Reconstruction of Keung-Jae Kim Deuk-shin’s Life
Authors:   HUFS Institute of History and Culture, Im Mi-hyun
Published: June 2022

Geungjae (兢齋) Kim Deuk-shin (金得臣, 1754~1822) was a painter from the Yeong, Jeong, and Sun Dynasties. Born to the Kaesong Kim clan, a noble painter family of the late Joseon Dynasty, he entered the Dohwaseo in his teens and, for more than 44 years, played critical roles of a major painter, living the typical life of a painter during the late Joseon Dynasty. In addition to his well-known genre painting, he was one of the best painters of his time, presenting outstanding skills in almost all genres, including landscapes, figures, furry animals and flowers and birds. Nevertheless, many viewed him with limited perspectives, such as “a painter whose major inspiration was Kim Hong-do” and “a painter only known for genre painting.” Focusing on these aspects, this paper intends to reconstruct Kim Deuk-shin’s life and his influence on Korean painting history.
Born to the Gaesong Kim clan and Shinpyung Han clan, both noble painter families of the late Joseon Dynasty, Kim Deuk-shin received rigorous education from an early age and became an official Dohwaseo painter in his teenage years. After the establishment of Jabidaeryungw hawon (the best painters of their time, temporarily recruited for royal court assignments in the late Joseon period) by Gyujanggak, he was recruited as one of the first Jabidaeryungwhawon and devoted himself to Gyujanggak activities for the next 37 years. He was known to be diligent in all his tasks, small or large, in addition to major painting duties including Gamdong (監董, a temporary official post to supervise and manage special projects such as civil engineering works or publication of books), royal portrait painter for Jeong Dynasty, and production of Hwaseongwonhaengdobyeong. With his talent and attitude, he was a trusted painter, being appointed several times as an official (burok, 付祿) during both Jung and Sun Dynasties.
In addition to his official duties, Kim Deuk-shin was also active in his private works. He grew himself as a painter by interacting with important artists of the Joseon Dynasty, such as Kim Eung-hwan who came from a similar background, as well as Kim Hong-do and Lee In-moon. He received private orders through these personal relations, resulting in general paintings of various genres, as evidenced by his works such as Gosangugok-sihwabyeong and Hanjgangjooyouaheokdo cheob.
Putting Mary Louise Pratt’s Imperial Eyes in Its Right Place in Imperialism Studies
Authors:   HUFS Institute of History and Culture, Park Jihoon
Published: June 2022

In previous studies on chŏpkyŏng, the term has been considered as the translation of a German term ‘Grenze’ which means a ‘border’ in English. In this respect, it has been used to refer to Staatsgrenze, that is, a state border. In contrast, in new border studies, which recently emerged in the field of history, it is suggested as the translation of a contact zone that Mary Louise Pratt coined. By doing so, a group of historians seek to innovate and expand border studies. However, there is a conceptual gap between chŏpkyŏng as a contact zone and what Pratt herself refers to the term. On this basis, this article calls for a more careful and detailed examination of Pratt’s studies. In this context, it aims to put Pratt’s magnum opus, Imperial Eyes in its right place in the history of imperialism studies, clarify the distinguishing features of her inquiry into the nineteenth-century imperialism, and draw some implications for chŏpkyŏng studies.

Authors:   HUFS Institute of History and Culture, Min Hongki
Published: June 2022

Research with an application of evolutionary theory is under active progress these days in various disciplines of humanities and social sciences. However, in the circle of historical studies, combination with the Darwinism is still at a fledgling stage. For the study of history to effectively make use of the Darwinism and evolutionary theory, it is necessary to remove risk factors that can get in the way of research in advance by reviewing the existing studies and research approaches. For this purpose, this paper examined studies by economic historian Gregory Clark and science historian Frank J. Sulloway. Clark and Sulloway proposed new approaches to contemplate on the history through natural selection, a conventional principle of evolutionary theory, and modern evolutionary biology theory named birth order theory, respectively. At the same time, their studies exposed a number of potential problems that can occur when combining the Darwinism and historical studies. The flaws found out in their studies provide guideline for applying the Darwinian Theory in future historical studies.

Published: June 2022

The global media migration from traditional public relations to digital public relations is a new realm of research and the purpose of this study was to investigate social media as a digital public relations tool by the national and sub-national governments in Nigeria. The knowledge-gap on the frequency of usage of social media as a digital public relations tool by the Nigerian national and sub-national governments and the levels of e-participation by the online audience as at February 28, 2022, formed the basis of the investigation. The methodology of the study was the qualitative approach, with descriptive research as the research design. The findings of the chapter show that all national and sub-national governments use a minimum of two and a maximum of six social media accounts. Nevertheless, it was found out that the frequency of use ranged from monthly to yearly usage among all the 38 governments in Nigeria and the e-participation levels by the online audience are low. The chapter recommends that efforts should be made for all governments to adopt at least the top four social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram) as digital public relations tools. Also, the full exploitation of Facebook as the foremost social media platform by governments in Nigeria due to its e-participation advantages of comments, shares, likes, and views is recommended. Finally, the study recommends that weekly usage of official government accounts and not governors' personal social media can boost e-participation levels in Nigeria.
Participación ciudadana y transparencia como mecanismos de control en la elaboración de normas reglamentarias
Authors: Rando Burgos Esther
Published: June 2022

En el presente trabajo se examina el papel de la participación ciudadana en la Administración pública particularizado en su potencial capacidad como mecanismo de control de la actividad administrativa, en concreto en el ejercicio de su potestad reglamentaria. Paulatinamente se ha pasado de, prácticamente, obviar a la ciudadanía, a que la misma tenga un papel fundamental, interviniendo en la configuración de las normas reglamentarias en un momento anterior a su propia elaboración, a través de las “consultas ciudadanas”. Este avance tiene su fundamento tanto en las propias previsiones constitucionales desarrolladas legislativamente, como en el papel que ha desempeñado la Unión Europea en su firme apuesta por la gobernanza y con ella la participación ciudadana, la transparencia o el buen gobierno. No obstante, aún queda camino por recorrer para lograr una efectiva y real participación de la ciudadanía en la elaboración de normas reglamentarias.

Published: June 2022

Because of the heat flow and temperature, marine diesel engine exhaust gas energy is by far the highest desirable among the waste heat sources of a ship. Waste heat recovery systems generate electrical power by using this exhaust gas energy. The goal of this study is to measure how much the power turbine generator improves the system's efficiency for 3 different engine loads and 3 different ambient conditions. This study presents a power turbine generator using a six-cylinder low-speed marine diesel engine. Analyses are performed by considering three different ambient conditions and three different diesel engine loads, and the exergy destruction of each component, exergy efficiency, exergy destruction rate, efficiency increases, and power output of the system is calculated. Besides that, the payback period is calculated according to the installation cost of the power turbine generator and the cost of the fuel saved annually. Based on the analysis, the highest power output for the power turbine generator occurred under 100% engine operating load and winter ambient conditions, and the lowest power output occurred under 75% engine operating load and tropical ambient conditions. On the other hand, for the same ambient conditions, the highest efficiency increase occurred at 90% engine operating load, and the lowest efficiency increase occurred at 100% engine operating load. In the power turbine generator, it is observed that the shortest payback period is 100% engine operating load and winter ambient condition.

Published: June 2022

Market segmentation remains one of the most important approaches used in tourism to provide crucial information regarding visitors’ profiles. Considering the importance of state and national parks to the tourism industry, there is an increasing interest in examining the motivations of park visitors. Drawing on the push-and-pull theoretical framework of tourist motivation, this study employs a canonical correlation analysis and an overlapping segmentation approach to gen-erate market segments of visitors to a state park system in the United States. A total of 2,822 past and current visitors were surveyed and consequently assigned to three overlapping market segments based on the results of canonical correlation analysis. The segments were labeled as “Connecting with Nature,” “Experiential Recreation,” and “Family Bonding.” Specifically, the “Family Bonding” market seg-ment was found to have the most overlap with the other two groups. On the other hand, the segment of “Experiential Recreation” had the least overlap, suggesting that the members of this segment are uniquely defined and display a high degree of homogeneity. Additionally, 75 visitors were found to overlap across all three seg-ments. Such findings suggest that this group of respondents score positively on all motivation items and share the same preferences of state park systems’ attributes. Thus, park managers should refrain from assigning visitors to fit just one segment and target the potential visitors considering the substantial overlapping between groups. The study findings have important practical implications for state park sys-tem managers and provide critical insights to inform future marketing strategies and to improve parks’ offerings.

The findings demonstrate the feasibility of the group intervention in teaching interview skills to people with visual impairments. Overall, study participants experienced greater perceived confidence and preparedness for job interviewing, including answering questions, and emphasizing previous accomplishments. The findings demonstrate the feasibility of using the Direct Skills Teaching (DST) approach in teaching skills related to job interviews to people with visual impairments.
Politics, Economy and Social Culture in Romania during the Transition
Authors:   East European and Balkan Institute, Kim Jeong Hwan
Published: June 2022

After the 1989 revolution, new politicians in the transition period who had to adapt to unfamiliar political atmosphere shared three visions for the future of the country. The first was the restoration of pre-communist history and politics, the second was the declaration of liberalism, and the last was the realization of a social project and political design for this purpose.
However, the political situation in the 1990s was grim due to the deterioration of the National Salvation Front (Frontul Salvării Naţionale) and the unrest in the university square, and the new world was slowly approaching because of the old communists. On one hand, Romania in transition had the dual goal of creating representative democracy systems and practices, and establishing a free market economy system on the other hand. This double transformation was premised on the introduction and settlement of neoliberal ideology according to policy decisions between ‘representative democracy’ and ‘market economy’, and social consensus on democratization and transition to a market economy.
A successful transition was a task given to president Ion Iliescu, who had to lead at a major turning point in 1990~1996, but the historical reality was far more complex and difficult than could have been anticipated and programmed. From president Emil Constantinescu, who made the first democratic transfer of power in 1996, to Prime Minister Adrian Năstase in 2002, the political declarations and experiments of ‘the end of the transition’ and ‘the beginning of a new era’ were repeated over and over again.
Society in the transition had to abandon the paternalistic and authoritarian mindset left behind by the communist ideology and dictatorship of the past. The most important change is the transition from a monolithic system such as a dictatorship to a plural system. Free access to mass media, the opening of the free movement right, and the promise of restoration to Europe have led to a radical acceleration of social change.
In that sense, EU accession in 2007 can be regarded as the end of the transition to the post-communist regime. Romania was officially linked with Europe again politically and economically, as it had been before socialism. This long historical process suggests how the experience of communism affected Romanians’ worldview and how real their integration into Europe was.
Post Covid, The Keywords of International Relation and Survival Strategy of Central and Eastern Europe in the 21st Century
Authors:   East European and Balkan Institute, Kim Chul-Min
Published: June 2022

In terms of international relation, the most important geopolitical-geostrategic code for understanding the Central and Eastern Europe is the ‘Buffer Zone’ between the Powers. Whenever the ‘Buffer Zone’ of the Central and Eastern Europe collapsed, there were the great wars among the Great Powers in Europe, and the surrounding Powers divided the Central and Eastern Europe or tried to secure full influence in the this region. This is very similar to that of the Korean Peninsula, and also the concept of the ‘Buffer Zone’ applies to us as it is.
In this study, I would like to present three major keywords of international relation that can understand the survival startegy of Central and Eastern Europe today. The first keyword is the ‘New Cold War place between NATO and Russia’. The second keyword could be the ‘EU’s strategy for expansion and willingness to protect the Western Balkan through the Berlin Process’. The third keyword is ‘new challenge, China’s One Belt and One Road Initiative’. In the final conclusion, I would like to explain the implications and lessons learned through the major keywords of international relation for understanding the Central and Eastern Europe in the 21st century.
Nuclear Power as a Response to the Climate Crisis: Focusing on the Development and Cooperation of the Nuclear Industry in Russia and France
Authors:   East European and Balkan Institute, Woo June-Mo , Lee Yoon
Published: June 2022

Concerns about global climate change such as ‘global warming’ and ‘greenhouse effects’ have evolved into a desperate expression “climate crisis” in today. Accordingly, the UN adopted the ‘Paris Agreement’ in 2015, and calling for all countries to implement concrete action plans and practices to realize the goal of the ‘Net Zero’(Carbon Neutral 2050). This is the reason why the voices claiming the usefulness of nuclear power generation or the inevitability of nuclear power generation are increasing at home and abroad in recent years. The European Union classified nuclear power plants as a green taxonomy, and the United States is reconsidering its interest in nuclear power plants. Korea has been pursuing a policy to phase out nuclear power for the past five years, but the new government is foreshadowing a policy shift to actively utilize nuclear power.
This study examines the nuclear industry, which is attracting attention again as a way to cope with the climate crisis and meet realistic energy demand, through the cases of Russia and France. As of 2022, Russia is evaluated as a country with the world's best capabilities and competitiveness in the nuclear sector. The EU's nuclear powerhouse France has developed a nuclear industry as a driving force for its energy security and economic development.
Furthermore, the two countries are highly trusted and boast the highest competitiveness as suppliers of nuclear power plants to emerging countries seeking to introduce nuclear power plants. Korea also has experience in exporting nuclear power plants to the UAE and is seeking to export more nuclear power plants at the national level. This is why this study examines the nuclear power plant industry and competitiveness of Russia and France. This study analyzes both instrumental nuclear power plants as a countermeasure against the climate crisis and nuclear power plants as the basis for national economic development.

É inegável que a interferência humana vem trazendo consequências catastróficas para o meio ambiente. Tendo em vista este cenário, a Educação Ambiental busca formar indivíduos críticos e ambientalmente responsáveis, que se preocupem com o meio ambiente e ajam visando a preservação do mesmo. O objetivo deste estudo foi utilizar as ferramentas de mídias digitais para favorecer a divulgação científica e verificar sua efetividade para esclarecer a população. Para isso, realizou-se um estudo de caso com alunos de cursos técnicos integrados ao ensino médio, em um município da região noroeste do Paraná, utilizando como instrumento de investigação os aplicativos Google docs e Nuvem de Palavras. Os resultados foram analisados por meio do método indutivo e de Análise de Conteúdo. A utilização de tecnologia digital audiovisual facilitou a construção do conceito de Antropoceno pelos alunos. Assim, entende-se que a utilização de mídias e ferramentas digitais pode mediar o processo de ensino-aprendizagem e induzir a reflexão dos indivíduos participantes.

Percorremos 2021 concentrados na seleção e editoração dos 56 trabalhos que integram o volume 17 de Terræ Didatica, com a esperança de que um dia haverá maior controle sobre a pandemia de Covid-19 e seus terríveis efeitos, mas o desafio do combate ao vírus ainda demandará esforços dos pesquisadores, das autoridades e da população. As páginas da revista foram permeadas por resultados de pesquisas sobre os efeitos da pandemia na educação geocientífica, com destaque para propostas inovadoras, que revelam o potencial de contribuição das Ciências da Terra ao esforço coletivo de enfrentamento da catástrofe. Reunimos exemplos, ao longo do ano, bem como resultados experimentais e evidências notáveis, de que “as sociedades humanas precisam reaprender a se relacionar com a natureza” (Apresentação de Terræ Didatica, 2021). Plantam-se sementes de inovação quando o pesquisador-educador contextualiza aspectos da realidade local para trabalhar com seus alunos questões polêmicas sobre a relação entre as sociedades humanas e a natureza. Antes de iniciar o trabalho em sala-de-aula, porém, é necessário ampliar e reformular pontos-de-vista para problematizar temas sobre a complexa e intrincada teia da vida na Terra. Cada educador precisa se capacitar e aprofundar conhecimentos sobre a dinâmica ambiental. Os temas da Geoética e da Geoconservação inspiram pesquisas ininterruptas, ao mesmo tempo em que se acumulam estudos-de-caso sobre problemas significativos de degradação ambiental que podem ser mais bem compreendidos a partir das dificuldades elementares – e extremamente desiguais – vivenciadas pelas comunidades.

Não se trata de assuntos novos; são temas estudados e debatidos há um bom tempo. Contudo, após o evento crítico da pandemia, conceitos relacionados à dinâmica da Terra e aos impactos da interferência humana nos processos naturais virão à tona e poderão mostrar que o modelo de sociedade atual deixou de ser eficaz; ao contrário, revela-se frágil e agressivo aos ambientes terrestres e aos ecossistemas. Pequenas boas mudanças poderão advir, e a educação exercerá papel importante na mudança de paradigmas.
The Effect of Trehalose Sugar on Insulin Resistance in Old Rats by Assessing HOMA-IR (Homeostasis Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance)

Published: June 2022

Background: Insulin resistance is a condition in which insulin cannot take up glucose, increasing blood glucose. Elderly people are more exposed to insulin resistance, requiring dietary interventions that extend longevity. Trehalose, a naturally occurring sugar, showed potentially reduce insulin resistance which can be measured using the HOMA-IR index.
Objectives: This study aimed to assess HOMA-IR levels as a parameter of insulin resistance in old rats after giving trehalose sugar.
Methods:  Experimental research with 28 male Wistar rats (Rattus novergicus) was separated into 4 groups, the control group of young rats (Group A), the control group of old rats (Group B), a group of old rats that were given 2% Trehalose solution (Group C), and a group of old rats that given 2% sucrose solution (Group D) that observed for 8 weeks.
Results: The results showed differences in HOMA-IR levels (p<0.001) between old and young subjects. The intervention in Group C was optimal in reducing levels of HOMA-IR (p<0.001) by 18.2% compared with the old control, while Group D increased levels of HOMA-IR by 14.3% (p<0.001) compared with the old control. The age of the subjects with HOMA-IR level is positively correlated (p<0.001; r=0.721) and the weight of subjects with the HOMA-IR level is also positively correlated (p<0.001; r=0.698), indicating that the older and the greater weight of subject resulting in the bigger of HOMA-IR value.
Conclusion: Trehalose is effective in reducing HOMA-IR levels as a parameter of insulin resistance in old rats.
DO PRIVATE BANKS AFFECT ETHIOPIA'S ECONOMIC GROWTH?
Authors: Gadisa Gemechu , Tigre Getu
Published: June 2022

Introduction: Major activities of private sector banks promote changes in a country's economic progress. Many studies have concentrated on the general policy of customer service. As a result, the goal of the study is to look into the impact of private banks on Ethiopia's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth.
Methods: Time-series data of the National Bank from 2011 to 2020 is studied using a dynamic-factor model that is flexible for multi-variable autoregressive data.
Results: The result indicates that mobilization of deposits and domestic investment have a strong positive impact on Gross Domestic Product (GDP), whereas foreign exchange and credit services have a significant negative impact.
Conclusion and suggestion: Private banks play an important role in Ethiopia's GDP growth. Therefore, in order to boost economic growth, banks should collect deposits from all over Ethiopia and use them to fund viable investment initiatives.
Brush Talks and Poetry Exchange in Travel Journals by the T’ongsinsa of 1711 and 1719
Authors:   The Research Of The Korean Classic, Jang Jin-youp
Published: June 2022

This study aims to review the brush talks and poetry exchanges included in the 18th century travel journals produced by the T’ongsinsa (通信使, the Chosŏn envoy to Tokugawa Japan) of 1711 and 1719. First, the brush talks from the T’ongsinsa travel journals of each era were examined. The T’ongsinsa of 1711 produced three different records. Cho Tae’ŏk’s Tongsarok includes exchanged poetry—95 verses under 74 titles. Im Sukwan’s Tongsailgi contains an independent account of brush talk titled Kangguanp’iltam, while Kim Hyŏnmun’s Tongsarok only documented significant episodes from the brush talks and poetry exchanges. Regarding the T’ongsinsa of 1719, the letters exchanged while negotiating diplomatic procedures were included in Haesaillok by Hong Ch’ijung. Chung Hukyo‘s Pusanggihaeng, in its diary portion, provided summarized accounts of the brush talks and poetry exchanges that took place in each era, and then provided 74 verses of exchanged poetry and 11 verses of original rhymes written by the Japanese. Sin Yuhan’s Haeyurok contains nearly 70 entries in diary, and Munkyŏnjapnok provides 36 accounts of brush talks and poetry exchange, showing a clear difference from the records produced in the previous era. Three aspects of the inclusion of the brush talk in these travel journals—produced by the T’ongsinsa of 1711 and 1719—are noteworthy. First, the T’ongsinsa travel journals of this period include more accounts of brush talks, as more such talks were held then. Second, people were becoming more open to the idea of leaving records of the brush talks. The term “brush talk” (筆談) appears frequently in the travel journals of this era, implying its increased recognition as a mode of communication that could be distinguished from the spoken word. Such notion led to a greater focus on “what was being said” in the brush talks than the mere fact that they occurred. The third aspect relates to the characteristics of narrative style. There are two stylistic characteristics apparent in 18th century brush talks in T’ongsinsa travel journals: recapitulation and reproduction of conversation. The former was widely used in T’ongsinsa travel journals of this era, while the latter was partly employed in Pusanggihaeng, and openly utilized in Haeyurok. Haeyurok in particular strategically employed the records of the brush talks in relations to the purpose of writing his travel journal—an important characteristic succeeded by the travel journals of later eras, including Wŏn Chunggŏ’s Sŭingsarok. The most crucial trait of the records of brush talks in 18th century T’ongsinsa travel journals is that an active consciousness formed regarding the utility of “brush talks” as a means of communication, and that its end product came to be employed as an object “worth documenting.” These findings may well be given consideration when examining the accounts of brush talks from Chosŏn envoys’ travel journals produced in later periods.
An Essay on Digital Classics
Authors:   The Research Of The Korean Classic, Ryu In-tae
Published: June 2022

This paper aims to outline the overall topography and academic consequences of the many classical studies that have been attempted as a component of digital humanities study in recent years, as well as to investigate the possibilities of digital classics derived from them. Sketching the design of digital classics may appear to be a contradiction in a situation where it is difficult to provide the traditional denotative definition of classical studies. While it is impossible to define classical studies in an analog context, it is equally worthwhile to investigate the universal qualities of classical studies generated in a digital environment to gain greater clarity on the meanings of classical studies as a “discipline” (學). This is because many components of classical studies undertaken in a digital context assume classical studies’ traditional problematic consciousness. In this sense, the term “digital classics,” as used in this paper, is not a precise definition of a discipline, but rather a broad statement intended to cover all parts of classical scholarship that intersect with digital technology. The continuation of “co-ation” represented by “cooperation” – “communication” – “computation” is necessary for digital classics to function as a point of interaction between classical research and digital technology. As an active exploration and tangible movement to continue such new research activities, a series of knowledge processing methods such as “sharing,” “representation,” and “analysis” of classical data must be accepted.
