  • In this paper, we examined the regional economic integration, the trade negotiation strategy and bargaining power of the European Union through the logical structure of the three - dimensional game theory. In the three - dimensional game theory, the negotiator emphasized that the negotiation strategy of the triple side existed while simultaneously operating the game standing on the boundary of each side game, constrained from each direction or occasionally using the constraint as an opportunity. The study of three-dimensional game theory is aimed at organizing the process of coordinating opinions and meditating interests at the international level, regional level and member level by the regional union as a subject of negotiation. This study would compare and analyze the recently concluded EU-Japan EPA (Economic Partnership Agreement) negotiation process with the case of the EU FTA, and summarize the logic of the three-dimensional game theory applicable to the FTA of the regional economic partnership. Furthermore, the study would illustrate the strategies of the regional economic cooperatives to respond to negotiations. The area of trade policy at the EU level has already been completed by the exclusive power of the Union on areas where it is difficult to politicize with technical features. Moreover, the fact that the policy process at the Union level has not been revealed as a political issue, and that the public opinion process is a double-step approach. In conclusion, the EU's trade policy process constitutes a complicated and sophisticated process with the allocation of authority by various central organizations. The mechanism of negotiation is paradoxically simplified because of the common policy decision process and the structural characteristics of the trade zone, and the bargaining power at the community level is enhanced. As a result, the European Commission would function as a very strong negotiator in bilateral trade negotiations at the international level.

  • The rapid expansion of regionalism has resulted in the creation of blocs of the global economy, so that those countries not belonging to one or more blocs can be discrimiated. Though signed on the bill of FTA with Chile, Korea is actually alienated from major stream of the blocs. Therefore, Korea government makes efforts to contract more FTAs with countries such as Singapore and Japan, others. FTA is believed to be an important method to secure export and national competitiveness. Therefore, we need to exactly understand critical issues and the long-run effort of FTA. This paper tries to find out important issues and potential strategies relating to electronic commerce in Korea's FTA with other countries. In these means, relationship between FTA and e-Trade are closely related to global business chance. In these means, we should use FTA potentials for encouraging global commerce by e-Trade and develop e-FTA in the foreseeable future.

  • The present study made an empirical analysis for investigating the competitiveness of technology trades in Korea. In particular, the study deduced the correlation between technology export and technology import using the variables of Gross Domestic Expenditure on R&D and Per capita industry value added Productivity and employed fixed effect model in panel linear regression model. It is found that the R&D expenditure of OECD countries made a significant effect on the technology import and the value-added labor productivity made a significant result on both technology export and import. Therefore, it showed that the technology trade in Korea made a sensitive response to labor productivity in OECD countries. By panel analysis, machine, construction, ICT, and service industry affect most on technology export in Korea for recent 5 years. For technology import, electric-electron, chemical, service, and construction industry have significant effects. This study contributed to understanding of industrial characteristics affecting technology trades in Korea and empirical analysis to show correlation between the factors affecting technology trade.

  • 한중일 3국간 경제협력이 강화되고 있다. 우리나라는 그 동안 칠레, 아세안, EFTA, 미국과 EU 등 원거리에 있는 국가와 자유무역협정(FTA) 체결을 위한 협상을 벌여 왔다. 이 과정에도 아직도 FTA에 대한 찬반 논란이 끊이지 않고 있지만 04년 이후 중단되었던 한일 FTA협상을 재개할 것인가에 대한 검토가 이루어지고 있다. 또한 한중 FTA의 타당성과 추진 시기에 대해서도 검토되어야 한다는 견해가 대두되고 있다. 한중일간의 FTA 협상이 본격화될 경우 우리나라는 본격적인 시장개방과 함께 동북아협력의 새로운 시대를 맞이할 전망이다. 본 고에서는 최근 한중일 자동차산업의 동향 및 협력현황을 살펴 보고 동북아 3국간 새로운 협력시대의 전개와 그 시사점을 도출해 보기로 한다.

  • 한나라당 김성수 국회의원과 협회가 공동 주최하고, 축산신문사가 주관한 긴급 정책 토론회가 12월 15일 국회 귀빈식당에서 열렸다. 한 EU FTA 발효에 이어 한 미 FTA도 국회비준을 통해 발효를 앞두고 있는 시점에 낙농강국인 호주, 뉴질랜드와도 FTA가 진행 중에 있다. 축산업, 그 중 단연 낙농분야 피해가 가장 클 것으로 예상되지만 정부의 낙농산업 유지를 위한 피해보전 대책은 전무한 실정이다. 이날 토론에서는 정부의 주제발표와 각계 지정토론이 이어졌으며 FTA 시대 낙농산업 유지를 위한 여러 의견들이 제시되었다.
