W-Extra. “Is outsourcing a social evil or an efficient management?” / Kim Seon Woo

Summary
 One of the hallmarks of development encouraged in the neoliberal approach is outsourcing. Outsourcing is when Western companies move parts of their business to other countries. The reason these companies decided to move is often due to low labor costs. Outsourcing is about business, but because it has a huge impact on women, it is directly related to gender. The reason it's gender-related is that women are mainly people who are hired for these cheap labor jobs and that's why they are hired.

One of the popular places where factories are relocated is China. The main people working in this factory in China are women, and these women travel from their hometowns to remote cities for factory work. The reason these women move is because they can pay not only for themselves, but also for their families. Often these women are expected to get these jobs.

Interesting Point.

 In Korea, under the direction of President Moon Jae-in, all employees belonging to “Incheon International Airport” were recently converted to “regular workers”. The social consequences of this are enormous. This is because “working flexibility” to improve the structure of the Korean economy has not been discussed anytime soon, and all employees of general part-time jobs and outsourcing companies have been regularized.

Discussion.

 Can this be called definition? What should I do for a regular worker who is reversed?

THE ROLE OF ETHNIC GROUPS IN SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT / Kim Ami

1.      Summary This paper critically considers the role of ethnic groups in the social development of Third World countries. Social development is a concept that can only be said when economic development and collective mobilization and action are combined. Writer say that economic development is essential, but that it should have certain social goals because it can lead to some undesirable consequences. In other words, it should be considered from the perspective of Gross National Honourability and social development rather than from the perspective of growth rate of GNP.
