  • Homeownership and Public Pensions in East Asia: Is the Trade-Off Real

    Open Access•Inhoe Ku, Chung-Yang Yeh et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of East Asian Studies•2026

    This study examines whether homeownership has a trade-off relationship with public-pension development in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. Relying on a comparative historical approach, we find that while the three governments pursued homeownership societies, their interventions in housing provision and distribution varied in timing and intensity, contributing to different levels of homeownership. Historically, middle-class families in these countr…

  • The First Apocalypse of James in a Socio-Linguistic Perspective: Three Greek and Coptic Versions from Ancient Monastic Egypt

    Open Access•D W Kim•ARTICLE•Religions•2024•References: 22

    The discovery of the Nag Hammadi Codices (NHC) in 1945 rates as one of the two most profound occurrences for Biblical archaeology and interpretation during the last hundred years, along with the Dead Sea Scrolls (1946-1956). The codices allow us to document Christian monastic culture, gnostic Christianity and gnostic offshoots in the desert climate of Late Ancient Egypt. The recovery of the related Codex Tchacos (CT) brought further excitement fo…

    Open Access•D W Kim, Won‐il Bang•ARTICLE•International Review of Mission•2022

This study aims to fill the gap in the literature and examines the relationship among factors of residential stability on …
