This paper reviews the distinctive characteristics between e-Trade and e-Commerce in view of commercial arbitration in Korea and explores several improvements for the role of commercial arbitration. As the volume of e-Trade and e-Commerce has expanded day by day, there will be more disputes between traders no matter where the commerce may occur. But despite increasing of the disputes relating to e-Commerce transaction, it seems that the role of commercial arbitration has been shrunk instead. Korea needs to improve the role of commercial arbitration in order to meet and lead the age of u-Trade Hub(u-TH) service and to adopt an offensive or active attitude when arbitration used. Moreover, it is suggested that the competence of arbitration should not only be intensified more precisely but also be redesigned more systematically. Korea should take advantage of arbitration resources actively such as arbitrators as human resource and experiences as knowledge assets and also prepare the policy for sharing those arbitration resources between arbitrators more effectively.

시공을 하다가 손해를 보았는데도 발주자 혹은 원도급업체에서 인정을 안해준다면 어떻게 해야 할까? "소송을 할까?", "다음 공사는 어떻게 해. 그냥 손해보고 말지 뭐", "아니야 그냥 넘어가기에는 너무 억울해" 설비건설업을 하다보면 누구나 한번쯤 이런 경험이 있었을 것이다. 이럴 경우 공정거래위원회에 문의 하거나 건설하도급분쟁조정협의회에 문의하다가 정 안될 경우 소송에 돌입한다. 소송의 경우 대법원의 최종 판결이 나기까지 2~3년은 고스란히 걸림은 물론 소송비용도 만만치 않다. 이렇게 기간이 길지 않고 가격도 저렴하면서 해결 가능한 방법은 없을까? 물론 있다. 공정거래위원회에 제소하면 된다. 공정거래위원회는 국무총리 소속의 장관급 중앙행정기관이자 합의제 준사법기관으로서 경쟁정책을 수립 · 운영하며 공정거래관련 사건을 심결 · 처리하는 역할을 하고 있다. 정부는 지난 84년 하도급자보호 및 소비자의 보호를 위해 「하도급거래공정화에 관한 법률 」과 「약관의규제에 관한 법률」을 84년과 86년에 각각 제정함으로써 상대적으로 약자인 하도급자도 법의 보호를 받게 되었다. 본지는 지난 7월호 대한상사중재원의 '중재제도'에 이어 이번 8월호에서는 건설하도급분쟁조정협의회를 게재했고, 이번호에는 공정거래위원회에 대하여 게재한다.

Mediation is one of several alternatives to litigation or arbitration. It is the most informal of the alternatives and the only one that gives the parties control over the outcome. The mediator in mediation is there to help the parties persuade each other that it is in their best interests to settle. As several advantages of mediation, it is considered as the fastest way to resolve a dispute because procedures associated with litigation are not imported into the process. In mediation, the client's resources are focused on resolving the dispute as opposed to building armaments of evidence to buttress legal and factual positions. The AAA commercial mediation rules and operations in the USA are very successful owing to professional training for mediators and simple procedures for mediation to the public. Comparison with USA mediation, KCAB mediation system has several weak points. KCAB mainly deals with administrative matters related to Foreign Trade Law. Therefore, it is necessary for KCAB to come up with more improved international commercial mediation. For example, mediation should be promoted to the public as who easily rely on litigation or arbitration. Second, Setting a rule for easy access to mediation is needed by bench marking AAA's mediation guidelines and operations. Third, professional mediators should be developed by establishing relevant ADR course in law schools. This article investigated some differences of mediation system between KCAB in Korea and AAA in USA, and present some suggestions in order to promote International commercial mediation in KCAB.

It is well recognized that the availability of prompt, effective and economical means of dispute resolution is an important element in the orderly growth and encouragement of international trade and investment. Increasingly, arbitration, instead of litigation in national courts, has become the preferred means of resolving private international commercial disputes. Under the situation, it will be important thing for arbitral institutions to reach an agreement to promote the dispute settlement of the commercial disputes, for which efforts have been made between the Korean Commercial Arbitral Board(KCAB) and principal arbitration institutions of the foreign countries. Since 1973, the KCAB has entered into many arbitration agreements with well-known foreign institutions of arbitration. If the place of arbitration is not so designated by the parties, it, as a general rule, shall be the country of the respondent(s) under the Korea-Japanese Arbitration Agreement. On the other hand, the U.S.-Korean Commercial Arbitration Agreement maintains 'Joint Arbitration Committee which finally decide the place of arbitration. In 1996, the Korea-Austria Agreement of Cooperation was concluded for the prompt and equitable settlement on an amicable basis of commercial disputes. Under this Agreement, arbitral institutions between Korea and Austria agreed to act as an appointing authority in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules. It is also very important for Korea and China including North Korea to cooperate each other for the settlement of the commercial disputes within the Pan Yellow Sea Economic Bloc(PYSEB). The PYSEB is quickly becoming a distinctive and crucial region in the world sharing geographical proximity, many common historical experiences, and similar cultural norms and values although they have disparities in stages of development, trade and economic policies, and financial and legal frameworks. Finally, it should be considered to establish a central common system for settlement promotion of the commercial disputes within the PYSEB through the arbitration agreement. Such a dispute resolution system was already introduced and established within the area of the NAFTA, and it is called the Commercial Arbitration and Mediation Center for the Americas(CAMCA).

The resumption of economic cooperation between South and the North Korea will be a new growth engine for our economy. Many Korean companies are preparing to invest in North Korea in accordance with the progress of inter-Korean relations. However, there are many risks inherent in inter-Korean economic cooperation, as experienced in previous cases. Specifically, one should be prepared for unfair measures such as the expropriation of investment assets of South Korean enterprises by North Korea authorities. Therefore, it is essential to review the protection measures of investment in North Korea and to review the investment dispute settlement system. The South and the North have an agreement to establish the inter-Korean Commercial Arbitration Committee to resolve the disputes that may arise if one party's investments are lost due to inappropriate or unfair measures due to the other party's authority. However, the Investment Agreement, which governs the Inter-Korean Commercial Arbitration Committee, contains a number of declarative statements that are somewhat ineffective. Even today, nearly 20 years after the adoption of the Agreement, the specific detailed procedures have shown no real progress, such as in the enactment of arbitration rules. Therefore, at present, it is difficult to expect a system that can effectively address the damage of our corporations which have invested in North Korea. When the assets freeze after the suspension of Kumgang tourism and the closure of the Kaeseung Industrial Complex by North Korea, the activation of the inter-Korean Commercial Arbitration Committee is the most important prerequisite for economic cooperation with North Korea. For this purpose, the resolution of disputes through the Inter-Korean Commercial Arbitration Committee has to be made more concrete, with the effectiveness of the dispute settlement system enhanced by means of various efforts.

It is well recognized that the availability of prompt, effective and economical means of dispute resolution is an important element in the orderly growth and encouragement of international trade and investment. Increasingly, ADR(Alternative Dispute Resolution) including arbitration and mediation, instead of litigation in national courts, has become the preferred means of resolving private international commercial disputes. Under the situation, efforts for settlement of trade and investment disputes by ADR have been made between Korea and China through trade and investment agreements and arbitration agreement. Judging from the importance of economic exchange between Korea and Qingdao including Shandong Province, The Korean Commercial Arbitration Board(KCAB) and The Qingdao Arbitration Commission(QAC) should strengthen mutual cooperation to develop efficient methods of resolving commercial disputes arising between the two countries and to assist parties in solving those disputes through conclusion of arbitral agreement. Recently, efforts for conclusion of a Korea-China-Japan Free Trade Agreement(FTA) received strong support at Korea-Japan and Korea-China Summit Meeting held on June and July, 2003 respectively. If the conclusion of FTA among the three countries would be realized, it would promote regional trade and investment, contributing to economic growth in the Northeast Asian region. Under the circumstances, the key arbitral institutions including KCAB and QAC should consider to take the initiative in setting up tentatively called ${\ulcorner}$Joint Arbitration Center for Northeast Asia${\lrcorner}$ for which the CAMCA of NAFTA will be the good example.

본 연구는 한국의 중재현황을 살펴본 뒤 최근의 학문적 추세를 고려하여 학문융합적 연구방법을 통하여 중재를 연구하는 것이 미래 중재연구방향에 있어 중요함을 밝히고 있다. 한국의 중재현황을 살펴보면, 첫째는 한국의 교역규모와 교역상대국이 증가함에 따라서 분쟁이 증가하면서 중재가 중요한 분쟁해결방식으로 부상하고 있다는 점이다. 둘째, 분쟁의 원인을 살펴보면 대금결제와 매매계약과 관련된 분쟁이 가장 큰 원인이라는 점이다. 셋째, 분쟁당사국들도 유럽을 포함해서 수가 늘어나고 있다는 점이다. 이러한 특정들은 중재를 하나의 학문적 방법론에만 의지해서 연구하는 것이 충분치 않다는 점을 나타내고 있다. 본 연구에서는 학문융합적 중재연구프로그램을 제시하였다. 본 연구는 학문융합적 방법론으로 법학적 방법론, 제도적 방법론, 문화적 방법론, 인과적 방법론, 실증적 방법론을 제시하였으며, 이러한 방법론들을 중재에 도입하여 중재를 학문 융합적으로 분석할 것을 제안하였다. 전통적으로는 법학적 방법론이 중재연구에서 주로 사용한 방법론이었지만 향후 중재는 그 외의 다양한 방법론을 통해서 연구하는 것이 바람직해 보인다.
