scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vegetarian'/><title type='text'>Kinds of Vegetarian</title><content type='html'>0. 프리건 (Freegan)&lt;br /&gt;프리거니즘 Freeganism. 음식물 쓰레기 등에서 채소를 얻어 섭취한다고 하는군요.채식주의자라는 뜻의 Vegan과 무료, 자유라는 뜻의 Free가결합되어 "무료로 얻은 음식만 먹는 채식주의"라는 뜻이며,'반 소비주의 라이프스타일'에 속한다고 합니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. 과식주의자 (프루테리언 Fruitarian)&lt;br /&gt;가장 엄격하고 극단적인 채식주의입니다.동물뿐만 아니라 식물의 생명까지 존중하여,생명의 원천인 뿌리나 잎의 섭취를 피하고오직 견과류나 과일같은 열매 부분만 먹습니다.일반적인 경우 섭취량의 75%이상이 과일이라고 하네요.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. 스프라우테리언 (Sproutarian)&lt;br /&gt;이쪽은 바로 위에 적힌 '과식주의'와는 정반대로오직 씨앗류와 새싹만을 먹는다고 합니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. 생식 완전 채식주의자 (로우 비건 Raw-vegan)&lt;br /&gt;완전채식주의를 지키면서 동시에 생식을 합니다.생식이란 음식을 익히지 않고 생으로 먹는 거에요.가열해서 요리하지 않고자연상태로 먹거나 말려서 먹는다고 합니다.완전채식주의에 대해서는 바로 밑에 적혀있어요.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. 완전 채식주의자 (비건 Vegan)&lt;br /&gt;모든 동물성 식품을 절대 먹지 않습니다.고기는 물론, 생선, 유제품, 달걀, 심지어 꿀도 피합니다.더 나아가 가죽으로 만들어진 물건의 사용을 피하거나동물 실험을 통해 생산된 물건의 이용을 피하거나애완동물에게 채식 사료를 주기도 합니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. 우유 채식주의자 (락토 베지테리언 Lactovegetarian)&lt;br /&gt;완전 채식 상태에서 유제품이 추가되었다고 보면 됩니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. 난류 채식주의자 (오보 베지테리언 Ovovegetarian)&lt;br /&gt;완전 채식 상태에서 난류(달걀 등)이 추가된 상태입니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. 유란 채식주의자 (락토 오보 베지테리언 Lacto-ovo-vegetarian)&lt;br /&gt;완전 채식 상태에서 유제품과 난류가 더해진 것입니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. 생선 채식주의자(페스코 베지테리언 Pescovegetarian)&lt;br /&gt;유란 채식 상태에서 생선이 추가된 것입니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. 닭고기(?) 채식주의자 (폴로 베지테리언 Pollo-vegetarian)&lt;br /&gt;생선 채식에 더해서 닭고기까지도 먹습니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. 준 채식주의자 (세미 베지테리언 Semi-vegetarian)&lt;br /&gt;채식을 하기로 결심하고동물성을 조금씩 멀리하기 시작하는 상태의 채식주의자.생선에 닭고기, 심지어 고기까지 모두 먹기는 하지만할 수 있는 한 적당히 피해가면서 서서히 그 양을 줄여갑니다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

수시모집 합격자 가운데 강남지역 출신이나 특목고 출신이 많다는 이유로 대학이 비판의 표적이 된 것은 어제오늘 일이 아니다. 그런데도 정부는 대학의 자율화를 추진한다고 한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;고교평준화가 시작된 지 34년이 지났어도 학교별 학력 격차는 오히려 커졌고, 이른바 명문대학에 여러 해 동안 한 명의 학생도 입학시키지 못한 학교가 더 많이 존재한다. 그러면서 지난 한 해 지출된 사교육비는 20조원을 넘어섰지만 자녀교육을 위한 기러기 아빠는 늘어나고, 대학의 국제 경쟁력은 아주 낮은 것으로 평가되고 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;보통시민 교육이나 교육기회 평등만큼 수월성을 중시하는 교육 또한 소중하다. 누가 보아도 한국 교육체계는 교육평등과 수월성 교육 양쪽에서 모두 낙제점이다. 허구적인 논리로 현 체계를 끌고 가기보다는 세계를 보고, 학생들과 학부모들이 원하는 것을 확실히 파악하고 국가경쟁력을 높이기 위해 필요한 인재상을 설정한 후 교육체계에 대한 근본 변화를 추구할 때다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;병의 원인을 제대로 알아야 바른 치료를 할 수 있듯이 먼저 우리 교육체계의 병리현상부터 짚어 보자.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;우리나라에서는 공교육과 사교육의 정의부터 선진국과 차이를 보인다. 다른 나라에서는 공교육은 공립학교 교육을, 사교육은 사립학교 교육을 뜻하나 우리나라에서는 학원이나 과외 등 학교 밖 교육을 포괄하고 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;경제학적으로 보면 학교 제도권 밖의 지하교육이라고 보는 것이 적합하다. 이처럼 공립학교 교육과 사립학교 교육이 뒤섞여 있는 까닭은 평준화 정책에서 비롯된다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;평준화 교육 시스템에서 중학교나 고등학교 진학은 선택이 아니라 배정 방식에 따르고 있다. 같은 학교, 같은 반에서 미적분을 이해하는 학생과 구구단을 소화하지 못한 학생이 함께 섞여 수업을 받고 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;학력 수준이 크게 차이가 나는 이질적 학습 집단을 대상으로 하는 학교교육은 학생들의 차별화된 욕구를 제대로 충족시킬 수 없다. 학교교육이 자신에게 도움이 안 된다고 판단한 학생들은 심화학습 또는 학력 보충을 위해 학원이나 과외 교습과 같은 제도권 밖의 '비학교 교육', 심하게 표현하면 '지하 교육'에 의존하고 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;평준화를 통해 과거 명문교를 없앴다고 하지만, 특정지역에 위치한 학교나 외국어고 또는 과학고와 같은 특목고와 자사고가 새로운 명문학교로 자리 잡았다. 새로운 명문고로 진학하기 위한 사교육은 더 기승을 부린다. 평준화에서 비롯된 우리 교육체계의 근본 병리를 애써 외면하고 학교교육 내실화, 사교육 수요의 공교육 체제 내 흡수, 우리 사회의 고질적 학벌주의 사회 풍토 개선과 같은 대책은 그 효과를 기대하기 어렵다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;또한 학교교육의 투명성을 높이고 공익성을 높인다는 것이 그동안 추진해 온 교육정책의 또 하나의 방향이었다. 그러나 평준화를 통해 사립학교에도 인건비 지원 등 필요 재정을 전적으로 국가가 지원했고 학생까지 배정해 주는 상황에서 경쟁력이 없는 학교까지 생존할 수 있었다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;과거에 비해 학령인구가 크게 줄어든 상황에서도 학교 간 경쟁이 없는 여건에서 부실학교의 퇴출과 같은 새로운 구조개혁은 불가능했던 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;국가 발전을 위한 최고의 성장 동력으로는 무엇보다도 먼저 인재를 꼽을 수 있다. 특히 부존자원이 부족한 우리나라에서 국가의 총체적 발전은 아이디어와 상상력이 넘치는 창조적 인재 확보와 직결되어 있다. 개개인의 학습 격차가 심한 상태에서 획일적인 평준화 교육은 어느 누구도 만족시키지 못해 교실 붕괴로 이어져 왔다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;또 기대와 달리 학교 간 학력의 격차도 오히려 벌어진 것이 현실이다. 이제 더 이상 교육체계의 구조개혁을 미룰 수 없다. 교육기회 균등과 교육 경쟁력 강화 모두 나름대로 소중한 교육 가치를 지니고 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;그러나 기회균등은 차별화된 배려를 통해 이루어져야지 획일적 평준화로 모든 것을 잃어서는 안 된다. 평등의 주술에서 벗어나는 것이 한국교육을 살리는 첫걸음이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[김한중

학교가 서울에 있는 상위권 학교도 아니고 스펙이 부족한 상태였다. 그래서 일단 인턴을 노렸고, 서울에 있는 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="cursor: pointer; color: rgb(11, 6, 168);font-size:78%;" &gt;CJ&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;

터득해야 한다고 입을 모은다. 내용물이 같더라도 포장을 잘해야 선택될 수 있다는 논리다. 취업 포털 대표들이 밝힌 불황기의 취업 전략을 소개한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;－올 하반기 취업 트렌드를 분석하면.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶김화수 잡코리아 대표＝기업들이 영어면접을 강화하고 있다는 점이다. 글로벌 경쟁력 강화를

커리어 대표＝영어 말하기능력 평가기준 강화라고 할 수 있다. 또 학벌이나 학점, 외국어 점수보다는 희망 직무에 적합한 인재인지를 평가하기 위해 직군별로 면접 방식을 다르게 적용하기도 한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶이광석 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="cursor: pointer; color: rgb(11, 6,

/&gt;－내년 채용 전망을 어떻게 보나.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶ 김기태 대표＝경기불안이 연말까지 해소되지 않는다면 내년 채용시장은 매우 어두울 것으로 전망된다. 주요 대기업들이 올해 하반기 예정보다 10% 정도 많은 규모로 공채를 진행한 상황이라 내년에는 채용규모를 줄일 확률이 높다. 여기에다 현재 채용 상황이 좋지 않은 중견ㆍ중소기업은 채용 문을 더욱 굳게 닫을 것으로 보인다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;－면접시험 대처 요령은.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶이광석 대표＝틀에 박힌 면접 모범답안을 외우기보다는 자신만의 강점을 노출하기 위한 노력이 중요하다. 면접에도 패턴이 있는 만큼 최근 많이 실시하고 있는 면접 유형을 제대로 파악해둬야 한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶김화수 대표＝면접시 첫인상이 가장 중요하다. 첫인상이 좋으면 답변에 작은 실수가 있어도 '재미있는 사람' 정도로 넘어가지만 그렇지 않으면 훌륭한 답변을 해도 '잘난 척하는구나'로 평가받기가 쉽다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶김기태 대표＝조직에 융화될 수 있는가를 평가하기 위해 개인 면접보다는 팀별로 발표를 하게 하는 토론 면접이나 프레젠테이션 면접이 선호되는 추세다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;－면접 질문에 좋은 답변과 나쁜 답변 사례를 들어달라.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶ 김화수 대표＝'기업의 사회적 책임'에 대한 질문이라면 좋은 답변은 '개인은 기업을 통해 생계를 유지하고 자신과 가족 구성원들의 장래를 의탁하며, 기업을 통해 사회인으로 발전하고 배웁니다. 귀사는 이러한 기업의 사회적 책임을 수행하는 데 선도적인 구실을 하고 있다고 생각합니다', 나쁜 답변은 '국민에게 피해를 주어선 안 됩니다. 제품을 속여서 판다든지, 비리를 저지른다든지, 국민들이 기업을 믿고 있는 만큼 그에 맞게 처신해야 한다고 생각합니다'이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶김기태 대표＝'애인이 친한 친구와 바람을 피우면 누굴 택하겠습니까'라는 질문에 좋은 답변은 '둘 다 포기하겠습니다. 바람을 피운 애인이라면 더 이상 만날 필요가 없다고 생각합니다. 친구 역시 믿음을 저버렸기에 우정을 계속 유지하기 힘듭니다. 서로 믿음이 있어야 그 회사의 미래가 밝을 것입니다', 나쁜 답변은 '눈에는 눈, 이에는 이로 맞불작전에 나서겠습니다'이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;－외국어 실력은 어느 정도 돼야 하나.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶ 김화수 대표＝기본적으로 본인 의사를 표현할 수 있는 능력은 갖춰야 한다. 고급스러운 표현을 요하는 것은 아니지만 문법에 맞는 정확한 문장을 말할 수 있어야 한다. 모든 인사담당자들이 영어를 잘하는 것은 아니기 때문에 면접자들의 자신감 있는 태도가 중요하다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶김기태 대표＝영어면접시 너무 복잡하고 수준 높은 문장력을 구사하는 것보다는 간결하면서도 명확하게 표현하는 것이 중요하다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;－취업을 위한 원포인트 노하우 1개씩만 알려 달라.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶ 김화수 대표＝발로 뛰라는 것이다. 대다수 구직자들은 땀 흘리지 않고 쉽게 취업하려고 한다. 하나의 입사지원서를 여러 기업에 제출하는 것도 이 때문이다. 기업 면접관들을 어떻게 하면 감동시킬 수 있을까 고심해야 한다. 해당 기업에 애정을 갖고 지원한다면 면접관들은 감동하게 될 것이고 그 감동은 취업으로 돌아온다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;▶김기태 대표＝&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="cursor: pointer; color: rgb(11, 6, 168);font-size:78%;" &gt;오리온&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; 인사담당자는 자사 제품을 분석한 뒤 본인의 모습을 투영한 제품보고서가 가장 기억에 남는다고 했다. 그 지원자는 "저는 초코파이처럼 정이 많으며, 고소미처럼 고소한 면도 갖고 있다"고 자신을 표현했다. 입사희망 기업에 대한 지원자 열의는 인사담당자를 감동시킨다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[김병호

id="lblContent"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;p&gt;‘쌀 소득 등 보전 직접지불금’(이하 ’쌀 소득 직불금‘으로 표기)이 이번 국정감사의 최대 수확물(?)이라고 여겨도 좋을 것이다. 쌀 소득 직불금 때문에 한 명의 고위 공직자가 이미 사표를 냈고 국회가 쌀 소득 직불금 국정조사에 합의했기 때문이다. 그러나 대부분의 국민이나 정치권 등은 그것의 실체와 관련된 문제점들을 정확히 알지 못하거나 외면한 채, 경자유전, 경작자가 아닌 공무원의 직불금 수령 등에 대한 문제에만 시간과 정력을 낭비하고 있다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#003366;"&gt;쌀 소득 보전 직불금 제도란&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;쌀 소득 직불금은 지난 2005년 7월 1일부터 ‘쌀 소득 등의 보전에 관한 법률’에 의해 발효된 제도다. 쌀 소득 직불금은 농산물 시장 개방 확대로 쌀 등의 가격이 하락할 것이 예상됨에 따라 기존의 추곡수매제도를 대체한 것이다. 다시 말하면, 쌀 소득 직불금 지급은 농민에 대한 지원이 추곡가라는 ‘가격’에 의한 지원 방식에서 정부 예산으로 ‘직접 보조금’을 주는 방식으로 바뀐 것을 의미한다. 그리고 추곡수매제도는 공공비축제로 전환되었다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;쌀 소득 등의 보전에 관한 법률에 의하면 쌀 소득 직불금은 ‘고정직접지불금’과 ‘변동직접지불금’으로 구성된다. 고정직접지불금은 문자 그대로 고정 금액이다. 변동직접지불금은 정부가 정한 ‘목표가’에서 쌀 수확기 ‘평균가격’을 뺀 차액에 85/100를 곱하여 구한 금액에서 고정직접지불금을 뺀 것이다. 2005년의 경우에 고정직접지불금이 1핵타르(ha)당 70만원이고 그 금액을 법이 정한 1ha당 쌀 생산량인 61가마(1가마는 80kg)로 나누면 가마당 고정직접지불금은 약 11,479원이 된다. 이 금액을 변동직접지불금 구하는 공식에 넣어보면 목표가와 평균가격의 차액은 1가마당 약 13,500원이 된다. 이 수치가 의미하는 바는 2005년의 경우에 목표가와 평균가격의 차이가 1가마당 13,500원이 넘으면 그 액수의 85%를 농민이 보조금으로 지불받고 13,500원 이하이면 고정직접지불금만 보조금으로 받는다는 것이다. 한 마디로, 목표가를 높게 책정하거나 목표가격에 비하여 시장가격이 상당히 낮아지면 고정직접지불금은 의미가 없어진다는 것이다.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" width="85%"&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;strong&gt;쌀 소득 직불금은 농산물 시장 개방 확대로 쌀 등의 가격이 하락할 것이 예상됨에 따라 기존의 추곡수매제도를 대체한 것이다. 다시 말하면, 쌀 소득 직불금 지급은 농민에 대한 지원이 추곡가라는 ‘가격’에 의한 지원 방식에서 정부 예산으로 ‘직접 보조금’을 주는 방식으로 바뀐 것을 의미한다. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt; &lt;p&gt;이렇게 두 가지 직접지불금으로 나눈 것은 시장 평균가격이 목표가에 근접하는 경우에는 농민이 시장에서 쌀을 판매하면 목표가 수준의 소득을 얻을 것이기 때문에 일정한 액수의 고정직접지불금만을 받도록 하고, 풍년, 시장 개방 등으로 평균가격이 크게 하락하여 목표가보다 매우 낮은 경우에는 목표가에 근접하는 소득을 얻도록 하기 위함이다.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color:#003366;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;쌀 소득 직불금, 빈농 보다는 부농에게 보조금 주는 것&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;이렇게 하여 쌀 소득 직불금으로 그 동안 쓰인 예산은 얼마일까? 농식품부는 쌀 소득 직불금으로 2006년 16,082억원, 2007년 16,672억원, 2008년 12,446억원을 지급했다. 이 금액들은 각 년도 농식품부 전체 예산의 약 19.5%, 19.1%, 14.3% 등으로 매우 큰 비중을 차지한다. 물론 농식품부는 다른 직접지불금도 농민에게 지원하고 있지만 쌀 소득 직불금보다는 그 규모가 작은 것이 현실이다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;그러면 각 농가는 얼마나 쌀 소득 직불금을 받을 수 있는가? 쌀 소득 직불금은 농식품부장관이 앞에서 제시한 방법대로 산정한 80kg당 변동직접지불금에 61가마를 곱하고 그것에 다시 등록된 벼 재배 면적(ha기준)을 곱하여 구한다. 이러한 계산 방식은 쌀 소득 직불금이 벼 재배 면적에 비례하여 증대된다는 것을 의미하는 것으로 쌀 소득 직불금의 결정적인 문제점이라고 하겠다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;보도에 의하면 2005~2006년 44개 농가(법인 11개, 개인 33명)가 각각 5,000만원 이상을 받았고, 이 중 8개 농가(법인 6개, 개인 2명)가 각각 1억원 이상을 수령했다고 한다. 이와 연관하여 더 큰 문제는 법률(제6조)이 논농업에 이용하는 농지면적이 1천제곱미터(약 300평) 이하인 농민을 아예 쌀 소득 직불금 대상에서 제외했다는 점이다. 쌀 소득 직불금도 소득 보조금의 일종인 만큼 저소득자에게만 보조금 혜택이 돌아가도록 하는 것이 옳을 것이다. 그러나 현행 제도는 일반적인 소득 지원 방식과는 완전히 정반대로 가고 있는 것이 분명하다. 다시 말하면, 현행 제도는 ‘빈익빈 부익부’를 초래하는 제도인 것이다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img style="" src="http://cfe.org/editimg_data/20081030112034.gif" border="0" width="481" height="307" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;쌀 소득 직불금 제도의 두 번째 문제점은 경작자가 아닌 지주에게 쌀 소득 직불금이 지급되었다는 것이다. 감사원의 감사결과를 보도한 자료에 의하면 2006년 쌀 소득 직불금을 받은 998,000명을 대상으로 조사한 결과 약 28만명이 농사를 짓지 않고 쌀 소득 직불금만 챙겼다고 한다. 지주가 쌀 소득 직불금을 수령한 것은 법률을 어긴 것임은 분명하다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;그러나 지주의 쌀 소득 직불금 수령이 분배에는 어떤 영향을 미칠까? 경작자에게 쌀 소득 직불금을 지불하면 토지 임대에 대한 수요가 증가하여 토지 임대료를 끌어올릴 것이고 그것은 쌀 소득 직불금의 일부가 지주에게 분배된다는 것을 의미한다. 그와 반대로 지주에게 쌀 소득 직불금을 지불하면 임대 토지 공급의 증가를 통하여 토지 임대료를 하락하게 만들 것이고 그것은 쌀 소득 직불금의 일부가 경작자에게 분배된다는 것을 의미한다. 비록 현실은 거래비용의 존재가 분배의 양상을 조금 다르게 만들 것이지만 앞의 분석은 ‘경자유전’이 사실상 큰 의미가 없음을 의미한다. 적어도 쌀 소득 직불금의 분배에 관한 한에서는 말이다. 한 마디로, 지주가 쌀 소득 직불금을 수령한 것이 가진 법적 의미와 경제적 의미가 다르다는 것이다. 앞에서 지적한 점 이외에도 경자유전은 농촌으로 자본이 유입되는 것을 막는 제도로 국내 산업에 외국인 투자를 금지하는 제도와 본질에서 차이가 없다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;지주의 쌀 소득 직불금 수령이 지닌 추가적인 문제점은 여기에도 소득 보조금을 받지 말아야 할 계층인 지주가 직불금을 수령했다는 사실이다. 지주의 소득이나 재산의 분포 상태를 정확히 알 수 없지만 분명한 것은 지주는 소득 보조의 대상이 아니라는 점이다. 이 점은 시장이 경작자와 지주 간에 쌀 소득 직불금을 어떻게 분배하는가와 상관이 없다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" width="85%"&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;strong&gt;쌀 소득 직불금 제도는 결코 바람직한 제도가 아니기 때문에 폐지하는 것이 바람직하다. 무엇보다도 가난한 농민의 소득을 보조하기보다는 부자 농민이나 농업과 관련이 없는 지주나 부자 지주의 소득을 보조하기 때문이다. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt; &lt;p&gt;쌀 소득 직불금 제도의 세 번째 문제점은 감시․감독과 관련하여 탈법이 이루어진다는 것이다. 예를 들어, 지주와 경작자(소작인)가 이중으로 쌀 소득 직불금을 받은 경우가 작지 않다는 것이다. 그런 경우는 2005년 3,200건, 2006년 1970건 등이고 지급된 직불금은 총 12억여 원이다. 농지 소재지가 아닌 주소지에서 쌀 소득 직불금을 신청하는 허점을 이용한 것이다. 그러나 이런 수치는 적발된 경우만을 포함하고 있기 때문에 쌀 소득 직불금 이중 수령의 현실을 정확히 반영하고 있는 것처럼 보이지 않는다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;다른 탈법 사례도 있다. ‘쌀소득 등의 보전에 관한 법률 시행 규칙’ 제3조 1항은 쌀 소득 직불금 지급 대상 농지를 1998~2000년 논농업에 이용된 농지로 제한하고 있다. 쌀 시장 개방의 직접적인 영향을 받았던 시기에 농지로 이용되었던 농지만을 보조금 지급 대상으로 하고 있는 것이다. 그러나 2006년에만 농지 41,600ha를 새로 취득한 115,000명이 468여억 원의 쌀 소득 직불금을 받았다고 한다. 이것은 쌀 시장 개방에 영향을 받았던 농민 또는 경작인에게만 쌀 소득 직불금을 지불해야 한다는 제한 규정을 두어야 할 것을 농지를 대상으로 제한 규정을 두게 된데서 발생한 문제라고 하겠다.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;마지막으로, 쌀 소득 직불금과 같은 보조금은 쌀 경작으로 불필요하게 많은 자원을 유입하게 만들고 다른 농작물 또는 산업에서는 자원을 모자라게 한다. 그 결과 쌀은 불필요하게 많이 생산되고 다른 농작물 또는 산업에서는 수요에 비하여 공급이 모자라게 된다. 물론 그런 과잉과 부족 현상은 보조금이 없을 때보다 가격을 하락과 상승으로 유도한다. 이런 현상은 보이지 않지만 엄연히 존재하는 것이다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#003366;"&gt;쌀 소득 직불금 폐지하고, 가난한 사람을 지원하는 제도로 통합해야&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;미국은 1996년 농업법에서 폐지한 목표가격제를 2002년 농업법에서 부활시켰다. 쌀 가격의 지속적인 하락에 대응하여 경기대응 방식의 소득보조를 도입한 것이다. 현재의 쌀 소득 직불금 제도는 미국의 그러한 목표가격제에 기초를 두고 있다. 그러나 미국이 만든 제도가 언제나 좋은 것이 아님은 재론의 여지가 없다. 다른 나라 제도를 도입할 때는 면밀한 검토가 필요한 이유이다. 쌀 소득 직불금 제도는 그런 것 중의 하나임이 확실하다.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;쌀 소득 직불금 제도는 결코 바람직한 제도가 아니기 때문에 폐지하는 것이 바람직하다. 무엇보다도 가난한 농민의 소득을 보조하기보다는 부자 농민이나 농업과 관련이 없는 지주나 부자 지주의 소득을 보조하기 때문이다. 가난한 사람-그가 농민의 여부와 상관없이-을 지원하는 제도로는 국민기초생활을 보호하기 위한 것인 ‘최저생계비’제도가 있다. 만약에 가난한 사람을 꼭 지원해야 할 필요가 있다면 말이다. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“농민은 모두 가난하다”, “농업은 전혀 경쟁력이 없다” 등과 같은 생각이나 견해를 가진 사람은 현실을 너무 모르거나 마음이 너무 뜨거운 나머지 현실을 보지 못하는 것임에 틀림없다.■&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;전용덕 / 대구대 무역학과

북한의 각종 언론매체와 대남단체들이 정부의 대북정책인 “비핵, 개방, 3000” 과 이대통령에 대해 입에 담기조차 섬뜩한 파쑈정권, 역도, 패당, 반통일책동 등의 비난으로 한반도의 평화와 번영, 그리고 평화통일을 여는데 역행하고 있어 안타까운 마음 금할 수 없다. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;      &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;또한 국내 일부 대학생 연합회가 현 정부의 통일정책을 비난하는 글을 게시판에 실어 사회적 논란이 되고 있다. 대학생들의 시국관, 안보관, 정세관이라고는 도저히 믿기 어렵다. 이들은 대북정책을 원천적으로 부정하고, 김정일 독재정권과 공산사회주의체제를 옹호하고 있다는데 문제의 심각성이 크다.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;과연 이들의 주장처럼 어느(남과북) 정권이 반(反)통일을 책동을 하는지? 되묻지 않을 수 없다.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;이 러한 일부 시민단체와 학생들의 편향된 이념이나 왜곡된 역사인식, 통일관, 안보관, 대북관을 가지고 있다는 것이 얼마나 위험한 것인지를 새삼 느끼게 한다. 이들의 통일에 대한 막연한 환상과 기대는 남북발전에 아무런 도움도 되지 않으리라고 본다. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;우리 모두는 북한이 지금과 같이 군사력을 앞세운 대남 강경자세를 버리지 않고서는 북한이 주장하는 민족공조, 민족통일은 사탕발림에 불과한 것이라는 사실을 정확히 인식해야 할 것으로 본다. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;북한이 핵 불능화 약속이행으로 테러지원국이라는 족쇄에서 벗어났듯이, 대화와 실천으로 불신을 털어버리고, 신뢰를 회복하는 것만이 남북의 평화통일과 공동번영을 성취하는 길이라는 것을 분명히 깨달았으면 하는

하고 피지 제거, 각질 제거 팩을 한다. 그러나 너무 잦은 팩은 피지막을 손상시켜 피지 분비를 더욱 촉진시킬 수 있으니 주의!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;할 것 - &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span

때문에 여성보다 피부가 더 번들거릴 수 있다. 스트레스 등으로 인해 지루성 피부염이 더 악화되어 번들거리기도 한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;올바른 뷰티 습관 -

/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;할 것 - &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:굴림;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;span

받는다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;하지 말 것 - &lt;/b&gt;오일 성분의 화장품은 번들거리는 피부에 트러블까지 일으킬 수 있으므로 사용을 삼갈 것. 또 지나친 각질 관리도 피부에 자극이 될 수 있다. 안면 홍조 증세가 있는 지성 피부의 경우 뜨거운 스팀타월은 증상을 악화시킬 수 있다&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;

수면 부족 등 부신 피질 호르몬 증가 때문일 가능성이 크다. 충분히 자고 스트레스를 줄이며 여드름 연고와 물약을 발라주는 것이 효과적.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;하지 말 것 - &lt;/b&gt;음주, 흡연, 과로를 피한다. 또한 여드름을 집에서 함부로 짜면 모공이 더 넓어지고 흉터가 생기기 쉽다. 부득이 짜는 경우에는 소독한 면봉 2개를 이용할 것. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;

&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;span

팽팽하게 만들기 때문이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;할 것 - &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"

발라준다. 남자들은 유독 지성 피부가 많지만 지성 피부라도 눈가나 입가는 건조하므로 전용 크림을 꼭 바를 것.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;하지 말 것 - &lt;/b&gt;흡연은 피부의 재생 능력을 떨어뜨려서 젊은 나이에도 잔주름을 생기게 한다. 잔주름 예방을 위해 담배는 금물.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

합니다.&lt;br /&gt;대략적인 적용 사이즈&lt;br /&gt;신장 150-160 : 13인치 (13인치 미만은 아동용을 제외하고는 구하기가 하늘에 별따기)&lt;br /&gt;160 - 165 : 14,15인치 (혹은 스몰 사이즈)&lt;br /&gt;165-173 : 15.5 또는 16인치&lt;br /&gt;173-180 : 17인치 또는 17.5인치 (혹은 미디엄 사이즈)&lt;br /&gt;180 이상 : 19인치 (라지 사이즈)&lt;br /&gt;프레임 사이즈는 회사 메이커 별로 약간씩 차이가 있고,&lt;br /&gt;개인간의 신체 생김(숏,롱팔/다리/허리) 등에 따라 차이가 있기에&lt;br /&gt;정확하게 구분 지을 수 없습니다.&lt;br /&gt;!!!!때문에 직접 살펴 보면서 구입하시는 것이 가장 좋습니다.!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. 용도&lt;br /&gt;로드만 탈 것인가?&lt;br /&gt;산도 탈 것인가?&lt;br /&gt;묘기를 부릴 것인가?&lt;br /&gt;등등의 사용 용도에 따라 자전거 선택이 달라집니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;① 하드테일 (가장 일반적인 형태의 MTB)&lt;br /&gt;앞바퀴 쪽에 샥(충격완화장치)이 있고, 뒤쪽에는 샥이 없는 모델.&lt;br /&gt;거의 대부분 로드용으로 구입.&lt;br /&gt;로드, 산악, 크로스 컨츄리 등 다양한 용도로 사용 가능함.&lt;br /&gt;다른 모델에 비해 무게가 가벼운 편임.&lt;br /&gt;가격도 다양하여 헝그리부터 럭셔리까지 선택의 폭이 넓음.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;② 풀샥 (프리차, 프리모델이라고도 함. 최근 들어 이런 형태의 MTB를 구입하는 사람들이 많아짐)&lt;br /&gt;앞바퀴는 물론 뒤쪽에도 여러가지 형태의 샥이 있는 모델.&lt;br /&gt;로드와 산악을 겸용하는 라이더들이 선호함.&lt;br /&gt;튼튼한 프레임과 추가적인 부품(뒷샥, 뒷샥연결부위(스윙암) 등)들로 인해&lt;br /&gt;무게가 무거운 편임.&lt;br /&gt;신품 가격이 대부분 200만원대부터 시작하여 헝그리에겐 그림의 떡 ㅡㅡ;;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;③ 다운힐 (제가 한때 탔던 모델입니다)&lt;br /&gt;엄청난 앞샥/뒷샥과 무식하게 생긴 강력한 프레임, 확실한 제동력을 보여주는 브레이크 등을 갖고 있는 모델.&lt;br /&gt;거의 산악 활강과 각종 점프 등을 목적으로 하는 라이더들이 사용함.&lt;br /&gt;각종 부품들의 엄청난 무게로 인해 가벼운 하드테일의 두배 이상의 중량을 자랑함.&lt;br /&gt;신품 가격이 대략 300 만원대부터 시작하여 .....수억짜리도 있음 ㅋ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;④ 기타 모델&lt;br /&gt;- BMX : 아기자기한 묘기나, 점프, 회전 등을 목적으로 하는 자전거&lt;br /&gt;- 어반/트라이얼 : 도시의 각종 기물들을 이용하여, 점프, 올라타기, 뛰어 내리기 등을 목적으로 하는 자전거&lt;br /&gt;- 로드용 : 일명 싸이클. 말 그대로 로드만 전문적으로 타는 모델.&lt;br /&gt;- 리컴번트 : 누워서 타는 자전거죠. 장거리 로드 여행용으로 딱 좋습니다.&lt;br /&gt;저희 클럽의 모 회원님은 뱃살 제거용으로 사용중이시죠.&lt;br /&gt;- 바구니, 미니벨로, 신사용, 배달용, 어린이용, 외발 등등등...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. 구성&lt;br /&gt;쉽게 말해 각종 부품들의 구성을 살펴 보셔야 합니다.&lt;br /&gt;부품은 수천가지라 일일히 설명도 못드리고, 저도 모르는 것들이 대부분이라&lt;br /&gt;MTB를 기준으로 말씀 드리겠습니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;흔히들 말하는 일본 시마노회사의 구동계열 부품에 여러 등급이 있습니다.&lt;br /&gt;구동계열부품 :변속레버, 변속기어, 체인, 스프라켓(뒷톱니), 체인링(앞톱니), 크랭크, 허브(바퀴회전중심 축) 등&lt;br /&gt;SIS &lt; 투어니 &lt; 알투스 &lt; 아세라 &lt; 알리비오 &lt; 데오레 &lt; LX &lt; XT &lt; XTR&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SIS가 최하 등급이고, XTR 등급이 최상품입니다.&lt;br /&gt;상등급으로 갈수록 부품도 튼튼해지고, 무게도 가벼워 집니다.&lt;br /&gt;데오레 등급부터가 전문 산악용입니다.&lt;br /&gt;한마디로 웬만한 라이딩엔 끄떡 없고, 튼튼하다는 얘기죠.&lt;br /&gt;하지만 전국일주도 안하실 것이고, 산을 안타실 것이라면 아세라 등급으로도 충분합니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ&lt;br /&gt;복잡해서 읽기 싫으신 분을 위해 간단히 말씀 드리자면&lt;br /&gt;뒷 기어의 7단, 8단, 9단의 차이 입니다.&lt;br /&gt;7단은 일반 생활자전거의 뒷 기어(톱니)갯수죠.&lt;br /&gt;8단은 데오레 미만 등급의 기어갯수입니다.&lt;br /&gt;9단은 데오레 이상 등급의 기어갯수입니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;기어의 갯수가 많을 수록 좋은건 아시겠죠?&lt;br /&gt;7단으로는 심한 언덕에 올라가려면 무척 힘듭니다.&lt;br /&gt;9단으로는 못올라가는 언덕 거의 없습니다.&lt;br /&gt;있다하면 그건 자전거를 타고서는 못올라가는 경사라고 생각하시면 됩니다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;24단 ,27단이 뭐냐고요?&lt;br /&gt;앞기어갯수(보통 3개) X 뒷기어갯수(8개) = 24단 이죠. 너무 쉬운걸 설명했나 봅니다 ㅡㅡ;;;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. 브랜드&lt;br /&gt;외국 제품들이 이쁘고, 멋있죠?&lt;br /&gt;하지만 중저가 제품에서는 관세 및 유통비용 때문에&lt;br /&gt;국산 제품들이 가격대비 성능및 부품 구성에서 분명히 낫습니다.&lt;br /&gt;굳이 외국브랜드를 고집하실 필요 없습니다.&lt;br /&gt;추천하는 국내 브랜드 - 알톤, 엘팔마(코렉스), 블랙캣(삼천리) 등..^^&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. 기타&lt;br /&gt;- 디자인 및 색상 : 이쁘지도 않은데 싸게 나온 물건이라고 덥썩 사버리면 정이 안갑니다.&lt;br /&gt;먼지만 쌓이게 되죠. 이쁜거 사세요 ㅋ&lt;br /&gt;- 브레이크 : 림브레이크(혹은 V-브레이크라고 하는 일반적 브레이크)와 디스크브레이크(오토바이용 처럼 생긴녀석) 가 있죠.&lt;br /&gt;입문자용으로는 림브레이크 적극 추천합니다.&lt;br /&gt;디스크브레이크는 보기엔 멋있죠?&lt;br /&gt;제동력은 좋죠. 하지만 엄청 비쌉니다. 관리가 엄청 어렵습니다.&lt;br /&gt;- 페달 : 일반 평페달과 클릿페달(탈착식)&lt;br /&gt;자전거 타는데 어느 정도 자신감이 있으면 클릿페달을 사십쇼.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. 보호 장구 및 악세사리&lt;br /&gt;- 헬멧 : 반드시 있어야 합니다. 비싸지 않아도 됩니다. 본인 머리에 맞는 것 사십쇼.&lt;br /&gt;- 장갑 : 역시 반드시 있어야 합니다. 손에 피로감을 덜어주고, 넘어질 시에 부상을 확실히 방지해줍니다. 여름엔 좀 덥더라도 긴장갑 추천합니다.&lt;br /&gt;- 라이트 : 앞, 뒤 모두 있으면 좋습니다. 캄캄한 시골길 다니실 것이 아니라면 깜빡이는 기능만 있는 제품도 충분합니다. LED깜빡이 앞뒤 한세트 15,000원 정도 합니다.&lt;br /&gt;- 져지(상의) : 기능성 의류라 아주 시원하고 착용감도 좋습니다. 등산복과 거의 같은 소재이기에 대용해도 됩니다.

In the declaration after this conference, Korea was mentioned for the first time. The three powers declared that they, "mindful of the enslavement of the people of Korea are determined that in due course Korea shall become free and independent.� For some Korean nationalists who wanted immediate independence, the phrase "in due course" was cause for dismay. Roosevelt may have proposed to Stalin that 30 or 40 years elapse before full Korean independence; Stalin demurred, saying that a shorter period of time would be desirable. In any case, discussion of Korea among the Allies would not resume until victory over Japan was nearly imminent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;With the war's end in sight in August 1945, there was still no consensus on Korea's fate among Allied leaders. Many Koreans on the peninsula had made their own plans for the future of Korea, and few of these plans included the re-occupation of Korea by foreign forces. In accordance with a policy suggested by the US to the Soviet Union, the Russians declared war on Japan and moved their military forces into northeastern China and northern Korea. However, the American leaders worried that the whole peninsula might be occupied by the Soviet Union, and feared this might lead to a Soviet occupation of Japan. Later events showed these fears to be unfounded. The Soviet forces would arrive in Korea before the American forces, but they occupied only the northern part of the peninsula, halting their advance at the 38th parallel, which was in keeping with their agreement with the United States. On August 10, 1945 two young officers � Dean Rusk and Charles Bonesteel � were assigned the task of creating an American occupation zone. Working on extremely short notice and completely unprepared for the task, they used a National Geographic map to decide on the 38th parallel; they chose it because it divided the country approximately in half but would leave the capital Seoul under American control. No experts on Korea were consulted and the two men were unaware that forty years previous, Japan and Russia had discussed sharing Korea along the same parallel; Rusk later said that had he known, he would have chosen a different line. Regardless, the decision was hastily written into General Order Number One for the administration of postwar Japan.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;As a colony of Japan, the Korean people had been systematically excluded from important posts in the administration of Korea. The general Abe Nobuyuki, the last Japanese Governor-General of Korea, was in contact with a number of influential Koreans since the beginning of August 1945 to prepare the hand-over of power. On August 15, 1945, Yo Un Hyong, a moderate left-wing politician, agreed to take over. He was in charge of preparing the creation of a new country and worked hard to build governmental structures. On September 6, 1945, a congress of representatives was convened in Seoul. The foundation of a modern Korean state took place just three weeks after Japan's capitulation. The government was predominantly left wing, caused in part by the many resistance fighters who agreed with many of communism's views on imperialism and colonialism.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;After World War II&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;In the South Main article: United States Army Military Government in Korea On September 7, 1945, General MacArthur announced that Lieutenant General John R. Hodge was to administer Korean affairs, and Hodge landed in Incheon with his troops the next day. The "Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea" sent a delegation with three interpreters, but he refused to meet with them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;With their focus overwhelmingly being on Japan, the American military authorities paid much less attention to Korea and soldiers generally did not want to be assigned there. While Japan was put under the administration of civilians, Korea was placed under the direct administration of military units. Little changed in the administration of the country; officials then serving under the Japanese authorities remained in their positions. The Japanese governor was not dismissed until the middle of September and many Japanese officials stayed in office until 1946. These decisions angered most Koreans since these same Japanese had helped exploit Koreans. Adding to this anger was the American military's choice to give many governmental positions to Koreans who had betrayed their country by collaborating with the Japanese rulers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;The US occupation authorities in southern Korea viewed many indigenous attempts at government as a communist insurgency and refused to recognize the "Provisional Government". However, an anti-communist named Syngman Rhee, who moved back to Korea after decades of exile in the US, was considered an acceptable candidate to provisionally lead the country since he was considered friendly to the US. Meanwhile on August 31, 1946, an editorial in the Chosun Ilbo told Hodge that the deteriorating economy was leaving the Korean people suffering more than any time under Japanese rule. Under Rhee, and often with the knowledge and consent of the American military, the southern government conducted a number of campaigns aimed ostensibly at "removing communism" but that in reality targeted anyone who opposed his rule. Over the course of the next few years, over 100,000 people would lose their lives in these campaigns. [1] In August 1948, Syngman Rhee became the first president of South Korea, and U.S. forces left the peninsula.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;[edit] In the North In August 1945 the Soviet Army established the Soviet Civil Authority to rule the country until a domestic regime, friendly to the USSR, could be established. Provisional committees were set up across the country putting Communists into key positions. In March 1946 land reform was instituted as the land from Japanese and collaborator land owners was divided and handed over to poor farmers. Kim Il-sung initiated a sweeping land refrom program in 1946. Organizing the many poor peasants and agricultural laborers under the people's committees a nationwide mass campaign broke the control of the old landed classes. Landlords were allowed to keep only the same amount of land as peasants who had once rented their land, thereby making for a far more equal distribution of land. The north Korean land reform was achieved in a less violent way than that of China or Vietnam. Official American sources stated, "From all accounts, the former village leaders were eliminated as a political force with resort to bloodshed, but extreme care was take to preclude their return to power."[2] This was very popular with the farmers, but caused many collaborators and former landowners to flee to the south where some of the obtained positions in the new south Korean government.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;Key industries were nationalized. The economic situation was nearly as difficult in the north as it was in the south, as the Japanese had concentrated agriculture in the south and heavy industry in the north.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;In February 1946 a provisional government called the North Korean Provisional People's Committee was formed under Kim Il-sung, who had spent the last years of the war training with Soviet troops in Manchuria. Conflicts and power struggles rose up at the top levels of government in Pyongyang as different aspirants maneuvered to gain positions of power in the new government. At the local levels, people's committees openly attacked collaborators and some landlords, confiscating much of their land and possessions. As a consequence many collaborators and others disappeared or were assassinated. It was out in the provinces and by working with these same people's committees that the eventual leader of North Korea, Kim Il-sung, was able to build a grassroots support system that would lift him to power over his political rivals who had stayed in Pyongyang. Soviet forces departed in 1948.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;Establishment of two Koreas With mistrust growing rapidly between the formerly allied United States and Soviet Union, no agreement was reached on how to reconcile the competing provisional governments. The U.S. brought the problem before the United Nations in the fall of 1947. The USSR opposed UN involvement.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;The UN passed a resolution on November 14, 1947, declaring that free elections should be held, foreign troops should be withdrawn, and a UN commission for Korea should be created.

This conference produced no results, and the Soviets boycotted the UN-supervised elections in the south. There was no UN supervision of elections in the north. On May 10 the south held elections. Syngman Rhee, who had called for partial elections in the south to consolidate his power as early as 1947, was elected, though left-wing parties boycotted the election. Widespread corruption was reported in the elections and the Republic of Korea began life without a great deal of legitimacy. On August 13, he formally took over power from the U.S. military.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;[edit] Korean War In the North, Democratic People's Republic of Korea was declared on September 9, with Kim Il-sung as prime minister. This division of Korea, after more than a millennium of being unified, was seen as unacceptable and temporary by both regimes. From 1948 until the start of the civil war on June 25, 1950, the armed forces of each side engaged in a series of bloody conflicts along the border. In 1950, these conflicts escalated dramatically when North Korean forces attacked South Korea, triggering the Korean War and effectively making the division permanent. An armistice was signed ending hostilities and the two sides agreed to create a three-mile wide buffer zone between the states, where nobody would enter. This area came to be known as the Demilitarized Zone or DMZ.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;After the Korean War (1953�present) Main articles: Korean Demilitarized Zone and Korean reunification North and South Korea have never signed a formal peace treaty and thus are still officially at war; only a ceasefire was declared. South Korea's government came to be dominated by its military and a relative peace was punctuated by border skirmishes and assassination attempts. The North failed in several assassination attempts on South Korean leaders, most notably in 1968, 1974 and 1983; tunnels were frequently found under the DMZ and war nearly broke out over the ax-murder incident at Panmunjeom in 1976. In 1973, extremely secret, high-level contacts began to be conducted through the guise of the Red Cross, but ended after the Panmunjeom incident with little progress having been made.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;In the late 1990s, with the South having transitioned to democracy, the success of the Nordpolitik policy, and power in the North having been taken up by Kim Il-sung's son Kim Jong-il, the two nations began to engage publicly for the first time, with the South declaring its Sunshine Policy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;Recently, in effort to promote reconciliation, the two Koreas have adopted an unofficial Unification Flag, representing Korea at international sporting events. The South provides the North with significant aid and cooperative economic ventures, and the two governments have cooperated in organizing meetings of separated family members and limited tourism of North Korean sites. However, the two states still do not recognize each other, and the Sunshine Policy remains controversial in South Korea.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; "&gt;The apportionment of responsibility for the division is much debated, although the older generation of South Koreans generally blame the North's communist zeal for instigating the Korean War.

Further, the Business Thinking Meta Model divides a thinking process into three parts such as Exploring, Analyzing, and Deciding. Each of the three approaches has conceptual terms for each divided thinking process. This three-by-three categorization and nine conceptual terms give us an exhausted recognition about business thinking and systematic selection criteria to pick up one or a combined appropriate thinking approaches. Moreover, by understanding and applying the Business Thinking Meta Model, we can understand the usefulness and limitation of business concepts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Next, we can see more examinations of the three thinking approaches and newly defined conceptual terms. In order to understand the thinking approaches and utilize the power of them, this report explains the strengths and weaknesses, the requirements, and the adaptations, of the three approaches.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Proactive Thinking: Beyond Causation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;We identify the strengths and weaknesses of Proactive Thinking, set the three requirements of proactive thinking and examine several popular business thinking approaches which include Proactive Thinking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Strengths and Weaknesses of Proactive Thinking&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Though Proactive Thinking is a powerful approach to considering uncertain future situations, Proactive Thinking is not a conventional thinking approach.

Exploring the wider ranges helps to find new ideas and to develop a new system, which substitutes a current system.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mechanical Analysis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;In order to escape from persistent causal thinking in our mind set, mechanical analysis is required. Edward De Bono1, who is a popular imaginative thinking researcher, conceived "Lateral Thinking," which is a typical mechanical conception method.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Alex Osborn2, who is also a famous imaginative thinking researcher, proposed another mechanical conception method (we call his method the Osborn method). The Osborn method includes adaption, modification, substitution, addition, multiplication, subtraction, division, rearrangemnet, reversal and combination. All these approaches target perspective change.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Further Econometrics and other mathematical models such as break even analysis, the Discount Cash Flow Model, and statistical test models are typical approaches of mechanical analysis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Contingent decision making&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;When we think of an uncertain future, contingent planning is powerful. Multiple scenarios are outcomes of contingent decision making. The Game Theory is a typical contingent decision making approach.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Other considerations for Proactive Thinking&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Vision&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Vision making is thinking in an abstract level. Vision making has Exploring, Analyzing, and Decision Making, in an abstract level. All Proactive Thinking, Reactive Thinking, and Passive Thinking can include vision making.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Importance of a vision is in its nobility, challenging spirit, heroism, and contributing spirit, which encourage members of an organization. Since these aspects relates to the implementation of thinking, vision should be researched with the implementation of thinking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Intuition&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Intuitive conception is frequently recognized as Proactive Thinking, but intuition comes from accumulated experiences. Intuition can eliminate a time-consuming logical causation process but is still based on an empirical mind set.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Time-based competition&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Proactive Thinking itself is relatively time-consuming, but after we prepare multiple scenarios, we can respond to environmental changes quickly. Proactive Thinking is time-consuming in a thinking process but agile in an implementation process.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Adaptations of Proactive Thinking&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;We can see a few Proactive Thinking approaches, but Proactive Thinking is not common as much as Reactive Thinking and Passive Thinking are. As adaptations of Proactive Thinking, this report picked out Michael Porter's Competitive Advantage analysis, Peter Senge's System Thinking approach and Gary Hamel's "Strategy as Revolution" concept.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Porter's Competitive Advantage analysis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Porter's analysis3 is a typical proactive thinking example. But unfortunately his conceptual frameworks are frequently segregated by adopters and each of frameworks is used as an independent and static frame. Further, his scenario analysis, the most powerful tool of his analysis for Proactive Thinking, is not popular, though other frameworks such as the five force model, the generic strategy matrix and the value chain are famous and are frequently adopted for strategy formulation, which should be proactive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Senge's Systems Thinking approach&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Senge4 explained the limitation of a system with escalation and delay, which are built in a system and cause a malfunction in a system. Using escalation and delay, Senge practically proposed an alarm to know the time to develop a new system. New system development is the very proactive thinking. But Senge did not mention clearly the necessity of contingent decision making or multiple scenarios. Contingent decision making or multiple scenarios are requirements for proactive thinking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Senge also mentioned "Creative Tension" which is an adaptation of a traditional problem solving concept. A traditional problem solving method uses a kind of subtraction to define a problem. The definition is "Ideal Situation - Current Situation = Problem." This formula assumes that a current situation has problems. Senge applied this formula to Proactive Thinking, assuming that a current situation does not have problems. Senge's formula is "Vision - Current Reality = Creative Tension." Senge focused on the proactive side of problem solving.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Hamel's "Strategy as Revolution" concept&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Hamel5 mentioned that breaking through accumulated experiences is essential for strategizing. Hamel's strategy is not exclusively a corporate strategy. Hamel emphazied strategic approaches for every business activity. Hamel used a "revolution" as an analogy for a strategic activity. Hamel proposed the importance of proactive thinking but he did not mention how to realize his idea. Proactive Thinking, which we see in this report, can realize Hamel's concept.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Reactive Thinking: Power of Experience&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;We can see strengths and weaknesses of Proactive Thinking, three requirements of Reactive Thinking and two popular business thinking approaches which include Reactive Thinking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Strengths and Weaknesses&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Reactive Thinking is a popular and efficient problem solving approach, but it is applicable only when business conditions are stable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Strengths&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" ;font-family:arial;"&gt;Reactive Thinking is widely applicable (Almost all daily analyses and decision-makings should be based on Reactive Thinking).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" ;font-family:arial;"&gt;Reactive Thinking is persuasive (Because Reactive Thinking has causal explanations).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" ;font-family:arial;"&gt;Reactive Thinking is powerful when we target continuous improvement&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" ;font-family:arial;"&gt;Reactive Thinking is time-efficient&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Weaknesses&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" ;font-family:arial;"&gt;Reactive Thinking can not propose drastic changes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" ;font-family:arial;"&gt;Reactive Thinking is powerless when business conditions are uncertain.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Requirements&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Setting functional relations, analyzing causation, and developing an optimal solution are three requirements of Reactive Thinking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Functioning&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;This report names the thinking process through which we set functional relations of the targeted field "Functioning". Functioning is the first requirement for Reactive Thinking. An analysis process of Reactive Thinking uses the functional relations to find causation. (A set of functional relations is frequently called "system")&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Causation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;To clarify cause and effect relations of a targeted field is the analysis process of Reactive Thinking, called Causation. Causation is an universal and persuasive analysis method, since most of us are influenced by causation through educational and cultural experiences.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Further, we can find causation only based on our accumulated experiences, which are both direct experiences and secondary experiences. Secondary experiences include informative experiences through reading books, hearing others' experiences, and so on. Since each of us has familiar causation method, finding causation is time-efficient (We are frequently unconscious of our familiar method, but we are influenced by it). But under uncertain business situations, experience-based causation is powerless.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Optimal Decision Making&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;To find a best solution scenario, which solves the true cause, is the third requirement of Passive Thinking. Since causation can find reliable causes of a problem, though the reliability is not 100 %, we can focus on the causes to find solutions. Therefore our solution can be one scenario, or a set of scenarios, which target the same causes. This report names this type of decision making Optimal Decision Making.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Further, since Optimal Decision Making comes from causal analysis, it is impossible to find a reengineering type of solution.

Reactive Thinking is the most popular business thinking. As adaptations of Proactive Thinking, this report picked out KAIZEN method and Charles Kepner's rational thinking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;KAIZEN (Continuous Improvement) method&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;KAIZEN is a typical Reactive Thinking. KAIZEN is elaborated in Japanese manufacturing companies. In a typical KAIZEN method, front-line workers propose a small change in production system. Their proposals target the improvement of productivity. Even if they think about future improvement, they focus on eliminating inefficiency from their current production systems. They do not think a total system change. Further, they propose one cause of each inefficiency and one solution to the cause. Their approaches are typical Reactive Thinking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Charles Kepner's rational thinking&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;One of the founder of the Kepner Torigoe method, Charles Kepner6, mentioned that a solution should be selected among possible alternatives, and that a selection among alternatives is better than a rushed decision making based on the initial idea. Kepner's idea is a combination of Proactive Thinking and Reactive Thinking. Kepner combines contingent decision making with Reactive Thinking, but he recommends picking up one solution. Since Kepner's method is based on an optimal decision making, it is useful only when business conditions are stable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"

style="font-size:small;"&gt;We can see strengths and weaknesses of Passive Thinking, three requirements of Passive Thinking and adaptations of Passive Thinking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br

style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Passive Thinking can recognize situations but is not useful for decision

to misunderstood as adaptations of popular business thinking concepts such as the value chain analysis, SWAT analysis, Life cycle model, and Core competence model, but these adaptations are mere data mappings on certain formats.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"

style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Setting a frame, which arranges data and possibilities, analyzing the data and possibilities through the frame and deciding with intuition are three requirements of Passive Thinking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span

class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Making a frame, which is supposed to exhaust existing data and future possibilities, is the required exploration for Passive Thinking. Passive Thinking does not require finding causal relations or a meta system.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mapping&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Verifying whether the proposed frame can exhaust data and possibilities is the required analysis for Passive Thinking. This report calls this process Mapping. In order to verify whether the data and potentials are exhausted or not, the Pyramid Principle and the MECE Principle are conventional. Both principles were mentioned by Barbara Minto7. The Pyramid Principle suggests collecting and arranging data hierarchically. Higher layers include more abstract expressions and lower layers include more concrete expressions. Since we say the same things with different levels of abstraction, arranging information into a hierarchical frame is a powerful method to clarify complex situations. MECE stands for Mutually Exclusive and Collectively Exhaustive. If we can arrange information exhaustively and without double counting in each level of the hierarchy, the way of arrangement is ideal. The Pyramid principle and the MECE principle is useful for Mapping process.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Intuitive Decision making&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Since Passive Thinking does not have causal analysis, we can not find causal criteria to pick up one optimal solution in Passive Thinking. Further, since Passive Thinking does not have mechanical conception, we can not find multiple scenarios as Proactive Thinking can find. Therefore Passive Thinking can only depend on intuitions for decision making. Intuitive Decision Making is the third requirement of Passive Thinking. Intuition can go beyond causation but is still influenced by accumulated experiences. Sometimes intuitions work very well, but usually intuitions are clueless. Intuitive Decision Making seems to be practical but is risky.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Adaptations&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;We can see many Passive Thinking approaches, but frequently Passive Thinking approaches are mis-adaptations of Proactive Thinking or Reactive Thinking. As adaptations of Proactive Thinking, this report picked out Financial Statements and SWAT analysis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Financial Statements&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Financial statements are typical static frames. Even if financial statements exhaust relevant information, financial statements themselves say nothing. In order to know meaningful information from financial statements, we must use Proactive Thinking or Reactive Thinking to predict the future or find cause and effect relations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;SWAT analysis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;SWAT analysis is one of the most popular marketing analysis tools. But a SWAT frame is used only for arranging information. After analysts arranged information, they can use only their intuition to formulate action plans.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Conclusion&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;In an uncertain business situation, which we face these days, Proactive Thinking is most useful. When we use Proactive Thinking, we must watch for the unconscious induction from causation, which comes from accumulated previous experiences. Further, we should recognize that most of our thinking should be Reactive. We do not have to use Proactive Thinking for our daily thinking. Moreover, the easy adaptation of business thinking concepts is apt to be only Passive Thinking and the results become only an arrangement of information. Passive Thinking is useful only for recognizing situations. The next table summarizes three thinking approaches in terms of main usage, applicable situations, required time, and persuasiveness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Further, we can appropriately utilize business thinking concepts with the Business Thinking Meta Model. We can examine whether the concepts are proactive, reactive or passive by checking how the concepts explore situations, how the concepts analyze issues, and how the concepts make decisions. After the examinations, we can apply the concepts for suitable usage and situations, efficiently and persuasively. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Summary of Business Thinking approaches&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table border="1" cellspacing="1" width="480"&gt;

This is desirable for the purpose of analysis, because it avoids both the problem of double counting and the risk of overlooking information.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;The MECE principle is useful in the business mapping process. If information can be arranged exhaustively and without double counting in each level of the hierarchy, the way of arrangement is ideal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Examples of MECE categorization would include categorizing people by year of birth (assuming all years are known). A non-MECE example would be categorization by nationality, because nationalities are neither mutually exclusive (some people have dual nationality) nor collectively exhaustive (some people have none).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"

style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I have only 15 days in Toronto.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Last week, I made up my mind to walk around Toronto as a backpacker.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I've visited some popular shops so far.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;However, today, I was really a backpacker travelling in Toronto.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;So I want to call today my first day of travel in Toronto.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"

style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I headed to Kensington Market after selling my bicycle for $65 this morning.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The place I first went to was 'European Sausage' shop.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;It is an amazing shop which sells cheap sausages, hamburgers and souvlakis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I bought a souvlaki for lunch and ate a delicious waffle at 'Goed Eten.'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;and I enjoyed a cup of coffee at a beautiful coffee shop called 'Casa Acoreana Cafe,' reading 'Girl with a pearl earring' I borrowed at Toronto Public Library.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;and then I visited at 'Moonbean Coffee,' and bought some coffee titled 'Bolivia Colonial Caranavi' for my friends in PMM.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Lastly, I read 'NOW' newspaper and a book outside, enjoying the rainy scenery.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I felt strange about Toronto when travelling.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;shy and awkward.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I personally think re-explorings some places where I'm already been might make me feel shy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I shouldn't have been at a
