[Abstract] This paper is a report on the symposium “Sound Media History and Sound Art: The Current Status of History, Creation and Archives” held at the National Museum of International Art, Osaka, on February 16, 2020. In response to the development of Sound Studies in English-speaking countries, historical research into audio media, including recording technology, has been gaining momentum in Japan in recent years. Rather than audio media being viewed as “music device” exclusively, a series of discussions that attempt to see it as a historical form linked to science and philosophy, and to the transformation of human sensibilities and bodily views, have important implications that can also be linked to Visual Culture Studies, which is also experiencing remarkable development. This symposium attempts to communicate with experts in related fields, such as sound artists, record archivists, and curators, in order to re-examine the current circumstances of such studies of sound media history.

[Abstract]In this paper, I used Personal Attitude Construct (PAC) analysis to examine adult students learning Korean and explore the meaning and purpose of continuous Korean language learning. The results revealed that these students had positive attitudes toward learning Korean and perceived it as an enjoyable part of their lives. As there are few studies on adult students in Korean language education, these findings could become a basic reference source for exploring the direction of Korean language education as lifelong learning.

[Abstract] Due to their ambiguous and fluctuating nature, socio-cultural policies have played only a limited role in promoting national integration. This study examines how the substance of the policies has been forged from political, economic and social contexts. Under an ethnic-based political structure, the government has been compelled to balance the demands of various ethnic communities and hence to have ambiguous and fluctuating socio-cultural policies. Malaysia's economic growth strategies dependent on FDI also induce the government to implement vague and shifting policies since these policies result in stable political and social climate. Stability has been the most important comparative advantage for attracting FDI to Malaysia during its period of modern economic growth. Because Malay preferential policies are logically incompatible with the principles of assimilation and multiculturalism, policy ambiguity in government planning has ensued.
