최근 세계 경제는 사상 유래를 찾기 힘든 경제위기에 홍역을 앓고 있다. 국제유가를 비롯한 원자재가격은 수급불균형과 정치적 이슈, 그리고 투기자본의 유입이 어우러져 급등락을 거듭하고 있다. 또한, 지구온난화를 막기 위해 국제사회에서 추진하고 있는 기후변화협약도 큰 어려움을 겪고 있다. 선진국들은 배출권 거래제도 시행, 탄소세 도입 등을 통해 본격적인 환경 무역시대가 도래에 대비하고 있으며, 포스트 교토체제에 대한 협상도 본격화 되고 있어 대응이 시급한 실정이다. 자원 환경위기의 시대에 녹색성장은 불가피한 선택이 되었으며 우리나라에서도 온실가스 감축을 위해 많은 노력을 하고 있다. 정부에서는 탄소포인트제도 도입과 10대 녹색기술 산업 육성, 그린 뉴딜을 통한 녹색일자리 4만 3천개 창출 등 기후변화 대응을 위한 정책들을 추진하고 있으며, 또한 저탄소 녹색성장의 한 주축으로 신재생 에너지 기술개발 및 보급의 확대를 통해 세계시장 선점을 위해 매진하고 있다. 환경부에서는 폐기물에너지화, 기후변화대응, 환경산업육성 등 '저탄소 녹색성장'을 이끌 사업과 '경제 살리기'에 역점을 두고 2009년도에는 환경부 소관예산 '08년 예산 3조 5,914억원 대비 5,008억원(13.9%) 증액된 총 4조 922억원을 투자할 계획이다. 이에 본지에서는 지난호에 이어 저탄소 녹색성장을 위한 녹색자원 기술 육성II로 주제를 잡고 "온 국민이 참여하는 기후변화 대응 정책 추진", "녹색성장 정책 추진에 있어 기업체 지원방향", "우리나라 신재생에너지 기술개발현황과 앞으로의 과제", "가정에서 온실 가스 줄인만큼 혜택받는 탄소은행"등에 대하여 살펴보고자 한다.

Most of weapon purchasing countries in the world are using offset trade as an important negotiation means of foreign trade. In particular, Japan and Israel have obtained good results in the new projects and finding a new market for the long run through the offset trade. On the other hand, the USA holds much weight in the aspect of Republic of Korea's record of offset trade performance. However, compared with the record, her achievement known concretely has been evaluated insufficiently. Therefore, we suggest the improvement plans of the offset trade drive systems in this study. So that we analyze foreign countries' priority by offset trade type against the USA, the American offset trade object and priority and the case study of offset trade's post valuation plan. Moreover, we extract management problems of assets and technical materials obtained through the offset trade.

식품 등의 수입이 본격화되면서 수입식품에 관한 관리 및 통상관련업무를 전담할 조직(식품유통과, 현재 식품진흥과)이 보건복지부에 설치되고, 각 검역소에서 수입검사업무가 본격화된 것이 7년여에 이른다. 얼마되지 않는 기간이지만 그동안 국제적으로는 무역에 관한 환경의 변화, 국내적으로는 수입검사제도의 변화 등 이 분야에 많은 변화가 거듭되어 왔다. WTO체제의 출범이후 세계의 시장은 하나가 되어가고 이에 따라 각종 관련제도도 점차 조화를 이루어 가고 있으며, 지금도 각 나라는 양자간 또는 다자간 협상을 통하여 서로의 입장차를 좁혀 나가기 위한 노력이 계속되고 있는 것이 현실이다. 이러한 시점에서 각 나라는 보다 안전한 식품을 자국민에게 공급하기 위한 노력이 계속되고 있고, 우리나라도 작년 4월 식품의약품안전본부(KFDA)와 6개의 지방청이 발족되면서, 식품$\cdot$의약품 등의 안전관리를 전담하여 왔으며, 앞으로 독립외청으로 개편될 전망에 있다. 특히 내년부터는 수입식품관리업무가 완전한 전산화체제로 가동될 전망에 있어, 수입식품이 더욱더 효율적이고도 완벽한 관리가 될 것으로 기대된다. 이제 수입식품 등을 관리하는 업무가 무엇보다도 중요한 국가사무중의 하나가 되었고, 국민들의 관심과 기대 또한 높아지고 있다. 수입자가 식품 등을 수입하기 위하여 관련기관에 신고하기에서부터 검사기관에서는 이를 검사하고 수입신고필증을 발급하기 까지의 제반의 절차가 사실 식품위생법, 고시, 훈령 등에 의존하고 있는데, 이들이 여기저기 분산되어 있어 필요할 때마다 따로 따로 찾아보아야 하는 번거로움과 이해하는데에 어려움이 있어 온것이 사실이며, 오늘도 많은 담당공무원들이 민원인들의 방문 및 문의전화에 시달려야 한다. 사실 처음수입을 해본 사람이면 알 수 있을터이지만 알아야 할 사항이 한두가지가 아닌 것을 느낄 수 있을 것이다. 이러한 취지에서 수입업무를 담당하는 관련기관이나 업체에서 식품수입업무를 행하는데 있어서 조금이나마 보탬이 되었으면 하는 마음으로 집필하였다.

Many countries in the world have regulated cross-border supply in basic telecommunications services based on GATS exception rule for telecommunications because of anti-competition behavior control, domestic consumer protection, tax levy, national security, etc. Korea partially regulates cross-border supply in telecommunications service through the WTO and the domestic law and regulation. However, WTO and FTA negotiations, cross-border supply regulation are strongly demanded to deregulation. Therefore, it is required to review the effectiveness of cross-border supply regulation to prepare the counter plan for that regulation. Thus, the major countries of the telecommunication services regulation regarding the cross-border supply are reviewed. In addition, it is retrieved some implications for Korean regulation policy by reviewing the actual regulation of many countries cases.

The successive round of talks oil Korea-USA Free Trade Agreement (FTA) has continued, and it also has the Intellectual property(IPR) unit. Until now, tile one of most disputing concerns in IPR unit through talks is the limitation of compulsory license of claimed invention. The US is urging to establish a safeguard for IPR, as similar measure of the US, to protecting the profit of the US enterprises through these on-going talks, it is more likely expected to take the offensive about infringement of the patent seriously. Based on the current circumstances, the provision strategy study is needed to obtain Korea inventors the first inventor defense under the US patent law system as well as understand the current Korea's patent law and its revision against that in the US. In patent Law, both nations with first to file system and first to invent system permit a prior user of an invention to continue to use the invention notwithstanding its subsequent patenting by another under being subject to certain qualifications and limitations, even though a patent by a later inventor is granted. Normally, the first inventor defense has been used to compensate the drawbacks of the first to file system. The US patent Law, however, adopting the first to invent system admits the first inventor defense. Therefore, pursuing counteract provision under consideration with Korean patent Law system and research environment along with investigating the reason why the US adopted its patent law system, the scope of right, and the new reform of Act. 2005 of the institute, which promotes the first Korean inventor to possess the defense right of the US, provides certain preparations for Korean companies against the expected offensive from the US ones under the US patent Law system.

Currently, the most common form of regional economic integration is FTA (Free Trade Area), which is formed by two countries or more as either a bilateral or multilateral agreement. A proposed FTA between Korea and China recently has been re-focused after China concluded its ECFA (Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement) with Taiwan in June 2010. By May 2010, China was the No.1 export partner to Korea (as a Chinese No.2 import partner). Also, Korea and Taiwan trade structure to China is similar and competitive at the same time. So, China-Taiwan ECFA has a significant effect on the trade between China and Korea. As a result, it will hurt Korean industrial production and trade with China. Therefore, the progress and expected issue of a FT A between Korea and China which is prompting will be analyzed. In this situation, the final purpose of this paper is to analyze the impact on a Korea-China FTA Negotiation from the China-Taiwan ECFA.

The role and ratio of national vessels in the global container shipping market have reduced significantly due to the bankruptcy of Hanjin Shipping in early 2017. All import-export companies, as well as container ports in Korea, are facing a crisis. The Trump's tariff and trade battles have had a negative impact on the increase in the North American cargo. However, Chinese and Japanese container shipping companies, which merged with domestic container shipping companies, and mega carriers such as Maersk and CMA CGM have benefited from the decline in shipping supplies due to the collapse of Hanjin Shipping, the world's 10th largest container carrier in Korea. The import/export freight trade in Korea is witnessing the increasing stronghold of foreign carriers. This scenario is expected to weaken Korea's negotiation powers with overseas shipping companies in domestic ports, such as Busan and Kwangyang, thereby making it more challenging to attract shipping carriers. This study compares the global container-shipping network in 2007 and 2017 by combining the network topology of the social network analysis and the economics of the liner shipping connectivity index (LSCI) and the container port connectivity index (CPCI) analysis. The findings of this study are that the role of the ports across the world can be identified, and CPCI has a high correlation with the centrality index and freight volume data. These findings can contribute toward the utilization of the meaning of the necessary centrality index without an additional centrality analysis. This study can be applied not only to the call strategy of container carriers but also to the alliance and development strategy of Korean ports.

This study aims at quantifying potential economic effects on the Korean economy of a China-Korea FTA and a Japan-Korea FTA using a dynamic computable general equilibrium (CGE) model. Most of the previous studies on them used static CGE models. Key findings of this study are that a China-Korea FTA would lead to a higher increase in Korea's exports and economic growth than a Japan-Korea FTA and that both a China-Korea FTA and a Japan-Korea FTA would cause additional trade deficits to Korea, which would be minuscule compared to Korea' economic trade volume. Since potential economic impacts on Korea's industry output and exports by sector of a China-Korea FTA and a Japan-Korea FTA are forecast to be complementary, i.e., major sectors which would run trade deficits from a Japan-Korea FTA would run trade surpluses from a China-Korea FTA, a simultaneous pursuit of both a China-Korea FTA and a Japan-Korea FTA would be more desirable and beneficial to Korea. This study shows that a dynamic CGE model which can take explicit account of international capital mobility and ownership is required for more precise estimation of effects of the FTAs.

China is the largest e-commerce market in the world. The Chinese online retail market is almost 40% larger than the US, and together these markets account for more than 55% of worldwide e-commerce. The Korea China FTA is likely to facilitate e-commerce activity between the two countries, as well as trade in the goods and services that enable e-commerce. Korean consumer goods can enjoy the benefits of the FTA because it has a competitive advantage in the Chinese market in terms of technology and quality. The purpose of this study is to examine legal issues of e-commerce chapters of the Korea China FTA and policy implications. Results of the study show that several implications based on the export vitalization of cross-border e-commerce of Korean products are offered. The Korean government needs to do the following: prepare for the subsequent negotiation of the e-commerce agreement, prepare for the classification issue of electronic transmissions, require mutual recognition of electronic authentication and electronic signatures, prepare for e-commerce dispute settlement mechanism and establish of strategies for the export vitalization of e-commerce.

Construction of Private networks is becoming easier due to the openness of telecommunication market, rapidly developing telecommunication technology. The size of existing private networks is becoming huge which resulted in surplus of capacity of the networks. These trends will generate a problem of efficient use of national telecommunication resources and which will be a factor for the structure of domestic telecommunication market which will have a big impact on the existing telecommunication carriers. Therefore, national policy of private network issues should be considered along with the national efforts for the information infrastructure, control of telecommunication market, fairness of competition, strength Power of national competition. In this paper it will be suggested that the efficient policy on the issue of domestic private network, by analyzing present situation, status quo, laws, regulation and procedure for domestic private networks and comparing it with those of U.S.A, Japan, EU.
