The aim of this study was to forecast the future Health Functional Food (HFF) market trends of Korea by studied about policies and market situation in Japan. The HFF is a food that is given an additional health function. In contrast with traditional foods, the HFF has unique characteristics in that it can be produced under the political regulations.

Therefore, in this paper, by examining the policies and the market situation of Japan through literatures, we forecasted upcoming political and market situational changes of Korea's HFF market. We noticed that consumers needs about the HFFs which diversified, confidently ensured safety and ingredients will increase.

동대문 패션상권은 전국의 소매상을 위한 도매의 기능과 함께 현대화된 대형 쇼핑몰을 중심으로 소매의 기능까지 도맡고 있다. 또한 동대문 패션상권은 동대문 1km 반경 내에서 원부자재와 봉제공장, 패션상가 등 관련 산업이 집적되어있어 패션상품의 기획과 생산, 판매 및 유통이 완결되는 매우 독특한 구조를 가지고 있다. 그러나 동대문 패션상권은 보유하고 있는 경쟁력에 비해 급변하는 시장환경의 변화에 적절하게 대응하지 못해 위기를 맞고 있다. 이를 극복하기 위해 정부에서는 여러 가지 노력을 기울였으나 그 효과가 지속적이지 못하고 일회성에 그치고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 현재 시행되고 있는 정책들을 살펴보고 그 정책들이 간과하고 있는 동대문 패션상권의 활성화에 대한 정책을 전문가 인터뷰를 통해 도출, 제안했다.

Many leading companies provide family-friendly policies for a good work-family balance and to increase the productivity of their workers. The workers receive such benefits as family leaves or financial support for caring for their dependents. But the employees need much more support than these benefits to properly care for their families. This study examines the role of the companies in the expansion of family-friendly policies to the community. A few companies see community relations-such as investing in community programs-as linked to work-family policies. Accordingly, this study suggests the best practices and alternatives of many companies. This study also examines the role and perspectives of the Family-Friendly Support Center as an organization that can lead the community involvement of the business. This center can promote the company's collaboration and network of stakeholders.

The structure of medical profession is composed of multiple relations among state, patients, and medical professions. There are conflicts between the nation and medical professions because the nation controls the monopoly of medical professions through medical policies. Patients make relations with medical profession as medical consumers. And medical professions compete each other in order to gain the control of the medical market. This paper attempts to review the dynamic relations between the nation and medical professions. The medical professions and the nation are in conflict about the control of the autonomy of medical professions. The medical professions want to exercise the monopoly rights in their own area and, on the other had, the nation wants to prevent problems that might result from the monopoly by regulations and to have the control over the national operation. Given this, the common view of medical sociology is that the nation and the medical professions are in constant conflict. The arguments that the present medical sociology has on the relationship between the nation and medical professions can be summarized like these: first, the nation is the authenticator of medical system; second, the nation is a medical provider and consumer; and, third, the nation is a mediator of regulations and conflicts. Based on the above mentioned relations between the nation and medical professions, this paper attempts to see how the nation, which is one component of the medical structure, make influences on Korean Oriental doctors and Traditional Chinese doctors. So as to do this, the changes in medical policies and promoting policies for Korean Oriental medicine and Traditional Chinese medicine are analyzed. Finally, the differences in national policies of Korean Oriental medicine and Traditional Chinese medicine are compared.

Lately there are many approaches for decreasing the retail prices for mobile telecommunication in response to higher demand of the consumer welfare. Related on this perspective, there have been many disputes how the MTR (mobile termination rate)s from the whole market has influences on the consumer prices at the retail market. Therefore, we need a timely review about the possibility of the reduction of retail prices with MTR policies. The purpose of this paper is to study the relationship between MTR and retail prices. For this purpose, we can identify three kinds of arguments by reviewing the previous literatures. We empirically analyze the relationship with latest European data and Korean annual data. Furthermore, we also examine whether the relationship would depend on the competition structure. The results imply that decreasing MTR would result in reduction of the retail prices but the effect would be enhanced by improvement of market concentration.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs is currently pushing forward policies targeting the Rural Convergence Industry initiative to incubate the front-runners of the '6th industry', to increase off-farm income, to create rural jobs for elderly, and to create women-based farms. As a result, in 2017, a total of 11,604 Rural Convergence Industries were in business, and the goods produced from those industries were diverse. However, the quality and safety of those products are not being checked and managed thoroughly, which has caused consumers to not trust products made from the Rural Convergence Industries. Through a survey and the ordering logit model, this study analyzed consumer perception of the safety and quality of goods from the Rural Convergence Industries. The analysis revealed that we must first raise awareness of the importance of rural agriculture areas and the products of the Rural Convergence Industries to uplift consumer perceptions regarding the products produced by the industries. The analysis also revealed that diverse points of distribution (sellers), education on the importance of rural and urban areas, and marketing Rural Convergence Industry products within suburban consumer populations are necessary to increase the consumption of these products.

본 연구는 국립공원 탐방수요와 경제변수인 산업생산지수와 소비자물가지수 간의 관계를 분석하였다. 인과 관계검정 결과 산업생산지수와 소비자물가지수는 국립공원 탐방수요에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 충격반응분석 결과 산업생산지수와 소비자물가지수가 단기적으로 큰 반응을 보이기 시작하여 장기적으로 파급효과를 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 분산분해분석 결과 국립공원 탐방수요는 자체변수에 가장 영향을 많이 받는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구 결과 경제변수는 휴양의 수요를 예측하고 정책을 수립하는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
