    Order Code RL33567 Korea-U.S. Relations: Issues for Congress Updated July 25, 2008 Larry A. Niksch Specialist in Asian Affairs Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Korea-U.S. Relations: Issues for Congress Summary The United States has had a military alliance with South Korea and important interests in the Korean peninsula since the Korean War of 1950-53. Many U.S. interests relate to communist North Korea. Since the early 1990s, the issue of North Korea’s development of nuclear weapons has been the dominant U.S. policy concern. Experts in and out of the U.S. government believe that North Korea has produced at least six atomic bombs, and North Korea tested a nuclear device in October 2006. In 2007, a six party negotiation (between the United States, North Korea, China, South Korea, Japan, and Russia) produced agreements encompassing two North Korean and two U.S. obligations: disablement of North Korea’s Yongbyon nuclear installations, a North Korean declaration of nuclear programs, U.S. removal of North Korea from the U.S. list of state sponsors of terrorism, and U.S. removal of North Korea from the sanctions provisions of the U.S. Trading with the Enemy Act. In June and July 2008, North Korea and the Bush Administration announced measures to implement fully the agreements by October 31, 2008. The Bush Administration has subordinated to the nuclear other North Korean activities that affect U.S. interests. North Korean exports of counterfeit U.S. currency and U.S. products produce upwards of $1 billion annually for the North Korean regime.

We argue that the combination of human and machine curation on media portals marks a new period for news media and journalism. Although intermediary platforms routinely claim that they are merely the neutral technological platform which facilitates news and information flows, rejecting any criticisms that they are operating as de facto media organisations; instead, we argue for an alternative, more active interpretation of their roles. In this article we provide a contemporary account of the South Korean (‘Korean’) online news media ecology as an exemplar of how contemporary media technologies, and in particular portals and algorithmic recommender systems, perform a powerful role in shaping the kind of news and information that citizens access. By highlighting the key stakeholders and their positions within the production, publication and distribution of news media, we argue that the overall impact of the major portal platforms of Naver and Kakao is far more consequential than simply providing an entertaining media diet for consumers.

    MEDIANE Media in Europe for Diversity Inclusiveness EUROPEAN EXCHANGES OF MEDIA PRACTICES EEMPS Pair: CMFE 07 OUTPUT FAR AWAY, YET SO CLOSE SUMMARY 1. Exchange Partners Partner 1 Partner 2 Name and Surname Sofia BRANCO Claudia DAL-BIANCO Job title Journalist Project coordinator Organisation / Media LUSA – Portuguese News Agency Frauensolidaritaet - NGO 2. Summary Is gender equality at stake in the European context of crisis and austerity measures? This was the leading question of our exchange, to which we have tried to respond by interviewing a wide range of experts in two countries – Austria and Portugal –, similar in population and size, but different on economic and social living conditions. Austria and Portugal are, at the same time, far away and so close. Apart all the differences, we have discovered something (unfortunately) in common: gender inequality is a reality at all levels. The dimension and extent of this finding are shocking. In Austria and Portugal, women are discriminated in several domains: they receive less money for the same job, they are accepted in less social valued jobs, they have difficulties on coming to the labour market after having children, they are more subject to precarious work (Portugal) and part-time work (Austria), they are the main doers of unpaid housework, they are the ones taking care of children, elderly, disabled people. Gender equality is suffering from the crisis, but was already not in a good shape before 2009. The structural problem may have worsened, but what is still lacking, in times of crisis or prosperity, is a structural change. Gender equality takes more than money and social protection, it requires a mindset reset.

A web-based news exchange Aswat al-Iraq (www.aswataliraq.info) was set up to enable Iraqi journalists and media organisations to pool their news coverage. The project also established a training and mentoring programme to help Iraqi journalists build their reporting skills and to improve their understanding of the democratic process, especially important in anticipation of the January 2005 elections in Iraq. A core team of correspondents for Aswat al-Iraq emerged from the groups of journalists trained under the project and in just two months after its launch nearly 500 stories had been published on the news exchange. Iraqi media organisations were quick to show interest in the exchange and support strengthened during the next few months.
