This article empirically explores the understanding and changes in the concept of administrative capacity in the Korean context. Despite a universal consensus on its importance, administrative capacity is defined differently by regimes and stakeholders (i.e. in this study: the public, members of the National Assembly, and academia). To improve our understanding of administrative capacity, we collected three types of texts (337 academic papers, 1470 National Assembly minutes, and 3316 newspaper articles from 2000 to 2019) and analyzed the data using topic modeling and text-network analysis methods. The results suggest that although academic articles emphasized leadership, manpower, education, and other policymaking capacities, the National Assembly stressed innovation capacity in solving different policy problems. Finally, the media, assumed to reflect public opinion, emphasized capacities related to national security. Points for practitioners This study suggests that different types of administrative capacities could be needed according to the developmental stage of states. While managerial and administrative capacity should be developed in countries pursuing state-led economic development, governance capacity could be more requested in countries facing demands for democratization and meeting citizens’ various needs and participation.

Key Terms

This chapter reviews the literature of intelligence accountability, reviews different theories, and introduces readers to key terms such as oversight, review, control, and governance. This book complements the process of intelligence oversight—the practice of holding ISAs to account, whereby ISAs have to justify their activities—with other types and levels of accountability. Typologically, accountability bodies differ by ways and methods they use to hold ISAs accountable: they can review, oversee, or control Intelligence and Security Agencies (ISA), and/or accept and address complaints concerning actions or activities of an ISA. Although conventionally they assessed compliance within an intelligence community, as of late they have been performing additional functions, such as promoting innovation. The different types of accountability are complemented by various layers in which Intelligence and Security Agencies are held accountable: internal, managerial, and external. The chapter introduces readers to the institutional architecture of intelligence accountability: legislative committees, judicial and quasi-judicial bodies, bureaucratic and administrative bodies, and executive oversight. It goes on to review intelligence accountability frameworks: laws, legislatures, the executive, the judiciary, the media, the public, civil society, and the democratic interest. The chapter closes on developments in international and supranational accountability cooperation.

The Media

This article focuses on the growing importance of large-scale events and their central role in a globalised media world in relation to public reactions and public involvement. The peculiar structure of such events requires a different understanding of mass communication and its audience. Therefore, the audience is further examined with regard to its impact on and inclusion in the media itself. Consequently, questions are raised as to how the public is incorporated, the form this inclusion takes and the effect that this has on the audience&rsquo;s participation.<br />The article examines different types of semantic inclusion, with a focus on emotional reactions towards three different media events: the Titanic disaster, the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and the death of Princess Diana.<br />

Policy Problems

Since the beginning of the twenty-first century, enhancing the public sector’s innovation capacity has been high on the agenda of many Western governments. Fiscal constraints and mounting policy problems related to public health, crime prevention, elderly care, immigration, and global warming have intensified the search for new innovative policy strategies and governance methods. Leadership is often mentioned as a key driver of and condition for promoting public innovation but most attention has been paid to the role of public managers as drivers of policy innovation, and the approach to innovation has been managerial rather than political. The main argument made in Chapter 6 is that the public sector’s policy innovation capacity ultimately hinges on the extent to which politicians step into the role of policy entrepreneurs and perform leadership of collective policy innovation processes, rather than leaving this task to public managers. Although there are barriers and dilemmas to overcome, interactive political leadership offers an opportunity for politicians to step into the role of policy entrepreneurs and, by doing so, strengthen the output legitimacy of representative democracy.

<p>El presente artículo analiza en primer lugar, la disparidad y disentimiento de enfoque de los académicos franceses sobre el fenómeno de la radicalización yihadista en Francia. En segundo lugar, analiza las conclusiones del Programa de desradicalización llevado a cabo por el gobierno francés en el año 2016 y otros programas ejecutados por asociaciones del tercer sector. Los expertos franceses en el islam político han cobrado gran notoriedad a partir de los atentados en suelo francés. El enfoque de estos académicos sobre los factores que explican la radicalización ha sido un tema de controversia en los medios de comunicación de masas. La falta de una acuerdo generalizado sobre el origen de esta violencia dificulta el diseño de las políticas públicas en el país, puesto que estos académicos han tomado parte en las ponencias que se han convocado en la Asamblea Nacional y el Senado para definir y orientar las políticas públicas en un sentido u otro. En 2016 en Francia puso en marcha los llamados "programas de desradicalización" como una medida para frenar la implicación de los jóvenes franceses en células yihadistas, sin embargo la experiencia ha sido un fracaso. Otras asociaciones de intervención comunitaria han ejecutado programas siguiendo parámetros de intervención más centrados en itinerarios personalizados. El fracaso del programa del gobierno marca un horizonte del abordaje del fenómeno de la radicalización yihadista en el futuro que deberán ajustarse a otros parámetros de intervención social más centrados en la prevención que en la seguridad.</p><p>This article begins by analizing the disparity and dissent of approach of the French scholars about Jihad radicalism phenomenon in France. Secondly, it analyzes the deradicalization program carried out by the French Government in 2016 and other programs carried out by third sector associations. French experts in political islam have gained great importance since the attacks of French soil. The focus of these French scholars about the factors that explain the radicalization has been a subject of controversy in the media. The lack of agreement about the roots of the violence complicates policy-making in the country, since these scholars have participated with their reports in the National Assembly, and the Senate to define and guide policy-making. In 2016 France applied the so called "Deradicalization programmes" as measure to stop the involvement of French young people in jihadist cells, however the experience has been a failure. Other civil associations have implemented programs from communal actions approaches based on personalized itineraries. The failure of the public programme marks the horizon for public policies on deradicalization in the future. The failure of the public protram marks the horizon for public policies on Jihad radicalism phenomenon in the future, that should adapt to the prevention approach more than to security.</p><p>Palabras clave: radicalización, yihadismo, programas de desradicalización, islamismo radical, prevención.</p>

Neste artigo, é apresentada uma análise de discurso jornalístico acerca das representações sobre o perfil de professor na educação angolana. O objetivo é discutir, linguística e discursivamente, como os meios de comunicação abordam aspectos ligados à educação, com foco na análise dos ditos e não ditos em concurso público para professor de rede pública em Angola, no ano de 2018. Para tanto, foram utilizadas as contribuições teórico-metodológicas de Pêcheux (1988) sobre o interdiscurso e Orlandi (1997) a respeito do silêncio, importantes para o entendimento do “jogo discursivo” entre o dito e não dito sobre o perfil do professor. Para a composição do corpus, foram considerados 14 textos publicados em 2018 no Jornal de Angola. Tal recorte temporal foi estabelecido por coincidir com a realização do concurso público que foi amplamente abordado pela mídia, constituindo a nossa hipótese de que os aspectos abordados pelos meios de comunicação são aqueles para os quais se busca adesão por parte dos governantes. Dessa forma, haveria material para discutir como e quais anseios do setor educacional sobre o futuro professor são representados pela mídia. Cabe ressaltar que as análises da interconexão entre diferentes tipos de discursos poderão possibilitar uma maior compreensão de seu impacto no imaginário que se constrói acerca dos professores, do ensino em geral e da solução para as dificuldades educacionais em Angola.Palavras-chave: Concurso público; Discurso; Educação; Formações imaginárias. ABSTRACT: In this article, we present an analysis of journalistic discourse about the representations of the teacher profile in Angolan education. The objective is to discuss, linguistically and discursively, how the media approach aspects related to education, focusing on the analysis of what has been said and not said in a public tender for new teachers in the public sector in Angola, in the year 2018. In this manner, were used the theoretical-methodological contributions of Pêcheux (1988) on interdiscourse and Orlandi (1997) on silence, important for the understanding of the "discursive game" between the said and not said about the profile of the teacher. In order to compose the corpus, we considered 14 texts published in 2018 by the Jornal de Angola. Such a temporal definition was established because of its coinciding with the public tender that was widely covered by the media, so our hypothesis is that the aspects addressed by the media are those for which acceptance is sought by the government. In this way, there would be material to discuss how and which educational sector expectations of the future teacher are represented by the media. It should be emphasized that the analysis of the interconnection between different types of discourses may allow a better understanding of its impact on the imaginary that is built on teachers, teaching in general and the solution to the educational difficulties in Angola.Keywords: Civil service examination; Discourse; Education; Imaginary formations.

In the fake news era, a combination of politics, big technology, and fear and animosity are blamed for the media mistrust and filter bubbles that are entrenching fragmentation in the public sphere. A partisan divide in the media and extreme political disagreements are nothing new, but new technology, such as social media and mobile push notifications, influences these years-old phenomena and plays an important role in current concerns. This paper explores how stories are represented differently by topic and across platforms, examining representation, polarization, and objectivity. Specifically, this paper looks at those issues from a novel perspective: through sentiment analysis of push notifications generated and archived from the Breaking News App on disasters, gun violence, and terrorism. Results indicate that partisan news organizations (1) emphasize different stories; (2) label the same events as categorically different; (3) hyperbolize and emotionalize different types of stories; and, (4) represent different categories of breaking news stories to different degrees of subjectivity.

Extensive Damage

Most of the approximately 75 known eggs of the extinct great auk ( Pinguinus impennis) are in public museums, with a few in private collections. A small number of these eggs has sustained damage, either at the time of collection or subsequently, and two of these eggs are known to have been repaired. The two eggs suffered rather different types of damage and were subsequently restored using different techniques. The first, known as Bourman Labrey's egg, sustained extensive damage sometime prior to the 1840s, when the shell was broken into numerous pieces. This egg was repaired by William Yarrell in the 1840s, and when it was restored again in 2018, it was discovered that Yarrell's restoration had involved the use of an elaborate cardboard armature. This egg is currently in a private collection. The second egg, known as the Scarborough egg, bequeathed to the Scarborough Museum in 1877, was damaged (by unknown causes) and repaired, probably by the then curator at Scarborough, W. J. Clarke, in 1906. This egg was damaged when one or more pieces were broken adjacent to the blowhole at the narrow end (where there was some pre-existing damage). The media reports at the time exaggerated the extent of the damage, suggesting that the egg was broken almost in two. Possible reasons for this exaggeration are discussed. Recent examination using a black light and ultraviolet (UV) revealed that the eggshell had once borne the words, “a Penguin's Egg”, that were subsequently removed by scraping.
