Despite both regional and international attempts at harmonisation and unification of private international law, new national codifications are still being adopted. The article draws attention to some selected issues of the new Czech Private International Law Act that reflect modern trends in private international law, providing a comparative analysis of the respective rules in the codification of South Korea. Both countries, the Czech Republic and the Republic of Korea have modern private international law codifications: the current Korean Act on Private International Law was adopted and became effective in 2001, replacing its predecessor which had been adopted in 1962 and was considered outdated. The Czech Republic adopted its new Act on Private International Law in 2012, effective as of 2014.

The North Korean Special Purpose Forces an Assessment of the Threat

March 1995

Michael Durtschi

The purpose of this thesis is to assess the threat that the North Korean Special Forces pose, and to explore how this threat might be deterred or countered. This thesis will answer three questions. First, in the event of a second Korean War, what will the special forces campaign look like? Second, how could one deter North Korea's use of this capability and, if that fails, can the threat be ... [Show full abstract] countered? Finally, what conclusions can be drawn from the North Korean case about the future use of special operations forces in general. This study provides an empirical assessment of the capabilities of the North Korean Special Purpose Forces and the threat they pose to the interests of both South Korea and the United States. It develops two possible campaign models, based on two prominent schools of thought on the use of special operations forces (SOF), autonomous use, or integration with general purpose forces. This thesis then compares the capabilities of the North Korean Special Purpose Forces to the alternate campaign models to predict their possible uses in the event of a second Korean War. Finally, the study addresses how the Republic of Korea and the United States may deter or counter the threat these forces pose. It also discusses what conclusions may be drawn from this study about the future use of special operations forces in general. (KAR) P. 2

Complete nucleotide sequence of a highly divergent cherry-associated luteovirus (ChALV) isolate from...

September 2017 · Archives of Virology

We determined the complete genome sequence of a highly divergent South Korean (SK) isolate of a cherry-associated luteovirus (ChALV) from peach. The ChALV-SK genome consists of 5,815 nucleotides, and contains five open reading frames (ORFs). A comparative analysis of the full genome showed only 73.1% nucleotide sequence identity with a recently described ChALV from the Czech Republic (CZ). Amino ... [Show full abstract] acid similarities of the individual ORFs between ChALV-SK and other luteoviruses range from 17.3 to 92%, which places the new isolate close to the species demarcation value for luteoviruses. Results show our ChALV-SK isolate to be highly diverged from the ChALV-CZ isolate.

Peasant unrest over land rights and high rents was common, and many regimes met their downfall because of this problem. The land tenure system was reformed many times, but remained a feudal system. Following World War II, the ... [Show full abstract] country was split into North and South, with both countries enacting major land reform and outlawing tenancy on agricultural lands. While the economy in the communist North has stagnated, South Korea has developed a modern, market economy. South Korea's rapid growth has created new land problems and the need for modern, computerized systems of land information.
