In existing mobile computing environments, users need to choose between their privacy and the services that they can receive from an application. However, existing mobile platforms do not allow users to perform such trade-offs in a fine-grained manner. In this study, we investigate whether users can effectively make utility-privacy trade-offs when they are provided with a multilevel privacy control method that allows them to recognize the different quality of service that they will receive from an application by limiting the disclosure of their private information in multiple levels. We designed a research model to observe users' utility-privacy trade-offs in accordance with the privacy control methods and other factors such as the trustworthiness of an application, quality level of private information, and users' privacy preferences. We conducted a user survey with 516 participants and found that, compared with the existing binary privacy controls, both the service utility and the privacy protection levels were significantly increased when the users used the multilevel privacy control method.

본 연구에서는 CGE모형을 이용하여 한-아세안 FTA 서비스무역협정의 체결이 한국 경제에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 2007년 11월 21일 서명한 한-아세안 FTA의 서비스무역협정에 근거하여 한국과 아세안 회원국 (태국 제외)이 합의한 양허안에 근거하여 산출한 서비스의 관세상당치(tariff equivalents of services)를 제거하는 경우, 한국 경제에 미치게 될 파급효과를 정량적으로 분석하였다. 거시경제적 영향을 보면, 한국의 실질GDP는 0.04% 증가하고, 후생수준은 1억6백만 달러 높아질 것으로 전망되며, 1인당 후생수준은 0.03% 증가할 것으로 전망된다. 한국의 대(對)세계 수출은 1억7천9백만 달러 증가하고 수입은 약 1억9천1백만 달러 증가하여 1천2백만 달러의 무역수지 적자를 기록할 것으로 예상된다. 한편 한국의 대(對)아세안 수출은 1억8백만 달러 증가하고, 수입은 2억7천8백만 달러 증가하여 한국은 대(對)아세안 1억7천만 달러의 무역수지 적자를 기록하게 될 것으로 예상된다. 그러나 서비스산업의 다양한 규제 등의 교역장벽이 철폐되면서 서비스의 수입가격이 인하되고 수입 중간재를 사용하는 많은 기업의 생산비용이 인하되어 궁극적으로 생산증가, 소득증가의 선순환으로 이어져 궁극적으로 실질 경제성장을 가져올 것으로 분석되었다.

The purpose of this research is to suggest a desirable framework to promote EDI system in the Korean trade and transportation industries. First, this thesis reviews the trend of introduction of EDI systems in foreign countries and investigates their characteristics by examining some cases. Then the problems, which the Korean industries would be confronted with during the course of introduction of EDI system, are identified and discussed. Finally, this thesis suggests that the logistics network should be developed as a main system of EDI to which sub-networks of trade and custom service are linked. This leading role of logistics metwork is necessary to the EDI system because logistics tasks for international movement of goods are expected to increase while tasks related to trade and custom services will decrease in view of recent changes in the world trade environments warning the unbounded competition in the global marketplace without border.

Since the launch of the GATT system, one of the most controversial topics in trade liberalization has been the conflict between culture and trade. The sticking point has been the necessity of cultural exceptions in trade rules. Some countries do not wish to allow further exceptions to basic principles even in cultural industry, while many other countries make their efforts to obtain "cultural safety valve." The latter group asserts that it is indispensable for the protection of cultural identity, whereas the former seems to doubt the truth of the assertion. That is because cultural policy measure possibly constitute a means of arbitrary or unjustifiable discrimination between countries, or a disguised barriers to trade in cultural products. Unfortunately, cultural exceptions still remain unresolved in the WTO, the successor to the GATT. This paper is to review the history and rules of multilateral trading system on cultural industry, address the critical issues to deal with in the DDA negotiations, and lastly provide some perspectives on the appropriate shape of the cultural safety valve.

Electronic commerce facilitates trade and lower transaction cost can help firms make use of the opportunities of globalization of production and markets. Electronic commerce has broad implications for future trade. These implications include the effect on trade policy making and enforcement. And it is important to ensure that the present and future trading system de jure and de facto allows electronic commerce to realize its potentials as an alternative or a complement to conventional trade. The comprehensive work program had been implemented to examine all trade-related issues relating to global electronic commerce before the Seattle 3rd Ministerial Conference which was suspended. In general, Member countries recognized the need to ensure that electronic commerce in all its forms is conducted in full conformity with WTO principles and rules. But, there are still major issues to be solved such as access to relevant electronic systems, competition policy in telecomnunications services, WTO provisions relating to the protection of IPRs, the clarification of a number of key concepts and definitions, etc.

The export of agricultural, fisheries, and food products acts as an engine of growth for developing countries in particular. However, exporting these items is easier said than done since issues of certification and inspection, so-called technical barriers to trade (TBT) and sanitary and phytosanitary measures (SPS), in developed markets have worked as major obstacles for exports. This paper examines the institutional aspects and recent trends of South Korea's TBT/SPS-related cases against exporting firms of the developing countries. We suggest a win-win partnership model that can promote cooperative synergies between Korea and developing employing trade-related technical cooperation or ODA (Official Development Aid). Technical cooperation such as the provision of on-spot field consulting services on TBT/SPS-related issues for exporting firms and Korean OEM firms of developing countries can lead to mutual gains. This cooperative partnership can create gains from "the trade-development nexus" for both sides while promoting sustainable trade and investment relationships between Korea and developing countries.

Purpose - "Trade Facilitation" aims the easier flow of trade across borders, driven not only by effective customs administration, the efficiency of appropriate authorities, but also by telecommunications, the quality of infrastructures and competent logistics. Facilitating trade will help lower trade development costs as well as improve economic development and enhance economic benefits for emerging economies at a time when imports and exports are sent in and out across borders several times in the form of intermediate and final products. Not only that, globalization is being accelerated, which in turn increases competitiveness and this makes logistics one of the key factors when it comes to international trade. Highly efficient logistics services promote product movement, ensure product safety and delivery speed, and reduce trade costs between countries. The purpose of this study is, by using the LPI indices based on gravity model estimates, to analyze the impact of each LPI component on trade with the 20 biggest exporting countries of Northeast Asian countries-Korea, Japan, and China-which account for 19.05% of global exports. Design/methodology - Also, this study statistically analyzes the impact of trade on Northeast Asian countries' top 20 exporting countries, using the LPI indices relevant to Trade Facilitation based on the gravity model estimates. Findings - As a result, it was turned out that the distance, GDP, and the LPI components have relevant impact on the trade exports of all three countries but demonstrated little relation to the demographic perspective. Originality/value - The study also found we can increase the trade volume by improving three countries' trade partners' LPI indices since Korea, Japan, and China share most of their 20 biggest trade partners.

Within the United Nations framework of the Economic and Social Council, the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) serves as the focal point for trade facilitation recommendations and electronic business standards, covering both commercial and government business processes that can foster growth in international trade and related services. Accordingly United Nations Centre for Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business (UN/CEFACT) was established, as a subsidiary, intergovernmental body of the UNECE Committee on Trade, mandated to develop a program of work of global relevance to achieve improved worldwide coordination and cooperation in these areas. Domestic development and distribution of electronic documents to be conformed to international standards, it is enough to have the role of international activities continue to supply part of the domestic industry and the trends in participation and international standard.
