The primary purpose of this study is to suggest the governmental strategies for enhancing the capacity of the culture technology industries. By reviewing the past relationships between the government and industry in the process of industrialization, we have arrived at some of the lessons about 'positive' or 'negative' effects on the relationships. The newly revised government and high-technology-based industry relations should be reformed in order to make the industries efficiently operated and competitive especially internationally. We have suggested a conceptual framework for the relationship by considering the policy community in consideration of the characteristics of the industries. The policy community is consisted of four dimensions. each of which, we considered were specifically, (1) research institutes for collecting data, market analysis, and gathering informations for the industries, (2) financial institutions, (3) professional groups for advising and sharing the technologies to the industries, and (4) education institutes for providing skilled personnels. Because these policy community does not effectively interrelate each other, we suggested that government should play pivotal roles in connecting these four dimensions of the policy community. The policy networking is necessary for the industries to be more effectively work together. The roles of government then provide some of the ways in which the policy community working interactively. By way of conclusion, we suggest some of the ways in which the government make the industries much more productive and competitive in the world markets.

Korea government has established clear cost estimation standard based on a survey of e-learning contents development cost and presented 'e-Learning Contents Development Cost Estimation Guidelines' that reflect the characteristics of the e-learning industry. However, if there is no institutional support, this guideline and system fails to achieve the purposes and objectives. And it is likely to be facing a dead document. Therefore, the policy foundation is required. This study suggested the following policy; stepwise activation of cost estimation standard, enact announcement and periodically adjustment of cost estimation standard, installation and operation of cost estimation standard operational committee, conjunction with the e-learning industry survey, cultural diffusion of co-owned copyright, systematic monitoring of the e-learning contents development process, research on activating policy of cost estimation standard, conjunction with the standard contract for enhancing policy effectiveness.

세계는 1990년대 중반 '정보화 혁명'에 이어 2000년대 중반 이후에는 '디지털 융합 혁명'이라는 새로운 물결에 직면해 있다. 디지털기술의 발전과 전송망의 광대역화에 따라 전통적으로 서로 다른 영역이었던 통신과 방송이 네트워크, 서비스, 단말기, 콘텐츠 차원에서 경계가 허물어지는 통신.방송 융합현상이 가속화되고 있다. 이에 따라 IPTV, DMB, 웹캐스팅, 데이터방송 등 기존의 통신과 방송의 속성을 모두 가진 서비스가 우리들의 실생활에 속속 등장하고 있다. 이러한 융합현상은 이용자에게는 새로운 융합서비스 이용을 통한 편익 증진뿐만 아니라 통신.방송 전반의 산업구조까지 근본적으로 변화시키고 국가 경쟁력을 높일 수 있는 좋은 기회가 될 것으로 보고 있다. 이미 세계 주요국은 IPTV서비스를 도입하고 있으나, 세계 최고의 정보통신 인프라를 보유하고 있는 우리나라는 안타깝게도 법제도 정비의 지연으로 아직 도입을 못하고 있다. 우리나라는 IPTV 도입뿐만 아니라, 디지털방송 활성화, 디지털콘텐츠 육성 등 풀어나가야 할 현안들이 산적해 있다. 또한 방송과 통신 전반에 걸쳐 정책과 규제체계를 융합환경에 맞추어 새롭게 설계해야 하는 과제도 있다. 이러한 과제를 순조롭게 해결하기 위해서는 우선적으로 정책과 규제기구를 융합환경에 맞게 개편하는 것이 시급하다. 이번호에서는 방송통신 융합의 주요 이슈 가운데 가장 시급하게 해결해야할 방송.통신 기구개편과 대표적인 방송통신융합서비스인 IPTV서비스 도입정책방안 그리고 방송통신융합법에 대해 전문가들의 특별기고를 통해 살펴보는 자리를 마련한다.

This study aims to diagnose the present condition of the Digital comics industry, including the "webtoon", which is receiving attention as the new Korean wave (Hallyu) cultural content, and explore ways to vitalize these contents. Considering the fact that the distribution rate of smart devices in Korea is the highest in the world as of June 2013, and that comics as contents have been known to show the easiest and fastest adaptation to changes in the media, the Digital comics industry is certainly an area with high expected growth, but its actual size of the industry shows a very low growth rate compared to other digital contents. This study analyzes the present condition of the Digital comics industry through theoretical and precedent study, and deducts 7 major factors that inhibit the growth of Digital comics industry by summing up the industry structure through making surveys of major businesses in the industry. Further, problems and possible solutions of the digital comics industry are discussed through in-depth interviews with total 10 digital comics industry experts. Building a ecosystem based charged service, realizing a total management system, government support and improvements on restrictions are discussed as solutions to a sustained growth of the Digital comics industry.

The paper presents and empirically tests a model of the digital contents(DC) innovation systems that enables us to study interactions between users, service providers, contents developers and network providers, and to examine the relationship between manufacturing innovation and service innovation as well as patterns of innovation in the DC industry. The framework of Gallouj and Weinstein(1997) and Gallouj(2002) is modified into the DC innovation model according to characteristics of the DC industry, that is, user involvement and network externalities. The model is applied to a case analysis that traces the growth of the online game industry in Korea since its introduction. The model offers several advantages over other approaches in understanding the dynamics in the DC industry. Most importantly, it provides a single unified basis within which both service innovation resulting from users and service providers and manufacturing innovation induced by contents developers, platform holders and network providers are analyzed. The distinction between service and manufacturing innovation is important in many ways, for instance in selecting proper government policy tools for promotion or regulation of the DC industry. Second, the Korean online game industry has experienced both radical innovation during the beginning period and non-radical innovation throughout the maturation period. The model developed herein helps to illustrate several types of non-radical innovations such as recombinative innovation that are crucial to sustainable development of the DC industry. Third, the model clarifies impacts of network externalities that are characteristics of the DC industry.
