CONFERENCE THEME: “The Local Bridging the Global” Globalization is one of the global topics in geography. There is no exception in East Asia. In fact, translocal exchanges of ideas, commodities, cultures, languages, people, arts, and philosophies existed hundreds of years ago along the Silk Road that expanded Asia towards the “new world.” Humans have overcome physical and technical barriers between geographic locations separated by long distances, and now can communicate with each other in much faster and easier ways. Roads, routes, sea lanes and airlines are not the only ones that connect the local to the global. Uniqueness, matchlessness, and originality are essential for the local to become globalized no matter where you are. As a matter of fact, everybody you meet has an original point of view. Open up your eyes and ears, and let’s work together to make things better. It’s a simple message. We need to believe in ourselves and realize the values of our society. From this perspective, let’s take this opportunity to place international insights on the local bridging the global! FEATURED TOPICS The conference will feature more than 100 presentations and posters by young and leading scholars, researchers, educators, and students. We encourage all participants to expand their local and global thinking and play an active role in the conference. Major topics of the 2014 meeting will include (but not limited to): Physical geography: geomorphology, hydrology, climate change, meteorology Hazards, disasters& risk management Environmental studies: landscape, ecosystems, energy Urban geography: population, urban structure, transportation, planning History & culture Gender issues Regional development Economic geography Social & political geography Tourism & foods Energy & policy Agriculture & rural studies Health &social justice GIScience: GIS applications, remote sensing, geographical methods, cartography Geography education 1 SCHEDULE AT A GLANCE July 6 (SUN) July 7 (MON) July 8 (TUE) July 9 (WED) July 10 (THU) morning Academic session Academic session Lunch Lunch Registration Academic session Academic session Field excursion Departure afternoon Coffee break Coffee break (Busan & vicinity) Academic session Academic session Opening ceremony Short field trip Closing ceremony evening Plenary session (optional) & Welcome party Banquet dinner OFFICIAL LANGUAGE English IMPORTANT DATES Session Proposal Deadline April 04, 2014 Early Registration Deadline April 11, 2014 Regular Registration Deadline May 02, 2014 Paper Submission Deadline May 30, 2014 REGISTRATION All participants must register for the conference meeting before submitting a paper.

  • Part 1:Peace and Unification
    Part 1:Peace and Unification Q1 A138th On June 25th the KPA army crossed the 38th parallel with tanks and artillery and quickly started to overrun South Korea. The southern ROK forces were not as well for war and quickly. The North Koreans would have probably secured the peninsula if UN forces had not intervened. The US interest in Korea was mostly to keep Japan secure and limit the USSR’s. Initially, UN forces were driven back until they occupied only a small of the peninsula in South Korea. Eventually, the UN forces were able to the tide and almost took control of the entire peninsula until China decided to 1 The Korean Armistice Agreement was between the United Nations Command, the Korean People’s Army for North Korea and the Chinese People’s Volunteer Army. The Armistice Agreement supposed to be drafted soon after the Armistice Agreement was signed. However, a peace treaty still has not been reached and North and South Korea are still technically at war. Also, South Korea’s president Rhee never signed the Armistice Agreement because he not accept Korea as being divided. Rhee wanted to completely unify the peninsula but would be unable to do so without the support of the UN forces. Kim Il-Sung also did not want to sign an armistice, to cease. Another provision in the Q3 Armistice was the swapping of prisoners of war. A3 Korean The Joint Security Area was established as the place for negotiation to take place and it is the only place that the North Korean and UNC forces meet face to face.

  • South Korea's Experience with International Capital Flows
    This PDF is a selection from a published volume from the National Bureau of Economic Research Volume Title: Capital Controls and Capital Flows in Emerging Economies: Policies, Practices and Consequences Volume Author/Editor: Sebastian Edwards, editor Volume Publisher: University of Chicago Press Volume ISBN: 0-226-18497-8 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/edwa06-1 Conference Date: December 16-18, 2004 Publication Date: May 2007 Title: South Korea's Experience with International Capital Flows Author: Marcus Noland URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c0155 10 South Korea’s Experience with International Capital Flows Marcus Noland South Korean economic performance over the last four decades has been nothing short of spectacular. During this period the country experienced only two years of negative growth—1980, in the wake of the second oil shock and the assassination of President Park Chung-Hee, and 1998, in the midst of the Asian financial crisis (figure 10.1). Between the initiation of a wide-ranging economic reform program by Park in 1963 and the financial crisis in 1997, real per capita income growth measured in purchasing power adjusted terms averaged more than 6 percent annually, and per capita income stood at more than eight times its level when reforms began. According to the Penn World Tables, at the start of that period the coun- try’s income level was lower than that of Bolivia and Mozambique; by the end it was higher than that of Greece and Portugal.1 Most economists would probably subscribe to the rough notion that more complete markets are preferable to less complete markets.

  • North Korean Counterfeiting of U.S. Currency
    North Korean Counterfeiting of U.S. Currency Dick K. Nanto Specialist in Industry and Trade June 12, 2009 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL33324 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress North Korean Counterfeiting of U.S. Currency Summary The United States has accused the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK or North Korea) of counterfeiting U.S. $100 Federal Reserve notes (Supernotes) and passing them off in various countries, although there is some doubt by observers and other governments that the DPRK is capable of creating Supernotes of the quality found. What has been confirmed is that the DPRK has passed off such bills in various countries and that the counterfeit bills circulate both within North Korea and around its border with China. Defectors from North Korea also have provided information on Pyongyang’s counterfeiting operation, although those statements have not been corroborated. Whether the DPRK is responsible for the actual production or not, trafficking in counterfeit has been one of several illicit activities by North Korea apparently done to generate foreign exchange that is used to purchase imports or finance government activities abroad. Although Pyongyang denies complicity in any counterfeiting operation, at least $45 million in such Supernotes thought to be of North Korean origin have been detected in circulation, and estimates are that the country has earned from $15 to $25 million per year over several years from counterfeiting. The illegal nature of any counterfeiting activity makes open-source information on the scope and scale of DPRK counterfeiting and distribution operations incomplete.
