1980년대 이후 계속된 디지털 기술의 발전과 영상처리 기술의 발전은 전통적으로 엄격히 분리 운영되어 온 통신과 방송의 융합화를 촉진하고 있으며, 기존의 미디어 질서를 근본적으로 변화시키고 있다. 이에 따라 미국, 영국, 일본 등 선진국에서는 최근의 기술발전 추세와 산업계의 동향을 반영하여 통신사업자와 방송사업자간 상호진입 허용, 규제기구의 통합 등 기존의 규제제도를 전면적으로 재검토하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 세계적인 흐름과 비교하여 볼 때 우리나라의 법, 제도 정비 및 정책적 대응은 매우 미진한 상태이다. 현행법은 아직까지 통신망과 방송망간 융합, 사업자간 융합을 엄격히 규제하고 있으며, 서비스의 규제방식 등 통신.방송융합시대에 대비한 규제제도 정비가 아직까지 미흡한 실정이다. 본 고에서는 통신, 방송융합의 배경과 전개과정, 국내외 융합추진 현황을 살펴보고, 통신.방송융합 현상에 따른 규제제도상의 과제를 검토하고자 한다.

The purpose of the study is to suggest contents, and a range of a Nonnative Theory and a practice for overcoming a crisis of the Mass media. In order to achieve the purpose of the study, a limitation and implication of Social Responsibility Theory was looked into by investigating a Hutchins Report. Hutchins Report suggested the related points at moral duty and legal obligation in implementing mass media's Social Responsibility and Accountability, with relations in publics and community. However, within a view point of a lack of Accountability, Social Responsibility Theory limited responsibility to the realm of 'function', 'self-regulation' and 'self-ethics', In order to promote mass media's quality and serve to rehabilitate its reliability under the pluralistic media system, the contents of Social Responsibility and its scope should be suggested. Media Accountability is a starting point to draw out the contents and scope of Social Responsibility and also a valid democratic plan for mass media to 'social self-regulation' through the mutual communication with civil society. For future Social Responsibility and Media Accountability that is suitable for various mass media, and contents and a range should be defined.

This study proposes the evolution model of emerging media platform including smart media (M-IPTV, Smart TV) and IPTV, through a spiral evolution model based on the theory of the exploration & the exploitation. Authors suppose that the IP media evolved from IPTV technology, evolution of which has come through the development model of serial circular process. For explanation of this evolution, we propose the research model integrating the spiral model and the exploration & exploitation theory. Researchers define the smart media as the evolved media from IPTV, through this proposed model. We expect this model to be the theoretical base of media regulation and setting direction of future media service. Thus, this research are summed up as follows. To begin with, we classify the evolutionary stage of IPTV from the view points of service feature, regulation frame and technological characters. Secondly, we organize and confirm the research model of IPTV evolution through case analysis of the 3 cycles of each evolutionary stage. As a result, discussion of this study helps understanding mobile IP media and smart media as a post IPTV and leads the solution of various regulation issues and the development of the innovative media service and content. In addition, it can guide the government for the evolutionary direction to promote the media and the content industry.

As contents go digital and networks go broadband, there are a lot of changes made to Ad market caused by multimedia and multichannel environment. While platforms as the contents distribution window are increasing, the reality is that additional Ad revenue through platforms is concentrated on mammoth exclusive media because there are small number of the media that has control over platforms is able to create production and provide capital. In addition, as Media rep laws is passed at the Assembly plenary session, tipping effect in Ad market concentrated to some media. In this reality, pay TV market is expected to be within its direct orbit as it is predicted to produce new contents and distribution growth thanks to a wide variety of genres and experimental challenge. Thus, this study is to propose the methodology and an alternative for pay Ad market expansion. As the result of this research, an improvement scheme of indirect advertisement, virtual advertisement, and prohibited advertising item is suggested, and methodology for advertising market expansion is suggested through enterprise and government.

This study aims to analyze the social and legal status of Internet personal broadcasting in Korea and propose the direction of personal broadcasting regulation based on overseas regulatory laws and the media characteristics of Internet broadcasting. The influence of Internet personal broadcasting has increasing, and social and legal problems such as pornography and fake news have also growing. In the absence of legal regulations on personal broadcasting on the Internet, academia is also discussing relevant legislation and policies at a general level of analysis. In addition, the current study argues that new legislative research is needed to respond to the rapidly changing media environment and to cope with the newly introduced Internet broadcasting content and platforms. The findings suggest that freedom of expression is a significant value, yet obscene materials for minors should be thoroughly regulated, and that internet personal broadcasting should be regulated to the minimum extent through self-regulation guidelines through cooperation between councils and related agencies or businesses. The significance of the current study indicates that it proposed the practical and concrete laws for the improvement of the quality of Internet personal broadcasting content, the establishment of new broadcasting policies for fair and diverse content development, and the efficient and fair regulation of personal broadcasting content.

1980년대 이후 계속된 디지털 기술의 발전과 영상처리 기술의 발전은 전통적으로 엄격히 분리 운영되어 온 통신과 방송의 융합화를 촉진하고 있으며, 기존의 미디어 질서를 근본적으로 변화시키고 있다. 이미 통신망과 방송망이 융합하여 하나의 망을 통해 방송서비스와 통신서비스를 동시 제공하는 것이 가능해지고 있으며, VOD, 인터넷방송, FM 방송전파를 통한 무선호출서비스 등 새로운 서비스가 등장하고 있다. 사업자측면에서는 통신사업자와 방송사업자가 상대영역에 진입하거나 M&A를 통해 양 분야의 서비스를 동시에 제공하는 사례가 증가되고 있다. 이에 따라 미국, 영국, 일본 등 선진국뿐만 아니라 EU 차원에서도 최근의 기술발전 추세와 산업계의 동향을 반영하여 통신사업자와 방송사업자간 상호진입 허용, 규제기구의 통합 등 기존의 규제제도를 전면적으로 재검토하고 있다. 미국의 1996년 통신법 개정, EU의 대체인프라스트럭쳐 자유화정책, 영국과 일본에서의 CATV망을 통한 통신서비스제공 허용 등이 그 대표적인 사례이다. 그러나 이러한 세계적인 흐름과 비교하여 볼 때 우리나라의 법/제도 정비 및 정책적 대응은 매우 미진한 상태이다. 현행법은 아직까지 통신망과 방송망간 융합, 사업자간 융합을 엄격히 규제하고 있으며, 서비스의 규제방식 등 통신·방송 융합시대에 대비한 규제제도 정비가 아직까지 미흡한 실정이다. 본 고에서는 통신·방송 융합의 배경과 전개과정, 국내외 융합추진 현황을 살펴보고, 통신·방송 융합 현상에 따른 규제제도상의 과제를 제시하고자 하였다.

Up until now, Korea has been recognized as one of the most severe and strict countries in terms of social regulation. As a result of that, it is generally accepted that economic activities in private sector have been contracted to some extent, weakening national competitiveness. Under this background, this paper examines the complex relationships among factors affecting national competitiveness and regulation and also seeks to discover feedback loops associated with its relationship. The research result shows that reinforcing feedback and balancing feedback loops are found in the system concerned with national competitiveness and regulation. Accordingly, it implies that we need to pay our attention to the management of those loops in order to discover the optimal point striking the balance between regulation and deregulation in terms of national competitiveness. It also implies that we need to conduct sensitivity analysis to forecast the potential results which the scenarios will bring about.
