One of the core policies recently implemented by the Korean government is the introduction of a creative economy, a concept that integrates ICT with the existing economic structure in order to create new growth factors and jobs. In June of 2013, the National Assembly passed a bill for the institutional practice of a creative economy. The concept of a creative economy is to integrate industries centered on ICT in order to form a new-concept industry paradigm that creates new values and services that exceed past industrial categories. In other words, smart convergence, which integrates ICT with various industries, is evaluated as a core factor for boosting the creative economy. Thus, based on the definition of 'smart convergence', this study predicted the economic effects and sociocultural changes that will ensue due to the future era of smart convergence. Also, this study proposes policies for enhancing the creative economy in various ways. More specifically, in-depth interviews with convergence industry experts were carried out and quantitative analyses were performed employing a Solow Model. Furthermore, as a means to revitalize the creative economy, this study underscores the significance of the preemptive institutionalization of legislations and suggests several policy proposals regarding smart convergence rooted in market supply and the demand chain, smart convergence through selective focus, and smart work. This study is differentiated from previous studies that have only focused in establishing theories in that it offers quantitative research with a consideration of the feasibility of proposed policies. The leading experience of Korea regarding smart convergence can provide important lessons to other countries that hope to promote a creative economy as a means to create new growth factors and jobs.

Techno-economic analyses on a 5-MW water electrolysis system for hydrogen production, operated in Jeju Island where the portion of renewable energy in the power grid is the highest in Korea, have been performed. The cost of hydrogen production and the economic feasibility of the hydrogen production system have been mainly analyzed based on the levelized-cost-of-hydrogen model. The effects of carbon emission trading and renewable power purchase method have been considered to reduce the cost of green hydrogen production in the case studies. This economic analysis model is expected to be used to derive a business model for green hydrogen production.

Economy of Communion (EoC) is an emerging economic principle that recognizes the dilemma of traditional perspectives and turns to human centered values and ideas. Furthermore the EoC encompasses all the principles derives from free market economy, ethical norm and social solidarity. This study aims to understand Economy of Communion concepts and its ripple effects under current Korean economy condition which mainly follows Neo-liberalism. Korean economy needs new paradigm to deal with intensifying economical inequality in Korea these days. By understanding EoC's primary value and studying research cases and Sungsimdang, Seokwangsa one of EoC enterprise cases in Korea, this study suggests new economic paradigm. In response to the needs, two important practices should be manifested through fraternity: 1) mutural equity, and 2) dissemination of giving culture. These are construct the economy of communion, which is defined as unique humanism. This study is also expected to suggest new paradigm that establishes new economy system that can cover current economy system's problems.

Various security threats, such as North Korea's nuclear tests and intercontinental ballistic missile developments, are becoming issues. Considering the current security situation in South Korea, proper selection of weapons and efficient defense acquisition systems are essential. In this paper, we conduct a survey and analysis of the defense core technology necessary for the development of weapons systems, and review whether current defense research and development is carried out efficiently. A theoretical study was conducted on ways to enhance the linkage between defense core technology and weapons systems development. As a result of the study, the necessity for development of weapons systems and the linking of defense core technology planning with the need for institutional improvement in enhanced utilization of defense core technology were derived. We propose a method for a long-term weapons systems concept plan that integrates defense core technology planning with forces planning and pre-project research programs to improve planning efficiency.

This study is to explore the characteristics of contemporary Chinese architecture from the aspects of the regionalism of environment, culture and technology. Six cases of contemporary Chinese architecture which won the world-wide famous were selected and analyzed. The results are the followings; First, the regionalism of environment emphasizes the building's response to the regional environment (topography, climate and regional landscape). Second, the regionalism of culture reflects as the relevance between architecture and community structure, economic patterns, folk customs and other social factors of the region. Third, the regionalism of technology requires the coordination of construction process, structure form, materials and other contents of architecture with the regional environment and culture, and emphasizes the suitability of technology. Environment, culture and technology determine that the regionalism of contemporary Chinese architecture is not purely the meaning at the formal level, but explores the underlying causes.

The development of IT increases the importance of understanding of IT-driven ecosystems. Platform business is the representative business model in the era of innovative IT-based businesses. However, it lacks the review research that entails ecosystem perspectives from traditional disciplines in which the perspective of ecosystem had been applied. Further most of platform research have focused on the comparison between ecosystems as a whole rather than exploration on complementors in the ecosystem who are selected and survive and, in turn, contributed to maintain the ecosystem to compete with other ecosystems. The current study listed highly cited papers from economics, sociological ecology, socio-technical ecology, organization studies, and marketing research which have cumulated research on ecosystems. And the three most critical features that determine the success of complementors, which are competition, relationality, and adaptability. Present study showed how the features were explained by each perspective from the different disciplines.

This study examines the approach of socio-technical systems and strategic niche management. It reviews the characteristics of that approach such as multi-level perspectives, the views on technology, and policy orientation. It applies the approach to the long-term vision making in science and technological innovation, socio-technical planning, participatory R&D, and science communication in Innovation policy areas and suggests some policy implications.

본고(本稿)는 산업별(産業別) 시장개방압력(市場開放壓力)과 대응(對應)의 양태(樣態)를 실증정치경제학적(實證政治經濟學的) 접근(接近)을 통해 분석함으로써 한미무역마찰(韓美貿易摩擦)에 대한 정책시사점을 도출하는 데 목적이 있다. 이론적 분석에 있어서는 우선 시장개방(市場開放)을 "국제공공재(國際公共財)"로 정의하고 이에 대한 수요와 공급구조를 정형화함으로써 이론적(理論的) 분석(分析)틀을 제시하였다. 시장개방수요(市場開放需要)는 상대국 시장에서의 기대이득(期待利得), 무임승차자(無賃乘車者)인 제(第)3국(國)에 비한 국제경쟁력 수준, 대정부(對政府) 로비의 강도(强度) 등의 정(正)의 함수(函數), 반면 시장개방의 공급은 시장개방에 따른 기대손실(期待損失)의 부(負)의 함수(函數), 시장개방에 대한 대정부(對政府) 반대(反對)로비 강도(强度)의 정(正)의 함수(函數)로 가설화하였다. 자료분석 결과는 대체로 이론모형(理論模型)의 시사점을 지지하는 것으로 나타났다. 한국의 국내보호율(國內保護率)이 높을수록, 미국내(美國內) 산업집중률(産業集中率), 기술집약도(技術集約度)가 높을수록 미국의 개방압력은 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 개방 후 미국의 시장점유율은 대부분 증가하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 분석결과는 시장개방의 수요결정요인(需要決定要因)이 상대적으로 공급결정요인(供給決定要因)을 압도하는 경향을 보여주었다. 본(本) 연구(硏究)의 주요 정책시사점으로서, 개방압력을 완화시키기 위해서는 시장개방에 따른 기대이득(期待利得)을 낮추고, 개방에 대한 반대를 약화시키기 위해서는 국내기업의 "렌트" 추구(追求) 유인을 사전에 제거할 필요성이 부각되었다.

표준특허란 표준문서의 규격을 기술적으로 구현하는 과정에서 필수적으로 적용해야 하는 특허로서, 최근 선진국은 "R&D-특허-표준화의 연계"를 강화하고 있고 글로벌 기업 또한 표준과 연계한 특허 획득에 주력하고 있다. 우리나라 또한 기술선점, 시장지배력 및 경제적 파급효과 등의 표준특허 확보의 중요성을 인식하고 있고, 정부와 정부부처의 산하 연구기관을 중심으로 표준특허 관련 법 제도 등의 관련연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 표준특허 분석결과만이 연구결과로 공개되고 있을 뿐, 실제로 표준특허 선별을 위한 정형화된 기법은 전무한 상태이며 분석방법론 관련연구 또한 매우 미미한 상태이다. 따라서 본 논문은 형태학적 특성에 기반을 두어 표준과 특허문서 간 유사도를 측정하고, 측정된 유사도를 분석하여 신뢰성 있게 표준특허를 선별하는 방법을 제안하고 그 적용사례를 분석한다.
