This study examines the economic effects of a developed country's minimum quality standards (MQS) and mutual recognition agreements (MRAs) between countries. Based on the results of such analysis, it also considers the optimal MRA strategy for South Korea. For this purpose, the paper constructs a simple three-country model in which the representative firms in each country supply differentiated goods to the developed country market. The analysis results are as follows: First, the rise in the MQS of a developed country intensifies the competition level, reduces the profits of all firms, and raises the developed country's consumer surplus. In addition, if one of the firms exits the market due to the MQS, competition is relaxed, and the profits of the remaining firms increase. Second, countries subject to MQS can improve their social welfare through the MRAs; thus, it is essential to utilize them strategically. In the case of South Korea, the optimal situation is to have an MRA with the developed country or for all three countries not to have any MRA.

서비스에 대한 국제무역이 상당히 활발하다. 이것은 세계경제 자체가 옛날의 산업사회에서 고도산업사회로 넘어가고, 외국인 투자가 활발하게 이루어지고 있기 때문에 서비스에 관한 국가간의 거래에 대한 룰을 만들어서 물에 따라서 국제계획이 활발하게 되고 분쟁이 있는 경우에 일방적으로 한 국가가 독점하지 않고, 모든 국가가 의뢰할 수 있는 분쟁해결장치를 만들자는 의도를 가지고 시작된 것이 우루과이라운드 협상이었고, 그 가운데 서비스 협정이 만들어진 것이다.

우리 나라는 한-IAEA 보장조치 협정에 따라 핵물질 및 시설에 관련된 보장조치 정보들을 IAEA로 보고하고 유지할 의무를 갖고 있으며, 양국간 체결한 쌍무 협정에 따라 핵공급국이 요청할 경우 수입된 원자력관련 전략물자들에 대한 정보들은 관련정보들을 제공할 의무가 있다. 국제 약속에 따른 국가 보장조치 의무사항들을 이행하고, 점차 규모나 범위가 방대해지는 원자력 산업을 국가에서 효율적으로 통제 및 관리하기 위해 필요한 정보분석 등을 위하여 국가차원의 보장조치 정보관리시스템이 요구되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 국가 보장조치 정보관리시스템 구축을 위한 보장조치 정보분석, 고려사항 및 정보관리체제에 대하여 기술하였다.

A Certificate of Origin is used in international trade. It is a printed form, completed by the exporter or its agent and certified by an issuing body, attesting that the goods in a particular export shipment have been wholly produced, manufactured or processed in a particular country. FTA rules of origin in recent FTA agreement is a very complex procedure that requires international negotiations in the field has become the largest issues. Case of Korea-Chile FTA, starting with the origin criteria for each agreements is inconsistent due to differences between countries is an area that is not easy to negotiate. This study is covered in the agreement signed on the origin criteria for adequate review and comparison by item currently being pursued through the FTA was signed during the implications that can be applied to the agricultural sector has to offer.

What are the international aviation regimes? It is said that they are sets of principles, norms, rules, and decision-making procedures of international aviation around which aviation actors' (states-actors, intergovernmental aviation organization, international aviation conventions, airlines and their organizations etc.) expectations converge in a given aviation issue-area for the purposes of the human welfare and the operations of the stable civil aviation. In this regards, the purposes of this study are focused on the aviation actors' shifts. Chronologically, international aviation regimes have been developed by some stages as followings; The 1st stage is the period from 1944 Chicago Convention to 1978 US Deregulation Act, when the aviation regulations and rules within the international aviation relations were implemented by Chicago-Bermuda regimes as Christer Jonsson pointed out. In this first stage, the sovereignty for the airspace over their countries is absolute. The second stage is the period from 1978 to '1992 Open Skies Agreement' between US and Netherlands. In this regime, airlines' activities as well as state-actors' have been actuated. The third stage is the period from 1992 to the contemporary. In this stage, airlines' activities for the consumers such as 'Open Skies Agreements', 'e-commerce business', 'airspace open policy within EU area', 'service open policy of WTO', and 'airlines' strategic alliance' are the central focal points in the world aviation relationship. In the conclusion, this phenomenon of the core actors in the international aviation rules has been shifted from the states-actors to the non-states actors especially, operating airlines, or consuming customers. Finally, I' d like to suggest that international aviation regimes should be developed to promote and facilitate the globalized level for the people's movements among the global aviation society. That is the way to proceed to the welfare and peace for all human beings of the World.

The primary purpose of this study is to analyze the impact and determinants of bilateral Free Trade Agreements on international total bulk shipment trade volume at the port of Korea using the Panel Gravity Model. The model estimates the aggregated panel data of exports and imports (excluding transshipment) as a dependent variable during the period from 1996 to 2015. GDP, GDP per capita, distances between bilateral countries, and FTA dummies are included as independent variables. And the economic integration of FTAs including ASEAN+3 and NAFTA3 countries were used as dummy variables. Study results show that GDP and GDP per capita have positive impacts on bulk shipment trade volume at the port of Korea. In addition, Korea's bilateral FTAs with Singapore, India and the United States have positive effects on total bulk trade volume in Korea. This is the so called trade creation effect. On the other hand, ASEAN+3 and NAFTA have negative effects on the total bulk trade. This is the so called trade diversion effect. Also, the distance between Korea and its trade partners has a negative impact. These findings provide insights for: further academic research, site operators who work in related trade and maritime sectors, and policy makers engaged in port and maritime operations. The results can be used to develop strategies for maximizing bulk port throughput.

This study aimed to improve the understanding of the qualification recognition system between Korea and Russia and to provide a way to help in the conclusion of the agreement on the qualification recognition in higher education through discussing related issues. To this end, we examined the recognition of academic qualifications in Korea and Russia, analyzed the status of mutual recognition of qualifications in higher education, and finally pointed out the issues raised and suggested ways to improve them. In the discussion of the qualification agreement, the issues are: first, whether the level of the agreement should be an intergovernmental agreement or an inter-institutional arrangement; Second, what is the scope of the agreement, and, third, with regard to the question of universality of the application of mutual recognition, whether this agreement can be universally applied to all Russian federal entities at the conclusion of the agreement. This study suggested that the mutual recognition agreement be concluded at a comprehensive and general level, and the qualification should be limited to academic qualifications, and the universality of the mutual agreement should be specified. Based on the results of this study, we proposed the necessity of regular and continuous discussions between the experts and government officials of the two countries in order to establish the system of the mutual recognition agreement and implementation process between Korea and Russia.
