This article examines the legislation process of bioethics from 1997 to 2003 in Korea through three phases from a policy network point of view. In the first phase, assemblymen proposed laws concerning bioethics and various policy agenda were shaped. In the second phase, MOHW(Ministry of Health & Welfare) and MOST(Ministry of Science & Technology) introduced bills separately and policy conflicts were increasingly deepened. In the third phase, after groping for policy coordination a single bill based on MOHW's proposal was deliberated and enacted. During these processes, actors in policy network were more enlarged, conflicting interactions were dominated, and the structure of policy network was alternated by centralized form and distributed form.

이 논문은 제도적 관점에서 미국의 위성산업 사례를 통하여 복잡한 제품시스템(CoPS)의 공진화 과정을 살펴본다. 이는 공진화의 자세한 기술이라기보다는 그것의 주요 특징들을 이해하는 작업니다. 위성산업은 수출통제제도와 상호작용하며 국가안보와 산업경쟁력을 둘러싼 경쟁적인 입장들이 대립하는 상태에 있다. 역사적 제도주의와 행위자중심 제도주의 관점에서 미국 위성산업 사례를 분석해 보면, 냉전이후 미국의 위성산업과 제도의 경로는 지속적으로 산업경쟁력 지향 속에서 제도 도전자와 방어자들의 상호 대립적이면서도 타협적인 제도수정의 결과물이다. 결과적으로 국가안보의 제도 규칙은 변경되었으며, 이는 냉전이후 위성산업의 시장화의 경로를 다지는데 기여하였다.

This study is devised out of the recognition that the existing standardization-related research has not sufficiently examined the overall social environment where a standard is actually made and diffused and the roles of the actors and the changes in them in the complex social system where multiple stakeholders exist. Against this backdrop, this study purports to reconstruct the dynamic process of developing and standardizing an innovative technology through a socio-technical approach involved by multiple stakeholders with different interests in the context of a socio-technical institutional environment. The specific goals to achieve the purpose include first, inspecting the characteristics of the interactions between the human actors and between the human and non-human actors in the socio-technical network surrounding a standardization process. Second, the study aimed to observe the activities of the focal actor who led the standardization process and its changing role. To that end, it analyzed the dynamic features of the process of standardizing a HD 3DTV broadcasting technology that took place in South Korea based on the actor network theory. As for the analysis method, the researchers personally took part in the actor network involving the new technology to analyze the dynamic characteristics of the network, applying the qualitative research method of survey and in-depth interviews and exploring the overall dynamics of environment, behavior and technology observed over the course of the entire standardization process.

With Sales of bundling service in telecommunications service are on the increase due to continuous technology progress and the raised demand into convergence and integration service. In this paper, we analyzed the tendencies differences between subscriber and non-subscriber of the bundling service in telecommunications service to establish marketing strategies of the bundling service. we derived the subjective norm and personal innovation as tendency variables of users in using LTE(Long Term Evolution) services, which are based on bundling sales motivation theory, theory of reasoned action, and diffusion of innovation theory. The tendency variables were compared between subscriber and non-subscriber of the bundling service through statistical T-test in empirical study. As a result, we discovered that there are differences in both subjective norm and personal innovation between subscriber and non-subscriber of the bundling service. We also discovered that the subjective norm and the personal innovation of subscriber are stronger than non-subscriber. At last, we derived two implications to increase the sales of the bundling services. First, the bundling service should designed more innovative. Second, it would be effective to apply buzz marketing strategies based on the surrounding people.

Since the 1950s, many of the traditional industrial cities of advanced economies in Europe and North America were affected by a series of de-industrialization. The de-industrialization process, characterized by company shut-downs and massive lay-offs, has resulted in high unemployment rates and massive redundancies in physical infrastructure. Since the 1980s, many of the old industrial cities have attempted to overcome such problems. However, it has been found that not many of the cities are found to be successful. The City of Dortmund, one of the core cities of the large German industrial conurbation of the past, the Ruhr, is found to be an exceptional case demonstrating a clear success in overcoming deindustrialization problems. The City in fact strategically pursued transforming backbone of its economy from steel-making, coal-mining and beer-brewery to high-technology and future-oriented industries, based on microsystems, biomedical, electronic logistics and information technology. This paper attempts to analyse the processes and outcomes of transforming Dortmund beginning from the 1980s to articulate the roles of the agencies contributing to the success.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of economic uncertainty on business innovation. To this end, Ahir et al. (2018) World Uncertainty Index (WUI) is selected as a proxy for economic uncertainty, while total R&D investment (RD), capitalized R&D investment (RD_A), expensed R&D investment (RD_E), and the proportion of capitalized R&D investment to total R&D investment (RD_R) are selected as variables representing business innovation. The research findings showed that economic uncertainty (WUI) had a statistically significant positive (+) relationship with total research and development investment (RD), asset-based research and development investment (RD_A), and the proportion of asset-based research and development investment (RD_R). This relationship remained the same even after controlling for managerial opportunistic accounting behavior (DACC; discretionary accruals). These findings suggest that companies focus on research and development investment as an opportunity for management innovation even in the face of economic uncertainty. The results of this study are significant in demonstrating the validity and effectiveness of government support for industrial promotion under economic uncertainty.

This study applies policy network theory to examine the main policy actors and their relations in the green growth policy making process. Also the development of and changes in South Korean government's green growth strategy are analyzed. The results demonstrate that the president and the presidential council were the key players to introduce and to push green growth policy in a short time. Policy influence and key roles were concentrated on them. The development of green growth policy were initiated from the president's change in perceived problems and preferences. He set green growth policy on the government's top priority. These changes lead to another changes in strategies, rules, norms and resources within the network. As a result, the president-led green growth policy established new laws, environmental regulations and governmental structures to facilitate the policy implementation. Green growth policy, however, was almost stopped after new presidential election in 2013. Because new government has a different national agenda, the previous governmental agenda lost its status as national priority. In addition, this study shows that government-led green growth in Korea has policy consistency problem after administration was changed by presidential election. Former president-led green growth policy making under the situation of the lack of policy participation from the private sector led to discontinuities in policy after a presidential term was over.

The archives and records management 'reform' has spreaded out through the third quarter of 2004. There are many evidences such as the change of the Office of the President's management on the record production, 'the reforming road map for the final draft on the archives and records management.' This method spreads into the Cabinets. So it is improved these rosy conditions was upgraded by the laws and regulations. We also hope that the conditions of the records management to be a higher level than before. However the actual conditions of the records management are not good comparing with the law and regulations. I think this unbalance is a serious problem. The reason of the 'failed history' during past time was caused not by the laws itself but by the indifference and negligence on the laws. The academic field and NGO have continuously required some essential suggestions on that problem; political neutrality and independent of the National Archives, the employment of specialists and the improvement of their skills etc. But these requirements have not accepted yet. This revised records management law also has not applied to the road map wholly. Even though the outward growth during that time is remarkable, we need to learn some instructions by way of the 'failed history'. Therefore our urgent task is to narrow the gap between the new system and the actual conditions based on long and short term projects.

This paper analyzes the impact of the change in telecommunication regulation on network investment such as the integration of telecommunication service. The integration of telecommunication service plays a role of separating the behavior regulation from entrance regulation and reducing a entrance constraints. Therefore, it is expected that the market spill over effect is high through the improvement of behavior regulation such as interconnection regulation, facilities provisions, retail price regulation, bundling, number portability of VoIP. This paper discusses the critical factor affecting the decision making process in respect of the firm level and analyzes the impact path guiding investment and innovation. Finally, the paper proposes the guideline for telecommunications policy.
