The purpose of this study is to analyze the present condition of the Korean footwear industry, and its competitiveness through related precedent research. Research was done by analyzing data from the Korean Statistical Information Service, the Korea International Trade Association and advanced research about the footwear industry. Footwear markets all over the world are growing continuously. The main consumers are China, America and India. World footwear trade is showing a growth trend on the basis of cost and amount. The main exporting countries are China, Vietnam and Italy, while main importing countries are America, Germany and France. The domestic market and the export market of footwear in Korea are decreasing. The scale of exporting footwear is gradually decreasing, however the scale of importing footwear is increasing. Korea exports footwear to China, Vietnam and Japan and imports them from China, Vietnam and Indonesia. Studies concening the footwear industry implied that the competitiveness of Korea has been weakened both in the domestic and the export markets. To enhance the competitiveness of Korean footwear corporations, long-term support at the national level is needed. Especially, cultivating competitive experts is crucial to improve the competitiveness of designs and the quality of products. Furthermore, branding strategies using the Korean wave, Korean culture and the national image of Korea, as well as platform strategies to communicate with consumers globally and selling high-quality products are significant.

There are two aspects of digital trade: the digitalisation of goods/services being traded and the digitalisation of the transactional act. Digital data (i.e. machine-readable industrial data and transactional data) is the major driving force for both aspects of digital trade. Digital data is a non-rivalrous input, whether for production or marketing activities, and is thus able to be used by many firms or government agencies without limiting the use of others. Digital platforms provide online infrastructure for the interactions between groups, for instance, consumers and producers. The externality effect refers to the situation in which prosperity in one group on a given platform will improve the returns of other groups on the same platform. In the era of the data-driven economy, strategic trade policy can involve data-related policies. The major objective of these policies is to improve the competitiveness of domestic firms. For instance, firms may be subsidised if they use cloud services provided by specific platforms. This strand of strategic trade policies might be useful for increasing the competitiveness of small-and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) via the digitalisation of production/marketing processes. Alternatively, strategic trade policy may also exploit the externality effect via platform economy-related policies. Further, some countries may form data coalitions to facilitate cross-border data flow. This paper uses cases in Asian countries to illustrate which role these strategic trade policies can play in the digital economy.

41개국 34개 산업의 부가가치수출 RCA를 계산하고 각국 각 산업의 경쟁력을 평가하였다. 중국의 성장속도가 한국보다 빠른 것은 사실이지만 한국의 수출을 대체 또는 추월하고 있다는 증거는 미약하다. 수출 주력산업에서의 일본과의 경쟁력 격차가 확대되고 있다는 주장 또한 설득력이 미흡했다. 전세계 국가-산업의 패널분석의 시사점은, 대 세계 경쟁력을 유지하는 방편으로 산업 내 교역 특히 중간재 교역이 활성화되면서 부가가치 RCA와 총수출 RCA 간에 격차가 발생한다는 것이다.

This study investigates the different pattern of trade negotiation between Korea and Japan. For the Korea, it is inevitable to enhance nation's competitiveness position amid the rapidly changed international environment. Especially, Korea's recent experience of IMF credit under economic crisis during 1997-1999 tells us the importance of international trade and trade negotiation. Our main interest is focused on the comparative pattern of both countries with the recognition that the role of the negotiation can not be overemphasized for the Korea. This is because Korea has continuously recorded the huge trade deficits with Japan for the long time. Although we consider the different degrees of products quality, industrial structure, productivity, and national competitiveness of both countries, it is necessarily required to pay special attention on different pattern of negotiation skills and tactics between two countries. In the paper, we suggest some important guidelines for Korea to improve its negotiation technique with Japan. First, valuing human relation between negotiators, rather than negotiating process. Second, preparing for negotiations: the negotiators should try to carve out enough time to prepare for the bargaining. Third, appreciating the power of patience: very essential to effective outputs. Fourth, being a specialist on both countries' culture and avoiding lawyers' intervention for conflict resolution.

이 연구는 한국과 베트남의 임산물 교역동향 및 교역의 특징을 살펴보고 주요품목의 경쟁력을 분석하여 한-베트남 FTA 임산물협상에 있어 한국이 취할 수 있는 방향을 제시하였다. 한-베트남 임산물 교역규모는 2011년 2억726만 달러에 달한다. 한국은 주로 베트남에 단기소득 임산물을 수출하고 있는 반면, 목재류를 수입하고 있다. 특히 최근 5년 평균 목재류 수입액은 한국의 대베트남 수입액 중 88%에 달하는 것으로 나타났다. 한-베트남 교역에 있어 수출 품목은 다양하지 않고 수출액은 적은 반면, 수입은 저부가가치 목제품을 위주로 대량 수입되고 있다. 한-베트남 임산물의 경쟁력 분석결과 한국의 임산물 중 경쟁력이 있는 품목은 3개 품목이나, 베트남은 11개 품목으로 나타났다. 교역구조 및 경쟁력 분석결과와 현행 관세율을 고려할 때 제재목, 합판 등을 민감품목으로 지정하여 관세인하를 최소화하고 관세인하 기간을 장기로 설정할 수 있는 방향으로 협상하도록 하여야할 것이다.
