W7. Arcology / Lee Se Hyun


As technology advances, a variety of businesses are emerging that are essential to everyday life. Of these, what is the oldest and most essential business? It is agriculture. Agriculture is a business necessary to maintain human survival, and a society where agriculture does not exist is difficult to maintain. Emergency disasters such as the Korona 19 have made us realize that agriculture is the most important thing for humans, not the high-tech industry. In the meantime, agriculture has been neglected by other industries, even though it is the most essential industry. We need to pay attention to agriculture once again.

This clip talks about future agriculture. Accurately speaking, we talk about the city of full environmental planning, the arcologe. Arcology is a combination of architecture and environment, meaning an environmentally sustainable community that can be self-sufficient. In other words, food (agriculture) is a self-sufficient community, a futuristic city of current and different situations. If food production is possible in the building, it is an efficient structure that can accommodate dozens of times the current population. The emergence of acolytes will solve the various environmental problems that currently exist. If arcology is realized, the ideal trend of sustainability will be realized.

Arcology is an interesting subject. By 2100, the world population is estimated to be 11 billion. The increase in population is directly linked to environmental destruction. It is expected that the concept of arcology has emerged to solve this problem. However, acolytes are practically impossible to realize. As technology advances, self-sufficient acolytes can emerge. This will cause many problems. Under the capitalist system, acolytes are not feasible. In order to be realized without a problem, we have to move on to communism as Marx said. In addition, institutional mechanisms should be backed up, and people's cooperation is essential. Indeed, it is questionable whether we can go beyond social and cultural issues to realize our own accord. However, acolytes are the most efficient sustainability. We must strive to ensure that various sustainability at the level of the arcology is achieved.


Question

Arcology requires a fairly high level of technology. Can it be implemented by 2100 when it approaches the population acceptance threshold?

W4. Millennium Development Goals / Lee Se Hyun

Summary The Millennium Development Goals were established under the International Development Goals. Millennium Development Goals, or MDGs, sought 191 U.N. member states and more than 22 international organizations to achieve their goals by 2015. MDGs have promoted the development of the international community. Poverty, hunger eradication, universal education level, gender equality, disease, environment and development of developing countries were targeted. However, it has been criticized for lack of legitimacy, neglect of female inequality in employment, and uneven achievement rate, but it has contributed a lot to many equal development. Interesting point I knew that international politics was carried out in a complex and selfish atmosphere. However, upon encountering the MDGs, I learned that the international community is making great efforts to ensure human rights. Among the MDG criticisms, criticism of women's inequality was interesting. The phenomenon of female ineq...

What is meant by that? / Lee hayoung

Q. Society is not determined by technology, nor is technology determined by society. Both emerge as two sides of the sociotechnical coin. What is meant by that? A. So to begin with, I think that society and technology are the relationships that influence each other, the concepts that one cannot include or dominate. There is technology in society, and technology exists because there is society. I think it's an inseparable relationship, so I think it can be expressed in both sides of a coin.

W10. Human_rights / Lee Se Hyun

Summary Human rights are the basic right to live as a person. This is an absolute domain. Applicable regardless of ethnicity, gender, age, or location and guaranteed by international law. Human rights have been modified and established over a long period of time. From ancient times to the post-World War II international human rights treaties, various changes and considerations continued. Since the 1966 Human Rights Treaty, the concept of human rights has been established and human rights are guaranteed at the international level through the UN, an international organization. Also, various efforts are made to ensure human rights in the community. Human rights organizations are established in continental units such as Africa, America, Asia, and Europe, to strive for the self-reliance of the vulnerable classes and countries. Human beings have studied human rights for a long time. Thus, the theory of human rights exists, and there are various views on human rights. Interesting point ...
