In Indonesia, micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) are introduced to increase income by providing many easier jobs to improve economic growth. They have also been reported to be generally supportive of the local industry. The government policies on investment and expenditure have the ability to promote MSMEs and economic growth. Therefore, this research was conducted to analyze the theoretical background and empirical study to investigate government's role to promote MSMEs growth in Indonesia. The secondary data after the 2008 global financial crisis recorded quarterly from 2009 to 2019 Q3 were analyzed using the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression model. The results showed government expenditure has a positive and significant contribution to small- and medium-sized enterprises, but the effect was not significant for micro-businesses. Meanwhile, the investment sector was discovered to have a positive and significant effect on MSMEs. The policy implications of the Indonesian government are expected to focus on its expenditure's role as the most important factor for "social-economic protection of the community" through micro-enterprises, which are numerous and more attached to the real community economic-social life. Therefore, the existence of micro-businesses is very helpful for the lower classes despite their high vulnerability to crisis.

급속하게 변하고 있는 디지털 환경의 사회 구조는 경제활동에 큰 영향을 주고 있다. 경제활동을 지속하려는 개인과 정책지원을 하는 국가에도 중요한 현안이다. 고령화로 인한 인적 자본 활용 문제, 코로나19 팬데믹으로 인한 실물경제 불황과 대면 경제활동의 위축 그리고 고용 감소와 일자리 불안정성이 대두되면서 비대면 산업이 활성화되었다. 그에 따라 디지털 미디어 콘텐츠 기반의 경제활동이 일상화되었고, 정부도 미디어 콘텐츠 기반 경제활동에 실효성 있는 인적 자본 활용이 주요 정책 과제가 되었다. 일자리 지속을 바라는 사람들에게 디지털 환경에 대한 적응은 선택이 아닌 필수가 되었다. 따라서 본 연구는 디지털 역량과 개인적 역량이 경제활동 지속 의도에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 분석하고, 롤 모델의 조절 효과를 검증하였다. 본 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 전국 남·여 20~80세를 대상으로 온라인 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 수집된 설문지 385부 중 382부의 자료를 분석하였다. 본 연구의 분석을 위해서 SPSS 23.0의 프로그램을 사용하였고, 설문 항목은 Likert 5점 척도를 이용하여 측정하였다. 분석 결과는 첫째, 디지털 역량 중 미디어 콘텐츠 활용 역량은 경제활동 지속 의도에 정(+)의 영향이 나타나 SNS 등의 최신 디지털 미디어 콘텐츠 활용 역량이 높을수록 경제활동 지속 의도가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 개인적 역량 중 자금 능력은 부(-)의 영향이, 경험은 정(+)의 영향이 경제활동 지속 의도에 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 사회적 환경은 경제활동 지속 의도에 의미 있는 영향이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 사회적 지지 중 가족지지는 경제활동 지속 의도에 정(+)의 영향이 나타나 가족에 대한 다양한 감정적 지원은 경제활동 지속 의도가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 다섯째, 롤 모델은 경제활동 지속 의도에 정(+)의 영향이 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 미디어 콘텐츠 활용 역량과 가족지지가 경제활동 지속 의도에 미치는 영향에서 조절 효과 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구 결과, 경제활동 지속을 위하여 디지털 미디어 콘텐츠 기반의 디지털 교육과 인적 구조에 맞는 정부의 취업과 창업에 대한 정책지원이 요구된다.

This paper rejuvenates the existing discussion on the importance of cluster approach to industry development strategies. Current evidences suggest that the shape of economic policy and practice is changing significantly around the world. Governments continually search for new tools and policy formulas to improve economic performance and create economic prosperity for all citizens. In this context a more proactive and strategic role for government in support of the cluster-based economic development model has emerged. This paper uses Singapore's petrochemical industry as an example to study the cluster approach to industry development. In doing so, there is much optimism to the importance of state and its institutions to play a significant role on industry development. Nevertheless, the study also raises doubts on whether the cluster-based strategy is due to the concept itself or due to other important factors.

This study is to estimate the factor weights of the reasons for decreases in marine fishery resources using the Analytical Hierarchy Process. Furthermore, it classifies 20 fishes under a fishery resource recovery plan into various groups of fishes according to these factor weights using the non-hierarchial cluster analysis. The factors of decreases in marine fishery resources are identified as bio-ecological, technology-system, economic-business, and fishing village-society factors. Two of the most important factors of decreases in resource are turned out to be the economic-business and bio-ecological factors, estimated as 31% and 30% respectively. The technology-system and fishing village-society factors are estimated as 21% and 18% respectively. The study utilizes non-hierarchical cluster analysis in order to classify 20 fishes into 2, 3, and 4 groups. K-means cluster analysis is applied for grouping in conjunction with ANOVA to identify statistical differences in factors. Once again, the economic-business and bio-economic factors play main role in grouping 2-groups of fishes case. The third group of fishes in addition to the previous 2 groups of fishes appears as those 4 factors of decrease evenly play about the same role at a 3-groups of fishes case. Finally, the economic-business and bio-economic factors are turned out to be evenly important in the 4th group once there are 4-groups of fishes.

The Korean Peninsula has the gateway role of Far East Asia in economic aspect, because it is the channel to global world that Korea and Japan should take in the future. Till now, there was no real economic cooperation in service industry for two Koreas. Nevertheless, it is high time that two Koreas have to play a gateway role in order to pave the way to come true their global vision. This paper aims to examine the possibility of economic cooperation between two Koreas in service sector and explore the vision and strategy which are useful for the ways toward peaceful unification on the Korean Peninsula and two Koreas' future survival in the midst of global competition. Economic cooperation in service sector, such as transport, tourism, educational services, etc. between two Koreas means establishing and strengthening the infrastructure of their unification. If there were no cooperation of service sector on the Korean Peninsula, we also could not expect the outcome of economic cooperation and the vision of Korea's unification. To sum up, the strategy recommended for the Korean Peninsula's global vision is that two Koreas should simultaneously open the window of economic cooperation in service sector and link the interface between the Eurasian continent and the Korean Peninsula.

Third, this results demonstrate, for the first time, that the economic satisfaction and social satisfaction of franchisees can play a crucial role to improve their loyalty for the franchisor and pursue mutual development by maintaining the stable business relationship with a franchisor. In this investigation there are at least three limitations. First, Because the research sample is limited to the foodservice franchisee in Seoul, it is not possible to be representativeness of the national franchisee. Second, CSR activities are mostly focused on large franchise companies. Therefore, there is a limit to the research approach. Finally, this study examined the effect of economic CSR and philanthropic CSR on the loyalty of franchisors, but in the future study, it is necessary to analyze the relationship between CSR and loyalty of franchise companies by collecting specific quantitative data such as re-contract rate and management performance of franchisees.

External social support for family can be an important resource for families to overcome economic pressure, and can be a way to understand the concept and process of family resilience in the context of Korean economic crisis. To explore the role of external social support that alleviates the negative effects of economic pressure on marital satisfaction, the buffering effects were tested in two ways. First, the interaction effect between external social support and economic pressure on marital satisfaction was tested using hierarchical linear regression model. Second, the scores of marital satisfaction were plotted by the median scores of economic pressure and external social support. Results from the analyses of 191 couples (382 husbands and wives) indicated that external social support help families by buffering the negative effects of economic pressure on marital satisfaction by interacting with economic pressure.

In doing this, it has started with economic globalization introduced to the Korean political economy since the late 1980s. It has identified in what ways the state responded to the change, and to what extent the role of the state has fundamentally been changed in the context of policy mechanism in the process towards facilitating the IT industry in Korea. In addition, it presented how the state played a role in skill formation in relation to the industrial policy. In consequence, the role of the Korean state in fostering the IT industry has fundamentally changed from that as the developmental state in the industrialization process. In the process, that the strategic co-ordination role of the state and relations between the state and private capitals and societies are very significant to achieve the economic goal is presented as results, as well as some future tensions that would encounter in the way of charting the current policies.
