외환위기 이후 청년실업의 증가가 사회적 문제로 부각되었으나, 청년층의 노동시장 경험에 관한 연구는 제한적으로 이루어져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 노동경력을 단순한 일자리 이동과 달리 노동지위의 연속적 배열과 순서적이고 위계적인 변화과정으로 개념화하였으며, 배열분석을 활용하여 외환위기 전후 청년층의 노동경력을 노동지위의 다양한 측면에서 비교하였다. 분석 결과, 외환위기 이후 첫 일자리로의 이행기간이 장기화되고 고용형태와 사업장 규모 면에서 첫 일자리의 질적 저하가 발생하였음이 확인되었다. 또한 외환위기 이후 청년 코호트는 미취업형과 실업형, 비대기업형, 비정규직형 및 이동형 특성을 갖는 경력유형에 속할 상대적 위험률이 높았다. 이러한 결과는 전반적으로 외환위기 이후 청년층의 고용불안정성이 더 커졌으며, 내부노동시장형에 비해 외부노동시장형 경력유형이 상대적으로 증가한 것을 의미한다.

In this paper, I review evidence on changing global specialization in labor-intensive exporting. Production of apparel, footwear, furniture, and related products are how many low-income countries first enter export manufacturing. Just as China's rise as a powerhouse in these goods supplanted a role previously occupied by the East Asian Tigers, the world may again be on the cusp of significant change in where labor-intensive goods are produced. China's prowess in these sectors peaked in the early 2010s; its share in their global exports, while still substantial, is now in decline. Mechanisms through which the global economy may adjust to China's graduation into more technologically sophisticated activities include expanded labor-intensive export production in other emerging economies and labor-saving technological change in products currently heavily reliant on less-educated labor. Available evidence suggests that the first mechanism is operating slowly and the second hardly at all. As a third mechanism, China may in part replace itself by moving labor-heavy factories out of densely populated and expensive coastal cities and into the country's interior. Such a transition, though still in its infancy, would mirror the decentralization of manufacturing production in the U.S. and Europe, which occurred after World War II.

이 연구의 목적은 기혼 여성의 결혼 후 첫 취업 중단 발생 경향을 자녀 출산 및 가족친화제도에 따른 영향에 주목하여 분석함으로써, 출산과 가족친화제도가 일 가족 양립에 미치는 영향을 파악하는 것이다. 이를 알아보기 위하여 한국노동패널에서 최근 5년 이내(2002~2006) 결혼한 20~30대 취업 여성 194명을 추출하였으며, 가족친화제도 문항이 포함되기 시작한 제4차(2001)부터 제 9차(2006)까지의 데이터를 활용하여 생존분석하였다. 분석 결과 기혼 취업 여성이 첫 경력 단절을 경험하기까지 걸리는 시간은 평균 29.60개월로, 결혼 후 2년 반 이내에 절반 가까이 직장 생활을 그만두었다. 취업 여성의 결혼 후 취업 중단 요인에는 자녀 출산이 가장 유의한 변수로 나타났으며, 근로소득이 증가할수록, 근로시간이 감소할수록, 직장 내 가족친화제도를 더 많이 이용할수록 취업상태를 지속하는 경향을 보였다. 기혼 취업 여성의 취업 중단은 특히 첫 자녀 출산을 2~3개월 앞둔 시기에 주로 나타났는데, 출산휴가 및 육아휴직과 같은 가족친화제도를 이용할 수 있는 경우 이러한 취업 중단이 발생할 가능성은 유의하게 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구의 일차적 목적은 지난 40년간 일어난 초고속 경제성장의 경험에 유념하면서 한국 여성노동력의 성격변화와 그 대응양식으로서 노동(관련)정책을 해당 정권별(박정희-전두환-노태우-김영삼-김대중)로 구분하여 살펴보는 것에 있다. 60년대 초반 산업화 도입기부터 역대 정권은 각기 다른 모습으로 여성노동력을 저임금-단순-미숙련-산업인력으로 주변화시켜 왔음을 관련자료를 통해서 확인할 수 있었다. 구체적으로 60년대 산업화 초기에는 노동집약적 산업에 저임금 산업인력으로 70년대 중화학공업 육성기예는 저임금을 특징으로 하는 전통적 여성직종에 집중배치되었다. 80년대 들어서는 의류 전자 신발 등의 업종으로부터 집단해고 또는 대량감원의 대상으로 전락하였다. IMF 경제위기 전후 90년대는 비정규진 노동의 확산과 고용불안정 혹은 실업이 한국 여성노동의 현실에 충격을 주어 여전히 그 영향력에서 벗어나지 못한 상태에 놓여있다고 하겠다. 한편 정부 측의 다양한 대응양식으로서 노동(관련) 정책이 제안되고 있으나, 불합리한 노동 현실의 근본적인 대안으로 평가되기에는 역부족이라고 말할 수 있을 것이다.

This paper is to study globalization motives and strategies of Japanese and Korean industries by analyzing the causes and patterns of foreign direct investment (FDI) of the firms of the two countries during the 1980s and 1990s. First we develop a FDI function from the profit maximizing model of firms. Then we use regression analysis to determine internally driving-out factors and externally-inducing factors. Japanese FDI strategy has gone through three different stages; from natural resource-seeking investment in the 1950s and 1960s to market-expansion investment in the 1970s and 1980s and to a combination of cost-reducing (low-cost labor-seeking) investment and market-penetrating investment in the 1990s. On the other hand, Korean FDI behavior has gone through four different stages; from the learning stage with small investments in the 1970s, to natural resource-seeking investment in the early and mid 1980s, to the growth stage in the late 1980s and the early 1990s, to the maturity stage of the mid and late 1990s. The last two stages were characterized by a combination of cost-reducing investment and market-seeking investment. As a late comer, Korea began its FDI two decades later than Japan, but caught up the patterns of Japanese FDI by the mid 1990s and is in a competing position with Japan. Our findings show that both Japanese FDI and Korean FDI in Asia and other developing countries tendto be in labor-intensive sectors where their firms are losing their comparative advantages at home. The main motive for FDI into these regions is low-cost resource seeking. On the other hand, both Japanese FDI and Korean FDI in the U.S. and Europe tend to be knowledge-intensive sectors where Japanese and Korean firms attempt to internalize transaction and information costs by globalizing its production. The main motive for FDI into these regions is market-seeking. Firms in both countries have increased their investments in Mexico and Western and Eastern Europe in order to penetrate large economic blocs such as the EU and NAFTA area. Korean firms are more aggressive in expanding into new and untested markets than are their counterpart in Japan. Evidence of this can be seen in the scarcity of Japanese FDI and abundance of Korean FDI in Eastern Europe and China.

This study is a design study related to the application of 3D printer technology for garment printing. Knitting, which used to be a home industry in the early days, originally comes from hand-knitting. This evolved with various personal devices as a small job for the self-sufficiency of early European housewives. In addition, since the Industrial Revolution, mechanical production entered the mass production mass supply system, and various apparel products were provided to consumers in accordance with mass standardized dimensions. This is similar to the development process in Korea. In addition, it has formed a considerable market with the situation that it can produce and supply apparel products at low labor costs of first-generation Namdaemun and Dongdaemun merchants. As the production shifted to the Southeast Asian region due to the increase in labor costs in the domestically developed social situation, the production of garment products in Korea is now almost 5%. As a result, apparel-related production facilities and related companies are constantly moving to other countries to move production facilities sensitively due to rising labor costs. Recently, smart factory automation has been planned to explore new possibilities. In addition, in recent years, with the evolved appearance of consumers, the appropriate supply of the right amount of production has appeared, and the 3D printer applied to personal garment output has attracted considerable interest in the customized market. Therefore, in order to become a new hope and a small addition to various clothing workers, this study conducted related research on the following 3D printers for clothing output and attempted to proceed with a new design.

실업근로자의 노동시장으로의 재진입 또는 재취업과 관련한 실업근로자의 의중임금에 대한 연구는 대단히 중요한 의미를 가진다고 볼 수 있다. 왜냐하면 한 가계 내 핵심 노동력인 남자의 의중임금 결정메커니즘과 가계보조적 성향이 강한 여자의 의중임금 결정메터니즘 간에눈 차이가 있을 것이기 때문이다. 이러한 맥락에서 약 1,200명의 실업자를 대상으로 조사한 미시적 자료를 이용하여 성별 의중임금함수(reservation wage function)를 추정함으로써 성별 의중임금함수의 상이성에 따라 남녀간 의중임금 결정메커니즘이 서로 다름을 밝히고자 한다. 그 결과 성별 의중임금 결정요인의 중요 설명변수들을 살펴보면 남자의 경우에는 전 직장의 임금소득, 연령, 학력, 실업기간 등이 중요 설명변수였으나 여자의 경우에는 전 직장의 임금소득, 학력, 연령, 자격증 유무 등이 중요 설명변수가 되는 것으로 나타났다. 여자보다 남자의 경우 저학력에 비하여 고학력일수록 의중임금이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 여자보다 남자의 경우 실업기간이 길어질수록 의중임금이 더 큰 폭으로 하락하고 타가구원의 소득이 있는 경우에 의중임금이 더 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 본 연구는 조사 지역의 범위와 관련한 자료의 한계를 인정한다 하더라도 우리나라 의중임금과 관련한 연구에 많은 시사점을 줄 것으로 기대한다.

Today Korean clothing companies are experiencing difficulties in the global market due to unfavorable business conditions including poor production environments, labor shortage, rising costs, the further opening of the domestic distribution market, and increased competition among them. As a result, this has caused many of Korean clothing companies to transfer their production bases abroad in search of relatively inexpensive labor force, instead of using domestic plants. This study attempted to examine how Korean clothing companies perceive production environments and labor standards with regard to their offshore outsourcing. In such an attempt, in-depth interviews were conducted with 24 brand-name clothing firms. Those interviewed firms were the brands for the domestic or foreign market that were found to produce more than 200,000 pieces of clothing per year, and also the group of interviewees included some promotion service providers. The key findings from this study are as follows: First, a large number of the interviewed clothing companies were found to manage their foreign contract manufacturers by "visiting their factories regularly on a seasonal basis" or "stationing their personnel in factory for management purposes." Second, in relation to quality control in their foreign manufacturers, the most frequent response was to "have personnel stationed in those manufacturers." A smaller number of the clothing companies answered that they had "engaged their production management teams in quality control from time to time," or "used their inspectors to inspect products." Third, when asked about labor standards in foreign contract manufacturers, the largest number of the clothing companies responded, "we apply our own standards." The results of this study suggest that most of domestic clothing companies still use offshore sourcing just as a means of reducing their initial labor costs. However, in the continuously changing environment of the global clothing industry, clothing businesses are required to escape from the early phases of their manufacturing environments and set up more globalized standards.

최근 우리나라 중소기업들은 심각한 수준의 인력부족현상을 경험하고 있다. 많은 선행연구는 이것이 중소기업의 열악한 근무 환경과 낮은 임금 그리고 이에 따른 졸업생의 중소기업 기피에 주로 기인한다고 보았다. 반면 중소기업 취업자가 노동시장에서 차별을 경험하기 때문이라는 노동시장분절 시각에서 접근 되기도 하다. 특히 이 같은 차별이 하향취업과 비전공 취업으로 연계될 수 있고, 결과적으로 빈번한 이직이나 안정적이지 못한 일자리로 이어짐으로써 장기적으로는 효과적인 경력축적을 저해하게 할 수 있다는 지적도 있다. 하지만 그 동안 대부분의 연구는 주로 대학 졸업생의 미취업 탈출에 초점을 둔 반면, 이들의 초기 직업력에 대한 연구는 대단히 적었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 대학 졸업생의 직업력에 대한 추적조사 결과를 활용하여 중소기업 취업자의 이직 경로를 분석하고, 노동시장 진입 과정에 따른 노동시장 성과의 차이를 분석하고자 한다. 분석 결과, 대학 졸업생의 중소기업 경력은 더 많은 그리고 더 장기간의 교량적 일자리를 경험하게 되고, 상대적으로 낮은 임금과 고용불안정을 수반하며, 이 같은 직장이동이 긍정적인 노동시장성과를 동반하지 못하는 등 노동시장에서 인적 자본이나 교육의 질로써 설명되지 못하는 '중소기업효과'가 존재하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to understand the labor division between men's housework and market work and to research the change of men's contribution to housework. And it was also examined what kinds of valuables work on a change in men's market work and housework. The information about men's change in the labor division was collected from the biggest 5 news papers in Korea for last five years for this study. And either men's new participation trend to household work did. Words searched for this study were men, labor, family, home, housewife, work, household work, father etc. Korean men have experienced a overloaded breadwinner role and have worked most in the world since 1960s. But Korean men's working time was continuously decreased a little every year. As Korean Companies had fired many worker during IMP economic crisis period, Korean men had to work more than before because of decreased fellows and they should have concentrated on their work at the sacrifice of private life and family-sharing time. On the other hand, some men were started to participate to do housework as a results of long-unemployment and early retirement after this periods. 5 day working system be in forced gradually since 2003 especially make men come back home and interest on housework. So Korean men's housework participation is gradually increasing by the practical application of sex-equitable politics such as 5 day working system and men's suspension regime for baby care. father's increased participation to children education and care, men's new family-oriented life style, dual-sexuality education system, and socially changed perception to husband housemaker. These interrelated trends demands us to shape a new labor division pattern in the family that make change the breadwinner/homemaker conception by the gender role. Now, all of family, men, women, and children have to join housework. It would help women, men, and all families make more human and equitable relationship.
