W8-2 extra) The form of Korean government

The form of the Korean government

The Korean government is a unique form of government that compromises the American-style presidential system, the British-style parliamentary cabinet system and the French-style dual-government system, and in principle belongs to the American-style presidential system.

 In other words, the president, who is the head of the state under the current Constitution and represents the state to foreign countries, is not only the actual executive power, but also has the responsibility to protect the independence of the country, the preservation of the territory, the continuity of the nation and the constitution, and the sincere obligation for the peaceful reunification of the motherland.
Since the president is elected by the people's election, he does not bear any political burden on the National Assembly, as the prime minister in the form of a parliamentary cabinet system. And even if the opposition becomes the majority party in the National Assembly, the president has a strong right to re-delegate legislation that will not be overcome without the attendance of a majority of all incumbent lawmakers and a vote by more than two-thirds of those present.

 As such, the administration can say that the Korean Constitution stipulates a strong administration that can be stabilized without being restricted by the National Assembly for five years, and that it will have no choice but to go to a U.S.-style presidential system in actual operation, although it is a compromise government system under constitutional regulations.

W1-1 Why am I taking this class?

Probably, I expect most of the students taking this class will answer similarly. I am taking this class to enhance my English skills as well as to improve my social knowledge. However, since the name of this class is ‘ Invitation to Sociology ’ and the class is run in English, I am expecting to deal issues that are not only limited nationally, but also international issues, which might be hard to cover in other classes that run in Korean. I also guess that by using English to search information, I would be able to find much more information compared to researching in Korean. Therefore, by taking this class, I expect that I might be able to gain general understanding of the overall sociology and learn skills how to deal with the vast amount of the information to find the main point of the material.

Week 1-1. Introduction to Sociology

1. Summary  Sociology is the study of what activities and thoughts human beings have as members of society. They are also interested in the structure of society and have a welfare system in place From small to big, the areas that society deals with vary. Sociological imagination allows individuals to deviate from self-centered perspectives and view the world as a common entity. This can interest others in their situations and encourage them to directly address the problem. So sociology is the study of understanding social events, collecting, analyzing and studying empirical data.  2.  Interesting   I found the story of sociological imagination interesting. When a social event happened, even people who had no direct connection with it came forward and wondered about the phenomenon of anger and solidarity together, but when I learned about the concept of sociological imagination, my curiosity was solved a little bit. People seem to be able to see irra...

W2-2 Introduction to Sociology/Sociological Methods

A Short Summary of ‘ Introduction to Sociology/Sociological Methods’ This part of the book is about the methods employed in sociology and some standards of the methods and what it tells us. In scientific methods, there are four steps. Characterization, hypothesis, prediction and testing. For the best prediction in scientific methods, we need to know the correct relationship between correlation and causation. It is important not to mistake correlation and causation. Also, quantitative and qualitative methods are two different approaches of sociological research. Depending on how we approach, we can classify objective approach, critical approach and subjective approach. Overall, it is important to obey ethics. Something I learned after reading ‘ Introduction to Sociology/Sociological Methods’ What I found interesting was that even though sociology is in the Liberal Arts, it includes different scientific methods. And by using these methods, we can make predictions and expl...
