  • This study analyzed changes in the national research facilities & equipment (RFE) policies historically promoted by the Rho administration (2003~2007), Lee administration (2008~2012), Park administration (2013~2016), and Moon administration (2017~2019) in South Korea. By adding new variables such as policy goals and policy means to a model suggested by Hogwood and Peters (1983), policy change types and their flow could be better classified. Korean RFE policies showed various flows in the policy change types instead of a general flow, which is the order of policy innovation -> policy innovation -> policy succession -> policy succession. This finding indicates that each administration could pursue a higher-level policy change purposively. It is highly required to prepare policy development that devotes to organizing and operating a national council, reflecting in the government's comprehensive plan after evaluating policy effectiveness, improving items needed for the RFE status survey, and unifying the research equipment registration.

  • As the COVID-19 pandemic crisis left developing countries with economic setbacks, it is high time to highlight that innovative technologies lead the digital economy. The big powers including the United States and China are already implementing industrial policies that involve large-scale fiscal expenditures to secure the lives and safety of their people. To prepare for the future up to 2025, this paper reflects opinions of industry-academia-research experts regarding changes in the external environment and industry trends. By reflecting results of focus group interviews and changes in the external environment and industry trends, a new high-level 5X strategy (Digital Transformation, Energy Transformation, Bio Health Transformation, Supply Chain Transformation, and Research Transformation) to solve national tasks required for the existing ten policy demand fields and ten agenda during lower-level policy implementation stages were derived.

  • In 2006, the share of fisheries distribution in Busan amounted to 1.9 million ton, which was 41 percent of the whole country. In details, coastal fishery 334 thousand ton(14% of the whole country), deep sea fishery 452 thousand ton(82%), import fishery 964 thousand ton(70%), export fishery 157 thousand ton(43%) were distributed in Busan region, respectively. According to distribution share, import(50%), deep sea fishery(24%), coastal fishery(18%), export(8%) are main category of fisheries distribution in Busan. After the institutional changes in 1997, that is, from monopoly to the competitive systems are implemented, the share of sales volume through a home trust market decreased gradually since 2000. Especially, the share of direct sales in farming fisheries sector amounted to 73.8 percent of total production volume, 80.7 percent of production value in 2005. Furthermore, the share of fisheries sale through e-commerce is increasing owing to the growth of IT and competitive price of its products. and the sale share of large discount store is also on the 10% more increase. Hereafter these structure changes of fisheries distribution in Busan will be more intensified. Therefore, after reflecting the change in distribution policy of Busan Fisheries, the directions of distribution policy should be established, as follows. $\cdot$ Distribution policy to prepare for increasing of non-trust market sales $\cdot$ Fisheries distribution policy to prepare for increasing of direct transaction like e-commerce $\cdot$ Distribution policy to prepare for increasing of sales ratio in large discount store $\cdot$ Distribution policy for making up sound purchasing circumstance of Fisheries $\cdot$ Distribution policy for reducing the fisheries distribution cost $\cdot$ Distribution policy to prepare for increasing of direct carrying the deep sea fisheries and import fisheries to Seoul and $Inch'{\breve{o}}n$ section $\cdot$ Distribution policy for implementing the information system for managing fisheries transaction $\cdot$ Distribution policy for advancing the export & import management of fisheries $\cdot$ Distribution policy for establishing transaction principle reflecting the peculiarity in fishery distribution(to enacting independent fishery law)

  • This study analyzed the institutional characteristics of large scale national R&D policies in Korea. The analysis examined the continuity and change of the policy institution. It dealt with G7 Project, 21C Frontier Project, and Next Generation Growth Engine Project as the major large scale national R&D policies in Korea. The theoretical approach of this study is to the continuity and change or evolution of policy institution from the perspective of new institutionalism. Based on the theoretical analysis, it emphasized the analysis of the institutions in three different levels: macro, meso, and micro level. In the analysis, the research examined the idea of policy institution or policy goal, participants in the policy institution, and policy instruments in different levels. The outcome of the analysis shows that the policy of large scale national R&D in Korea has the institutional continuity in the macro level. In the meso level, however, the policy institution changes due to the administration change and the influence of political economic environment. In the micro level, the policy institution changes based on the symbolic influence of policy goal and the interest of bureaucrats. The research finds that the micro and meso level institutional changes cause the evolution of policy institutions and the major change of policy institution.

  • This study reviews the issue of public interests of technologies required in industrial technology policy as well as the demand for changes in industrial technology policy as result of the migration from catch-up to post catch-up innovation system. In fact, the importance of public interests which served as the rationale for government intervention in industrial technology policy have gradually faded, which invited controversies over the legitimacy and effectiveness of government intervention in promoting specific technologies or industries. Today, the existing policy framework has to change to correspond to the post catch-up environment which requires creative technology development. In this context, the Korean government needs to reduce direct support for certain companies or technologies, but increase R&D investment in energy, environment and health and welfare to enhance public interests of technology innovation activities.

  • This study deals with the cases of policy changes of the research council system which exists since 1999 as a policy tool to achieve the goals for autonomy and independence of Government-funded Research Institutes (GRIs) in the field of science and technology and their cooperation and organic connection. The purpose of the study was to analyze through which process policies about the research council system have changed and whether they resulted in the successful achievements of the aimed policy goals, and to contribute to the effective policy implementation in the future. The Research Council System of Science and Technology has been undergoing a change for four government replacements (from Kim Dae-jung's Government to Park Geun-hye's Government). In this study, the major policy making factors and the policy change process of each government case are analyzed in comparison using Kingdon's multiple streams framework, as a result, their policy change type by the Hogwood and Peters's theory and the achievement of their policy goals of autonomy and responsibility were examined.

  • The transition to wartime operational control during the term of office, which was the promise of the Moon Jae Inn administration, fell through. More than 70 years after it was transferred during the Korean War in 1950, the policy of converting wartime operational control has been repeatedly decided and reversed several times. This conversion of wartime operational control is a national policy directly related to our security, and it is most important to understand the determinants of the administration's conversion to wartime operational control. This paper selects two cases of adjustment of wartime operational control policy during the Lee Myung Bak administration in 2006 and 2010 during the Roh Moo Hyun administration as the subject of the study and expects to gain not only policy predictive power but also successful policy execution at the time of the two administration' policy changes.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness and efficiency of a policy by comparing and analyzing the impact of the rice market isolation system and production adjustment system (strategic crops direct payment system that induces the cultivation of other crops instead of rice) on rice supply, rice price, and government's financial expenditure. To achieve this purpose, a rice supply and demand forecasting and policy simulation model was developed in this study using a partial equilibrium model limited to a single item (rice), a dynamic equation model system, and a structural equation system that reflects the casual relationship between variables with economic theory. The rice policy analysis model used a recursive model and not a simultaneous equation model. The policy is distinct from that of previous studies, in which changes in government's policy affected the price of rice during harvest and the lean season before the next harvest, and price changes affected the supply and demand of rice according to the modeling, that is, a more specific policy effect analysis. The analysis showed that the market isolation system increased government's financial expenditure compared to the production adjustment system, suggesting low policy financial efficiency, low policy effectiveness on target, and increased harvest price. In particular, the market isolation system temporarily increased the price during harvest season but decreased the price during the lean season due to an increase in ending stock caused by increased production and government stock. Therefore, a decrease in price during the lean season may decrease annual farm-gate prices, and the reverse seasonal amplitude is expected to intensify.
