한나라당 김성수 국회의원과 협회가 공동 주최하고, 축산신문사가 주관한 긴급 정책 토론회가 12월 15일 국회 귀빈식당에서 열렸다. 한 EU FTA 발효에 이어 한 미 FTA도 국회비준을 통해 발효를 앞두고 있는 시점에 낙농강국인 호주, 뉴질랜드와도 FTA가 진행 중에 있다. 축산업, 그 중 단연 낙농분야 피해가 가장 클 것으로 예상되지만 정부의 낙농산업 유지를 위한 피해보전 대책은 전무한 실정이다. 이날 토론에서는 정부의 주제발표와 각계 지정토론이 이어졌으며 FTA 시대 낙농산업 유지를 위한 여러 의견들이 제시되었다.

Although there is a lot of literature on the effectiveness of regional trade agreements(RTAs), it is usually analyzed only using trade-related theories and data. However, this paper has a differentiation in that we examine the linkage between international trade and financial markets through the stock markets reactions when the trade agreements related news arrived. Specifically, using an event study, we look into the Korea-US free trade agreement(KORUS FTA) which is the most commercially significant FTA in almost two decades for both the countries. Korean stock market generally responded more sensitively to FTA news than the US stock market, especially in 'Auto & Parts', 'Electrical Equipment' and 'Chemicals' industries. And the investors' perception toward the effect of KORUS FTA on Korean industries changed from negative to positive as negotiations proceed. Korea has a comparative advantage in the production of labor-intensive goods relative to US, but the economies of scale hypothesis does not hold.

There is an expanding global network of free trade agreements (FTA). High-quality, comprehensive free trade agreements play an important role to support global trade liberalization and are explicitly allowed under the World Trade Organization (WTO) rules. An FTA is an international treaty that removes barriers to trade and facilitates stronger trade and commercial ties that contribute to increased economic integration between participating countries. Korea benefits from the global FTA trend; however it has started and developed FTA negotiations later than other countries. Current FTA agreements exist with Chile, Singapore, EFTA, ASIAN, India, EU, Peru, USA, Turkey, Australia, and Canada; in addition, there are ongoing negotiations with China, Colombia, New Zealand, and Vietnam. FTA open up opportunities for the textile/clothing industry to expand businesses into key overseas markets. FTA improve market access across all areas of trade to help maintain and stimulate the competitiveness of textile/clothing firms. This study examines the expansion of free trade agreements in light of changes in the international trade environment and the status of the Korean textile/clothing industry. Korea's textile/clothing export/import products and concession of tariff, country of origin covered under Korea-US/China FTA are investigated to identify problems. This study provides practical and policy implications for the textile/clothing industry in regards to the Korea-US/China FTA.

의약품 산업은 소득 수준의 향상에 따라 건강에 대한 관심이 고조되고, 과학 기술의 발달에 따라 난치병 치료제가 개발되면서 세계 의약품 시장이 지속적으로 성장하고 있어, 21세기의 가장 주목 받는 차세대 성장 동력 산업 중 하나로 분류 된다. 이러한 의약품 산업은 정밀 화학이나 생명 공학 기술의 첨단 산업 분야로서 고도의 두뇌 인력을 필요로 하는 고부가가치 산업이기 때문에, 부존자원이 빈약하고 인적자원이 풍부한 우리나라의 경우 차세대 성장 동력 산업으로 육성하여야 하는 산업이다. 본 논문은 2007년 4월 2일 한${\bullet}$미 FTA 의약품 분야 체결이 한국 의약품 유통에 미치는 영향올 분석 및 검토한 후, 국내 제약사의 위기 상황을 극복하기 위한 대응 방안으로서 새로운 사업 모델인 셀프 메디케이션의 활용 방안에 대해 연구하였으며, 전략적 관점에서 선택과 집중의 이슈를 유형별로 나눈 후 국내 제약사의 강점인 일반 의약품, 대체 의약품 시장의 효율성과 기능을 강화할 수 있는 방안에 대해 연구하였다. 이를 위해 의약품의 특정과 경로 별 유통구조의 특정 그리고 우리나라와 선진국의 사례를 비교 분석한 결과 유럽 제약회사의 경우처럼 R&D 등 기술 혁신에 필요한 투자가 부족하면 세계의약품 시장의 경쟁에서 뒤떨어지고, 반대로 쥴릭 파마 코리아의 경우처럼 선진 다국적 물류회사의 국내 의약품 도매시장 석권이라는 현상도 알 수 있었다. 또한 미국과 FTA를 체결한 국가들의 많은 부작용 사례와 한${\bullet}$미 FTA 의약품 분야의 이슈를 비교 검토한 결과 많은 부정적 영향이 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 국내 제약사의 위기 상황을 극복하기 위해 셀프 메디케이션을 전략적 관점에서 선택과 집중의 이슈에 대해 국내 제약사의 유형별로 대웅 방안을 제시하였다.

The aim of this paper is to review KORUS FTA Rules of Origin. Although there are some differences in terms of structure and contents, KORUS FTA Rules of Origin is not much different from the other FTA's texts that Korea has already concluded. Textile and Apparel chapter is also separately specified. For textile and apparel goods, Korea and the US agreed to adopt 'yam-forward rule', allowing exceptions for certain goods. Both sides also agreed to introduce procedures for permitting to use non-Party's materials when fibers ryarns rfabrics are not available in commercial quantities. Overall evaluation on KORUS FTA is considered to be positive. Economically, KORUS FTA is expected to provide good opportunities for Korean companies to access the US market. Politically, Korea and the US can take advantage of KORUS FTA to reinforce the relationship between the two countries.

작년 12월에 마무리된 한미 FTA 5차 협상 이후 향후 협상에 대한 각종 전망과 예측이 난무하고 있지만 현재 어느 것도 확실한 것은 없다. 다만 보호무역주의 경향을 띠고 있는 민주당의 압승으로 끝난 미 중간 선거와 3차례나 반송 조치된 미국산 쇠고기의 무조건적인 수입을 원하는 미국의 억지를 보았을 때 앞으로의 한미 FTA 협상이 제대로 진행되기는 어렵다는 것이 대부분의 전망이다. 때문에 오는 1월 15일부터 19일까지 서울에서 개최되는 한미 FTA 6차 협상에서 쟁점이 되는 분야와 한미 양국이 가지고 있는 협상전략은 무엇인지 파악해보는 것 또한 앞으로 협상이 나아갈 방향을 예상해 보는 방법이 될 수 있다. 더불어 다시 한 번 협상 쟁점이 가지는 의미를 되새겨보는 계기도 될 수 있을 것이다.

Recently, Korea have experienced numbers of FTAs with other countries, including Chile, EFTA(European Free Trade Association), Singapore, ASEAN(Association of South-East Asian Nations), and U.S. In particular, FTA with U.S. are expected to cause huge impact on food markets as well as agricultural sector in Korea. Many researches have analyzed and discussed about the impact on agricultural sector after Korean-U.S. FTA, but very small number of studies focus on the impact of Korean-U.S. FTA on food markets. The purpose of the paper is to discuss the impact of Korea-U.S. FTA on Korean dairy market. For the numerical simulations, this paper focus on the impact on cheese and butter markets. The results of numerical analysis in the paper will be helpful for the future research, because few (maybe no) studies conduct the numerical analysis to measure the impact of Korea-U.S. FTA on Korean food market.

This paper describes the characteristics and outline of rules of origin among Korea and USA, EU, ASEAN. The main focus of this paper is to conduct comparative analysis on rules of origin. Rules of origin are used to determine the country of origin of a product for purposes of international trade. There are two common types of rules of origin depending upon application, the preferential and non-preferential rules of origin Non-preferential rules of origin are used to determine the country of origin for certain purposes. The basis for the non-preferential rules originates from the Kyoto convention which states that if a product is wholly obtained or produced completely within one country the product shall be deemed having origin in that country. For a product which has been produced in more than one country, the product shall be determined to have origin in the country where the last substantial transformation took place. To determine exactly what was the last substantial transformation, three general rules are applied : Change of tariff classification(on any level, though 4-digit level is the most common), Value added-rule.(ad-valorem), and Specific process rule. While criteria of wholly obtained or produced in one country is almost similar to those of theses area and countries, in compliance with value percentages of Substantial Transformation, sufficient working or processing, Korea-US FTA adapts 'Regional Value Content', meanwhile Korea-EU FTA adapts 'Import Content' rule. Finally, Korea-US FTA and ASEAN FTA adapt FOB price for the calculation value added, on the other hand Korea-EU FTA adapts EXW price.
