Rev. SUN MYUNG MOON'S UNIFICATION MOVEMENT AND A GLOBAL CIVIL RELIGION

Masuda, Yoshihiko Joshua 선문대학교 통일신학연구원 2000 통일신학연구 Vol.5 No.-

세계는 공산주의사상의 파산과 서구 자유주의의 빛바랜 약속의 사이에서 제3의 길을 호소하고 있다. 통일사상은 이러한 요구를 춤족시켜 주고 있다. 그것은 영적인 기반을 시작으로하며 조화롭고 번영된 사회를 위해 필요한 개체내의 내적기대를 강조한다. 따라서 그것의 출발점은 하나님의 성품과 하나님과 인간과의 관계에 두고 있다. 인간의 삶은 내·외양면의 균형을 요구하고 있으나, 동양과 서양에 지배적인 세속적 세계관은 외적, 물질적조건 둥에 중점을 두고, 보다 더 근본적인 내적가치는 무시하는 경향이 있다. 만일 세계가 온전히 하나가 되고, 분열된 종교·철학·문화와 국가가 조화를 이루어 영구적인 평화를위한 조건을 창조하기 위해서는 가치의 올바른 정립이 요구된다는 것이 통일사상의 견해이다. 본 논문에서 필자는 통일사상의 중심된 특징들, 특히 존재론과 방법에 주안점을 두고 서술하고자 한다. 왜냐하면 그 방법과 구조가 변증법적 철학과 유사점을 지니기 때문이며, 어떤 비교는 막스와 헤겔의 변증법적 방법들로 구성될 것이기 때문이다. 이러한 변증법적 철학들과의 피상적인 유사성에도 불구하고 통일사상은 그것의 근본 토대를 종교철학에 두고 있다. 그와 같이 통일사상은 어떠한 교리에 집착하기보다, 더 근본적인 사랑안에 존재하는 인간 영혼의 깊은 단계를 다루기 때문에 필자는 그것이 단지 하나의 이데올로기만이 아님을 보여 주고자 한다. This paper will discuss the relationship between the Rev. Sun Myung Moon's Unification Movement (hereafter UM) and a global civil religion. In the first section, we will review scholarly discussions on a global civil religion and examine the relationships between the UM and a global civil religion. In the second section, we will point out the similarities between the UM s beliefs and the four tenets of Rousseau‘s civil religion and present the UM in terms of these four tenets of his civil religion. In the third section, we will clarify the differences between the UM and Rousseau' s civil religion and discuss the implications of the similarities and differences between the two. This paper will argue that the UM is a religious movement striving for world peace and unification and that it is a genuine facilitator for the rise of a global civil religion.

Priority queues with bursty arrivals of incoming tasks.

Masuda, N,Kim, J S,Kahng, B Published by the American Physical Society through 2009 Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and so Vol.79 No.3

<P>Recently increased accessibility of large-scale digital records enables one to monitor human activities such as the interevent time distributions between two consecutive visits to a web portal by a single user, two consecutive emails sent out by a user, two consecutive library loans made by a single individual, etc. Interestingly, those distributions exhibit a universal behavior, D(tau) approximately tau(-delta) , where tau is the interevent time, and delta approximately 1 or 32 . The universal behaviors have been modeled via the waiting-time distribution of a task in the queue operating based on priority; the waiting time follows a power-law distribution P(w)(tau) approximately tau(-alpha) with either alpha=1 or 32 depending on the detail of queuing dynamics. In these models, the number of incoming tasks in a unit time interval has been assumed to follow a Poisson-type distribution. For an email system, however, the number of emails delivered to a mail box in a unit time we measured follows a power-law distribution with general exponent gamma . For this case, we obtain analytically the exponent alpha , which is not necessarily 1 or 32 and takes nonuniversal values depending on gamma . We develop the generating function formalism to obtain the exponent alpha , which is distinct from the continuous time approximation used in the previous studies.</P>

Effect of Sugar-Beet Pulp Supplementation on Fiber Degradation of Grass Hay in the Rumen of Goats

Masuda, Y.,Kondo, S.,Shimojo, M.,Goto, I. Asian Australasian Association of Animal Productio 1999 Animal Bioscience Vol.12 No.2

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of four levels (0, 10, 20, 40 %) of sugar-beet pulp (SB pulp) supplementation to Italian ryegrass hay (IRG hay) on the fiber degradability of IRG hay in the rumen of goats. The following results were obtained: Degradabilities of DM, NDF, ADF and hemicellulose of IRG hay in the rumen increased significantly (p<0.05) by 10 % level supplementation of SB pulp to IRG hay. This was probably due to the increased numbers (p<0.05) of total viable bacteria, pectin-fermenting, xylan-fermenting and cellulolytic bacteria in the rumen in the increased supply of degradable pectic substances and hemicellulose at 10% level supplementation of SB pulp pectin. In 40% supplementation of SB pulp, ruminal pH was lowered by the fermentation of increased amount of molasses from SB pulp, resulting in the depression of growth of fiber fermenting bacteria and hence the decrease in degradabilities of cell wall fractions. It was suggested from this study that the sugar-beet pulp supplementation to forages at the level of 10% in the total diet increased fiber degradation of forage in the rumen of goats.

SKFM Observation of Corrosion on SUS304 Stainless Steel

Masuda, Hiroyuki 한국부식방식학회 2002 Corrosion Science and Technology Vol.31 No.2

Super Kelvin force method (SKFM) which is one of AFM measurement method is very useful for corrosion study, because the surface morphology and potential distribution can be obtained at high accuracy. The most cases the atmospheric corrosion is accelerated by sea salt. The initial corrosion mechanism of steels by sea salt particles is not well known. In-situ observation of corrosion initiated fkom a small water droplet of MgCl₂ was done by SKFM and the mechanism of atmospheric corrosion is discussed. The test specimen used was a SUS304 stainless steel. SKFM measurement was done under the constant temperature (297± 0.5 K) and the relative humidity range of 40 to 50 %. The test specimen was dry-polished up to 0.32m roughness and droplets of MgCl₂ with diameter of 0.3 - 0.8 mm were attached on the specimen, then they were kept the condition mentioned above. The corrosion morphology can be divided into 2 types: 1. Corrosion progressed inside of specimen with corrosion product when the liquid layer of MgCl₂ was thin. 2. Corrosion progressed inside of specimen without corrosion product when the liquid layer of MgCl₂ was thick. The corrosion product is invisible when the liquid layer of MgCl₂ was thin. Potential of the part where the droplet is attached becomes more negative as the thickness of liquid layer increased after corrosion stasted. Enrichment of chloride ion occurred at corroding part and water is supplied by the deliquescence of metal chloride.

Masuda, M.,Uehara, S.,Watanabe, Y.,Nakazawa, H.,Abdesselam, A.,Adachi, I.,Aihara, H.,Al Said, S.,Asner, D. M.,Atmacan, H.,Aulchenko, V.,Aushev, T.,Babu, V.,Badhrees, I.,Bakich, A. M.,Barberio, E.,Behe American Physical Society 2016 Physical Review D Vol.93 No.3

<P>We report a measurement of the differential cross section of pi(0) pair production in single-tag two-photon collisions, gamma*gamma -> pi(0) pi(0), in e(+) e(-) scattering. The cross section is measured for Q(2) up to 30 GeV2, where Q(2) is the negative of the invariant mass squared of the tagged photon, in the kinematic range 0.5 GeV < W < 2.1 GeV and vertical bar cos theta*vertical bar < 1.0 for the total energy and pion scattering angle, respectively, in the gamma*gamma center-of-mass system. The results are based on a data sample of 759 fb(-1) collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e(+) e(-) collider. The transition form factor of the f(0)(980) and that of the f(2)(1270) with the helicity-0, -1, and -2 components separately are measured for the first time and are compared with theoretical calculations.</P>

What Causes Conversion? : A Unificationst Appraisal of Sociological Theories on Conversion

Masuda, Yoshihiko Joshua 선문대학교 통일신학연구원 2002 통일신학연구 Vol.6 No.-

This paper reviews prominent sociological theories on conversion and appraise their significance from a Unificationist perspective. In the first section of this paper, we will discuss a demand-side theory of conversion. The demand-side theory focuses on contents of the individual demand for religion. We will review Charles Glock's relative deprivation theory as a representative of the demand-side theory of conversion. In the second section, we will discuss a supply-side theory of conversion. The supply-side theory focuses on the supply or availability of charismatic religious leaders and missionaries. We will discuss Gordon Melton's supply-side explanation on the rise of new religious movements in the United States as such a theory. Then, we will go on to discuss Rosabeth Moss Kanter's theory of commitment and its implications for conversion. After that, we will discuss John Lofland and Rodney Stark's conversion model. We will also present the meaning and implications of the term "socialization" and discuss conversion in terms of socialization. In the conclusion, we will appraise the implications of these sociological theories on conversion and briefly discuss what causes conversion to the Unification movement and how we can cause it. This paper concludes that, when the Blessed couples acquire genuine charisma and become charismatic representatives of the Rev. and Mrs. Sun Myung Moon, we can bring about a greater number of conversion to the Unification movement.

Institutions et persuasion dans la pensée politique de Rousseau

MASUDA Makoto(마수다 마코토) 프랑스학회 2013 프랑스학연구 Vol.63 No.-

루소 정치 이론의 진정한 혁신과 독창성은 사회제도 설립에 관련해서 그가 제시한 몇몇 개념이나 주장에서가 아니라 공동체 구성원들의 자발적 행동을 이끌어내는 구체적인 실천 방식을 강구하려했다는 점에 있다. 루소가 사회의 기원을 밝히고 제도의 원칙을 제시했다는 것이 사실이다. 그러나 그가 이에 못지않게 강조하고 탐구하고자 했던 것이 사회의 유지와 보존을 위한 통치 기술 및 구성원들의 결속을 강화하기 위한 도덕과 풍속의 기능에 있다는 점은 흔히 간과되어 왔다. 여기가 정치와 도덕, 이성과 감정, 법과 언어가 만나는 곳이다. 루소는 이러한 짝들 중 어느 하나 만으로는 사회가 세워질 수도, 유지될 수 없다고 보고, 이들 대립 항의 상보성을 끊임없이 강조했다. 루소에 따르면 시민들이 사회가 제시하는 원칙에 복종하기 위해서는 그보다 앞서 자신이 그 원칙의 원리이자 제정자가 되어야 한다. 그 원칙은 신이나 절대적인 힘을 갖춘 자에게서 나오는 것이 아니라, 사회를 구성하는 개인의 ‘마음 깊은 곳’에서 나온다. 이 원칙은 이성과 추론을 통해 추상화된 것이 아니라 개인의 감정과 정념이 발현되는 가운데 비로소 본래의 힘을 갖추게 되는 것이다. 따라서 사회 구성원들의 동의와 합의를 이끌어내는 힘은 사회 외부에서 오는 폭력과 강제에 있지 않고, 구성원들의 마음을 움직일 수 있는 웅변의 언어에서 찾아야 한다. 그 언어는 사회 구성원 모두가 갖고 태어난 양심의 목소리이며, 그 목소리는 사적 이익과 개별 의지가 침묵할 때 비로소 들리게 된다. 이런 점에서 루소의 정치 이론은 언어 이론과 짝을 맞춘다. 루소는 법과 양심, 정치적 권위와 도덕 감정이 각자 동등한 지위를 가지고 있음을 강조하면서 자신이 제시한 원칙에 대한 구체적 실천 방안을 끊임없이 강구하고자 한 것이다.

Preparation and Characterization of Monosized Germanium Particles by Pulsated Orifice Ejection Method

Masuda Satoshi,Takagi Kenta,Dong Wei,Kawasaki Akira 한국분말야금학회 2006 한국분말야금학회 학술대회논문집 Vol.2006 No.1

Monosized germanium micro particles are prepared by a newly developed Pulsated Orifice Ejection Method. The obtained particles are categorized into two kinds of the microstructures as refined and coarse ones. The morphological difference is estimated to be determined by the undercooling level during nucleation. Actually, the increase in the temperature of the melt was effective in coarsening the microstructure, because the temperature of the melt intensely relates to the undercooling level. The transition temperature of coarse and refined microstructures is found to be 1300-1350K. Furthermore, a triggered nucleation could improve the crystallinity of the particles in the short separation.

STABLE CLASS OF EQUIVARIANT ALGEBRAIC VECTOR BUNDLES OVER REPRESENTATIONS

Masuda, Mikiya Korean Mathematical Society 2002 대한수학회지 Vol.39 No.3

Let G be a reductive algebraic group and let B, F be G-modules. We denote by $VEC_{G}$ (B, F) the set of isomorphism classes in algebraic G-vector bundles over B with F as the fiber over the origin of B. Schwarz (or Karft-Schwarz) shows that $VEC_{G}$ (B, F) admits an abelian group structure when dim B∥G = 1. In this paper, we introduce a stable functor $VEC_{G}$ (B, $F^{\chi}$) and prove that it is an abelian group for any G-module B. We also show that this stable functor will have nice properties.
