L’UIESP et le Comité national d’organisation coréen(CNO) attendent jusqu’à 2 500 partici- pants. Le Congrès débutera le lundi 26 août 2013 et s’achèvera le samedi 31 août 2013. Le pro- gramme scientifique comprend 290 séances scientifiques, 32 séances de posters, quatre séances plénières et de débats, ainsi que des sessions de formation, des réunions parallèles et des stands d’exposition. L’Assemblée générale des membres de l’UIESP se tiendra le jeudi 29 août à 19h dans la salle Grand Ballroom. Le Comité national d'organisation coréen a organisé une Journée Asie-Pacifique, qui com- prend huit séances spéciales invitées et une séance plénière qui se tiendront les 27 et 28 août. Ces séances spéciales porteront sur les particularités démographiques de la région, et no- tamment sur les tendances et les évolutions démographiques en Corée du Nord, le dévelop- pement socio-économique et les changements démographiques en Corée du Sud, la très faible fécondité ainsi que les défis du vieillissement rapide de la population. Des séances seront également consacrées aux récentes innovations en matière de technologies de l'information et de la communication, et à l'impact de ces innovations sur les questions démographiques telles que le vieillissement de la population, la fécondité, les migrations et la santé, ainsi que leur contribution à l'amélioration de la collecte et de l'analyse des données démographiques. La séance plénière du CNO du mercredi 28 août sera suivie d'un banquet dans la salle Exhibi- tion Hall 1, au 1er étage, organisé par le Comité national d'organisation coréen auquel tous les participants sont cordialement invités. Le Comité international d’organisation (CIO) et le CNO remercient chaleureusement toutes les personnes qui ont bénévolement consacré leur temps et leur expertise pour réaliser ce congrès. Le CIO est particulièrement reconnaissant envers les responsables de thèmes, les organisateurs des séances scientifiques et les centaines de chercheurs qui, de par le monde, ont manifesté leur intérêt pour ce congrès en soumettant des résumés et en préparant des communications scientifiques et des posters. 5 Message from the President of the International Organising Committee On behalf of the National Organising Committee, it is my great pleasure and honour to welcome all of you to the 27th IUSSP International Population Conference in Busan, Korea. Busan, Korea’s second largest city, is a place where tradition meets modernity in perfect harmony, encompassing picturesque shorelines, UNESCO World Heritage Sites and one of the world’s largest shipbuilding yards in close proximity. Mr. Peter McDonald, president of IUSSP, told the mayor of Busan that the number of those who submitted their papers for presentation at the Conference is greater than ever before. South Korean President Park Geun-hye and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon have also paid particular attention to the Conference. To meet your expectations, we have made utmost efforts to prepare for the event. We feel most privileged to be hosting this event as we are attaching an extra special meaning to it being held in our nation. Korea now stands at an important crossroads in its demographic transition. The population policy to once lower the birth rate in the past now needs to take a "U-turn" in the midst of a rapidly aging population with an extremely low birth rate in order to reverse the current trend and prevent significant population decline in the future. I hope that the Conference will serve as an occasion to head for a better path towards demographic development by offering new models for the “future of the world and its population.” I also hope that this conference, which gathers together participants from all over the world, will help you know Korea better. Once again, I welcome all of you and I wish you a rewarding and memorable stay in Busan. Park Un-tae, President The 27th IUSSP International Population Conference 6 Message du président du Comité international d’organisation De la part du Comité d’organisation, je vous souhaite la bienvenue au 27ème Congrès inter- national de la population de l’UIESP. Ville hôte et deuxième grande ville en Corée, Busan marie tradition et modernité dans une harmonie parfaite. Un littoral remarquable, des sites inscrits au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO ainsi qu’un des plus grands chantiers de construction navale du monde sont ses atouts majeurs. M. Peter McDonald, président de l’UIESP, a déclaré au maire de Busan que le nombre de celles et ceux qui ont remis leur article pour la Conférence n’a jamais été aussi important. Mme Park Geun-hye, présidente

ABSTRACT This thesis aims to explore and analyse the culture of violence which is, arguably, deeply embedded in South Korean schooling and to suggest how this can be re- directed towards a culture of peace through peace education. In order to achieve this goal, fieldwork was conducted for a year, employing critical ethnography and case studies. Data gained from this fieldwork were analysed and discussed within the conceptual frameworks of Bourdieu’s symbolic violence and peace education theories – Hick’s defining peace in particular. This finding of this thesis fall into four parts: some selected cultural elements of everyday school life; symbolized and institutionalized violence; authoritative school management and increasingly atypical employment; and how to change this culture of violence to peace: possibilities of peace education? These findings are discussed in relation to theories to show the ways in which socio-historical backgrounds and ideologies (e.g.

This research aimed to determine the effect of this increase on smoking cessation among South Korean smokers. Methods: We analyzed data collected by the 2013–2015 South Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of 15,203 South Koreans over 19 years old using regression analysis. We examined the recent non-smoking period of nonsmoking people, prepared according to the survey, and analyzed the recent smoking cessation ratio. Results: Among smokers, from 2013 to 2014, the smoking cessation rate was 7.2%, and it increased to 9.9% in 2015 after the increase in the cigarette tax. In 2015, the recent smoking cessation rate was higher among people over the age of 60 (odds ratio [OR], 2.67) compared to those between the ages of 40 and 49.

Abstract The focus of this dissertation is to show how the media of contemporary Korean popular culture, specifically films, are transformed into “hybrid cultural forms” through the practice of genre transformation. Since the early 21st century, South Korean popular culture has been increasingly spreading across the globe. Despite its growing attention and popularity, Korean pop culture has been criticized for its explicit copying of Western culture with no unique cultural identity. Others view the success of Korean media, both its creative mimicry and its critique of the West, as a new hybrid form that offers the opportunity for reassertion of local identity as well as challenging the global hegemony of the West.

ABSTRACT POPULATION ATTRIBUTABLE FRACTION OF SMOKING FOR TUBERCULOSIS (TB) DISEASE INCIDENCE AND TB MORTALITY IN HIGH- BURDEN TB COUNTRIES by GENET AMERE _____________________ Background: Globally, there are 10 million new cases of tuberculosis (TB) disease annually and 95% of cases occur in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). More than 1 billion people use tobacco, and 80% of tobacco users reside in LMIC. Smoking approximately doubles the risk of TB disease and is associated with excess mortality during TB treatment. We aimed to estimate the proportion of annual incident TB cases and TB mortality attributable to tobacco smoking in high burden TB countries. Methods: To estimate population attributable fractions (PAF), we obtained country specific estimates of TB incidence and TB mortality rates from the WHO 2015 Global TB Report.

    University of Nevada, Reno Watching Women Eat: A Critique of Magical Eating and Mukbang Videos A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication Studies By Samantha Gillespie Dr. Jenna N. Hanchey/Thesis Advisor August, 2019 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by Samantha Gillespie Entitled Watching Women Eat: A Critique of Magical Eating and Mukbang Vi deos be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts Jenna Hanchey , Advisor Amy Pason , Committee Member Chris Mays , Graduate School Representative David W. Zeh, Ph.D., Dean, Graduate School August, 2019 i Abstract This project interrogates how Mukbang shows in online spaces both function to rebel while simultaneously reinscribe hegemonic thinness culture. Through the audience’s discourse and the way viewers discuss women eating in public spaces, audience members reinforce narratives of thinness culture even when that is not the intention. This occurs because of the dominant narrative that positions women eating in public as a taboo act. In this project I introduce the concept of magical eating to explain how audiences use these eating shows in an attempt to gain agentic capabilities over the constraints of thinness culture, but only further restrain and reinscribe these constructs. This research captures the current climate in how audiences interpret their own relationships with cultural eating and thinness culture ideologies. ii Table of Contents Abstract ……………………………………………. i Introduction …………………………………........... 1 a.

  • Characteristics of Hardcore Smokers in South Korea from 2007 to 2013 Eunkyo Kang, Jung A
    Kang et al. BMC Public Health (2017) 17:521 DOI 10.1186/s12889-017-4452-z RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Characteristics of hardcore smokers in South Korea from 2007 to 2013 EunKyo Kang, Jung A. Lee and Hong-Jun Cho* Abstract Background: As the prevalence of smoking decreased in western countries, a significant proportion of smokers appeared to be particularly resistant to quitting- “hardcore” smokers. This study examines the characteristics of hardcore smokers in South Korea. Methods: We used the data from 2007 to 2013 from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Hardcore smoking was defined as (1) smoking >15 cigarettes per day, (2) having no plans of quitting, and (3) having made no attempts to quit. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the association between various sociodemographic variables and hardcore smoking. Results: The proportion of hardcore smokers among smokers did not change significantly from 23.1% in 2007 to 23.0% in 2013. None of the three characteristics of hardcore smokers for either gender showed a significant change from 2007 to 2013. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that hardcore smokers were 1.64 times (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.28–2.11) greater among those aging 40–49 years than among those aging 19–29 years, and four times greater among men than women. Never-married smokers were less likely to be hardcore smokers than married ones (odds ratio 0.79; 95% CI, 0.66–0.96). Household income and education level did not have any significant association with the likelihood of a hardcore smoker.

    MELODRAMATIC AND FORMULAIC: THE GLOBAL APPEAL OF KOREAN TELEVISION DRAMAS A Thesis submitted to the FAculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partiAl fulfillment of the requirements for the degree off MAster of Arts in CommunicAtion, Culture and Technology By KAthryn Grace HArtzell, B.A. WAshington, D.C. April 16, 2019 Copyright 2019 by KAthryn Grace HArtzell All Rights Reserved ii MELODRAMATIC AND FORMULAIC: THE GLOBAL APPEAL OF KOREAN TELEVISION DRAMAS KAthryn Grace HArtzell, B.A. Thesis Advisor: MAtthew Tinkcom, Ph.D. ABSTRACT International fervor for KoreAn pop culture has constituted a contra-flow against Western mediA hegemony. Since 1997, the global rise of South KoreA’s entertAinment industries has come to be known as the KoreAn WAve, or Hallyu. Contra-flows—subaltern cultural exchanges that move in opposition to Western hegemonic mediA (Thussu 2007, 11)—Are complex, under-investigated, And controversiAl in their importAnce as they exhibit what Arjun Appadurai describes as “disjunctures between economy, culture, and politics” (Appadurai 1996, 33). In contra-flow, cApitAlist power structures are insufficient to understAnd why mediA texts are disseminated across borders, cultures, or lAnguage. This study expands on the investigation of the KoreAn WAve by examining one of its central entertAinment exports—KoreAn dramAs—for their exhibition of hybridized and glocAlized genre conventions. I employ a multimethod approach to both estAblish the cinemAtic lAnguage through which KoreAn dramAs tell their stories and to test the sAlience of this framework with non-KoreAn audiences. First, I anAlyze five KoreAn dramAs populAr with English-speAking viewers—utilizing a close reAding—for their use of a melodramAtic narrative mode.
