As luxury goods market has expanded and has become more affordable, luxury consumption value has become more diversified. The purpose of this study is to classify visible characteristics of luxury consumption by the degree of logo clarity, and to explain this classification in relation to personal luxury consumption values. Also, the study utilized the concept of cultural capital, in addition to the concept of economic capital, in order to aid understanding of current new luxury consumption trend and give directions on brand signal strategies for luxury brands. In order to develop a survey that could measure an individual's cultural capital, focus group interviews, each composed of 5 women in their twenties and thirties, were conducted. Then, the survey was conducted on 230 females residing in Seoul who have purchased at least one product from a luxury brand within a year. The results suggest that luxury consumption can be explained by 'self-oriented value' and 'others-oriented value' as suggested in precedent studies. However, no significant difference was found between economic capital and these two luxury consumption values. However, the more cultural capital one possesses, the more one is likely to pursue 'self-oriented consumption value'. In studying the correlation between luxury consumption values and preference for brand signal clarity, respondents with 'self-oriented consumption value' has shown low preference towards highly visible brand logo when design and quality were equivalent. Also, respondents with 'other-oriented consumption value' has shown high preference towards highly visible brand logo.

이 연구는 문화자본과 문화소비 행위의 연관성을 보았던 기존 연구에서의 '문화소비' 개념이 오늘날에도 타당한가 하는 문제의식으로 시작되었다. 디지털미디어가 등장한 후 문화소비자들은 단순히 '소비' 라고 지칭하기 어려운 다양한 행위들에 참여한다. 이렇게 다변화된 문화소비의 양상들을 다루기 위해서, 기존의 분석틀, 즉 무엇을 선호하거나 관람하였는가(노출되었는가)라는 문제 중심으로 구성된 '문화소비' 개념을 수정할 필요가 있다고 보았다. 우리는 문화소비에 있어 '무엇'보다는 '어떻게' 라는 측면에서 나타나는 차이를 보기 위해, 공연관람뿐 아니라 공연 정보를 읽는 행위인 정보소비, 공연 후기를 쓰는 정보생산, 실기학습 및 참여행위인 아마추어 생산, 그리고 동호회 활동인 교류 등을 이론적으로 검토하고 문화자본인 학력과 청소년기 문화경험과 문예교육이 미치는 효과를 비교하였다. 음악장르 소비에대한 설문 자료를 분석한 결과, 학력은 공연관람에서만 효과가 나타난 반면, 청소년기 문화경험과 문예 교육은 공연관람 뿐 아니라 문화소비 전반에 있어 영향력이 나타난다. 구체적으로, 청소년기 문화경험은 정보소비와 정보생산에서, 문예교육은 아마추어 생산에서 효과가 크게 나타난다. 한편 소득은 공연 관람에서만 효과를 보인다. 연구의 결과, 청소년기 문화경험은 공연관람에서보다는 관련 읽기와 쓰기에서, 문예교육은 아마추어 생산에서 영향력이 보다 크게 나타나므로 문화자본에 따라 문화소비 취향이 구별되는 차원을 관련 커뮤니케이션 행위 및 아마추어 생산 활동까지도 포함하여 생각할 필요가 있다는 함의를 갖는다.

Recently, as carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions have increased overall and contributed to air pollution, and awareness of environmental degradation has grown. This study examines the impacts and causalities of economic globalization, economic growth, energy consumption, and capital formation on CO₂ emissions in China over the period 1971-2014. The vector error correction model (VECM) and Granger causality test on time-series data are employed to observe the interactions between CO₂ emission, economic globalization, and various economic factors, including economic growth, energy consumption, and capital formation, since China's early stage of globalization. The empirical results indicate the existence of bidirectional causalities from economic growth, gross capital formation, economic globalization, and CO₂ emission to energy consumption, and bidirectional casualty from energy consumption to CO₂ emission relationships in the short run. The findings of this study suggest that indirect bidirectional causalities from economic growth, economic globalization, and capital formation to CO₂ emission through energy consumption are observed. Moreover, economic globalization accelerates CO₂ emission in the short run but decreases it in the long run. To reduce CO₂ emissions, and to ensure sustainable economic growth and economic globalization progress, some crucial energy-saving and energy-efficiency policies, regulatory rules, and laws are recommended.

본 연구는 한국인의 소비에 영향을 미치는 문화변수로서 체면 민감성과 빠른 속도로 발전하는 SNS 상의 사회적 자본을 중심으로 윤리적 소비에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 최근 6개월간 SNS를 사용한 경험이 있는 성인 313명을 대상으로 온라인 서베이를 실시하고, 수집된 자료를 기반으로 위계적 회귀분석을 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 형식의식성 체면은 윤리적 소비에 정적인 영향을, 반대로 창피의식성 체면은 부적 영향을 미쳤으며, 높은 연결적 사회자본이 윤리적 소비에 긍정적으로 작용하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 트위터 이용자들이 인스타그램 이용자들에 비해 윤리적 소비 지수가 더 높았다. 본 연구는 체면 민감성과 윤리적 소비 간의 관계를 실증적으로 탐색한 첫 연구로서, 문화심리적 변수로서 체면 민감성이 윤리적 소비에 유의미한 영향변수일 수 있다는 가능성을 발견했다는 점에서 학문적 의의가 있다.

1990년대 중반이후 한국의 문화산업콘텐츠 수출이 증대되는 "한류" 현상이 대두되어 세계적인 주목을 받기 시작하였다. 그러나 전통적인 문화산업 무역이론은 이러한 후발국으로부터 문화상품의 수출을 설명하지 못한다. 본 연구에서는 Becker의 소비자본이 기호의 형성에 기여할 뿐만 아니라 생산성의 향상에 기여하는 인적자본으로서의 속성을 지니고 있다는 점을 이용하여 문화산업에서 후발국의 "기술추격"을 합리화하는 이론모델을 제시하고 있다(rationalize), 본 연구는 공식모델의 비교정태 분석을 통하여 문화산업에서 후발국의 "기술추격"을 가능하게 하는 조건들을 설명하고 있다.

This research (1) examines the effect of stock ownership structure on capital structure; (2) explains the effect of stock ownership structure on corporate value; and (3) investigates the influence of capital structure on corporate value. This research is categorized as a quantitative research, which is directed to test various theories. In this study, the population of all consumption companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) consist of 38 companies. Population data in this study are all consumption companies, which have gone public in the period from 2010 to 2015. In this study, given the objectives and problem formulation and hypothesis, the analysis method used is Generalized Structural Component Analysis (GSCA). Ownership structure has a significant effect on capital structure; ownership structure has no significant effect on corporate value; capital structure has a significant effect on corporate value; corporate value has a significant effect on capital structure. Previous research found different results. Some researchers found a positive relationship and other researchers found a negative relationship, and there are studies that found both significant and non-significant effects. The inconsistency of previous research results prompted the researchers to examine the effect of ownership structure on capital structure and corporate value.

This study examines the human capital, economic capital, and psychological factors that influence social participation among the elderly in the future. The data, 'Survey on the Elderly in 2014', were collected from 'The Ministry of Health & Welfare' and the 'Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs'. The samples included 10,279 elderly people who were over 65 years of age. Multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the research model. The findings are as follows. First, the highest participation awareness level of all was for the hobbies and leisure activities, and the lowest participation awareness level was for volunteer activities. Second, human capital factors such as age, education level, and health status, and economic capital factors such as household consumption expenditure and standard of living signigicant affected social participation awareness among the elderly. Psychological factors such as self-esteem, depression, and the subjective age of becoming elderly, also affected the social participation awareness. Third, awareness differed by sex. In particular, age and depression were restrictions of social participation awareness that were more common among elderly women than among elderly men, although single women were more likely to participate in religious, learning, and hobby and leisure activities. In contrast, chronic diseases and household consumption expenditures were more restrictive of social participation awareness among elderly men compared to elderly women. These results show that human capital, economic capital, and psychological factors heavily influence the social participation awareness of the elderly, although the degree of influence of these factors differs by sex.

Purpose - The paper analyzes basic indicators characterizing the volume of energy sector activity in the Russian Federation, Privolzhsky Federal district, Republic of Tatarstan. Research design, data, and methodology - The study analyzed data from the Privolzhsky Federal district, specifically, industrial production volume, electricity production, energy consumption, energy-balance data, capital investments, and capital investment structure. An array of data has been investigated in recent years. The dataset's dynamics were analyzed in 1998. Fixed capital investment dynamics were studied in 1946 the figures were converted to a comparable form using the index method. Trends were analyzed using multivariate statistics methods and the Statgraphics software package. Results - Hypothesis 1. There are sectoral disproportions in energy flows,taking into account the volume of electricity production and consumption. Trends in electricity production in general coincide with industrial production volume trends. Energy flows have disparities in individual territorial units, and in general. Hypothesis 2. The degree of sectoral economic stability decreases with insufficient levels of investment in fixed capital energy organizations. Conclusions - Because totalelectricity production is largely determined by fixed capital investments, the study of their trends and patterns will coordinate efforts on investment operations in this area.

This paper is to examine some issues and policy direction of capital income taxation in Korea. Fundamental tax reform in US was reviewed to get some lessons for reforming the capital income taxation. One of main characteristics in Korea's capital income taxation is different treatment by corporation type, investment goods, and financial structures. Especially, the tax differential for debt and equity financing has been serious, as debt has been deducted as cost. We discuss that tax policy should try to satisfy the efficiency, equity, and simplicity under the structure of income based taxation for the time being. However, the changes of tax policies in advanced economies should be carefully examined, as Korea has the structure of small open economy. The current issue on the abolition of corporation income tax might be premature in logical structure and implementation. The US fundamental tax reform might be useful reference for determining the direction of capital income taxation in Korea, as it gives us some chances to discuss about tax base issue with income and consumption. Consumption based taxation is superior to income based taxation in the perspective of administrative and compliance costs. We should consider these tax costs for reforming capital income tax system in Korea.

It has been recognized, virtually from the time of its inception, that fisheries economics, like other aspects of resource economics, should ideally be cast in capital-theoretic terms. The fish population or biomass can be viewed as a capital stock in that, like conventional or man-made capital, it is capable of yielding a sustainable consumption flow through time. This study is to introduce the optimal control theory which was extended from the theory of calculus of variations into the study of former static theory of fisheries economics started by Gordon (1954). The optimal control theory eliminated the inadequacies of the classical techniques to a large extent. From this point of view, this study, on the base of Schaefer model, summerizes most of major results achieved so far, but does so in a manner such that the links with capital theory are made transparent. This study explores two sets of problems. The first concerns the optimal approach to the equilibrium stock, i.e. the optimal investment policy. The second set of problems arises from the relaxation of the highly restrictive assumption of autonomy (i.e. the assumption that the parameters are independent of time), then concludes the relaxation of linearity assumption together with the complexities caused by that.
