Medicaid spending have been growing much faster than national health insurance spending, as medical expenses and number of visits for medicaid beneficiaries are much larger than those of general public. 30 % of medicaid beneificiares consists of the elderly population, and elderly medical expenses consists of 44% of total medicaid spending. This paper shows agins population can influence growth rate of medicaid spending, and how aging population contributes to medicaid spending. The elderly population is forecasted to increase by 55.8% in 2035. Medicaid spending is forecasted to increase by 27.3 trillion won (0.73% of GDP). The proportion of elderly spending among medicaid spending is forecasted to increase by 64.9% in 2035. The forecasting implies that medicaid program needs to be amended to increase efficiency of the program.

『헤로도토스와의 여행 (Podróże z Herodotem)』에 나타난 리샤르드 카푸시친스키의 저널리즘 철학

최성은(Choi Sung-Eun) 한국중동부유럽학회 2012 동유럽발칸학 Vol.14 No.1

Ryszard Kapuściński (1932-2007) is one of the most famous polish journalists, reporters and writers. Travels with Herodotus published in 2006 was the last reportage of Ryszard Kapuściński. This is an hommage to the life of Herodotus and his work History but is also an autobiographical story of Kapuściński. Kapuściński's books changed the way many of us think about nonfiction and made many of us want to travel for ourselves and see for ourselves. Herodotus, Kapuściński reasonably imagines, interviewed many of his subjects by campfire. Kapuściński described his own work as reportage essay. And, although he was personally a modest man, he believed in its importance for understanding the world. Without trying to enter other ways of looking, perceiving, describing, we won't understand anything of the world. The European mind, he believed, was often too lazy to make the intellectual effort to see and understand the real world, dominated by the complex problems of poverty, and far away from the manipulated world of television. He spoke always about the importance of reportage, and delivered stinging attacks on news as a commodity, and on the flying special correspondents who report on instant drama without context or follow up. He hated what he called the metamorphosis of the media. The value of news in his day, he said, had nothing to do with profits, but was the stuff of political struggle, and the search for truth.

폴란드 콜롬부스 세대와 윤동주의 저항시 비교 연구

최성은(Choi Sung-eun) 한국중동부유럽학회 2002 동유럽발칸학 Vol.4 No.2

There is much similarity between Korea and Poland histories. Both countries have experienced continuous invasions from neighbor countries due to their geopolitical characteristics, and we can find the common point that both countries were occupied by neighbor country, respectively Japan and Germany especially during World War Ⅱ. At that time, Japan prohibited using our own language and alphabet, and they developed the policy of erasing our nation. Also, Nazi, Germany developed the cruel cultural oppression to Polish people. At that time when literature was completely prohibited, there were the resistance poets such as Yoon Dong Joo and Lee Yook Sa in Korea and Columbus Generation in Poland. Columbus Generation is the name that calls the young poets of 20's who had directly joined resistance activities against Nazi at that time. Here, it includes the poets such as Krzysztof Kamil Baczyński, Tadeusz Gajcy, Tadeusz Borowski and Andrzej Trzebiński. Yoon Dong Joo and Columbus Generation have many common points. First of all, all of them were born around in 1920, and they were the young men of 20's during World War Ⅱ. In addition, they directly joined the struggle for their fatherlands' independence, and it is also the characteristic of them that they died at a battlefield or prison and concentration camp even without seeing their fatherlands' independence that they wished so much. Their patriotism, readiness to sacrificethemselves and eagerness for independence, which are pure and passionate peculiar to the youth, are well expressed consistently in Columbus Generation and Yoon Dong Joo's works. If we look into the poems of Yoon Dong Joo and Columbus Generation, we can find the similarity in three aspects. First, they reflect continuously themselves through the object, which corresponds to mirror image. By observing themselves through mirror, they come to reflect themselves objectively, and again this develops into moral reflection. Second common point is that they show the hope for new age through darkness and light images, which are contrary to each other. Here, darkness symbolizes the hopeless present, and light or morning symbolizes the fatherland's independence or idealistic future that the poet wishes. Third common point is that they show their readiness to sacrifice themselves through the image of cross. And, Yoon Dong Joo and Columbus Generation's wishes, who wanted to die amartyr for fatherland, were realized that way in their real lives, thereby all of them died at the battlefield. Yoon Dong Joo and Columbus Generation were the great national poets who gave the light to the nation by sacrificing themselves during the dark period.

폴란드 수용소 문학(Literatura Obozowa)에 나타난 역사적 현실의 미학적 구현방식에 관한 연구 (2)

최성은(Choi Sung-Eun) 한국중동부유럽학회 2011 동유럽발칸학 Vol.13 No.1

In the Polish history of Literature, the term the Literature of the Concentration Camps (Literatura Obozowa) comprehends the general idea of subject matters regarding the camps of the Nazi concentration camps and Soviet labor camps. Due to the geopolitical location of Poland between Germany and Russia, Poland had to experience the historical occupation of their homeland from both neighboring countries. And from the Literature of the Concentration Camps, this research was mainly carried out through 5 Polish literature pieces that dealt with the Soviet labor camps. These are the following 5 literature pieces that have been selected as the research target: 1. Beata Obertyńska - The House of Captivity (W domu niewoli) 2. Józef Czpaski - In the ruthless land (Na nieludzkiej ziemi) 3. Gustaw Herling-Grudziński - A World Apart (Inny świat) 4. Leo Lipski - Day and night (Dzień i noc) 5. Andzej Kalinin - And God forgot us (I Bóg o nas zapomniał) Regarding the literature pieces related to the Soviet labor camp, various forms of novels, writings of what one experienced, poems, memoirs, reportages and etc. were used to depict the camps. Soviet labor camp literature raised an extreme tension not only between reality and literature, but also between history and art. Most of Soviet labor camp literature is a work written by a writer who has direct experience in the Soviet labor camp, informing the reality of the place. Non-experience literature is a work written by a writer who restructured the facts through his or her imagination based on data, documentary investigation, interviews after 1989 year. Documentary character and realism are actually important elements which establish the characteristics of Soviet labor camp literature. Most of writers focus on promoting ‘solidarity of memory’. Soviet labor camp literature simply should not be about the examination of the historical truth and the pursuit of its’ historical value. Instead, the dignified examination of the human mentality and morality combined with humanism, the universal values of human beings should be emphasized to gain the literary and artistic meaning of Soviet labor camp literature.

The most serious issues of the recent Chinese economy are the three great disparity problems-the gap between regions, the gap between urban and rural areas, and the gap between classes. This paper did an analysis on the income convergence of China`s rural residents and of three regions(eastern, central western), employing a panel data of Chinese provinces for the period of 1978~2011. The result shows that the income of rural residents has converged in all the three regions. While, prior to 2001, the level of income convergence was the highest in the central region. But, after 2001, the western region marked higher convergence than the central region. This means that the great western development projects have contributed to increasing the income level of the rural areas in absolute terms and to the improvement of the income distribution of rural residents in western region.

해상민병대 위협과 한국의 대응전략에 관한 소고(小考)

최성일 ( Choi Sung-il ) 한국해양안보포럼 2024 한국해양안보논총 Vol.7 No.1

China’s maritime militias are considered paramilitaries, but they are primarily composed of civilians, and the ambiguity of their status and the asymmetrical nature of their forces limit the effective response of the countries involved. Therefore, this study reveals the true nature of China’s maritime militia, analyzes its activities in the East and South China Seas, forecasts threats, and suggests ways for the ROK to respond. Maritime militias have been deployed to various disputed areas in the East and South China Seas to help achieve China’s political and strategic goals, and today they have grown in volume and into specialized organizations. China can deploy maritime militias anywhere in the world to achieve its national interests, and South Korea’s West Sea, including Eardo, is no exception. There is an urgent need for national efforts to effectively counter China’s maritime militias and reduce the threat before the West Sea turns into a dark gray zone. To this end, we will propose policy alternatives such as raising awareness of the maritime militia threat, establishing a national maritime strategy, establishing an international cooperation system, preparing measures to prevent accidental collisions, establishing a concept for responding to maritime militias, and preparing measures to block illegal activities.

폴란드 문학의 예를 통해 살펴본 19세기 말, 20세기 초 서양문학 속의 동양문화 열풍

최성은(Choi Sung-Eun) 한국중동부유럽학회 2002 동유럽발칸학 Vol.4 No.1

The purpose of this thesis is to examine how the two cultures of the Oriental and the European continents were fused and harmonized, by studying the literature especially of Poland, which was affected by the Orient between the late 19th and the early 20th centuries. Since the medieval ages, cultural exchanges of mankind have been occurred mostly in the way that the West transmits unilaterally and the Orient accepts unconditionally. In the human historical times when such a phenomenon was recognized as a dominant tendency, an Oriental boom rushed to the Western culture in the transition period from the 19th century to the 20th century has a special meaning in the sense that it could be a key to a possibility of an ideal fusion of human cultures. The effects of the Oriental culture firstly appeared in the fields of philosophy and thought. That was resulted from a fusion of the pessimistic philosophy, which was widely propagated by Schopenhauer in the late 19th century, and the Oriental Buddhistic thoughts. The state of nirvana suggested by Buddhism to Europeans, who were annoyed with moral decadens and pessimistic views of the future, became popular as a practical morality. After all, academic interests on India and China were brought about and literary works dealing with Buddhism were in fashion. The center of the interests on the Oriental culture were transferred from philosophy to the art of Japan, which opened the door to foreign countries first. Japanese wood-block prints and the traditional play of no had great effects on the Western impressionism and symbolism. Especially the impressionism affected by the Japanese arts expanded to literature in turn. Many of the visits by the Western writers turned into the chances of writing impressionistic accounts of travels. Korea that adhered to seclusionism at that time emerged not as a direct effect on the Western culture. but as materials for the literature written by some authors of the West. A Polish writer, Wacław Sieroszewski, wrote a book of travel under the title 'Korea, the Key to the Far East' -written in 1905- after his visit to Korea in 1903. He shows a posture open to the Oriental culture and a tolerant attitude without prejudice in his work, which was unusual to Westerners. Like this, at the turning point form the 19th century to the 20th century when the Oriental and the Western cultures met with each other in earnest, the Western scholarship needed the Oriental philosophy and the Western arts needed the Oriental aesthetics. It went by the 20th century, Age of Science and Industry, and has now arrived at the 21th century, Age of Culture and Humanity. With coexistence rather than clash set forth as a premise, the future of mankind could be changed to be positive in the repetitive cycle of the two cultures' mutual response, transmission and acceptance. To fuse and harmonize the Oriental and the Western cultures is the most urgent and important problem given to human beings in the 21th century.

Karol Wojtyla, Polish, wanted to be a poet in his youth. He studied polish literature in Jagiellonian University. After that he went on the platform formally and published two collections of poems and several pieces of plays. In 1978, he was appointed as the Pope for the first time as a Slavs and after 465 years Hollander St. Hadrianus Ⅵ, non-Italian Pope, was appointed. After that, Pope John Paul Ⅱ put much effort into publishing encyclical. message, conversation, aphorism, preaching statement, meditation and etc. Giving up the his desperate dream of being a poet as a youth, he approached to the readers as the Pope not the writer. When counting the writings he has completed after being appointed as the Pope, the amount of it comes up to about 150 volumes of books. He, now, has published his first collection of poems, 『Roman Triptych 』, for the first time in 25 years. This collection of poems, simultaneously published in Italy and Poland, recorded sales over 300,000 copies in Poland alone and is being the talk of the world. Of course, poems and plays we previously wrote has been translated and published into various languages but this is the first time for him to publish the collection of poems with new poems after he was appointed as the Pope. In that this is the first poem he wrote as the Pope John Paul Ⅱ, it is getting huge interest and attention all around the world. In this research, I will sincerely look over the studies in work of poet Karol Wojtyła who has not been evaluated roperly just because he was the Pope, giving emphasis on the piece of work titled 『Roman Triptych』. 『Roman Triptych』 contains three poems by Pope John Paul II, the first ones written and published during his pontificate. The Holy Father chooses three stunningly powerful images from nature, art, and Scripture as the framework for this 『Roman Triptych』, a mountain stream, the Sistine Chapel, and the story of Abraham and Isaac. Throughout the trio of poems, he reflects on God as the origin and end point of human life and all creation. He also ponders the beginning and end of his own reign as pope.
