The study aims to comprehend the health needs of multicultural families, identify relevant policies, and explore ways to enhance health information accessibility through Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Employing a qualitative research method, the health status of multicultural families was analyzed through literature review, followed by in-depth interviews. The findings revealed a lower priority given to health policies for multicultural families compared to other governmental sectors, with limited discussion on leveraging ICT for improved accessibility. In-depth interviews highlighted four main themes: "Early experiences in Korean society," "Language barriers in medical facilities," "Unmet healthcare needs for various reasons," and "High demand for health-related services." To safeguard health rights and enhance information accessibility, we recommend strengthening linguistic support in healthcare institutions, implementing government efforts for multicultural families, and designing user-centered ICT platforms.

This study is purposed to explain the characteristics of injured workers' labor market situation and to analyze the factors influencing labor market transition of those workers. Using the Worker's Compensation Insurance Panel Data ver.1~3 which was surveyed by the Korean Workers' Compensation & Welfare Service in 2013-2015, this study analyzed 1,668 injured worker cases. The study shows that workers who have experience job retention at least once are 36.8% of all, 51.5% of them have experienced re-employment, and 36.9% have done unemployment. One result of the longitudinal analysis is that socio-demographic factors including gender, age, education years, convalescence period, ability on job performance, company size, term of service, temporary employment, daily-workers status before job accident and job training were associated with return to pre-injury job. The other result is that statistically significant factors affecting the probability to be the unemployed are gender, age, levels of disability, convalescence, ability on job performance, term of service before job accident, job rehabilitation service utilization. These findings indicate that we need to develop efficient intervention programs for supporting return-to-work and labor market transition of injured workers.

There is a growing interest in the entrepreneurial activity that has long been considered essential for sustainable economic development and value creating. Although it is strongly encouraged by focusing on the positive aspects of venturing, less has been paid attention to entrepreneurial failure, which is the biggest cause of hesitation in starting a business. The uncertain and risky nature of entrepreneurship implies a considerable possibility of failure. Even if it fails, the experience and knowledge of entrepreneurs acquired through entrepreneurship indeed offers valuable lessons for the re-venturing, which can serve as an important social asset that should not be lost. It has been argued that re-entering the same industry for the subsequent venture maximizes the learning effect through utilizing potential benefits from industry-specific knowledge. Although the re-startup after entrepreneurial failure is a very important topic in the studies on serial entrepreneurs, there is a paucity of systematic empirical investigation. This study responds to calls for more research on the re-startup after entrepreneurial failure, and specifically complements existing studies on serial entrepreneurs. Focusing on the entrepreneurs' attribution for the failure, we conducted an empirical analysis of how this affects the re-startup process. Moreover, we also examined the moderating effects of entrepreneurial self-efficacy and resilience. For the analyses, we surveyed the entrepreneurs who tried to re-start the subsequent business after the entrepreneurial failure through the "Revitalization Center for Strained Entrepreneur". The results found that failed entrepreneurs who blamed internal factors for their previous venture failures were likely to keep the same industry for their subsequent business. In addition, the positive effect of internal attribution on maintaining the same industry for the re-startup was found to be stronger when entrepreneurial self-efficacy and resilience were high.

석탄가스화 액화기술은 기후변화협약, 환경규제 등에 대응할 수 있고 석유나 천연가스의 고갈에 대비한 에너지의 안정적 확보 차원에서 저공해 고효율화 기술로 평가되고 있다. 석탄가스화 기술은 환경 친화적이고 미분탄 발전과 비교하면 이산화탄소 발생량이 20% 이상 감소돼 향후 기후변화협약 발효에 따른 탄소배출권이 현실화 될 경우를 고려하면 경제적 파급효과는 클 것으로 예상되고 있다. 최근 주요 선진국들은 석탄가스화 액화 실증플랜트 건설 운영을 위해 민간과 정부가 공동 으로 노력 중이며 차세대 발전기술 분야의 수출전략 산업으로 육성하고 있다. 그러나 현재 국내에서는 상용급 IGCC 발전소 건설 경험이 없고 관련 기반 기술이 선진국에 비해 열세이다. 이에 따라 석탄가스화 및 액화기술, 설비제작, 엔지니어링 등 관련 국내기업간의 협력을 통한 기술 및 시장경쟁력 제고방안이 마련돼야 한다는 지적이다. 이번 호에서는 석탄가스화 액화기술에 대해 알아본다.

인류문명사는 미지의 새로운 세계를 개척하고 신기술과 지식을 창조하기 위한 끊임없는 도전의 역사이다. 그 과정에서 남보다 먼저 신대륙을 선점하고 선진기술을 개발한 집단이 세계를 재패해 왔다. 오늘날 지구상에는 탐험할 만한 미지의 대륙이 거의 사라졌다. 하지만 지난 10여년 동안 인류는 컴퓨터와 인터넷에 사이버공간이라는 ‘보이지 않는 대륙(Invisible Continent)’을 창조하고, 그 곳에 인류가 그 동안 창조한 모든 정보와 지식 그리고 기술과 제품들을 차곡차곡 쌓아가고 있다. 특히 최근에는 정보기술의 급속한 발달에 힘입어, 정보기술 선진국들과 일부 다국적 정보통신 기업들은 한 단계 더 발전하여 현실공간과 사이버공간을 융합한 ‘사이버국토’ 또는 ‘사이버도시’, 나아가 ‘사이버지구촌’ 건설에 투자를 확대하고 있다. 사이버국토는 현실국토공간을 사이버공간에 그대로 반영하여 최적융합함으로써, 사이버공간에서 시간·공간·인간 즉 삼간(삼간)을 통합하고, 기존의 모든 디지털활동을 수용하며, 시뮬레이션이 가능한 제2의 국토건설을 지향하고 있다. 또한 사이버국토 건설의 경험과 기술을 바탕으로 향후 전개될 사이버지구촌시대를 선도하고, 건설 과정에서 얻게되는 통합정보기술의 선점을 통해 세계 정상의 정보기술 강국으로 도약하는데 목표를 두고 있다. 이러한 사이버국토를 구축하기 위해서는 관련법률과 제도를 정비하고, 관련기술과 산업을 국가발전의 핵심 엔진으로 육성하며, 대국민 흥보와 관계자 교육을 강화하는 전략이 필요하다.

산업 패러다임과 트랜드의 변화 속에서도 저성장, 고령화는 뉴 노말 시대의 가장 큰 문제점으로 대두되고 있다. 이에 따라 각자도생이 필요하며, 결국 창업이 대세인 시대가 되었다. 성공적인 창업을 위해서는 많은 준비와 실패 노하우의 축적이 필요하나 실패를 용납하지 않는 우리 사회분위기상 이는 쉽지 않다. 조사에 따르면 창업 장애요인으로 '창업실패 및 재기에 대한 두려움', '창업 준비부터 성공까지의 생계유지'가 많은 부분을 차지하고 있다. 이러한 장애요인을 줄이는 방법으로 Hybrid창업을 제시할 수 있으나 국내 많은 기업이 직장인의 겸직을 제한하는 탓에 Hybrid창업이 활성화되지 못하고 있고 관련 연구도 거의 없는 수준이다. 그러나 52시간 근무제로 직장인이 투잡(two-job)을 통한 수익창출 기회는 증가하였고, 고용불안과 은퇴이후를 고민하는 직장인들이 우회 창업하는 경우도 적지 않다. 이러한 Hybrid창업 현상은 조기은퇴, 고령화의 영향으로 계속 증가할 것으로 예상됨에 따라 관련 연구를 축적할 필요가 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 직장인의 Hybrid 창업의도에 미치는 영향요인을 탐색하는데 있다. 본 연구에서는 직장인의 창업가 특성, 창업역량, 경력지향성과 Hybrid창업의도간의 관계와, 직장인의 조직불안 인식의 조절효과를 검증하고자 한다.
