Political trust is defined as the degree to which people perceive that government is producing outcomes consistent with their expectations. Political trust as a concept has endogenous as well as exogenous characteristics in that it can cause and be caused by other political factors. The purpose of this study is to introduce and evaluate various theoretical perspectives related to the causes and effects of political trust. With respect to its causes, this study focuses on the following five factors: government policies, unethical behaviors of politicians, citizens' penchant for participatory democracy, the public's misperceptions on government, and political culture. On the other hand, this study discusses the impacts of political trust on each stage of political process by paying attention to the following factors: government's governability, election outcomes, political recruitment, and the directions of government policies.

일본과 미국의 규제제도를 법제도적, 문화적 차이의 관점에서 비교하였다. 특히 일본이 정부정책의 결정으로 시장구조가 재편되는 과정이라면 미국은 정부와 각종 이해관계자 집단간의 투쟁의 산출로서 시장 구조가 성립되어 왔다는 사실을 알 수 있다.

Generally, policymakers have a tendency to target achieving individual policy goals rarely considering their effects as a whole. In addition, the conventional policymaking practice lacks considerations on the various needs of industry participants and their response to public policies. To address this issue, a system dynamics model as a simulation model-based approach, which can examine the effectiveness of public policies in a systematic manner, is presented with an application example of the Singaporean government's policies to enhance construction productivity. Using this simulation model, the governmental policies are tested in a qualitative manner. Having obtained policy implications from the model structure and simulation results, suggestions and guidelines are provided to make the governmental policies more effective. Finally, based on the research findings it is concluded that the simulation model-based approach could be useful for construction policymaking.

The purpose of this paper is to highlight the importance of conflict management by local government by explaining a peculiar case of Namyangju city's construction project of landfill site for incineration remnants. Policy stage and internal dynamics of conflict between city and opposition group of local residents are used as major tools of case observation. From this analysis, this study finds that the conflict management effort of local government is critical to bring a success of a public policy. The local government needs to assess possible sources of conflict, and to prepare reasonable solutions through sincere communication with local residents. Also we need to reconsider the concept of administrative efficiency. Sometimes "slow" is better than "fast". Authoritative and hasty policy process may face unexpected obstacles, then consume more time to fulfill the policy goals. It means that the local government needs to spend more time for policy formulation. It also shows the importance of democratic process in reaching a public policy decision. In conclusion, this study confirms that the cooperative relationship between local government and residents, so-called governance, is the key to the success of public policy.

The Government Informatization Policy Plan represents the government's technology policy vision and a set of ICT policy agenda and initiatives for the tenure of the government. The Policy Plan, however, normally produces an excess of disconcerted and superfluous ICT policy proposals from various policy units in the government. To cope with the superficiality of the ICT policy set in the Policy Plan, this paper proposes an analysis of the epistemology of the policy set. A policy is constructed as an argument and the structure of the policy argument is analysed using a model of argumentation. The findings show that the present informatization policy is driven by three epistemological motives - the production, consumption, and performance of the ICT Technology. The various assumptions and premises that underlie and direct the generation of ICT policy arguments with different motives are idenfied and then are exposed to strong rebuttal arguments to evaluate their epistemological tenability. The policy implications of the epistemological analysis are discussed in the end.

Korean shipping industry is ranked the fifth largest in the world in terms of deadweight tonnage after Greece, Japan, Germany and China with 55 million DWT as of year 2011, and its size of foreign exchange earning marked 30 billion US dollars. In respect of volume of seaborne trade, it has handled 99% of import and export cargoes. Korean shipping fleets have increased from 420 to 979 ships between year 2003 to year 2011. By reviewing through the relating literatures, it has been found that Shipping Funds under Ship Investment Company Act, and Tonnnage Tax System, worked as positive influences to increase the Korean shipping fleets. However, there is scant of research to examine the following two points: 1) weighing the decision making factors of ship investments for Korean shipping companies, and 2) weighing the influential factors of government shipping policies. In this respect, the aim of this study is to evaluate 8 decision making factors of ship investments for Korean shipping companies, and 8 influential factors of government shipping policies. For weighing the factors, the fuzzy methodology was adopted. As the results, for the side of decision making factors of ship investments, 'shipping market conditions and future prospects', 'ship's price and future prospects, and 'securing cargoes and future prospects' are ranked as top 3 factors. For government shipping policies side, 'shipping finance provided by lease companies', 'establishment of Korea Shipping Guarantee Fund', and 'establishment of Korea Shipping Finance Corporation' are verified as the important factors.

1980년대 하반기부터 한국(韓國)의 석탄산업(石炭産業)은 70년대말에서 80년대초까지와는 상이한 여건에 직면함으로써 구조적(構造的) 변화(變化)를 필요로 하고 있다. 이에 반하여 정부(政府)는 석탄정책(石炭政策)에 깊이 개입하면서도 경제여건변화(經濟與件變化)에 적절한 정책대응(政策對應)을 펴지 못하고 오히려 기업퇴출(企業退出)(exit)을 막고 산업합리화(産業合理化)를 저해함으로써 장기적으로 경제(經濟)의 효율성(效率性)을 떨어뜨리고 자원배분(資源配分)을 왜곡(歪曲)시키는 결과를 초래하였다. 본고(本稿)에서는 미래의 에너지파동(波動) 가능성(可能性)을 고려한 국내석탄정책(國內石炭政策)과 수입탄정책(輸入炭政策)에 대하여 논의하고, 개방경제하(開放經濟下)에서의 사회적(社會的) 마찰(摩擦)을 극소화하기 위한 석탄가격구조(石炭價格構造) 개선방안(改善方案)을 제시하였다. 분석결과(分析結果)에 따르면 현행(現行) 수입탄가격(輸入炭價格)은 오히려 국내탄질(國內炭質)의 저급화(低級化)를 유발시키는 저급화(低級化)를 유발시키는 왜곡현상(歪曲現象)을 초래 하고 있으므로, 앞으로는 국내탄가(國內炭價)를 석공원가기준(石公原價基準)에서 수입탄가(輸入炭價)를 기준으로 하는 결정방식으로 전환하고 수입탄가(輸入炭價)와 국내탄가(國內炭價)의 열량별(熱量別) 가격구조(價格構造)를 개선할 필요가 있다. 그리고 정부주도(政府主導)의 탄광통폐합(炭鑛統廢合)은 또다른 비효율성(非效率性)과 자원배분(資源配分)의 왜곡(歪曲)을 가져올 우려가 있으므로 가격정책(價格政策), 정부보조(政府補助) 등을 통한 간접통제방식(間接統制方式)으로 민간경제의 효율성을 유도하여 주는 것이 바람직하며, 또한 기업퇴출(企業退出)에 따른 탄광지역(炭鑛地域)의 경제활동(經濟活動) 위축(萎縮)과 실업문제(失業問題) 등에 사전적인 정책대응(政策對應) 필요하다.

This study analyzed the policy decision process of the International Science Business Belt (ISBB) applying multiple stream model combining Kingdon (2013) and Howlett et al. (2014) models. We looked at what socio-political factors influenced the process and sought to find ways to promote the project of ISBB and the policy of basic science in the future. As a concrete analysis, the policy decision process was divided into policy, policy formation, and implementation policy, and the streams of problem, process, policy and politics, policy window, and policy participant were used as variables. As a result of the analysis, the stream of politics and the role of the policy-entrepreneur played an important role in the policy decision process. Politicians and government officials were more involved than the scientists.

본 연구는 벤처캐피탈에 대한 정부의 간접출자가 창업초기단계 기업에 대한 투자를 장려하는지에 대해 논한다. 벤처캐피탈의 의사결정이 합리적 투자자의 관점을 취한다고 가정하고 정부의 자금투여가 이에 영향을 미치는 원리를 불확실성 완화효과, 정책유도 효과, 투자금의 규모의 경제효과, 정보비대칭성 완화효과, 자본비용 완화효과로 분해하여 이론적 고찰을 한다. 이론적 논의를 종합하여, 본 논문은 다음의 주장을 한다. 첫 째, 정부출자금의 규모가 벤처캐피탈의 창업초기단계 기업에 대한 투자를 증가시키는 효과를 가질 것이다. 둘 째, 창업초기단계에 대한 투자지침을 명시한 출자금을 유치한 벤처캐피탈의 창업초기단계 투자가 그러한 투자지침을 갖지 않는 출자금을 유치한 벤처캐피탈에 비해 클 것이다. 셋 째, 정부출자금의 창업초기단계 기업의 투자에 대한 규모효과는 일정 수준 이상이 되면 감소하여 역U의 형태를 보일 것이다. 본 연구는 2010년부터 2013년 사이 투자활동을 벌인 한국의 105개 벤처캐피탈사의 출자금 구성과 투자 내역자료를 활용하여 상기 주장의 유효성을 실증 조사하였다. 다중회귀분석을 포함한 다양한 통계적 검정의 결과 세 가지 주장을 모두 지지하는 일관된 결론을 얻었다. 본 연구는 벤처캐피탈의 투자행태 및 정책개입의 효과와 메커니즘에 대한 새로운 설명을 제시한다는 이론적 의의와 이에 대한 실증근거의 제시를 통해 벤처기업 및 벤처캐피탈 정책의 효과와 방향성에 대한 재검토의 기회를 제공한다는 실무적 의의를 갖는다.
