-cognitive legitimacy(1987~2001), and the reinforcement of specialization and competition(2002~present). Conclusions: Results suggested that: (1) changes in institutional environments hada heavy impact on structural and behavioral changes among Korean medicine hospitals, but the pace was slower than that of western medicine hospitals. (2) In structure, Korean medicine hospitals have positioned themselves as unofficial long-term care hospitals, focusing on chronic diseases(e.g. cerebrovascular disease). Our study demonstrated that organizational theories can provide useful framework for the analysis of Korean medicine and related policies. Indeed, one of the most important implications of this study is that understanding changes in institutional environments is important to understand the process of how members of the health care sector live, grow, change, decline and survive.

According to the dispostions of 1967 Space Treaty, the contracting states should assume legal obligation to assure an authorization and continuing supervision with regard to the national space activities. Any space activities have to abide by the rules of international law as well as specified obligations set by the Treaty. Among several treaty obligations, International responsibility to be bome by the state, and the liability principles are deemed as major outstanding obligations which the state should takeinto account. While nation's first launch site is to be operational in a few years, korean government should assure that its national space activities, such as launching of space object, operation of satellites, etc. should be under governmental authorization and supervision. A legislative effort would be most desirable undertaking for this regard. Especially a specific legislation needs tobe studied forwith such authorization regime so that international responsibilty and the liability as to thelaunching of space object should be under the regulatory scheme. This study focuses upon the necessity of such legislation and proposes some major items and framework for the legislation

Purpose: Health professionals and policy makers confront the failure of provider-administered, conventional behavioral interventions in the fight against obesity epidemic. The aim of this study was to develop a tailored, cost-effective delivery system for a child obesity prevention and management program through technology convergence using Web-enabled smart cellular phones. Methods: Assessment of service needs and development of a delivery system for the program were based on a comprehensive literature review and expert reviews, and results from in-depth interviews and a need-assessment survey. Results: The user- and site-centered service delivery system using Web-enabled cellular telephones as the hardware platform for obesity prevention and management has been developed. A tailored informational service and intervention will be provided interactively between stakeholders through the platform. The potential legal issues associated with the service design have also been considered. Conclusion: The user-centered convergence design and platform based on principles of Transtheoretical Model and Stages of Change using the Health Promoting School framework could enable effective intervention and promote acceptance in the long-run.

This was a 2nd-year study aiming at developing the procedure of alternative system that was intended to restore not only biophysically disturbed areas but also psychologically and socially damaged community. It was suggested that this participatory restoration system could be constructed based on integrative categorization processes consisting of damage types and readiness of local residents for participation. Three case study sites-High-One resort, Lafarge-Halla cement, and high-altitude farmland near Gangneung city, were selected to apply the theoretical framework proposed as a result of 1st-year work. In order to develop introductory programs, key concepts such as forest for future, carbon offset forest, and healing forest, have been suggested based on analysis of 6 system components including human resources, communication, legal and institutional support, financial sources, restoration methods, and activity programs for each site. More detailed processes and procedures can be identified, defined, and refined after the end of final, 3rd-stage of the study in April of 2010.

In this study, the purposes are investigating and analyzing car emission factors for estimating road emissions and the legal framework for the control of particulate matters. At the result, when input emission data are not realistic, the modeling output concentration distributions can lead to a serious distortion of the results. So, the spatial analysis of the dust emission vehicles have to be based on the actual traffic volumes. Because dust emission factors used in the car by National Institute of Environmental Research Method (2010) are mainly targeted for 2003-2007 cars these could not reflect the effect of DPF and the dust emission of gasoline passenger car. So, the real dust emission factors of diesel and gasoline cars need to be developed.
