Objectives : An abrupt economic decline may widen the socioeconomic differences in health between the advantaged and disadvantaged in a society. The aim of this study was to examine whether the South Korean economic crisis of 1997-98 affected the socioeconomic inequality from all-causes and from cause-specific mortality between 1995 and 2001. Methods : Population denominators were obtained from the registration population data, with the number of death (numerators) calculated from raw death certificate data. The indicator used to assess the geographic socioeconomic position was the per capita regional tax revenue. Administrative districts (Si-Gun-Gu) were ranked according to this socioeconomic measure, and divided into equal population size quintiles on the basis of this ranking. The sex- and 5-year age-specific numbers of the population and deaths were used to compute the sex- and age-adjusted mortality rates (via direct standardization method), standardized mortality ratios (via indirect standardization methods) and relative indices of inequality (RII) (via Poisson regression). Results : Geographic inequalities from all-causes of mortality, as measured by RII, did not increase as a result of the economic crisis (from 1998-2001). This was true for both sexes and all age groups. However, the cause-specific analyses showed that socioeconomic inequalities in mortalities from external causes were affected by South Korean economic crisis. For males, the RIIs for mortalities from transport accidents and intentional self-harm increased between 1995 and 2001. For females, the RII for mortality from intentional self-harm increased during the same period. Conclusions : The South Korean economic crisis widened the geographic inequality in mortalities from major external causes. This increased inequality requires social discourse and counter policies with respect to the rising health inequalities in the South Korean society.

The purpose of this research was to examine the level and trends in household clothing expenditure in Korea. Raw data sets produced by the National Statistical Office from the Family Income and Expenditure Survey from 1991 to 2004 were used to support time-series and cross-sectional analyses. The clothing expenditures decreased severely and quickly during the economic crisis of late 1997 through 1998, then increased slowly after the economic crisis until 2003, only to slightly decrease again in 2004. The ratio of clothing expenditure to total household expenditure decreased from 8.03% in 1991 to 5.11% in 2004. This decrease in relative clothing expenditure was greater in the lower income group than in the middle and high income groups. Clothing expenditure patterns were unique and differed from other household expenditures. Although the economic crisis in the late 1990s affected Korean consumers' clothing expenditure, clothing expenditure patterns showed a more fundamental and structural change from 1991 to 2004, with the overall decrease in such expenditure resulting from the concurrent increase in educational and information-communication related expenditures. Clothing expenditure was shown to be luxurious through cross-sectional analysis, but necessary through time-series analysis.

Since the economic crisis sweeps across the world in 2008, the foreign direct investment of various countries has been greatly impacted. Therefore, this paper regards China as an example to analyze China's outward foreign direct investment patterns in terms of Asian financial markets with a panel data over the period 2003-2017. We mainly focus on the money market oriented outward foreign direct investment and foreign exchange market oriented outward foreign direct investment. Using the individual fixed effect model to conduct empirical analyses, the empirical findings indicate that China will reduce its foreign direct investment amount to a country with large money supply and China will increase its foreign direct investment amount to a country with large foreign exchange reserves. Furthermore, when a country has signed Free Trade Agreement with China, China will increase more foreign direct investment amount to these countries than that of a country who has not signed Free Trade Agreement with China. Moreover, the empirical findings indicate that no matter what the money market oriented outward foreign direct investment or foreign market oriented outward foreign direct investment, China will reduce its foreign direct investment amount to these Asian countries due to the global economic crisis.

The purpose of the research is to analyze the behavioral intention to adopt social media in SMEs affected by the COVID-19 crisis, based on the TOE Model. This study uses the TOE framework as a theoretical basis. This research is important because COVID-19 has destroyed most of the SMEs, and SMEs are exposed to social media technology to market their products. The success of social media adoption has helped SMEs to be able to rise from adversity. Respondents in this study were 250 SMEs in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The data analysis technique used is structural equation modeling with AMOS. The results of this study indicate that SMEs affected by the COVID-19 crisis have a high awareness of social media and have a high intention to adopt social media as a way to market their products and connect with customers. The intention to adopt social media is significantly influenced by the technological context, organizational context, environmental context, and social media awareness. The findings of this study suggest that in times of crisis due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Government support is needed. The Government needs to open services for SMEs whose businesses are affected by the pandemic.

본 논문에서는 아시아 경제위기(1997-2000)와 글로벌 경제위기(2007-2010)의 양대 경제위기 이후 진행된 동남아시아 지역의 달러화 현상에 대해 후발국이면서 체제전환국 성격이 강한 캄보디아, 라오스, 베트남을 중심으로 분석하였다. 이를 위해 로하스-수아레즈(Rojas-Suarez 1992) 모형을 활용하여 양대 경제위기의 위 3개국의 달러화 현상에 대한 영향을 비교 분석하였다. 동 모델에 의하면 경제위기는 자국화폐에 대한 신뢰를 떨어뜨려 자국 화폐가치에 대한 예상평가절하율(예상환율상승률)이 크면 클수록 자국화폐 대비 달러화에 대한 수요는 증가될 것으로 예상된다. 분석 결과 아시아 경제위기의 경우 모델의 예상대로 자국 화폐의 예상평가절하 시 달러화의 수요를 나타내는 탄력성 계수가 통계적으로 유의하였다. 국가별로는 캄보디아, 라오스, 베트남의 순서로 탄력성이 크게 나타났으며 이는 각 국의 달러화 수준과 비례하는 결과이다. 이에 비해 글로벌 경제위기의 경우에는 캄보디아를 제외하면 탄력성 계수가 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 캄보디아의 경우에도 탄력성 계수가 아시아 경제위기의 경우에 비해 감소된 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 달러화 현상에 있어서 아시아 경제위기에 비해 글로벌 경제위기의 영향이 상대적으로 작다는 것을 의미한다. 이는 동남아시아에 대한 글로벌 경제위기의 부정적 영향이 상대적으로 작았다는 기존의 연구들의 주장과 일치한다.

Ukraine has a significant in quantity and unique in quality parameters, in particular, the level of education, a resource - the labor force, which, along with natural resources, can serve as the basis for economic growth and the achievement of sustainable development goals. The study is aimed at a thorough identification of the main factors influencing the formation and use of the labor force in Ukraine, including by comparing with the indicators of the EU countries, before the start of the active phase of military aggression by the Russian Federation. It was found that until February 24, 2022, there were negative trends in the change in the quantitative and qualitative indicators of the labor force due to the demographic crisis, the transformation of the national economy and shortcomings in state regulation of labor market development processes. The military actions not only exacerbated pre-existing problems, but also led to the emergence of new ones. A significant number of refugees and internally displaced persons, with the termination of the activities of half of the economic entities, provoked a sharp increase in real unemployment and a decrease in wages. The specific problem of the labor market of Ukraine - the "labor crisis", which has and will have a significant impact on the labor force, is carefully considered.

Purpose: This study examined the life experiences of the wives of men who were born with normal vision but gradually developed a visual impairment, with particular focus on their way of facing and coping with their life crisis. Method: A narrative approach was used to not only understand women's experiences within sociocultural contexts, but also reveal the subjective meaning of their personal life stories through their own voices. A purposive sample of three participants having husbands unexpectedly diagnosed with visual impairment during their marriage was recruited. The data were analyzed using the narrative analysis methods suggested by Clandinin and Connelly. Results: The wives took the crisis of their husbands' visual impairment as an economic crisis of the family. They faced a variety of difficulties, including extreme despair, role changes, and economic burdens. On the other hand, they tried to keep the family secure through a range of coping strategies that were motivated by compassion toward the husbands, maternal affection for the children, and a sense of responsibility for their families. Conclusion: This study revealed the need for financial support for temporarily disadvantaged families. In addition, various nursing and counseling programs for the family members will also be needed to help recover the family functions.

본 연구의 목적은 2008년 글로벌 금융위기 이후 미국의 힘에 대한 중국의 인식을 살펴보는 것이다. 중국은 글로벌 금융위기로 인해 미국의 경제적 패권의 지위는 약화되었지만, 미국의 패권은 단지 경제력만이 아닌 미국의 종합적인 국력기반 위에 구축되어 있기 때문에 전반적인 국제질서에서 미국이 차지하는 패권적 지위가 약화되지는 않을 것으로 전망하고 있다. 또한 미국의 패권적 지위가 지속될 것이기 때문에 소위 '일초다강'이라는 국제질서에 근본적인 변화가 발생하지는 않겠지만 미국 경제력의 퇴보로 중국은 미국과의 격차가 줄어들 수 있는 기회를 맞이할 것이라고 진단하고 있다. 단기적으로 볼 때, 중국은 경제적 측면에서 글로벌 금융체제 개혁의 이니셔티브를 확보하기 위한 정책을 펼칠 가능성이 높다. 안보적 측면에서 역내에 미국의 영향이 중국의 핵심 이익을 위배하지 않는 범위 내에서 중국은 미국과 보다 협력적인 정책을 취할 것이라고 예상된다.
