The Unificationist Funerary Tradition
religions Article The Unificationist Funerary Tradition Lukas Pokorny Department of Religious Studies, University of Vienna, 1010 Vienna, Austria; [email protected] Received: 22 April 2020; Accepted: 17 May 2020; Published: 20 May 2020 Abstract: This paper explores the distinctive funerary tradition of the Unification Movement, a globally active South Korean new religious movement founded in 1954. Its funerary tradition centres on the so-called Seonghwa (formerly Seunghwa) Ceremony, which was introduced in January 1984. The paper traces the doctrinal context and the origin narrative before delineating the ceremony itself in its Korean expression, including its preparatory and follow-up stages, as well as its short-lived adaptation for non-members. Notably, with more and more first-generation adherents passing away—most visibly in respect to the leadership culminating in the Seonghwa Ceremony of the founder himself in 2012—the funerary tradition has become an increasingly conspicuous property of the Unificationist lifeworld. This paper adds to a largely uncharted area in the study of East Asian new religious movements, namely the examination of their distinctive deathscapes, as spelled out in theory and practice. Keywords: Unification Church; funeral; death; ritual; new religious movement; Korea; East Asia 1. Introduction “‘Death’ is a sacred word. It is not a major expression for sorrow and pain. [ ::: ] The moment one enters the spiritual world is a time that one enters a world of joy and victory with the earthly life having blossomed, the fruits borne, and the grain ladled. It is a moment we [i.e., those staying behind] should rejoice. It should be a time when we celebrate wholeheartedly. -

Korea Real Estate Market Report
Vol. 5 Korea Real Estate Market Report 2016 Real Estate Market Trends and 2017 Outlook Real Estate Research Institute of KAB KAB Real Estate Market Report Greetings This is the fifth volume of the Korea Appraisal Board (KAB) Real Estate Market Report (2016 Real Estate Market Trends and 2017 Outlook). With the enactment of the Korea Appraisal Board Act in September 2016, KAB has undergone a transformation from an organization specializing in real estate appraisal to an organization dedicated to real estate market surveys and management as well as making announcements of official land value and related statistics. Maintaining order and stability in the Korean real estate market is an especially important task undertaken by KAB. The KAB Real Estate Market Report published semiannually in the first and second halves of the year provides reliable information on the real estate market including the future outlook, based on comprehensive and in-depth analyses of the current trends, with the aim of ensuring order in the real estate market. The real estate market in Korea in 2016 became more stable compared to the previous year due to the influence of the economic slowdown and the new loan restriction policy concerning tighter loan review regulations. Notable trends in the year included the overheated pre-construction parceling-out market for the Gangnam reconstruction projects and the rise in housing prices in the Seoul Capital Area; however, following the announcement of the real estate policy on November 3, 2016 speculative investments declined, and the market became more stabilized centering on actual demand. Also, in some of the regions outside the Seoul Capital Area, real estate prices began to be on a downturn as a result of an industrial recession and increased housing supply. -

2011 JOINT CONSULTING PROJECTS with WB Case Studies
2011 JOINT CONSULTING PROJECTS WITH WB Case Studies of Korea’s Public-Private Partnership 1 2011 JOINT CONSULTING PROJECTS WITH World Bank (WB) 1. Overview 1.1. Project Background and Objective 1.1.1. Project background Between 2004 and 2011, the Korean Ministry of Strategy and Finance (MOSF) had provided customized policy consulting services for nearly 300 projects in 34 countries as part of the Knowledge Sharing Program (KSP). In 2011, the MOSF newly launched KSP joint consulting with Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs)1, developing the former bilateral partnership (between Korea and a partner country) to a trilateral partnership (among Korea, international organizations and a partner country). In this process, the MOSF concluded a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with five MDBs and established a foundation for joint consulting. In accordance with the MOU, the MOSF implemented KSP joint consulting through discussion with the MDBs including WB, ADB and IDB. KSP is a development partnership project that facilitates economic and social growth of developing countries by sharing Korea's experiences; offering policy research, consulting service and training programs customized to the recipient countries' demand and conditions; and supporting their institution-building and capacity-building efforts. The trilateral KSP, developed from the bilateral KSP, can benefit from regional expertise of the MDBs as well as Korea's experiences of economic development and provide customized consulting service to countries in need. Therefore, it will create synergy effects and deepen a cooperative partnership with the MDBs and with developing countries. 1.1.2. Project objective As part of KSP-MDB joint consulting project, the MOSF and World Bank Institute (WBI) 2 agreed to conduct case studies of successful Public Private Partnership (PPP) in Korea. -
