The purpose of this study was to examine the perverted labors of online newspapers' editors in Korea. Online newspaper editors' works were be influenced directly and indirectly by the printed newspaper, the parent company of online newspaper. Their labor conditions were poorer than online newspaper editors'. And online newspapers' editors didn't have status as professionals. They set a premium on Internet traffics on their works. For online newspaper editors' normal labor conditions, the most practical measure was to normalize the editorial system of online newspapers. How to raise the status of online newspaper editors was to secure the online newspapers' editorial right. And to conclude, to improve the quality of online journalism in Korea, the most urgent issue is to improve online newspaper editors' professionalism.

In this study, by extending the model proposed by Fullerton and Kim(2006), we explored the tax interdependency effect to examine the relationship between environmental tax and economic growth. The theoretical model shows that environmental tax cannot always stimulate economic growth if other taxes such as labor or income tax are distorted by environmental taxes. However, environmental tax can boost economic growth if cutting distortionary taxes offset the distortion of taxes, or improvement of abatement knowledge can sufficiently reduce the cost of production. An empirical analysis using 14 OECD countries shows a positive relationship between the increase of implicit energy tax rate and the increase of implicit income tax rate. Meanwhile, empirical analysis does not provide enough evidence to claim that the increase of implicit energy tax decreases implicit labor tax. We can presume that environmental tax policy in Europe did not necessarily mitigate the burden of labor tax.

The information drive of the businesses requires new alternatives in that the promotion of business efficiency through information process technologies ends up conflicting with the protection of information human rights on laborers' side. Nevertheless, apathy on information protection has a tendency to be distorted by the efficiency of the businesses. Should the capital and mass media warn economic red lights, political circles with uneasiness would ignore the significance of information protection on the behalf of business efficiency. Therefore, the importance of information protection is considered a smaller interest than that of business efficiency with the infringements of human rights on laborers' side arising. Informatization of the businesses along with the developments of information process technologies has enabled the management to monitor and control the behaviors of laborers. This new problem needs to establish both information protection mechanism and institutional devices to regulate those labor controls. The security of business activity without human rights infringement warrants both basic rights of the public and spirit of the Constitution. The study suggests the establishment and revision of laws suitable to the period of information human rights. On top of that, the establishment of the basic law for information protection of individuals' with the common principle that integrates the related laws and rules on-off line is needed. This will warrant the active participation of labor unions and create specific alternatives for information protection.

Representation of an entity starts with recognition of its existence, and recording is mutually circular in that it acts as a means to enable the recognition of the existence. No record is left on an unrecognized entity, record is distorted if any, and the distorted reproduction represents the entity, reinforcing its invisibility. Spivak describes those who cannot speak on their own and cannot be represented as subaltern. This paper examines public record, the media and research records of female restaurant workers, identifies the subaltern characteristics and limitations of their records, and suggests the points to be considered and specific roles required for recording the subalterns. If it is possible to increase the possibility of representation by completely recording a person as an entity that contains the times and society, the accountability of the record to provide an account will extend beyond institutions to the times and society, and individuals and community will be established as political subjects.

석탄에 대한 아황산가스 규제가 발전산업에 미치는 제반 효과들을 측정하기 위해서는 생산요소의 왜곡된 분배로 인한 생산비용의 증가 또한 고려하여 암묵요소가격을 이용한 일반비용함수를 추정해야 한다. 아황산가스 규제를 포함한 여러 형태의 규제하에서 생산요소간의 한계기술대체율이 시장가격율과 일치하지 않음으로써 기업들의 생산비용최소화는 이루어지지 않기 때문이다. 1975년부터 1990년까지의 표본기간동안 아황산가스 규제로 인하여 미국 석탄발전소들의 생산비용이 평균적으로 6.1% 증가되었고 아황산가스를 추가적으로 1톤 저감하는데 드는 한계비용을 배출량몫 가중평균치로 측정하면 규제를 받은 기업들은 평균적으로 매년 539달러를 소비하였다. 생산요소인 자본과 노동 그리고 저유황석탄의 수요량은 평균적으로 5.8%, 5.2%, 그리고 29.6% 각각 증가된 반면 고유황석탄 수요량은 0.7% 감소되었으며 규제를 받은 기업들의 연 생산성은 평균적으로 1.52% 감소되었다.

Using the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study 2001 (KLIPS 2001), this paper examines gender differences in the return to education in Korea. On average, there is little difference in return to education between male and female workers. However, this paper provides evidence that the impact of education on wages is greater for female workers compared to that for male workers using three different estimation strategies. First, a simple cohort analysis shows that the estimated returns to education for male and female workers have different patterns by age cohort and this is the main reason we observe little gap in average returns to education between men and women. Second, we find that college degree has a significant impact on women's labor market outcomes, while there is little gain for men in terms of wage levels by having college degree. Finally, when controlling unobservable individual ability level with test scores, education has no significant impact on male workers' wage levels, while the impact of education on wages is considerably large for female workers. All three findings support that the impact of education on labor market outcomes is greater for female workers compared to that for male workers as many researchers have found in other OECD countries.

In this study, we examined the effect of non-cognitive factors on job tenure and tenure using KLIPS. We examine the internal consistency of the big5 personality trait and of the locus of control, and use the parameterized proportional hazards model. As a result, we confirmed that non-cognitive skill such as personality traits and locus of control affect individual labor market performance. Conscientiousness has shown that the job seeking period of adult job seekers is lengthened, thereby lowering the unemployment rate. It can be understood that high attentiveness under uncertainty can misinterpret information, and that lack of decision restricts escape from unemployment. In the tenure analysis, people with internal locus of control tendency were less likely to leave the job due to longer tenure. Those who have internal control can not only be preferred by the organization but also the internal control tendency seems to be the factor that maintains the long-term job because of the motivation and self-control of their actions.

This study investigates the spatial policy of small towns in China. Small towns in China are important in terms of settlement system, rural urbanization and new adaptation to changing situation. It was necessary that they shoud take charge of the tool for solving the problem in rural reform periods. Rural urbanization, which had aimed at transferring the surplus labor smoothlv, was connected with the growth of rural industrialization (a township enterprise). However, the location of township enterprises was so dispersed that the transfer of surplus labors was not satisfactory. Hence, the concentration of the rural industry in small towns has been taken up as an inevitable alternative. Namely, it can be said that changes and adaptation of reform process, such as industrial restructuring and migration, should be integrated and concentrated in small towns.

목재가공용 둥근톱은 노동부 법률 산업안전보건법에 의거 유해위험 기계기구로 명시되어 있어 날접촉예방장치인 덮개를 설치한 후 사용하도록 되어 있다 그러나 둥근톱에 의한 사고는 매년 발생하고 있으며 그 원인의 대부분은 덮개를 설치하지 않은 채 목재를 가공하고 있기 때문이다. 건설현장에서 목수들이 덮개를 설치하지 않은 채 목재를 가공하는 원인을 고찰하고 적절한 대응 조치를 간구하여 작업의 편의성과 작업자의 안전성을 확보하는 일은 대단히 중요한 과제이며 또한 안전장치의 잘못된 사용과 안전장치의 결함으로 사고 발생시에는 근로자에게 미치는 파급효과가 대단함은 물론 왜곡되어 전파되는 특성이 있어 사고의 원인이 마치 안전장치의 사용 때문에 있는 것으로 알려지게 되면 대부분의 근로자들은 안전장치의 부착과 착용을 기피하게 된다. 따라서 작업의 편의성과 적합한 안전장치 및 올바른 사용관리가 무엇보다도 중요하다고 할 수 있다.(중략)
