이 연구는 OECD회원국의 국가경쟁력과 연구경쟁력의 상관관계를 분석하는데 목적이 있다. 양자를 분석한 결과, GERD, SCI논문수, 평균 인용회수, JCR 등재잡지 특허수 등이 국가 및 연구경쟁력의 주요 지표로 밝혀졌으며, 유의한 상관관계가 있었다. 그 가운데 OECD 선진국이 생산하는 SCI 논문수와 사독형 학술지는 한국의 국가경쟁력과 연구경쟁력을 강화하는 핵심지표이므로 연구경쟁력과 대학도서관의 상관관계를 분석하는 후속연구가 필요하다.

In recent years, some experts have shown that urban competitiveness is more important than national competitiveness. They have also argued that innovation will make cities more competitive. The purpose of this paper is to create Korean urban competitiveness index, and to also highlight strategic aspects for enhancement of urban competitiveness of metropolitan cities based on innovation in Korea. First, we will present various factors and indicators of urban competitiveness based on three components for innovation: formation of cluster, human capital, creative economy. Available literature and statistical analyses will be used. Second, scores of urban competitiveness will be developed based on Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Evaluation of scores with weights will be used for this purpose. The resulting weights are 0.3672 for the formation of cluster, 0.3318 for human capital, and 0.3010 for creative economy, respectively. Finally, we present urban competitiveness using the standardized T-score. The most competitive city based on innovation is Daejeon(1st), followed by Gwangju(2nd) and Daegu(3rd). Three least competitive cities are Incheon (6th), Busan(5th) and Ulsan(4th).

This study compares and analyzes the effects of GVC participation on export competitiveness in manufacturing and service industry in 36 OECD countries and 28 non-OECD countries. According to the statistical analysis result, the GVC participation had a negative impact on export competitiveness in manufacturing industry, while it had a positive impact in the service industry. In the case of the manufacturing industry, participation toward the backward GVC had a positive impact on export competitiveness before the financial crisis, besides, participation toward the forward GVC had a positive impact on export competitiveness. In the case of the service industry, export competitiveness through forward GVC participation has increased since the financial crisis has occurred, and backward GVC participation was estimated to have a negative impact on export competitiveness. The results of this study implies that, to secure export competitiveness, a converged approach of the manufacturing and service industries to upgrade the global value chain is needed.

Purpose: It suggests that in order to compare economic development between large cities, this paper aims to exclude factors such as GDP, trade, manpower, R&D, then present newly an analysis of others (inflation, exports, middle-class, competitiveness, digital). Research design, data, and methodology: In the period of rapid digitalization of the world, we would like to deal with different analysis factors than before. This is because digitalization and prices have the greatest impact on the region in terms of national competitiveness. Random sampling was used as the sample size of this study to generate various values for the annual income of the middle class and the competitiveness index, and the analysis method was used. This is because the income of the middle class can lead the digitalization of the country and accelerate it to standardization. Results: Based on these analysis, it is necessary to reduce the inflation rate of digitalization, it is necessary to lower inflation rates. This can be more fundamental than interest rates. If the demand for digitalization is reduced, national competitiveness, national competitiveness will lower national competitiveness. By building a hub for middle class, you can reduce this inflation rate without China's oversupply. Conclusion: This is because it is difficult to maintain competitiveness through interest rate control, as prices rise, and inflation can become unstable. This study can seek digital acceptance by the middle class as a solution to problems like the regional economic confrontation of new globalization inflation environment.

The purpose of this study is to construct a regional-sector-fishery-offshore and inshore fishery competitiveness index, examine the types and changes of competitiveness, and derive implications by processing data of the Survey on the Current Status of Offshore and Inshore Fishery from 2013 to 2020 for this study. The main results of this study can be summarized as follows. First, considering the competitiveness of offshore and inshore fishery by region and year, Jeonnam, Jeju, and Incheon were relatively competitive. Second, considering the competitiveness of inshore fishery by region and year, we found that Jeonnam, Chungnam, Jeonbuk, and Jeju were relatively competitive. Third, looking at the types of competitiveness based on the competitiveness index in the management sector of offshore and inshore fisheries by region and year, Ulsan, Jeonnam, and Gyeongbuk were relatively competitive between 2014 and 2020. Fourth, Jeonnam and Jeju were relatively competitive between 2014 and 2020 based on the competitiveness index in the fishing sector of offshore and inshore fisheries by region and year. Fifth, we found that Jeonnam, Jeju, and Chungnam were relatively strong in the competitiveness of offshore and inshore fishery, combining the offshore and inshore fishery indexes by region and year. The results of this study have some limitation on outlier treatment, grade assignment, and weight for aggregation, so research considering these needs to be done in the future. In conclusion, the results of this study which were derived objectively and scientifically in the era of the 4th industrial revolution, when evidence-based decision-making was becoming critical, are expected to help the central or local governments determine the priority of support projects or investments.

국가 간 경쟁의 주체가 국가에서 도시를 중심으로 하는 지역으로 변화함에 따라 지역경쟁력이 국가경쟁력의 근원으로, 지역차원의 조직이 국가 간 핵심 경쟁 단위로 부상하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 한국의 75개 광역·기초시를 대상으로 하는 IPS 도시경쟁력 평가 모델을 통해 도시의 경쟁력을 구체화하고, 특히, 춘천시의 현재와 미래경쟁력 평가결과를 바탕으로 춘천시의 경쟁력 강화전략을 2010년 춘천시에서 개최되는 World Leisure Congress와 World Leisure Game 행사가 춘천시에 미치는 효과를 중심으로 검토하였다. 이러한 논의는 도시의 현재경쟁력뿐만 아니라 미래경쟁력까지 포괄하여 검토함으로써 도시의 경쟁력 강화에 대한 시각의 포괄성을 제시함은 물론, 도시의 여건 및 정책의 문제점을 진단하는 준거로 삼을 수 있으며 이에 대한 문제해결과 함께 보다 발전적인 도시전략 수립을 위한 척도가 된다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
