Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop an index to measure regional creativity factors from previous research, as well as to empirically analyze the relationship between regional creativity and regional growth. We conduct panel analysis on the balanced panel data of regional creativity in fifteen Korean cities and provinces during 2008-2012. The result of hypothesis testing are as follows: First, amongst factors of regional creativity, sub-factors such as creative personnel and intangible asset (of the basic asset factor), creative enterprise (of the economic agent factor), and convergence and creative industries (of the core industry factor) showed significant influential relationships with GRDP (Gross Regional Domestic Product) as positive. Concerning the systemization factor, all sub-factors showed no significant relationship with GRDP. Second, amongst the factors, creative personnel (of the basic asset factor), start-up and entrepreneurship (of the systemization factor), creative enterprise (of the economic agent factor), the regional space factor, and convergence industry (of the core industry factor) showed significant positive relationships with employment rate. However, tangible and intangible creative asset (of the basic asset factor), convergence management and administration (of the systemization factor), Large/middle/small enterprises and central government/municipalities (of the economic agent factor), and creative industry (of the core industry factor) showed no significant relationship with employment rate. The results of this study will provide insight into the current situation for regional creativity, and review the process and short and long term performance. In addition, it will be a basic means to lead the central government's policy of strengthening local autonomy and decentralization.

본 연구는 선행연구로부터 지역창조화 요인을 측정할 수 있는 지표를 개발하고, 우리나라 15개 시 도의 2008년부터 2012년까지 5년간의 지역창조화 균형패널자료를 구축하여 패널회귀분석법을 통해 지역창조화와 지역성장과의 관계를 실증분석하였다. 분석결과 첫째, 지역창조화 요인 중 기초자산 부문의 창조인력과 무형자산 영역, 경제주체 부문의 창조기업 영역, 지역공간 부문의 창조적 지역환경 영역, 핵심산업 부문의 융합산업과 창조산업은 GRDP(Gross Regional Domestic Product, 지역내총생산)와 의미있는 정(+)의 영향관계가 나타났다. 반면, 조직화 부문은 하위영역 모두 통계적으로 GRDP와 유의미한 영향관계를 확인할 수 없었다. 둘째, 지역창조화 요인 중 기초자산 부문의 창조인력과 조직화 부문의 창업과 기업가 정신 영역, 경제주체 부문의 창조기업 영역, 지역공간 부문, 핵심산업 부문의 융합산업 영역은 고용율과 의미있는 정(+)의 영향관계가 나타났다. 반면, 기초자산 부문의 유형 무형 창조자산 영역, 조직화 부문의 융합경영과 융합행정, 경제주체 부문의 대 중견 중소기업과 중앙정부 및 지자체 영역, 핵심산업 부문의 창조산업 영역은 고용율과 유의미한 영향관계를 확인할 수 없었다. 본 연구의 결과는 지역창조화를 위한 현황을 진단하고, 추진과정과 장단기성과를 점검하는데 시사점을 제공할 것이다. 또한, 중앙정부의 지방자치와 분권강화 정책을 견인할 수 있는 기초수단이 될 것이다.
