시대의 흐름에 따라 창업자본주의(entrepreneurial capitalism)의 경향을 보이고 있는 현대사회에서 혁신적인 아이디어와 도전정신을 바탕으로 글로벌 진출을 도모하는 소규모 기업 또는 개인 창업자의 역동적인 창업활동은 창업생태계(Entrepreneurial Ecosystem)에서 새로운 성장 동력 창출로 이어진다. 이러한 창업에 대하여 대학에서 창출된 기업들은 다른 기업들보다 훨씬 높은 성공률을 보이며, 좋은 일자리를 만들고 경제활동을 촉진한다. 이에 따라 우리나라 정부에서도 대학 창업을 촉진하기 위한 노력으로 "대학창업교육 5개년 계획(2013-2017)"과 "2015년도 정부 창업지원 효율화 방안", 그리고 "산학협력 활성화 5개년 기본계획(2016-2020)" 등을 발표하였고, 대학과 연구소 등에서도 대학 창업 활성화에 대한 많은 노력을 기울이고 있지만 여전히 현실적인 한계가 존재한다. 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위한 방안으로 본 연구에서는 대학 창업교육의 체계화를 목적으로 변화하는 대학의 역할과 클러스터(cluster), 그리고 창업교육에 대한 이론을 고찰한다. 또한, 미국 혁신대학의 대표적 사례를 중심으로 창의적인 대학문화의 요인을 살펴보고, '창업 성공'과는 다른 '성공적인 창업'을 목적으로 클러스터 관점의 창업교육에 대한 개념적 프레임워크를 제시하고자 한다. 대학 기술기반의 창업 활성화를 위한 통합적 창업교육 플랫폼 구축의 기조(基調)가 되는 클러스터 관점의 창업교육에 대한 개념적 프레임워크는 관련 이론과 사례를 바탕으로 창의적 문화 구축과 효과적인 혁신 창출에 필요한 인재, 기술, 관용이라는 세 가지 요소의 역할이 중심이 되어 창업교육에 수반되어야 할 지역의 창업자원, 창업정책, 그리고 리더십의 클러스터링을 강조하고 있다. 이를 바탕으로 향후 후속연구에서는 통합적 창업교육 플랫폼 차원에서 창업보육센터, 기술지주회사, 기술사업화센터, 창업지원단 등과 같은 대학 내에 존재하는 대표적인 창업활동 주체(조직) 간 효과적인 협력체계 구축과 함께 성공적인 창업을 위한 실행 가능한 방안을 모색해야 할 것이다.

This paper aims to provide a conceptual framework to see the special zones in East Asia in relation to the territorialities of the state. For this, it will introduce Aihwa Ong's notion of 'spaces of exception', and provide some critical discussions on it. Unlike Ong, I do not see the spaces of exception as an outcome of neoliberal changes of the state. Instead, I propose to see the special zones in terms of the internal limitations of the modern state territoriality. In particular, I try to theorize the special zones in relation to the dialectics of the contradictory relations between mobility and fixity inherent in the territoriality of the modern nation state. In addition, it will be suggested to see special zones as an essential part of the spatiality of the East Asian developmental states, given the spatio-temporal contexts of the East Asian capitalist development. On the basis of these theoretical discussions, this paper will divide the special zones that have been developed in East Asia since the 1960s into 3 different types, including 1) developmentalist special zones, 2) neo-liberal special zones, and 3) special zones for transition, and discuss their characteristics.

우리가 어떠한 상황에서 불안해진다는 것은 다가올 미래에 대해 확실하게 준비할 수 없다는 사실에 근거합니다. 수많은 선각자와 학자들은 모두들 이러한 불확실성으로 인한 위험 요소들을 확실하게 밝히고자하며 이로 인해 우리로 하여금 더욱 과학적으로 상황을 대처하고 극복하게 하려 합니다. 아시아 지역의 호텔관광시장에 대해 이곳에서 논의되는 것은 과거와 현재 그리고 미래를 넘나들며 현재 이 시장에서 벌어지는 새로운 경향을 파악하고 파악된 자료를 통해 도전과 위험요소를 인지케하는 내용들입니다. 과거는 현재의 원인이 될 수 있고 과거의 흔적은 내일의 같은 형태의 현상이 될 수 있다고 보기에 우리는 미래의 시장을 예측하려 할 때 과거를 검증하고 현재를 숙독해야 하는 것입니다. 과거 속에서 우리는 한때 우리 시장의 고객들이 사회적 성공의 표시로 여행을 즐겼으며, 그것이 전쟁 등과 같은 힘든 시절을 보내면서 휴식과 교육을 목표로 여행을 즐기던 시절이 있었고, 이것이 다시 최근에 들어 고객들의 자기충족과 자아실현의 방법으로 여행을 즐기고 있음을 감지할 수 있습니다. 이러한 경향들의 연장선상에서 우리의 호텔시장은 호텔이 고도로 품격화된 개인적인 서비스를 제공하게 될 것이고, 발달된 정보기술력으로 인해 편리하게 자산관리를 할 수 있고, 쉽게 접근이 가능한 투자자본으로 인해 소유주의 형태가 다국적으로 다각화되는 결과를 낳게 될 것이고, 수많은 패턴들이 존재하지만 기술력의 혁신으로 인해 이를 통한 새로운 상품과 서비스의 개발이 가장 두드러지는 시장이 될 것이 분명합니다. 관광시장에서는 크게 두 영역으로 분리해서 본다면, 하나는 새로운 형태의 고객이고 또 하나는 관광이란 것이 거리를 요하는 것이기에 이를 극복하고자 하는 기술력을 동원한 새로운 형태의 관광체험이라 할 수 있습니다. 새로운 형태의 고객은 보다 자유롭고 의사표현이 열려있는 고객이며 이들은 각자의 자아실현과 충족을 위해 끊임없이 새로운 여행 목적지를 찾는 고객이며, 복잡하지 않고 단순한 형태의 상품과 서비스를 요하며 그들은 또한 시작에서 마무리까지 완성된 서비스를 추구하는 고객이 될 것입니다. 거리를 초월하는 기술력의 발달로 고객은 원거리에서 자기자신의 여행 진행 전부를 쉽게 컨트롤 할 수 있게 되고 특히 가상 현실실현에 대한 기술력은 멀리서도 원거리의 여행 체험을 실제와 버금가게, 그리고 현실에서 겪어야 하는 일체의 장애 없이 체득할 수 있게되는 상황을 고객 앞에 내놓게 될 것입니다. 우리는 지금 새로이 중흥하려 노력하는 아시아의 주요 국가의 호텔관광산업을 의미 있게 짚어보고 내일을 함께 준비하고 있습니다. 여기에 논의되어진 이슈가 아니더라도 우리는 그것들을 새로운 시각에서 검증하고 분석하여 새로이 전개되는 미래의 아시아 호텔관광산업을 함께 준비해야 할 줄 믿습니다.

Urban sprawl has been criticized due to its negative effects, including the encroachment of farmland and open spaces, the increase in traffic congestion and air pollution, the decline of central city, the decrease in social capital, and the unfairness of tax burdens on infrastructure and public services. This study measures urban sprawl in the capital region of South Korea where the characteristics of urban sprawl have been known to be different from those identified in the U.S. metropolitan areas. In particular, the study examines whether the capital region has experienced the decline of the central city with an expansion of low density residential development in suburban areas. Three measurements, the sprawl index with population density, the ratio of changes in urbanized areas to changes in population, and the population density gradient, were employed to measure urban sprawl, and GIS mapping and descriptive analysis were used to examine the central city decline and the characteristics of development patterns in suburban areas. The results show that the capital region of South Korea is moving to the American style sprawled development with the decline of the central city and an increase of single detached homes in suburban areas, implying that policy makers need to develop growth management strategies to prevent urban sprawl and its negative effects that many U.S. metropolitan areas have suffered from.

The purpose of this study is to review the relationship between corporate entrepreneurship and performance, and the moderating effect of CEO's transformational leadership in entrepreneurs'cooperative. In order to verify and achieve the purposes mentioned above, questionnaire data were gathered and analysed from 215 employees of entrepreneurs'cooperative in Metropolitan and kangwon-do vicinity. Multiple regression and multiple hierarchical regression analysis were applied to test the proposed hypotheses: 1) the relationship between corporate entrepreneurship(innovativeness, risk-taking, and proactiveness) and performance(sales volume, profit, employment), 2) the moderating effect of CEO's transformational leadership(charisma, individual consideration, intellectual stimulation) on the relationship between corporate entrepreneurship and performance. Empirical survey's findings are as follows; First, risk-taking appeared to be positively related with sales volume, profit, and employment. Proactiveness appeared to be positively related with sales volume and profit. But innovativeness appeared not to be significantly related with sales volume, profit, and employment. Second, CEO's transformational leadership appeared to be related with financial performance(sales volume and profit), but not to be related with employment. Charisma and individual consideration moderated positively the relationship between corporate entrepreneurship and financial performance(sales volume and profit). Intellectual stimulation moderated positively only the relationship between corporate entrepreneurship and profit.

The main purpose of this study is to analyse and explain the occupational pattems of Korean immigrants in Auckland, New Zealand, in order to understand how they are adapting to New Zealand society. We analysed the Korean telephone directory from 1992 to 1996 and listings of Korean businesses in the biweekly magazine 'Korea Town'. The bulk of Korean immigration started in 1991 when the New Zealand govemment opened up its immigration doors to non-Europeans. Clearly, recent Korean immigration has experienced exponential growth. The range of Korean's occupations has grown gradually compared to the growth of Korean immigration, from about 20 different kinds of occupations in 1992 to 55 in 1997. In 1992, there were only 37 korean businesses listed, but in 1997, there are about 636-a growth of over 1,600${\%}$. As we analysed all Korean businesses, we found that almost all Korean businesses and occupations have not penetrated the host society economy but reflect typical characteristics of ethnic businesses, in tems of capital, business operation, employees and customers being mainly Korean, Korean businesses are concentrated in the City Centre and North Shore. The concentration in North Shore reflects the concentration of Korean residents in this area, while Korean businesses in the City centre are mostly tourist industries(travel agencies, souvenir shops)and restaurants. The findings of this study closely reflect similar Westem studies on ethnic minority businesses. From this, we can conclude that Korean businesses at the moment reflect the initial stage of Korean communities in New Zealand.

By comparing to Chinese American banks, this research shows the uniqueness of Korean American banks. This article argues that instead of the cultural attributes and/or informal financial institutions, formal financial institutions, such as the ethnic banks studied here, are responsible for the business success of Asians abroad. However, ethnic banks have different development trajectories depending on their respective ethnic communities. Korean American banks are notably different from Chinese American banks in terms of growth, profitability, and banking strategies. Although both ethnic banks exercise relationship banking strategies in their loan portfolios, their deposit compositions are very different and cause significant differences in financial performance. The focus on business loans and high rates of non-interest deposits allow for higher growth rates in Korean American banks. Therefore, relationship banking does not adequately explain the differences of ethnic banks. This research attempts to understand the underlying factors in choosing banking strategies by mainly focusing on the unique examples found in Korean and Chinese immigrant societies. For Chinese Americans, the heterogeneity of their population composition and foreign influence dominate their bank structures. On the other hand, Korean American homogeneity and business orientation are distinctly different. The influence of Korean capital is not significant when compared to overseas Chinese capital.

This article aims to explain how Gangnam, as a model and standard of compressed urbanization in South Korea, was created. Gangnam and Gangnam-style urbanization need attention not only because they contrast with Korea's urbanization in the past as well as urbanization in the West but also they provide an important model in contemporary Korea's politics, economy and culture. However, there are little studies of how Gangnam's peculiar urbanism was created. To fill this gap, this article will first capture Gangnam's peculiar urbanism as a material landscape and sociocultural lifestyle. Gangnam-style urbanism is (a) materially characterized by high-rise apartment complexes owned by the middle and upper class for dwelling and asset growth and (b) socio-culturally characterized by political conservatism, public indifference, competition over academic performance, appearance, and fashion, and nightlife. Then it will show Gangnam's archetype was created in a spatially and temporally compressed way in and through the spatial selectivity of Korean anti-communist authoritarian developmental state strategies: (1) anti-communism led to the diffusion and accommodation of the population through apartments in Gangnam in the context of its confrontation with North Korea and the fast-growing population of Seoul; (2) military authoritarianism excluded the low-income class and the urban poor from urban development; and (3) the developmental state adopted selective housing policy which treated construction companies and the middle class preferentially through exceptional zoning and price distortions, promoting the construction of apartment in Gangnam and its resultant uneven development.
