This research paper examined to the influencing factors to adopt national policies of international organization's environment. For this a multivariate regression model has been used to examine cross-national differences in environmental policy adoption. The data analysis was conducted by regression analysis, the indexed point of international environmental agreements were ratified by each nation on the measure of independent variables for a sample of 130 countries in all parts of the world. From analysis results, overall, the regression analysis illustrates that the regression model generally fits our predictions for independent variables. The finding has revealed that external determinants are stronger than internal ones in explaining the level of national environmental policy adoption in relation to international environmental cooperation. Namely, All international environmental organizations, international nongovernmental organizations, and regional multinational institutes proved to function in a positive way in influencing number nations to have a favorable attitude toward international environmental policies. The findings of this study will provide helpful information on how to improve the efficacy of the Korean environmental policy system.

Informatization today has been developed in a ubiquitous environment unifying real and virtual space from digital space. To reflect on this trend, the government has promoted the u-Korea Project, which is a national strategy based on ubiquitous technology. With this national informatization policy, 'The Creation of the Infrastructure for Realization of Ubiquitous Country' for establishing a ubiquitous world is presented in the 3rd National Geographic Information System (NGIS) Master Plan, which manages national spatial information. However, we have not yet discovered distinct change for ubiquitous environments and practical technologies. The purpose of the study is to explain the current status of Ubiquitous policies and National GIS policies as a representative national information strategies directed toward the ubiquitous society by comparing Korea and Japan, and then develops improved strategies for the future.

The government of the UK since the 1990, especially under the new Labour Party, has pursued sustainable development or carbon control as a core strategy for its national development. The seemingly prominent environmental policy for 'greening the government' of the UK as well as considerable achievements in energy and environment indices have attracted much attentions of policy makers and researchers for the 'low carbon green growth' in Korea. This paper tries to see the character of carbon control and environmental policy in the UK not merely as the integrating or mainstreaming policy but a new strategy for national development, that is, for the 'ecologically modernized' state, eco-state, or green state. It defines the environmental policy for carbon control in the UK as the strategy for the green state which has provided it as a principal guide for integrating national policies as a whole, and which has pursued it through market-dependent neoliberal measures. From this point of view, this paper introduces the development process of carbon control and environmental policy mainly under the new Labour Party government in the UK, and gives a reappraisal of both its policy and of energy-environment indices.

Unlike traditional environmental problems, current environmental problems occur due to by complex reasons. These complexities highlight the importance of precise spatial based analysis and expeditive use of environmental information when an environmental problem arises. However, the traditional environmental information has many problems because they are mainly numerical based and scattered in various systems. To overcome these problems, providing integrated environmental spatial information is important. Thus, a research was conducted on establishing national environment atlas system and its implications for policies. Firstly, this study selects 275 out of 2,701 materials and information from Ministry of Environment and related organizations. Secondly, total 64 thematic maps specific business support are Produced to support establishment and implementation of environmental policies. In addition, the produced thematic maps are privatized. Thirdly, the study analyzes total 17 systems and environmental thematic maps of Ministry of Environment and relevant organizations to connect the information on the business support thematic maps. As a result, 1,314 applicable spatial information and 39,331 applicable database based on spatial information based are selected, and a standardization plan is established. Fourthly, the study suggests a stepwise implementation plan for developing a national environment atlas system. The development of national environment atlas system will help establishing an environmental policy based on more relevant and accurale information.

국가의 경쟁력은 급변하는 환경에 적극적이고 빠르게 대처해야만 제고될 수 있다. 최근 고부가가치 창출, 지구온난화, 보안 안전 등의 글로벌 환경변화에 따라 교통 및 물류체계 효율성은 국가의 중요 이슈 중 하나가 되었다. 정부에서는 물류발전을 위하여 다양한 정책 및 물류정보망사업을 추진해 왔으나 국내 물류체계의 비효율성 문제는 여전히 거론되고 있다. 이러한 시점에서 국가물류체계의 발전적 개선을 위해서는 최근 세계 환경변화와 각국의 물류정책 및 정보화 추진현황 분석이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 글로벌 물류환경의 변화, 물류선진국들의 물류정책을 살펴보고, 국내 물류정책의 과거와 현재, 그리고 물류정보화 현황을 소개한다. 마지막으로 향후 발전 방향 설정을 위한 시사점을 요약 제시하고자 한다.

본 연구는 선진국의 국가 수자원 정책지표를 파악하여 우리나라의 환경에 맞는 정책지표의 개발을 목적으로 하고 있다. 본 연구의 수행을 위하여, 선진국의 수자원관리 및 정책지표를 파악하였으며, 국가수자원정보 시스템 등 수자원 정보시스템을 적극적으로 활용하였다. 특히, 기후변화의 영향으로 인한 하천환경의 급격한 변화가 예상됨에 따라 현재의 하천환경을 정확히 파악하고, 그것을 토대로 적절한 하천환경에 관한 정책이 수행 될 수 있도록 하는 것에 역점을 두고 있다. 그러한 목적을 달성하기 위하여 물놀이 가능 하천 비율, 하천생태 건강성, 하천자연 보전도, 그리고 상수원수질 안전성이라는 4가지 핵심지표를 개발하였다. 각각의 지표를 활용함으로써 하천환경 전반에 관한 사항을 정확하게 진단할 수 있고, 따라서 이에 근거하여 적절한 하천환경에 관한 정책목표를 수립할 수 있게 될 것이다. 또한 본 연구에서는 각 지표를 통하여 현재의 상태평가를 행하고 있으며, 이를 통하여 기간별 정책목표를 설정하고 있다. 본 연구를 통하여 하천환경 분야에 관한 우리나라 수자원 정책의 장기방향을 설정하여, 불확실한 기후변화에 대응할 수 있는 기반을 제공할 수 있다.

지속적인 경제성장을 위한 기술정책방향은 다음과 같은 두 가지 경제적 환경변화를 고려해야 한다. 첫째, 신기술을 중심으로 하는 새로운 차세대성장산업을 창조함으로써, 지속적으로 우리나라 경제성장을 견인하는 “신기술중심의 경제성장정책기조”이다. 둘째, 신무역질서에서 우리나라 경제를 안정화시켜야 하는 정책기조와, 더 나아가 세계경제발전에 기여하는 “세계경제질서에서 대한민국경제위상확보정책기조”이다. 본 논고에서는 신기술발전과 신무역질서라는 연관관계에서 어떤 신성장 기술정책방향이 바람직한 것인지 알아보자. 이 연관분석을 위하여 우리나라 주요 교역국가를 중심으로 우리나라 신기술발전이 다른 무역대상국가에 어떤 경제적 영향을 미치며, 다른 주요 교역국가인 미국과 일본의 기술발전이 우리나라에 어떤 경제적 영향을 미치는지를 정량적으로 분석하였다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 간단한 국제무역환경을 고려한 기술정책방향에 대하여 제언하였다.

환경정책은 여러 가지 국가정책 기능들 중에서도 특히, 보건 복지정책과 항께 국민의 삶의 질에 직 간접적으로 영향을 미치는 주요한 정책분야이다. 따라서 환경정책은 보수, 진보 어느 정권이 들어서느냐와 관계없이 정치적인 영향으로부터 중립적인 위치에서 과학적이고 합리적으로 다루어져야 한다.

In recent years, many countries are committing to environmental conservation. Following this trend, successful policy implementation of SDGs with ESG management extended to the public sector is emerging as a keyword determining the success or failure of the capital market, countries, and individual companies. Accordingly, many countries are implementing various policies related to the environment. One of them is to implement national policies by introducing environmental taxes. These policies use environmental taxes to control pollution by indirectly influencing the behavior of producers or consumers through economic incentives rather than directly interfering with environmental pollution behavior. This study examines the status of environmental taxes in marine tourism sites in Korea, reviews the effectiveness of such policies, and suggests how to improve them by identifying limitations of the current system.

Advanced maritime countries such as U.S., Canada, Australia, have been initiated in integrated oceans management through enactment of oceans laws and establishment of ocean policies since UNCLOS and Agenda 21. However, the oceans policies of U.S., Canada and Australia show some limitations in view of integration because of its inherent characteristics of federal government systems. The U.S., Canada and Australia have not a leading agency for integrated oceans policies, have not included jurisdiction of local governments in federal government oceans policies, and have not addressed support to private oceans sector in their ocean policies. Instead, those countries have established ad-hoc oceans committee to achieve cooperation and coordination in oceans management.
