The objective of this study is to investigate the healthcare status of South Korea and other member countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) using OECD health statistics 2020. We employed the position value for relative comparison index to measure the healthcare status in five following components: demand, supply, accessibility, quality, and cost. The Mann-Kendall test was used to analyze for increasing or decreasing trend of the position value for relative comparison values from 2000 to the recent year. Results showed that Korea was positioned above than the OECD median values in most of components, but lower than the median values in certain indices including healthcare employment, primary care, and mental health care. This study sheds some light on healthcare issues to be improved and the policy-makes can take into account for prior setting process.

The recent decades have seen a growing rate of international cooperation in science, technology, and innovation (STI) including in the field of green technologies. However, current approaches to national systems of innovation (NSI) have not kept up with this development. International aspects are rather treated as external conditions within which policymakers operate and respond but not influence. This paper tackles this problem by applying a refined NSI concept that includes an international dimension and complements past frameworks by focusing on those Korean government policies, actors, and activities relevant for the internationalization of STI. Austria and Korea have both formulated differing strategies to acquire international leading positions in the field of innovation and the development of green technologies. In the first step, the paper assesses Korea's international activities within the field of green technologies that transcend national boundaries and establish international connections. The government has still a strong influence on selecting technology areas for strategic funding but our findings show that international STI actors have difficulties in identifying the appropriate point of contact to initiate cooperation or apply for related funding. Second, an external perspective on Korea's international collaborations in the field of green technologies is offered. Austria has tentatively identified the East Asian country as a second-priority cooperation partner for its future STI internationalization activities. Interviews with Austrian stakeholders in the field of green technologies indicate a high interest in cooperation with Korea that is facilitated by a similar business culture based on personal networks. Moreover, researchers and policymakers referred to a shared need of small countries for intelligent decision-making processes regarding potential cooperation partners abroad. However, in order to enhance awareness, visibility and demand for Korean STI cooperation in European countries, more long-term funding programs featuring a more permanent point of contact should be introduced.

Background: This study aims to utilize Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) data to identify macroscopic determinants of health at national level and to utilize it in health policy development through comparison and analysis with Korea. Methods: The potential years of life lost (PYLL) were used as dependent variables and 19 indicators were selected as health determinants to be independent variables based on the results of previous studies. Data analysis was done using SAS ver. 9.4 package (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA) and model used in technical statistics concerning PYLL by countries, multi-linearity test between independent variables and OECD economic studies were modified and used. Results: From 1994 to 2012, the average PYLL for OECD countries was 4,262.9 years, the highest in Estonia and the lowest in Iceland. As a result of the analysis using the fixed effect model, the significant variables affecting PYLL were four variables: gross domestic product, nitric oxide, tobacco consumption, and number of doctors. The health determinants that had more influence on the PYLL of Korean people compared to other OECD countries were tobacco consumption, calorie consumption, fat intake and total health expenditure. Conclusion: In order to effectively reduce unnecessary deaths, we must continue to strengthen our smoking policy and nutrition policies such as calorie and fat intake. It is necessary to prevent the increase of total health expenditure due to the increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases and to strengthen the public health aspect.

1950-1960년 대 인도와 중국은 미국, 서방국가, 그리고 구소련에게서 받은 로켓 기술을 바탕으로 발사체 개발을 수월하게 이룰 수 있었다. MTCR이 출범한 1987년 이후, 1990년 대 초를 제외하고는 양국이 MTCR 체제 밖에 있었으며, 미국과의 주요 우주분야 협력 이력은 거의 없었다. 그러나 21세기 들어서며 인도는 미국과 우주협력 관계로 진입하고 미국의 비 상용 위성을 인도발사체를 이용한 발사가 가능하게 되었다. 반면 미국은 중국과의 우주발사체 협력은 물론 우주협력에 회의적이다. 본 논문에서는 인도와 중국 발사체에 적용된 미국의 미사일 비확산정책을 살펴보고 적용된 정책의 유사점과 상이점을 분석하여 우리나라 우주개발에 대한 시사점을 제시하고자 하였다.

The general purpose of this paper is to identify opportunities for and to measure existing collaboration on research and development between institutions from the countries of Asia and Latin America in FEALAC's framework, in the fields of biotechnology and nanotechnology and their convergence. The methodological approach includes scientific and technological surveillance and research seeking to identify both the R&D and innovation capacities of the countries as well as the degree of international cooperation between countries of the two regions; case studies and a study of the governance framework of international collaboration in R&D about issues considered global challenges. The study has three main findings. First, nanotechnology, biotechnology and their convergence contribute to solving the problem of contamination by heavy metals affecting most of the countries that are part of FEALAC and to address problems arising from the accelerated rate of energy consumption, which also contributes to environmental damage. In this scenario, important business opportunities arise from the adaptation and development of bio-refinery technologies. Second, the scientific relationship between FEALAC countries, mainly between Asian and Latin American countries, is weak as can be seen in research for articles and patents. But there is plenty of room and potential for improvement. Third, current and upcoming joint R&D programs and projects should be linked both to existing governance structures and to new ones that serve as experiments of STI public policy regarding innovative management of intellectual property and capacity building. Practical implications are included in lessons learned and a set of recommendations involving a couple of proposals. One proposal calls for research and innovation in promising fields for international cooperation. Another proposal creates mechanisms in the governance framework for sharing knowledge, capacity building, and funding.

In recent years, the relationships and inter-dependencies between the countries in East Asia have deepened, and the vision for regional cohesion such as the East Asian Community have been gradually elaborated. A Grand Design for Northeast Asia is one of these comprehensive visions that aim to improve and develop international infrastructure through cooperation in the field of transportation, energy, environment, and information technology. This study paid attention to the possibility for a system for regional cohesion and cooperation in spatial development in East Asia, and analyzed the roles of the ESDP according to the requirements of the East Asian situation. As a result, it was understood that while the development of infrastructure is a main stream in the case of the regional cohesion in East Asia, the cooperative visions for the conservation of natural and cultural heritage, which are being positioned as an important policy in the EU, have not been seen. It is a very important subject to promote the policy cohesion/cooperation on the conservation and management of natural/cultural heritage and the development of tourism infrastructure for the sustainable development of East Asia, considering the trends in the growth of the interchange population and tourism market in East Asia. It was discussed that the role of research networks like the International Landscape Architectural Symposium of Korea, China and Japan is becoming important in supporting this policy cohesion and in grasping the present conditions and trends of the spatial development of these counties.

The main purpose of this study is to explore a way of fisheries cooperation through the ODA demand survey in the fisheries sector on 8 ASEAN countries. In detail, we identified the status of detailed cooperation in the fisheries sector with ASEAN countries and identified new cooperation network construction projects in accordance with the changes in external cooperation environment, and presented strategies and policy directions for fisheries cooperation projects. For this purpose, we surveyed the questionnaires of 8 ASEAN countries using structured questionnaires for local fisheries experts. As a result of the questionnaire analysis, eight ASEAN countries were classified into three groups according to DAC beneficiary standards and suggested implications. Based on the results of the survey, the basic direction of the fisheries cooperation projects in each of the eight countries surveyed was set up, and the preferred projects for fisheries cooperation projects were proposed by dividing them into groups. In addition, the research results were used to systematically establish national promotion plans.

혁신클러스터 이론에서는 산학연 협력 등을 통해 암묵적 지식과 노하우 접근이 수월할수록 클러스터의 성장이 촉진된다. 산학협력이란 산학연간의 공동연구를 지원하는 혁신네트워크 정책이라고 할 수 있다. 이러한 측면에서 최근의 정부 정책의 흐름은 산학연협력 생태계가 자발적으로 조성되도록 대학 및 연구기관의 지원 전담조직을 활성화 하고 있는 추세이다. 중소기업청은 2013년도에 우수한 연구기반을 갖춘 대학 또는 연구기관 내에 중소기업의 연구 기능을 집적화하여 산학연협력 연구개발 및 사업화를 지원하기 위한 '연구마을 지원사업'을 첫 시행하였다. 이러한 권역별 특성을 반영한 사업의 생태계가 잘 조성되기 위해서는 지역의 특화산업을 반영한 산학협력기술개발이 추진되어야 할 것이다. 특화발굴 전략이 잘 반영된 연구마을의 경우, 유사 기술분야 기업들의 집적화로 자연스럽게 클러스터가 조성되어 연구의 시너지를 창출 할 수 있을 것이다. 이에 본 사업에 참여한 충청권의 연구마을 특화분야 발굴사례를 통해 지역 특화사업 연계 전략을 조사 정리하여 향후 연구마을뿐만 아니라 지역특화 전략에 기반한 산학협력을 추구하는 기관에 발굴전략을 제시하고 정부의 클러스터정책이 활성화 될 수 있도록 정책적 제언을 제시해보고자 한다.
