Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South Korea is one of outstanding country that has made great success on economic growth. However, they have been faced on matter from unbalanced development. The reason why they have been encountered that problem goes way back to the 1950s. After Korean War in 1950s, South Korean government had started to focus on economic development; as if it could be the best method to escape urgent poverty and overcome social problem. While they ignored the imbalance between economic growth and sustainability, almost every resource was poured out superficial socio-economic development. Moreover, from 1960s to mid-1980s, they were under dictatorship and suffered undemocratic regime. People, who had been repressed under these circumstances, finally rose up against the regime in late 1980s, and then it helped them to become democratic. Nevertheless, inequalities, poverty gap and immature citizenship have remained unsolved. Being encountered with the financial crisis in mid 1990s, almost every social policy was insufficient in treating it. While South Korea has had great success in economic development, its social safety network was not well equipped to respond such a serious problem. This issue was also closely associated with the policy based on the growth-first ideology of government-led development, which was far from inclusive. Consequently, most communities are characterized by serious imbalances, which become major constraints on sustainable development. In these circumstances, the existing conglomerate-centered economic system that puts priority on growth is dimming after being hit by a bomb of low growth. They need of a new system, what is called as 'alternative development strategies.'' While they seek to create new system, 'village community' gets important initiatives about alternative way to promote sustainable development. Especially, because it is based on social economy, which lies in its stable management and continuous growth, thus attracting more attention in a low-growth era, it is regarded as method of promoting the rights and benefits of its members. Nowadays, 'village community' rapidly spreads over the whole country. This study explores case study of village community in Seoul in order to investigate the true meaning of urban community for sustainable development. In this context, the present paper has three objectives. First, features of 'village community' is analyzed, especially focus on socio-economic situation surrounding it. Second, it compares 'village community' with the social development, which seeks to harmonize social and economic processes for vulnerable populations. Finally, using case studies, I try to illustrate how 'village community' is initiated social change at local and community level and generated community development for better social services.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book showcases how innovative state policy in Korea transformed Seoul from one of the world’s most impoverished, polluted, and congested cities into a global leader in green urban planning, smart city innovations, and social economy initiatives that have dramatically improved the local quality of life. Today, Seoul’s urban planning innovations are increasingly touted as replicable best practices for export to cities across the globe. This book describes how innovative state policy has made Seoul a world leader in sustainable, smart, and solidary urban initiatives. Beginning in the 1960s, Seoul led the fastest urbanization and modernization project in world history, becoming a colossal 26-million-person metropolitan region and one of the largest footprints of humanity on earth, transforming the nation from one of the world’s poorest to having the 10th largest GDP in 2020. Today, Seoul has become one of the most productive and innovative urban agglomerations on earth. Seoul’s residents enjoy the world’s highest penetration of high-speed internet, a model mass transit system, and advanced smart-city technologies. The vast city has become increasingly green and sustainable, while also recycling about 90% of all waste. Seoul has become a leader in social economy innovations like cooperative villages, mutual benefit societies, and social investment funds that advance equitable development goals amid a booming capitalist economy. To broaden our imagination of what good urbanism can achieve, this book reviews Seoul’s recent innovations in smart, sustainable, and solidary urbanism, including: green urban planning, sustainable development through recycling and reuse, well-managed mass transit, smart city design, and solidarity economy initiatives.

Book excerpt: During recent decades, Korea has been one of only a handful of countries that have made the successful transformation to become a developed nation by simultaneously achieving persistent economic growth combined with a democratic political system. Experts and political leaders worldwide have attributed this achievement to investments in people or, in other words, the power of education. Whilst numerous books have highlighted the role of industrial policies, technological growth, and international trade in Korea’s development process, this is one of the first to focus on the role of human capital. It shows how the accumulation of human capital aided transformation and helps explain the policies, strategies and challenges that Korea faces now and in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all aim that our countries develop sustainably and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set by the United Nations cover social, economic and environmental development issues, which is virtually every aspect of our lives. Environmental development is both affected by and affects social and economic developments and is critical to achieving sustainable development. South Korea is often cited as one of the best practice cases of environmental development, especially on forest restoration and rehabilitation, having gone through a quantum shift over the last half century. After the Korean War, the land has been devastated and the people had to start from scratch to rebuild the shattered post-war environment. This study introduces the environmental development of South Korea in which the development paradigm can be identified within 50 years after the Korea War despite some limitations. This study aims to analyse the Korean development with relevant indicators in a narrative structure. As a result, the environmental development of South Korea can be considered as a model. To translate the theory into practice, some of the Mid-Latitude countries are sorted out to estimate the phase of environmental development in the perspective of Korean case. The results show the comparison among the countries based on the model and indicate Mid-Latitude countries has room for sustainable development for a better future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To meet the rising demand for scientific evidence in the context of rural tourism research, this book explores tourism and tourism-related diversification activities performed by farming households and entrepreneurs in rural communities. To do so it adopts a consistent conceptual and empirical microeconomic approach and employs econometric methodology. Community-based rural tourism (CBRT) is attracting increasing interest in both developed and developing countries, since tourism is considered an effective way to promote rural development in all parts of the globe. Further, because information and communication technologies are developing rapidly, new types of communities are now formed more easily than ever. As such, this book covers not only traditional, closed agrarian communities, but also emerging communities formed by local nonprofit organizations (NPOs) and national networks of farmers who provide educational tourism for consumers. These emerging communities are beyond the range of traditional agrarian communities and complement each other, which helps overcome obstacles to rural tourism for farm operators and urban residents. Those communities also nurture the rural entrepreneurship that eventually will create a sustainable urban–rural relationship. This study—the first of its kind—contributes to the advancement of research on rural tourism from a microeconomic perspective. It presents a conceptual framework for understanding rural tourism from a microeconomic perspective; empirically clarifies the specific issues and constraints for the development of CBRT; and also investigates how to overcome these issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UN Sustainable Development Goals are an ambitious agenda for environmental sustainability, economic development, and social transformation. The SDGs include targets for governments, in partnership with private industry and communities, to improve access to affordable and reliable energy, reduce inequality, protect natural resources, and invest in transparent legal institutions and resilient infrastructure. Although transitioning energy systems towards a low-carbon future is a core aspect of the SDGs, the International Energy Agency anticipates that oil and gas will remain a significant component of the global energy mix for some time. Host Government Instruments are tools which governments use to grant oil and gas companies permission to develop state-owned resources. In addition to bringing substantial resources into governments, these HGIs often also include environmental commitments as well as commitments to local hiring, stakeholder engagement, and investment in economic development programmes. The different structures of HGIs and their precise terms and conditions are crucial determinants of the sustainability of oil and gas operations conducted thereunder. This book addresses how governments can use HGIs to advance the SDGs. Part I introduces the SDGs and the legal institutions and governance related to HGIs, including in relation to international energy development, international environmental treaties, the Paris Agreement, and human rights regimes. Part II examines specific provisions within HGIs and regulatory systems which relate to the oil and gas sector and SDGs. It provides case studies to illustrate approaches to HGIs and to identify opportunities for host governments and international oil and gas companies to advance the SDGs. The book concludes with a summary of recommendations regarding how host governments, in partnership with the oil and gas industry, can use HGIs to advance economic development and sustainability goals, and advances potential insights towards development of new and renewable resources.

Book excerpt: Managing Organizations for Sustainable Development in Emerging Countries focuses on the main challenges and opportunities of managing firms and emerging economies in the light of sustainable development. One of the key questions of sustainable development is how organizations from developing countries are achieving their economic goals while considering, simultaneously, environmental issues like conservation of natural resources, eco-efficiency, biodiversity conservation, and climate-change mitigation. These questions are relevant for government, industry, and urban sustainability. However, in the modern literature that discusses organizational management for sustainable development, few studies focus on the reality of organizations from emerging countries. Moreover, changing environmental legislation in emerging countries (such as China and Brazil) will affect organizational managers. In this context, this book may contribute to organizational management in the search for more sustainable organizations, as well as deal with the challenges of managing organizations in the context of increased social problems, degradation of natural resources, loss of biodiversity, and climate change. This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of Sustainable Development & World Ecology.
