Before historically tracing the evolution of Korean capitalism from the early 1960s, this chapter locates the current Korean capitalism from a comparative perspective. To explore the extent of change in Korean state-led capitalism and whether the developmental state remains effective under globalization, this chapter first examines what a developmental state is, compared with the Anglo-Saxon free market system and social corporatism. Criticizing the prevalent DS theorist accounts, including both conflating context-specific elements of Korean DS with state-led developmentalism in general, and too broad definition of DS based on developmental mindset, this chapter emphasizes the different modes of economic operation and governance. By exploring different patterns of reconstituting national economy in the course of national corporations’ globalization, this chapter locates the Korean developmental pattern in globalization from a comparative perspective.

Sustainable Economic Growth

By tracing historically the evolution of Korean state-led capitalism and comparing it with other economies, this book criticizes prevalent theories including neoliberalism, the developmental state, and institutionalism, while proposing a theoretical alternative focusing on endogenous changes and institutional adaptability through elite competition within the state. Unlike the arguments of the neoliberals, the state can still play an active role in reconstituting the national economy in globalization. The Korean state successfully fosters economic growth by nurturing industrial commons even in globalization, rather than change toward a neoliberal free market system. In order to better account for sustainable economic growth over a long time, this book emphasizes institutional adaptability through elite competition, rather than offering neoliberal celebrations of the free market and the statist emphasis on the stringent Weberian state. The Korean economy, as well as the East Asian developmental state (DS) economies, could have sustainable development over a long period, not because of an apparent and standardized growth formula, or because of some institutional elements of a stringent Weberian state, but because they have adjusted their methods and strategies of development through competition among elites inside and outside the state, as new challenges, never met with an apparent solution, have continuously emerged. In order to better account for the evolution of state-led developmentalism in Korea, as well as in other countries, this book proposes changes by competition among elites within as well as outside the state, which causes changes in developmentalism and more flexible adjustments in new contexts.

A warm welcome to our "World of Difference" to all delegates attending this conference - we hope your stay is enjoyable and that you will leave Central Otago with an enhanced appreciation of the diversity of land use and the resilient and growing economic potential that this region has to offer. Without regional wellbeing the national economy will struggle to grow, something Central Government finally seems to be realising, and the Central Otago District Council Long Term Plan 2012-2022 (LTP) signals the importance of establishing a productive economy for the local community which will aid in the economic growth of the district and seeks to create a thriving economy that will be attractive to business and residents alike. Two key principles that underpin the LTP are sustainability and affordability, with the definition of sustainability being "… development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."

Even before they started the editorial board of the new Dutch hymnal was blamed for being too elitist. The fact that they had been selected on the basis of their expertise made them vulnerable for such criticism. Subsequently the position of the editors has been a point of continuous reflection. In this contribution, we will argue that this image of editors as dissociated from users of the hymn book is only one among several available identity repertoires. In order to answer the question which ‘identities-in-relation-to-users’ do the editors construct in the meetings of the board and how do they value these identities?, we will use a broad definition of identity and focus on positions performed in social interaction. The interaction in question concerns seven selected meetings of the editorial board, all of which were audio-taped and transcribed. Looking closely at the identities that were constructed during those meetings, we distinguish six positions, ranging from a great to no distance between editors and users: editors, professionals, experienced, vanguard, pleasers and equals.

This article addresses critical ideas about constructing scientific philosophy within the Muhammadiyah and ‘Aisyiyah Higher Learning Institutions (PTMA) circles through the concept of integrating Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan (Islam and Muhammadiyah Principles), abbreviated as AIK, into the process of developing knowledge and science. Thus, the author provides a broad definition of AIK and distinguishes it into three main aspects. In the next step, the author explains two reasons for developing scientific philosophy in PTMA, including internal reasons in Muhammadiyah and Islam and external ones related to the development of modern science. Consequently, two approaches can be applied to integrate AIK into scientific development through objective and subjective approaches. In definition, the objective approach is a way of dealing with the issues through analyzing and re-building the structure of science it including paradigm (ontology), theories and methods (epistemology), and applications (axiology). In contrast, the subjective approach is the enrichment of the scientist through considering science and religion as complementary instead of contradictory.

Theoretical Foundations

Systems and applications aligned with new paradigms such as cloud computing and internet of the things are becoming more complex and interconnected, expanding the areas in which they are susceptible to attacks. Their security can be addressed by using model-driven engineering (MDE). In this context, specific IoT or cloud computing metamodels emerged to support the systematic development of software. In general, they are specified through semiformal metamodels in MOF style. This article shows the theoretical foundations of a method for automatically constructing secure metamodels in the context of realizations of MDE such as MDA. The formal metamodeling language Nereus and systems of transformation rules to bridge the gap between formal specifications and MOF are described. The main contribution of this article is the definition of a system of transformation rules called NEREUStoMOF for transforming automatically formal metamodeling specifications in Nereus to semiformal-MOF metamodels annotated in OCL.

AbstractThis essay reconsiders Charles Ryder’s religious conversion in Brideshead Revisited in terms of a primarily emotional conversion. When reading the novel as a pilgrimage to passion, readers can see in Charles a legitimate, convincing emotional conversion, which should—when emphasizing traditional Catholic ideals—ultimately also be understood as a religious conversion. Charles’s emotional interaction with Catholicism includes his intimate, formative relationship with the Catholic Flyte family, especially Sebastian, and aspects of his career as a Baroque artist, as Baroque art is often identified with Catholicism. It also includes Charles’s disenchantment with both the soullessness of war, which drains its participants of any emotional experience, and the modern world, which lacks connection to depth and tradition. Finally, the emotive power of his inadvertent pilgrimage to Brideshead also connects Charles to Catholicism as the house facilitates Charles’s memories of his religious experience at Lord Marchmain’s deathbed, his artistic conversion to Baroque art, and his passionate friendship with Sebastian. Such a broad definition of Catholicism calls for an expansive understanding of religion, but it is this kind of a religious understanding that Brideshead Revisited recommends.

This article examines participatory rights as human rights and considers their importance to the lives of children and young people. It argues that a broad definition of participation needs to be used which takes us from 'round tables' to understanding that young people participate in many different ways. It points out that failure to recognise and respect the many varied ways that children and young people choose to participate results in a breach of their human rights. It shows how our socio-legal system operates to permit and support these breaches of the rights of children and young people, resulting in their alienation from civic society.

Financial Mechanism

In market conditions, one of the main regulators of economic development is the financial mechanism, a key element of which is the fiscal mechanism for regulating the national economy investment development. Currently, the methods of the fiscal mechanism are not used effectively enough in Ukrainian practice, as evidenced by the low investment attractiveness of the economy and weak investment activity of economic entities. Therefore, the definition of the essence and components of methods of the fiscal mechanism is currently among the important financial and economic issues, the scientific substantiation of which largely depends on the economy investment development. The article is devoted to the study of theoretical approaches to the functioning of the methods of the financial mechanism and on this basis to determine the content and composition of the methods of the fiscal mechanism. It was determined that there are various approaches to understanding the essence of financial methods (as means, forms, methods, rules) and three conceptual approaches to the interpretation of the methods of financial mechanism: management (considers the methods of financial mechanism as processes in which implementation of financial policy); organizational (treats the methods of the financial mechanism as a means of organizing financial relations, which are formed in the process of implementing financial policy); complex (characterizes the methods of the financial mechanism as a process of organizing financial relations to achieve the objectives of financial policy). As a result of research of theoretical bases of functioning of financial methods the essence of methods of the fiscal mechanism of regulation of national economy investment development was substantiated. The main methods of the fiscal mechanism were identified, including planning, organization and control. The basic requirements to functioning of methods of the fiscal mechanism of regulation of the national economy investment development were considered.

Syncretism as language phenomenon, linguistic term and categoryThe author deals with syncretism as both non-linguistic, and linguistic term, notion, language universal, language phenomenon, resulting and deeply interconnected with the language economy principle. First, a broad definition of the term syncretism is given, then the author focuses on theoretical aspects of syncretic issues, taking into account research works by many world-known linguists, predominantly Russian, Czech and some others. Second, syncretism is compared with other notions and terms, used sometimes to described very similar language phenomena, very close to syncretism, such as neutralisation, homonymy, polyfunctionality, polysemy, contamination, language play. The author comes to the conclusion that very often the same language phenomena are called using various terms, syncretic phenomena are not the exception; in various studies the term and notion of syncretism can be understood in different ways.Синкретизм как языковое явление, лингвистический термин и категорияАвтором статьи рассматриваются нелингвистические и лингвистические аспекты син­кретизма как языкового термина и понятия, языковой универсалии, языкового явления, воз­никающего как следствие действия закона языковой экономии. Дается общепринятое опре­деление термина синкретизма, затем автор фокусируется на теоретическом обосновании явления синкретизма, опираясь на работы выдающихся мировых ученых, главным образом, русских, чешских и др. Во второй части статьи синкретизм сопоставляется с другими явлени­ями иизбранными для их наименования в лингвистике терминами, как, например, нейтрали­зация, омонимия, полифункциональность, полисемия, контаминация, языковая игра. Конста­тируется, что не всегда те же самые явления обозначены с помощью тех же самых терминов, явления синкретизма могут обозначаться, используя разные термины, и сама наполненность термина синкретизм варьируется от автора к автору.

The article shows that at present there is no generally accepted definition of the innovative environment in the scientific circulation, which fully reveals its substantive characteristics. The author's definition of the concept of "innovative environment" is proposed. On the basis of the analysis of statistical data, the positive and negative aspects of the innovation environment in the Republic of Belarus have been identified. It is shown that the formation of an innovative environment is an important factor in the sustainable growth of the national economy. A set of measures is proposed to develop an innovative environment, create conditions for effective implementation of innovations and increase the competitiveness of the national economy.
