본 자료에서는 1998년과 2017년의 수출유사도지수 변화를 파악함으로써 북한의 수출상품이 어떠한 소득수준의 국가와 유사한지 알아보았다. 1998년 수출유사도지수는 한국, 홍콩, 태국, 중국, 일본 순으로 높았으며 2017년에는 미얀마, 모로코, 튀니지, 방글라데시, 스리랑카 순으로 높은 것으로 나타났다. 단편적인 비교일 수 있으나, 1998년 북한의 수출 품목은 한국과 2017년에는 미얀마와 가장 유사하다고 해석 가능하다. 이어서 1998년과 2017년 북한의 수출품목의 비중변화를 관찰한 결과 광물성연료(HS 27)의 수출비중이 가장 크게 증가하였으며, 의류(HS 62), 광·슬래그·회(HS 26), 과실(HS 08), 의류(HS 61)가 뒤를 이었다. 반대로 2017년 1998년에 비해 수출비중이 가장 크게 감소한 품목으로는 전기기기(HS 85), 원자로·기계류(HS 84), 식물(HS 12), 플라스틱과 제품(HS 39), 인조스테이플 섬유(HS 55)이다. 비교분석을 위해 북한과 수출유사도지수가 가장 높은 10개 국가의 수출품목 비중 변화 역시 살펴보았는데, 자세한 품목의 비중변화는 부록의 <부표 1~10>에서 확인할 수 있다. 1998년과 2017년 각각 수출유사도지수가 가장 높았던 한국과 미얀마의 수출품목 변화는 특히 주목할 만하다. 전기기기(HS 85)의 수출이 한국에서는 가장 크게 증가한 반면, 북한에서는 가장 크게 수출이 감소한 상품이었으며, 미얀마의 경우 광물성연료(HS 27), 의류(HS 62), 광·슬래그(HS 26)의 수출이 증가한 것으로 드러난다.

섬유·의류산업은 제조업 대비 업체수가 18.2%, 고용이 15.2%에 이르는 국민경제에서 매우 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있는 산업이다. 또한, 전체수출액대비 10.7%를 차지하며 지난 30여년간 수출전략산업으로 성장, 발전하여 왔다. 그러나 섬유·의류산업은 오늘날의 급격히 변화하고 있는 국내외 기업환경의 변화로 극심한 내수부진과 고질적인 재고부담에 따른 자금난 등으로 허덕이고 있다. 이렇듯 급속히 변모한 기업경영 환경속에서 섬유·의류산업은 생존을 위한 현실적 방도를 모색하지 않으면 안되게 되었다.(중략)

This article explores the international trade flow of Bangladesh's ready-made garments (RMG). We first suggest the brief history and an international structure of trade among countries by using the trade volume. Then we implemented a gravity model regression with the sample of 38 major partner countries in order to investigate the potential export market for the RMG industry. The fixed effect and random effect model for the panel data during the period of 1990 to 2011 are estimated. Our result shows that Bangladesh's RMG exports are affected positively by the size of economy, inflation, exchange rate, foreign direct investment(FDI) and trade openness. On the other hand, the distance between trading partners are related negatively with the trade volume. We used the estimated coefficients from the panel regression in order to predict RMG export potential of Bangladesh. This might show which country is the promising export market for Bangladesh RMG industry. We found that Bangladesh has the highest potential of RMG export with Japan and USA, which seem to have considerable room for export growth if trade barriers and constraints are removed. We added some policy implications for encouraging the RMG export of Bangladesh by using the results from the analysis.

The objective of the study is to review trends of clothing export in important countries of the world and thus to know the present stage of clothing export in Korea. For the purpose, changes of export amount, competitiveness and product life cycle were analysed in the countries from the 1960's to the 1990's. The results are as following: First, on the aspect of export amount, industrialized countries lost the lead to newly industrializing countries from the 1960's. Developing countries, as China, win the lead. Second, on the competitiveness aspect, industrialized countries lost competitiveness to newly industrializing countries before the 1960's. And newly industrializing countries were outpaced by China in the export competitiveness from the early 1990's. Third, on the aspect of product life cycle, industrialized countries go first through each period of product life cycle, introduction, growth, maturity and decline, and they all, excluding Japan, sustained period of Maturity for a long time. newly industrializing countries and developing countries go orderly through each period of product life cycle after industrialized countries. As to Korea, duration of each period was short. Specially characteristics of decline period appeared partly in the early 1990's. From the results, the theory of product life cycle, helping to explain changes in production and trade in new product lines, estimated to applicable to clothing export. The phenomena, Italy, Hong Kong and America sustain high competitiveness in the world clothing market for a long time, is needed to be studied carefully. The study about strong points in their clothing industries and competitiveness drive program be to influence Korean export policy in the future.

Between 1980 and 1997 the Korean textile and clothing industry (KTCI) experienced the transformation of export-led accumulation regime rooted in domestically-derived price competitiveness into the combination between foreign mass production involving the geographical extension of productive forces and quality strategy based on upgrading technology and automation involved in the domestic market for high quality and price products. This restructuring of the KTCI is rooted at the crisis in the export-led growth regime implemented unity 1980 due to the rapid increase in wage levels by the ‘great labour movement’occurred in 1987. In particular, increased wage and collective bargaining realized through labour empowerment led to the crisis in the conjoin between mass production and mass export based on long working hours and low wage structure. The aim of this paper is to explore the transformation of development modes between 1980 and 1997 that can help us in understanding the fundamental reasons for the restructuring of the KTCI. To this end, the paper identifiles the changing accumulation regimes between 1980 and 1997 mediated by wage-labour relations, inter-firm relations and state-film relations, which are insitutional forms of the modes of regulation.

Clothing exports of Korea has grown rapidly till the latter half of the 1980's, contributing Korean economic development. However from the 1990's, the amount, the world market share and the international competitiveness of clothing exports have declined. Based on these phenomena, the purpose of this study was to identify the characteristics of export articles in Korean Clothing Trade focused on the 1990's. Statistical data of clothing articles(SITC 84 : Articles of apparel & clothing accessories) were used. The relative importance, trade orientation tendency and unit price of each export clothing articles were analyzed. The results of the study were as follows. On the relative importance, trade orientation tendency and unit price of each export clothing articles, outer garments or products that required complicated production process(e.g., coats, suits, ensembles, jackets, dress) had been decreased in the portion and weakened in the export orientation tendency. But one item in a set or casual wear like trousers, skirts, blouses, shirts, Jerseys, pullovers, T-shirts has been increased in the portion and risen in the unit price. These trends means that clothing exports of Korea were more focused on those category and the international competitiveness on those articles were advanced. From these results, this study can be contributed to establish the concrete clothing export articles strategies of Korean firms.
