The purpose of this paper is to introduce the new way of location choice for free trade zone in Busan area by using Obata and Ishii(2003) model of preference discrimination score. And also, this paper investigates the result of Choi, Bong-ho(200l) that deals with the choice of tariff free area in Busan area. Empirical main results are as follows: First, the North Port(Sinsundae)and the New Busan Port are efficient. Final winer of location choice for free trade zone is the North Port(Sinsundae). Second, the ranking result of this paper for 10 potential sites of free trade zone shows the almost similar to that of Choi, Bong-ho(200l). Policy planner for location choice of free trade zone should introduce the preference discrimination score method by Obata and Ishii(2003), because this method shows the very positive empirical results like questionaire method by expert groups and common people in Busan which should cause the much time and much money.

이 논문은 국지 발신 전파에 대하여 사용료를 부과할 기준에 대하여 논한 것이다. 전자파중 VHF대 이상은 전파의 성질상 국지성이 성립되며 국가관리의 자산으로 간주된다. 이러한 전파를 사용했을 경우 주파수 섬유, 전파 공간, 사용시간등 배타적 이용에 대항 반대 급부의 하나로 사용료가 정의된다. 전파사용료의 부과기준을 회신 전용료의 일정률로 할 때, 그리고 감면률을 감안했을 때 전파즌흥에 필요한 재원이 화보도리수 있음을 이론적으로 구하였다.

Findings - The recognition of FTA in SMEs has a significant positive effect on FTA utilization and performance, the international marketing orientation factor only has a significant positive effect on the performance, while the inadequate improvement of non-tariff barriers has a significant negative impact on FTA utilization. In addition, FTA activity has a significant mediation effect on two paths. Originality/value - This paper is of great practical relevance as a tool to enable SMEs to make effective utilization of Korea-China FTA and improve their imports and exports.

The study assesses the impact of tariffs on Vietnam's trade in the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP). Research data was conducted between 2001 and 2018 on the official website of the Uncomtrade and the World Bank. This paper uses the gravity model to estimate the relationship between data series and considers the impact of factors on Vietnam's trade with CPTPP countries. The results have proven that tariff reductions have a positive effect on Vietnam's trade. Besides, the trade openness of Vietnam and CPTPP countries has positive impacts on Vietnam's trade. The study also shows that Real Effective Exchange Rate (REER) between Vietnam's and CPTPP countries' currencies has no strong effect on Vietnam's trade. Based on these findings, the article also suggests a number of policies to promote Vietnam's trade in future. In order to support businesses to better utilize opportunities and promote exports to CPTPP countries, the government of Vietnam should: (1) focus on reducing costs and time to participate in the market for production and business investors; (2) improve business investment environment to mobilize resources for production; and (3) continue to organize information campaigns to raise businesses' awareness of how to take advantage of CPTPP preferences.

Purpose - The purpose of this study is to evaluate the economic effects of FTAs using the concept of value-added exports. So far, the economic effects of FTAs have been dependent on decrease in import prices due to tariff cuts in importing countries, but the actual tariff reduction need to consider the value added of the exporting countries. Design/methodology - Value-added export refers to the added value created in the exporting country out of total exports. Among value-added exports, direct value-added export is interpreted as the Regional Value Contents (RVC), from which the economic effect of the FTA can be analyzed. A modified GTAP-VA model takes into account RVC in order to estimate accurate effects of FTAs. Findings - By the re-evaluation of the FTA based on the RVC, this paper makes it clear that the economic effects of the existing FTA methodology have the possibility of overestimation. In addition, as a new FTA with a strengthened Rules of Origin (ROO) is being initiated, a negative impact on international trade and GVC utilization may occur. Originality/value - This study introduces the concept of value-added export in analyzing the effects of FTAs. The new analysis methodology of this paper emphasizes the importance of value-added exports. Re-organization of GVCs would change regional trade agreements and empower ROO by weakening existing GVCs and transforming the value chain from global into regional scope.

최근 항만구역내의 대기오염원 감축을 위해 미국을 비롯한 중국 등 세계 각국의 노력이 다양하게 이뤄지고 있다. 항만에 기항하는 선박이 많아질수록 물동량과 선박에서 배출되는 대기오염물질 역시 증가되고 있기 때문에 항만공사와 선사 및 터미널운영사의 사회적책임이 중요해 지고 있다. 육상전력공급시설(AMP)은 선박의 디젤발전기를 대체하여 육상 전력을 선박에 공급함으로서 발전기에서 배출되는 대기오염물질을 감소시키는 공해방지대책이다. 본 연구는 광양항의 효율적인 육상전력공급설비 운영방안 도출을 위해 정박 시 AMP요금과 Bunk Fuel 요금을 비교하였다.

This study aims to analyze international trade papers published in Korea during the past 2002-2022 years. Through this study, it is possible to understand the main subject and direction of research in Korea's international trade field. As the research mythologies, this study uses the big data analysis such as the text mining and Social Network Analysis such as frequency analysis, several centrality analysis, and topic analysis. After analyzing the empirical results, the frequency of key word is very high in trade, export, tariff, market, industry, and the performance of firm. However, there has been a tendency to include logistics, e-business, value and chain, and innovation over the time. The degree and closeness centrality analyses also show that the higher frequency key words also have been higher in the degree and closeness centrality. In contrast, the order of eigenvector centrality seems to be different from those of the degree and closeness centrality. The ego network shows the density of business, sale, exchange, and integration appears to be high in order unlike the frequency analysis. The topic analysis shows that the export, trade, tariff, logstics, innovation, industry, value, and chain seem to have high the probabilities of included in several topics.

As the US's trade deficit with China and China's manufacturing industry has risen rapidly, the US has begun to regulate trade items as part of China's checks. Four rounds of reprisal measures have greatly altered the trade structures of both countries. In particular, Korea, which is highly dependent on the US and China, has been directly affected by US-China trade disputes. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of US-China trade disputes on the stock price of Korean export firms by performing an event study. This study analyzed stock price fluctuations for 7 days before and after entry into forced [Please check] retaliatory tariffs on Korean exporters' export items subject to retaliatory tariffs. According to the analysis results, among companies that produce goods with major tariffs imposed on China by the US, such as electronic appliances, semiconductors, machinery, and automobiles, those producing electronics and semiconductor products were positively affected by the tariff incident. Secondly, among the companies producing steel, chemicals, and machinery, which the main tariffs imposed by the United States, companies producing steel and chemicals were negatively affected by the incident due to the stagnation of trade between China and the US.

무역자유화(貿易自由化)나 지역경제통합(地域經濟統合)의 경제적(經濟的) 효과(效果)를 논의할 때 시장구조(市場構造)와 규모(規模)의 경제(經濟)와 관련된 개방효과(開放效果)를 분석(分析)하는 것이 중요하다. 잠재시장(潛在市場)의 크기가 확대되는 데에 따르는 제품차별화(製品差別化)의 심화(深化)나 규모(規模)의 경제실현(經濟實現)은 '무역(貿易)의 이익(利益)'의 차원(次元)을 확장시킨다. 개방(開放)에 따르는 해외로부터의 경쟁강화(競爭强化)는 국내기업(國內企業)의 경쟁환경(競爭環境)을 심화(深化)시켜 시장진입(市場進入) 퇴출(退出)과 산업합리화(産業合理化)에 영향을 미치기 때문이다. 본고(本稿)는 무역장벽완화(貿易障壁緩和)가 유발하는 자원배분효과(資源配分效果) 및 후생효과(厚生效果)뿐만 아니라, 시장구조(市場構造)가 불완전경쟁적(不完全競爭的)이고 생산과정(生産過程)에 규모(規模)의 경제(經濟)가 존재(存在)하기 때문에 나타나는 '개방(開放)의 이익(利益)'을 가상적(假想的)인 한국(韓國) 일본(日本)의 쌍무적(雙務的) 관세인하효과분석(關稅引下效果分析)을 중심으로 검토하고 있다. 이를 위하여 전산업을 완전경쟁적(完全競爭的) 산업(産業), 불완전경쟁적(不完全競爭的) 산업(産業), 비교역산업(非交易産業)으로 구성되는 30개 산업으로 분류하였으며, 가상적(假想的)인 관세인하(關稅引下)(한국(韓國)의 경우 법정관세 인하, 일본(日本)의 경우 실적관세율 50%인하)를 상정(想定)하여 이것이 양국의 산업에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 관세인하는 산업내(産業內) 무역(貿易)을 증가(增加)시킬 것이나, 산업합리화(産業合理化) 효과(效果)나 규모(規模)의 경제(經濟) 실현(實現)에 미치는 영향은 크지 않을 것으로 추정된다. 또한 관세인하(關稅引下)로 한국(韓國)과 일본(日本)의 총수출(總輸出)과 총수입(總輸入)이 모두 증가하나, 한국(韓國)의 경우 수출증가보다 수입증가가 큰 반면 일본(日本)의 경우 수입증가보다 수출증가가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 한편 관세인하로 한국(韓國)과 일본(日本)의 총산출증가(總産出增加)가 예상되는데, 증가폭은 각각 0.5~0.6%에 이를 것으로 예상된다.
