This paper focuses on finding the way of aerospace industry promotion in Korea compatible with fair trade system under international rules by considering and analysing the WTO subsidy rules and WTO dispute settlement cases. As for subsidy rules in WTO, the paper deals with two matters such as financial contribution and benefit and further studies provisions on the prohibited subsidies and actionable subsidies. And as for the dispute settlement matters, it reviews the Brazil-Canada case and the US-EC case on civil aircraft export subsidies. While aerospace industry in Korea is not yet internationally competitive still requiring government's continuous supports, it must not be in conflict with subsidy rules under WTO mechanism. This paper makes several suggestions to meet these conditions.

In this paper, Two countries have invested directly using the two models Multinational Enterprises, foreign companies doing R&D subsidy policy analysis in their activities to attract. Multinational Enterprises to get the spillover effect from competitors, the introduction of subsidiary R&D resources with an incentive to R&D activities. The government has established a subsidiary to bring the country to foreign Multinational Enterprises for the purpose of improving the technological capabilities of Multinational Enterprises with their parent company R&D to increase the resources by foreign companies in their R&D investment to subsidize R&D activities that have an incentive to attract. In addition, foreign companies and government cooperative R&D by two things also increase the rate of funding for activities to bring the two subsidiaries of multinational R&D has increased the amount of additional resources, the economic interests of both countries get more will increase.

아프리카 사하라 이남지역의 농업 정책가들은 빈농을 위한 보조금 비료가 효율적으로 배분되지 않고 있는 것을 매우 중요한 문제라 인식하고 있다. 즉 보조금 비료가 시장가격으로 비료를 구입할 수 있는 부유한 농가에게 돌아가는 등의 문제점이 발생하고 있다. 결국 빈농을 위한 보조금 비료 프로그램의 원래 목적을 크게 손상시키고 있는 셈이다. 짐바브웨 정부가 시도하고 있는 보조금 비료 프로그램은 소농을 대상으로 배분하고 있으며, 주로 빈농이 대부분인 지역을 그 대상으로 한다. 본 연구는 사하라 이남지역 일부 국가의 사례연구와 짐바브웨 농가를 대상으로 한 설문조사를 바탕으로 수행되었다. 주요 논점은 1)소농을 위한 보조금 비료가 현지 시장가격으로 구입할 수 있는 부농가로 흘러가고 있는지, 2)짐바브웨 농가들의 보조금 비료 배분 프로그램에 대한 인식은 어떠한지 등이다. 짐바브웨 카도모 지역에서 무작위로 100가구를 선정하여 설문조사를 실시하고 분석하였다. 가구당 수입과 보조금 비료의 접근과는 무관한 것으로 나타났고, 현지 시장에서 비료를 사는 것과 가구당 수입과는 유의미한 것으로 나타났다(p=0.0037). 이는 보조금 비료의 수혜자가 현지 시장에서 비료를 살 수 있는 능력을 가지고 있다는 것을 보여 주고 있다. 가구당 수입과 보조금 비료 혜택을 보지 못한 채 비료 없이 작물을 재배하는 것과의 관계를 분석한 결과 유의한 수준을 보이고 있다(p=0.040). 이는 보조금 비료의 획득에 실패했을 때 그 농가들은 결국 비료 없이 농사를 지을 것이라는 것을 보여주는 것이다. 이 프로그램에 대한 많은 농가들의 일반적인 인식은 부농이나 영향력 있는 농가가 빈농에 비해 혜택을 더 보고 있다고 생각한다. 이러한 인식을 가능케 하는 이유는 많은 농가들이 수혜자 선정 과정에 관여하지 못하기 때문에 결국 부농을 위한 프로그램이라는 의심을 가지게 된다는 것이다.

선진국에서는 콘덴싱 보일러의 인기가 매우 높고, 정부차원에서도 적극 권장하고 있다. 일본과 독일 등에서는 콘덴싱 보일러를 설치할 때 정부에서 보조금을 지급하고 있고, 네덜란드와 영국에서는 새로 설치하는 보일러는 콘덴싱 보일러로 해야 한다는 법을 제정, 시행하고 있다.

The Moon government, launched in May 2017, regards telecommunication service as part of people's welfare and is trying to save telecommunication costs. However, the direction of policy presented is assessed as symptomatic approach. This is largely attributable to the a partial improvement approach from the framework of the present mobile telecommunication industry. However if we restart from an essential point of view, the result is likely to be much better. The nation's mobile communication costs are not adequate because the government's role was not sufficient. There is a problem with the mobile phone supply chain, the subsidy payment mechanism, and the billing system. Addressing these complex issues requires the establishment of an independent system of handset distribution from telecommunication companies, ban on discriminative subsidies payment, and adoption of volume rate system. Telecommunications Business Act that defines the service charges to normalize the market might be somewhat useful, but the normal application of the Fair Trade Act is more important.

Korean government has introduced the modal shift grant scheme in July 2010 to help the competitiveness of carriage of rail freight and awarded a grant to private companies shifting mode of transportation from road to rail in the carriage of freight: the additional costs incurred in the modal shift are supported by the government. However, there arise needs for the amendment of the modal shift grant scheme. This study reviewed the modal shift grant schemes of foreign countries, such as EU, UK and Japan, and drew implications. Furthermore, this study suggested the future directions of the modal shift grant scheme from the respects of the maximization of the effects of the grant scheme, continual rail use of existing rail freight, and justification of the grant scheme. Finally, policy measures amending the existing modal shift grant scheme were suggested.

The relationship study between SMEs' R&D and business performance is important research subject. The objective of this paper is to evaluate whether the effectiveness of government's R&D subsidy for SMEs is supported. The positive perspective is that the support policy stimulates the SMEs innovation activities including R&D and thus contributes to the performance, but the negative view is that the support policy rather decreases the firm's own R&D investment and thus the result is not necessarily promising. This paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of government subsidy on SMEs' R&D. This study suggested DID and Random Effect Models for analysis using the panel data of 2,807 SMEs in manufacturing sector. The data was collected from the 'Survey on SMEs Technology & R&D 2011' conducted by Korea Federation of Small and Medium Business. The results are as follows. First, government's subsidy has crowded out 4.7% of beneficiary's internal R&D investment. Second, government's subsidy has increased 27.3% of beneficiary's R&D intensity in spite of 4.7% internal R&D investment reduction. Third, government's subsidy didn't have a relationship with firm performance but the R&D intensity made positive influence on the firm performance. Finally, R&D intensity has increased the 6.7% of firm performance. These results mean that government's subsidy give a positive impact on SMEs' performance through R&D intensity with relatively small crowding-out effect.

Recently we have found some symptoms that R&D fiscal incentives might not work well what it has intended through the analysis of current statistics of firm's R&D data. Firstly, we found that the growth rate of R&D investment in private sector during the recent decade has been slowdown. The average of growth rate (real value) of R&D investment is 7.1% from 1998 to 2005, while it was 13.9% from 1980 to 1997. Secondly, the relative share of R&D investment of SME has been decreased to 21%('05) from 29%('01), even though the tax credit for SME has been more beneficial than large size firm, Thirdly, The R&D expenditure of large size firms (besides 3 leading firms) has not been increased since late of 1990s. We need to find some evidence whether fiscal incentives are effective in increasing firm's R&D investment. To analyse econometric model we use firm level unbalanced panel data for 4 years (from 2002 to 2005) derived from MOST database compiled from the annual survey, "Report on the Survey of Research and Development in Science and Technology". Also we use fixed effect model (Hausman test results accept fixed effect model with 1% of significant level) and estimate the model for all firms, large firms and SME respectively. We have following results from the analysis of econometric model. For large firm: i ) R&D investment responds elastically (1.20) to sales volume. ii) government R&D subsidy induces R&D investment (0.03) not so effectively. iii) Tax price elasticity is almost unity (-0.99). iv) For large firm tax incentive is more effective than R&D subsidy For SME: i ) Sales volume increase R&D investment of SME (0.043) not so effectively. ii ) government R&D subsidy is crowding out R&D investment of SME not seriously (-0.0079) iii) Tax price elasticity is very inelastic (-0.054) To compare with other studies, Koga(2003) has a similar result of tax price elasticity for Japanese firm (-1.0036), Hall((l992) has a unit tax price elasticity, Bloom et al. (2002) has $-0.354{\sim}-0.124$ in the short run. From the results of our analysis we recommend that government R&D subsidy has to focus on such an areas like basic research and public sector (defense, energy, health etc.) not overlapped private R&D sector. For SME government has to focus on establishing R&D infrastructure. To promote tax incentive policy, we need to strengthen the tax incentive scheme for large size firm's R&D investment. We recommend tax credit for large size film be extended to total volume of R&D investment.
