The University is to be established as an independent institution, with an appropriate status under the law of Korea. It will require such arrangements, incentives privileges and immunities as will facilitate the recruitment of international staff and the participation of faculty and students from all over the world. The University must be fully autonomous to ensure its intellectual and academic integrity and freedom from ideological constraints. The relationship with United Nations can be achieved without making the University an actual UN organization, through cooperation with UN agencies and organizations and participation of UN personnel in its faculty and programs. The core program centered at the University itself would be developed initially on the basis of the comparative advantage offered by its location in Jeju and the quality of faculty, full and part time, that could be recruited to the University. To reflect the complexity and range of issues in the field of sustainable development, it is planned that the academic program of the University should be organized from two mutually reinforcing perspectives, core competences underlying the whole program and specific areas of concentration.
As the low birth rate and aging phenomenon intensify, many local governments are facing a difficult situation of not only reducing population but also for securing financial resources. The national average fiscal independence is not increasing, and the fiscal gap between local governments has not been resolved. Accordingly, the Hometown Love Donation System, which provides tax incentives for donations to local governments, was included in the current government's 100 major national tasks and roadmap for autonomous decentralization. The hometown tax system was introduced in Japan in 2008 and has been contributing to securing financial resources of local governments, and has been contributing to regional development in recent years by using local specialties as return products, but concerns about overheating of competition are also growing. In Korea, the National Assembly and local governments have continuously reviewed the introduction of the hometown tax system. In addition, it is proposed to organize and operate a research conference about the suitabity of the environment of Jeju in order to minimize trial and error in the introduction and implementation of the system based on the case of Japan's hometown tax, taking into account domestic and Jeju special selfgoverning conditions. In the future, further research is needed in policy making and related systems for the donation deduction system.
In South Korea, social healing through justice of Cheju2 massacres(1947-1954) has progressed considerably since 2000. However, after the March 1, 1947, the US military and US federal governments are still silent about the Cheju massacres and are ignoring the fact-finding demands raised in South Korea. I think that the US Army Military Government in Korea, which occupied and ruled South Korea at the time, branded Cheju Islanders as communists and played a great role in the indiscriminate slaughtering without legitimate legal procedures without distinguishing civilians from guerrillas. The United States committed Commie-cide on Cheju-Do.
Jeju has become an important hub for tourism and English education in Northeast Asia and the importance of English in Jeju cannot be overemphasized. This paper compares the psychological and cognitive approaches of SLA motivation and sociological approaches of investment. Language learning involves the complex identities of language learners. Poststructuralists are interested in how language learners’ positions might influence their investments and how their investments affect their identity formation. However, researchers in Jeju have not given enough attention to the identity changes and investment transformation during students’ English learning processes. Therefore, it is important to investigate English learners’ investment and identity formations in the various sociocultural contexts in Jeju.
