The purpose of Inequality Index Decomposition is to know the cause of overall inequality through decomposing aggregate inequality index into relevant components. Previous studies have mostly focused on the absolute contribution meaning that how much each component possesses out of overall inequality. However it could be more important to know the marginal contribution and inequality effect of each component in order to implement policies reducing overall inequality effectively. For this, we decomposed Gini Coefficient as representative inequality index into income sources or social welfare programs and calculated each Gini Income Elasticity(GIE). Analysis result says that regular employee income and employer(or the self-employed) income, of which GIE are 1.205 and 1.867, are classified as inequality-increasing income source. GIE can be one of good methods to analyse the inequality effect of various income sources and social welfare programs.

This paper examined the nonlinear relationships between external knowledge sources and the innovation performance of SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises). Using 3,218 firm-year panel data in South Korea, this study found that increasing the number of external knowledge channels out of the value chain increases radical innovation. Meanwhile, increasing the number of external knowledge channels within the value chain increases the incremental innovation. Further, the external sources of knowledge both out of and in the value chain had inverted U-shaped relationships on radical and incremental innovation respectively. This finding implies that a mechanism of diminishing returns works in the relationship between the external sources of knowledge and innovation. The study also identified the synergistic effects between the external sources of knowledge out of the value chain and within the value chain, and confirmed that the synergistic effects strengthen the linear mechanism between the external sources of knowledge and innovation. In addition, this study found that the sources of knowledge both out of and within the value chain positively moderate the relationships between R&D investment and radical innovation of SMEs.

Entrepreneurs usually require financing for starting their businesses. Their primary source may be personal savings, family and friends' funds, or loans from banks and other financial institutions. Immigrant and native entrepreneurs may differ in their sources of financing, and their differences in sources may depend on their societal context. The research questions are, how does an entrepreneur's migration status -immigrant versus native-influence primary source of financing, and how is this influence moderated by wealth of the country? Data are a sample of 14,369 immigrant and native owner-managers of starting businesses in 29 countries, surveyed in the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor, and analyzed by hierarchical mixed models. Analyses reveal that immigrant and native entrepreneurs similarly frequently have their personal savings and family as the primary source of funding. Native entrepreneurs, more often than immigrant entrepreneurs, have banks and other financial institutions as the primary source of funding. Immigrants, more often than native entrepreneurs, have friends and yet other sources as the primary source of funding. These effects of migration status upon source of financing, however, are moderated by the national context, in that wealth of the country boosts the immigrants' use of friends and other sources of financing.

This paper analyzes the impact of information breach on shareholder value by measuring the stock price reaction associated with the announcements of data breach. The breach firms in the sample lost, on average, 1.3% of their market value, amounting to 98.9 million won of loss within two-day of the event period after the announcement. We examine the abnormal returns in various categories (i.e., source, type, size, etc.) of information breach. Although the market does not react significantly to the announcements of outside breach, we find statistically significant market reactions to inside breach. We estimate abnormal returns over the following 60 days. The mean 60-day cumulative abnormal return and BHAR (buy-and-hold abnormal returns) are both significantly far from zero. We conclude that there is a coherent market reaction following the announcement. The difference between the market reactions to IT firms and Non-IT firms is statistically significant. But breach amount, firm size, and the year the breach occurred do not show to be significant variables.

본 연구는 인터넷 쇼핑몰의 고객만족과 지속사용의도를 예측하기 위해 구매 경험자를 대상으로 구매의사 결정 시 이용한 정보에 대한 사후 만족 측정을 통해 정보원천의 중요성과 영향력을 규명하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 인터넷 쇼핑몰에서의 구매와 관련된 기대형성에 정보원천이 미치는 영향과 전통적인 기대불일치 패러다임하에서 기대불일치와 만족간의 관계를 온라인 환경에서는 정보만족이 매개함을 살펴보았다. 분석결과 첫째, 정보원천 중 자신의 구매경험이 기각되었으며 반면 다른 소비자의 소비경험인 온라인 구전정보가 가장 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 전통적인 기대불일치이론과 달리 인터넷 쇼핑몰에서는 전반적 만족에 대한 정보만족의 매개효과가 나타났다. 셋째, 전반적 만족에 대해 정보만족이 직접효과가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 의사결정 유용성은 전반적인 만족과 지속사용의도에 직접 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 온라인 환경에서의 정보의 중요성을 실증한 것으로 정보를 통한 기대관리, 정보만족을 기반으로 한 고객만족과 지속사용을 예측할 수 있게 해준다.

경제력 집중에 따른 부작용을 원천적으로 치유하거나 시장규율을 통하여 치유하기에는 오랜 시간이 필요하고 그 효과가 매우 더디다는 점이 인정된다. 또한, 계열사간 출자, 지급보증, 그리고 상호주는 이론상 어느 정도 긍정적인 측면을 갖는 것도 인정되므로, 원천적 치유가 가능한 시기까지 존재하는 경제적 부작용을 필요악으로 인정하고 그대로 둘 것이 아니라 한시적이나마 정부가 일정한 역할을 할 필요가 있다고 할 때, 그리고 현 자본시장의 감시 및 견제기능이 제대로 작동하지 않는다고 파악할 때 경제력 집중을 억제하기 위한 정책수단인 출자총액제한, 지금보증, 그리고 상호주에 대한 규제는 어느 정도 설득력을 갖는다.

Digital Social Innovation, social innovation utilizing digital technology, is gaining attenntion as an innovative new way of solving pressing social problems such as ageing, traffic, unemployment etc. while some raise concerns as to the negative impact of digital technology on society associated with Share-the-Scraps-economy and On-demand-economy. The paper aims to address these concerns by examining the nature and source of business values generated in digital social innovation. Donation, cooperation/solidarity and sharing are identified as sources of business value from social innovation. Digitization, Platform may present infrastructure upon which efficiency of economic transaction can be elevated. The participation of consumers/users in the value chain and value network enabled by digital technology is identified and discussed as the critical source of business value in digital social innovation. The business model of Docksan-dong Happy Parking Street living lab project is analysed to illuminate the realization of business vaules in real life setting. Policy recommendations and future research directions are suggested.

산업구조의 고도화과정에서 개별기업들은 세분화된 전문영역의 가치활동을 담당할 수밖에 없으며, 대신 개별 기업들이 가치활동의 네트워크적 연결체제를 구축함으로써 시스템 간 경쟁체제로 이행되게 된다. 본 연구는 시스템간 경쟁상황 속에서 기업간 네트워크적 연결구조가 과연 어떠한 전략적 유효성원천을 가지는가에 관하여 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 경쟁력원천의 4가지 유형인 4 S 즉, Scale merit(규모의 경제성), Scope merit(범위의 경제성), Speed merit(속도의 경제성), System merit(시스템의 경제성)의 변천과정을 분석하였다. 시스템간 경쟁의 상황 속에서 지금까지의 경제성개념으로 설명할 수 없는 새로운 경제성 효과가 나타나게 되는데 이를 시스템경제성과 연결 경쟁력이란 개념을 통해 그 내용과 경쟁력제고의 전략적 시사점을 제시하였다. 향후 정보기술이 발전하면서 기업간 네트워킹관계를 통해 분업된 가치활동들의 연결이 보다 고도화될 것이며, 시스템 경제성의 여러 원천들이 상호 시너지적으로 결합되면서 연결경쟁력을 중심으로 한 경영패러다임의 중요성은 더욱 커질 것이다.

In this study, we have examined how the potential users of IT convergence product use the external information sources for purchasing decision focusing on a case of smartphone. Although the specifications and price of IT convergence products, such as smartphone, tablet pc, and smart TV, are considered as major criteria for purchasing decision, the competitiveness of these factors have disappeared as many companies launch similar products in the market. External information sources play a significant role to differentiate the alternatives by offering value-added experience information. The effect of external information sources becomes stronger for experience and high-involvement product whose performance can be evaluated through only users' direct experience. In this study, we categorized the external information sources for smartphone into five; company ads, personal network, expert group, consumers, and media. Through an empirical study with potential smartphone users, we verified how these external information sources affect users' purchasing decision in the perspective of the perceived attributes of information source, quality of information, and individual's characteristics based on self-regulatory theory.
