Week 11 | Social Development is Economic Development 2 | Lee Jaeseong

1. Summary
The author began the second chapter, referring to the limitations of the economic benefits of education. Then we talk about social programs, and it's not easy to invest in them and make them work. There is no telling how much economic benefits this will bring back, and it is even more difficult to operate efficiently and well. To solve this problem, the author argued that the transparency of public funds should be made public. And argued that the investment should be made in education.

2. Interesting Point
It was quite interesting to emphasize investment in social programs. And I've heard some evidence that it's good in theory, but it's actually hard to work, which is also interesting. It is very important to disclose whether public funds are operated transparently. A society without trust will eventually be slow to develop.

3. Discussion
Do you think public funds are transparent to your social programs?

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.

W1. What are the pros and cons of using Naver versus Google for research purpose? - Hanane Ben abdeslam

Naver is an online searching program based in South-Korea. In Korea people are using Naver more than Google or other searching programs.  There is a competitive battle going on between Naver and Google, therefore I listed a few pros and cons of using Naver instead of Google. First of all, Naver’s search algorithm is built around the Korean language, which helps Naver deliver more relevant results than Google on many occasions. This is because the Korean language is different from that of the English language. Therefore, it provides better results. On the other side, Naver is not as good as Google at crawling and indexing. A lot of Korean webmasters are not worried about privacy issues, since they know that Naver is not going to index certain information, So, to avoid security breaches, they simply block Google bot from crawling their sites. Second, if we take the number of indexed sites per user in Naver, it will definitely be smaller than the number of indexed sites per...

W10 Are human rights universal? /SooBin Moon

Are human rights universal?        Human rights are universally a basic right that everyone should be respected. The theory, however, is universal, but there are differences between people in actually respecting human rights. The scope of human rights respected depends on the country, region, etc. to which the person belongs. Still, countries like India do not legally exist, but are still discriminated against in substance. And some Arab countries are still discriminated against on the basis of gender. And the people of poor countries in Africa have nothing to eat, and there are areas where life is difficult to maintain, so human rights to life cannot be respected. In the past, China's population-restricted policies and others have made some people in China think they are not in the world because their existence is not legally registered, and they do not have human rights. Besides this, various people are not respected for various reasons.
