Evolution Korea Korean scientists don't take any risks in the debate over evolution. The Society for Textbook Revise (STR) has been campaigning to have the Archaeopteryx and horses taken out of textbooks, saying they are typical symbols of evolutionism. Confucian traditions, with their emphasis on global success and the value of education, still dominate the culture of the country. However, Korea is seeking an alternative development model. Origins The growth of Iron Age culture brought more sophisticated states such as Goguryeo Baekje and Silla to the Korean peninsula. All of them had their own distinct cultural style that blended with the influence from their powerful neighbors. They also adopted elements of Chinese culture, including Confucianism, Buddhism and shamanism. Goguryeo was the first of these kingdoms to establish its own system of government on the Korean people. It established a king centered system of government in the 2nd century. Through a series wars it eliminated those who were loyal to the Han dynasty from the north of the peninsula. It expanded its territory into Manchuria too. During this period, a regional confederation called Buyeo was created. In the Samguk yusa of the 13th century Wang Geon's name was listed as king. Buyeo was later referred to as Goryeo and this is how the name Korea was born. Goryeo had a strong commercial economy, and was a centre for education. Its inhabitants cultivated crops and raised livestock such as sheep and goats, and they made furs from them as well. They performed masked dance-dramas like tallori and sandaenori, and celebrated an annual festival in December called Yeonggo. Goryeo's economy was boosted by brisk trade with other countries as well as the Song dynasty of China. Traders from Central Asia, Arabia, Southeast Asia and Japan came to Byeongnando which was the entrance to Gaeseong's capital city. Gaeseong. Silk and medicinal herbs were among the products they brought. From around 8,000 BCE around 8,000 BCE, the Koreans began establishing permanent settlements and cultivating cereal crops. They also developed polished pottery, stone tools and started organising themselves into clan societies. The Neolithic Age lasted until the 12th century BC. At the time, Gija, a Shang dynasty prince from China, is said to have introduced high culture to Korea. Until the 20th century many Koreans believed that Dangun and Gija gave Korea its people and their culture and their basic culture, respectively. Functions Korea's previous development model, which emphasized the role of state-led capital accumulation as well as government intervention in industries and business, contributed to rapid economic growth, which took it from being one of the world's poorest nations to the ranks of OECD countries in three decades. This model was rife with moral hazards and outright corruption. It was therefore not sustainable in a world economy characterised by trade liberalization and democratic change. The current crisis has revealed the weaknesses of the current model, and it is expected that a new model will be developed to replace it. The chapters 3 and 4 explore the genesis of Korea's state and business risk partnership and demonstrate how the emergence economic actors who had an desire to maintain the system impeded Korea from making major changes. By focusing on corporate governance and the allocation of financial resources, these chapters provide a detailed examination of the underlying causes of the crisis and point towards ways to move forward with reforms. Chapter 5 examines the possibilities for Korea's post-crisis evolution of the development paradigm and examines both the legacy of the past and the new trends brought about by the IT revolution. It also analyzes the implications of these trends for Korea's social and political structures. The major finding is that there are a variety of emerging trends that are transforming the nature of power and will decide the future of the country. For instance, despite fact that political participation is still highly restricted in Korea, new ways of political activism bypass and challenge political parties, thereby transforming the democratic system in the country. Another significant finding is that the power of the Korean elite isn't as strong as it was in the past, and that a large portion of society has a sense of disconnection from the ruling class. This fact indicates the need for greater civic education and participation and new models of power-sharing. The chapter concludes by stating that the success of Korea's new development paradigm will be determined by the extent to which these trends can be combined and the willingness of people to make difficult choices. Benefits South Korea is the world's ninth-largest economy and sixth fastest growing. It has a large and growing middle class and a robust research and development base that drives innovation. The government has recently increased its investments in infrastructure projects to boost economic growth and encourage social equity. In 2008, Lee Myung Bak's administration announced five leading indicator in an effort to establish an economic system that was focused on changes and practicality. It aimed to streamline government organization, privatize public companies with more efficiency, and also reform administrative regulations. Since the ending of the Cold War, South Korea is pursuing a strategy for integration of its economy the rest of the world and beyond the region. Exports of advanced manufacturing technology as well as high-tech consumer electronics have become a major source of income. Additionally the government has been pushing the Saemaeul Undong (New Community Movement) initiative, transforming the nation from a rural society to one that is focused on manufacturing. The country has a great quality of life and provides many benefits to employees such as maternity leave, and job stability. Additionally, employers are required to purchase accident insurance that covers payments related to work-related illness or injury. It is also common for companies to provide private medical insurance that provides protection for illnesses that are that are not covered by the National Health Insurance. As a result, South Korea has been thought of as a model for success for many of the developing countries around the world. However the global financial crisis that hit Asia in 1997 challenged this view. The crisis challenged the myths about Asia's miracle economies, and led to a fundamentally reappraisal on the role of government in regulating risky private ventures. In the wake of this shift it appears that Korea's future is still unclear. A new generation of leaders have taken on the image as an "strong leader" and begun to explore market-oriented policies. On the contrary, a strong domestic power base has made it difficult to implement radical change. ???? ??? ?? and resurgence of creationists is a major obstacle to Korean science's efforts to educate people about evolution. The majority of Koreans are in favor of teaching students about evolution however, a small section headed by Bun-Sam Lim (the head of the Society for Textbook Revise, STR) is advocating for its removal from textbooks. STR argues that teaching evolution promotes "atheist materialism" and portrays an "unhopeful" perspective for students, which can cause students to lose faith in humanity. The causes of anti-evolutionist opinions are a complex and diverse. Some researchers suggest that it is due to religious belief, while others point to an increasing prevalence of anti-intellectualism, which has been exacerbated by growing political elite fragmentation along ideologies, regions, class, and gender. The one-sided populism, supported by powerful conservative think groups, business interests, and other influential groups, has also exacerbated public mistrust of the scientific community. In the final analysis the study's findings about widespread vulnerabilities highlight a need for targeted policies to mitigate them in advance. These findings will assist Seoul to achieve its goal of creating an urban landscape that is cohesive. In the case of the COVID-19 pandemic, identifying vulnerable neighborhoods and their occupants is crucial to develop detailed compassionate policy measures to improve their safety and wellbeing. For instance, the high impact of the disease on Jjokbangs is a reflection of the socioeconomic disparities that could increase the vulnerability to natural and man-made disasters. To overcome this, South Korea needs a more inclusive civil society that can bring all communities together to address the city's most pressing challenges. This requires a fundamental shift in the structure of the institution beginning with the power of the president. The Blue House can mobilize a large bureaucracy and utilize the Supreme Prosecutor's Office, and the intelligence bureau to exert influence on the political scene. These agencies aren't subject to oversight by parliamentary bodies or independent inspectors. This gives the president the ability to dictate their own vision on the rest of the country. This is a recipe for political polarization that could lead to stagnation and polarization in the country.
