This study explores the academic development of the Political Economy of Communication, which is pursued by reviewing academic characteristics, research subjects, key scholars, formal and informal institution as an academic hub, key articles, major academic associations and academic journals. In addition, this study examines important theoretical limitations and tasks to deal with in the future, which have been exposed through several heated debates with other research traditions such as Cultural Studies and Post Modernism.

Unification means the change of the economic system from 'Planned Economy' of the North Korea to 'Market Economy' of the South Korea. Therefore, it may cause confusions and difficulties for North Koreans who have been under planned economy for ages. So, we need to take the perspective of behavioral economics for the effective education. First of all, it is about overall finance, which contains the record of financial transactions, effect of inflation, investors' bounded rationality, and choice difficulty of financial products. Second, it is about borrowings, which includes the credit management, interest rate of difference among financial institutions. Third, it is about investment on financial products, which includes the effect of cost on returns, difference between compound interest and simple interest, trade-off between expected return and risk, market and non-market risks, the importance of diversification, and passive & aggressive investments.

오늘날 교통계획분야에서 개별적, 행태론적 선택모형의 사용이 급격히 일반화 되어 가고 있는 추세를 보이고 있다. 이는 종래의 집합적 모형에 비하여, 구조적으로 경제학에서 말하는 이성적 선택행위를 보다 잘 설명하고 있어, 선택행위의 인과관계를 나타낸다고 보여 지기 때문이다. 그러나 이들 모형이 주어진 선택범위내에서의 선택만을 다루고 있어, 선택범 위를 결정하는데 임의성이 내재되어 있을 뿐만 아니라, 선택대상이 많은 경우에는 곤란하다 는 것이 문제점으로 지적되고 있다. 본 논문에서는, 선택행위에 관한 경제학적, 심리학적 이 론에 근거하여 비교적 실용적인 선택범위결정과정을 개발하여 기존의 개별적, 행태론적 모 형과 복합적으로 활용할수 있는 방안을 제시하였다.

There has been growing interest in the methods for measuring the credits of individual authors in multi-authored research papers in response to the increase of research collaboration. Having a good understanding for academic norms of individual discipline is essential to measure author credit effectively. However, many Korean universities do not consider different norms for determining the order of authors across disciplines. Rather, they tend to use a standardized method to assess the credits of authors in multi-authored papers. Therefore, this study presented some problems of applying a standardized method to measure author credits in multi-authored papers in economics. The findings of this study confirmed the frequent use of alphabetical author order in economics papers; however, many university guidelines for research evaluation do not take account the alphabetical authorship in measuring the credits of authors. The authors suggest the needs for (1) establishment of a clear definition for primary authors, (2) flexibility in assessment methods for author credit, and (3) empirical research on author credit.

Star is riddled with myth while they form the star power and support advertisers for profit realization. Their influence on society and audiences grows day by day. In particular, advertisers depend on star power when they sell their products. This article analyzed the nature of the star power dominating media resources and offering the distorted picture of consumer culture. I take a political economic view of consumer capitalism and star. The article shows how stars contribute to the accumulation of capital and defense of class relations in the consumer culture.

산업화시대 이래로 과학기술의 진보, 물질문명의 발달과 더불어 에너지 소비량도 폭발적으로 증가하여 왔다. 이로 인한 환경문제, 지구온난화 등 범지구적인 차원의 이슈가 발생하였다. 기후변화에 대처하기 위한 에너지 절약은 정책당국자, 학계, 산업계뿐만 아니라 일반시민들에게 있어서도 오랫동안 고민되어온 화두가 되어 오고 있다. 또한, 최근 발생한 일본의 원자력 방사능 유출건도 일본 수도권의 막대한 전기 소비량을 뒷받침하기 위해 건설된 발전소로 인한 2차 피해라는 측면에서 보다 안전하고 환경 친화적 재생적인 에너지에 대한 관심은 더욱 높아갈 수 밖에 없는 실정이다. 그러나 이를 위해 수많은 캠페인들이 행해져 왔음에도 불구하고 에너지 과소비는 여전히 해결되지 않고 있는 난제 중에 하나이다. 이러한 오랜 이슈를 해결하기 위해 기존의 에너지 절감 정책의 틀에서 벗어나 인간의 실질적인 소비행태에 변화를 주려는 대안 모색을 목표로 경제학의 새로운 패러다임인 행동주의 경제학의 프레임워크를 동원하여 효과적인 에너지 절감방안을 사람들의 제한적 합리성에 근거하여 모색하고자 한다. 더불어 이러한 시도는 최신 IT기술과의 융합을 통해 그 효율성을 극대화할 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 행동주의 경제학의 이론적 개념과 실질적인 적용사례를 살펴보고, IT기술의 융합을 시도할 때 고려해야할 사항들에 대해서도 논의를 전개해 나갈 것이다. 이를 통해, 효과적이고 효율적인 에너지 절감정책을 발견하기 위한 정보의 전달방식, 정보의 영향력, 편익측면의 제약사항 등에 대한 다양한 실험적인 연구들을 촉구하고자 한다.

We empirically verified whether there are different educational investment behaviors according to university admissions, using the Korean Education and Employment Panel data. The results are as follows; the average annual private education cost and the average amount of time spent studying alone per week of rolling admission type were lower than those of regular admission type. Also, rolling admission applicants had longer leisure and sleeping hours, such as watching TV and using computers. These results show the possibility that the university admission system will change the educational investment behavior. Furthermore, there is a possibility to induce the human capital investment to be made efficiently.

본 연구에서는 신제품의 경제성 분석에 있어 기존연구의 분리된 방법론을 통합한 새로운 모델의 수립에 의의가 있다. 필자가 제시하고 있는 신제품의 전주기 경제성 분석모델은 신제품의 연구시작 단계에서부터 시제품 생산, 공장가동 생산판매 공익적 가치분석, 소비자 행태분석 단계까지를 통합하고 있다 본 모델에서는 기존의 경제학, 경여학, 산업공학에서 개별적으로 분리되어 사용되어 온 경제성 분석의 방법론을 수요자 중심으로 통합함으로써 분석의 객관성과 구체적 적용성을 높였으며 또한 각 분석단계마다 연구사례를 제시하여 독자의 이해와 활용성을 제고시켰다.

This paper examines the effects of ambient air pollution by ozone and particulate matter on traveling by mode of transport. We estimate the SUR model of travel time by different modes of transportation using individual level data of travel diaries. We find that, as air pollution levels rises, traveling by privately-owned vehicles increases but traveling by bus decreases. Our results also show that, when an air quality alert is issued, bus traveling increases in an effort to reduce pollution levels, but traveling by own car does not change and traveling by train declines. This suggests that alert programs may not be highly effective in reducing air pollution emissions from vehicles because voluntary switching to public transportation induced by air quality alerts is outweighed by individual effort of avoiding exposure to pollution.
