  • This study adopts organismic integration theory (OIT) to classify and contrast the predominant roles of five motivations (i.e., economic incentives, self-presentation, information acquisition, altruism, and enjoyment) in fostering three levels of behavioral engagement on brand-related social media content. This study further examines the moderating effect of personality (thinkers vs. feelers) on these relationships. The results of PLS-SEM reveal the greater impact of autonomous motivations on content consumption (enjoyment and information acquisition) and content contribution and creation (altruism and information acquisition), compared with controlled motivations (self-presentation and economic incentives). This study also finds that thinkers mostly engage on brand-related content for information acquisition and economic incentives, whereas feelers are mostly driven by enjoyment for content consumption and by altruism for content contribution and creation. This study addresses the inconsistency in prior research findings and provides practical implications to social media marketers.

  • S&T policy has been traditionally regarded as a sector policy; however, it is now evolving into an infrastructure innovation policy that forms the foundation of diverse types of policies. Simultaneously, environmental and energy policies formerly considered as sector policies are now being expanded and integrated into a higher level policy for sustainable development. With these changes underway, the importance of policy integration has increased. Efforts are being made to minimize contradictions between environmental, social, and innovation policies that emphasize proactive linkage among policies or place the highest priority on environmental policy following the theory of Environmental Policy Integration (EPI). Confronted with these policy changes, the Lee Myung-bak government announced "Low-Carbon Green Growth" in 2008 as national agenda for development that focus attention on environmental and energy issues. Economic policy and environmental policy have been traditionally seen in a conflicting relationship with different paths of policy development. However, the administration of President Lee is now emphasizing the synergy effects between the environment and economic growth with the concept of green growth. The green growth policy of the Korean government has great significance as it has built a momentum for incorporating social goals such as environmental values or sustainable development into economic growth-oriented policies; however, there remain many challenges due to the legacy of the development period that has dominated Korean society. The Korean government says it reflects "EPI" or "environmentalism" in policy goals; however, in reality it prioritizes development over the environment.

  • Purpose - This paper aims at analyzing the functions and effectiveness of the cooperation agenda in Free Trade Agreements (FTAs), focusing on the cases of Asian countries. This paper estimates the contribution of this agenda to the sustainable development in Asia by providing the 'side payment' of the economic integration that encourages foreign investment and change in global value chains (GVC). Design/methodology - This study analyzes the functions of the cooperation chapter in FTAs by applying the cooperative game theory and reviewing the structures of the related FTAs. Also, as an empirical study, the existing FTA provisions and related development assistant programs in Asia are reviewed in this paper, especially focusing on the FTAs signed by Korea. Findings - Our main findings can be summarized as follows: The drawback of the economic integration, which would be the imbalanced economic benefit, can be redressed by the cooperation chapter in FTAs functioning as a 'side payment'. Indeed, as the examples of Korean FTAs show, more foreign investment and the GVC expansion in Asian countries have been encouraged thanks to the implementation of the cooperation chapters. Originality/value - This paper attempts to find how a legally binding agreement would influence the cooperation agenda in Asia which has never been analyzed despite the increasing number of so-called 'cooperation' chapters in the FTAs.

  • This paper conducts a thorough economic evaluation of integrating nanoparticles into concrete structures within the construction industry, aiming to elevate the material properties of concrete. Employing the Halpin-Tsai micromechanics theory for deriving the effective material properties of the nanocomposite concrete structure, the research investigates the nuanced impact of nanoparticles on various mechanical properties, including the modulus of elasticity, compressive strength, and their indirect effects on the percentage of reinforcement. Implementing the Euler theory to formulate the governing equation based on Hamilton's principle, the study delves into the pricing dynamics of nanoparticles and their influence on the overall cost structure of concrete structures. Notably, the findings reveal that a measured increase in the volume percentage of nanoparticles, up to 1%, results in a remarkable 78% improvement in elastic modulus and a substantial 142% reduction in armature percentage. Remarkably, from an economic perspective, the incremental cost associated with the integration of nanoparticles is relatively modest (around $1 per ton of concrete), considering the substantial enhancements in mechanical properties achieved.

  • Since World War II nations have formed alliances for reasons of security and trade. Countries have seen international integration as an appropriate approach to resolving domestic and international political issues, improving their welfare by both transforming their infrastructures and increasing their foreign trade. While the majority of these relationships are straightforward d Turkey's relationship with the European Union is more complex due to differences in religion and, at times, political ideology from other Union members. As a candidate country Turkey has made advances towards the full membership of the European Union with the customs union being the most significant. The impact of customs union membership is discussed and the effects of the customs union on Turkey's trade and economy are examined from a perspective of different economic theories.

  • 한국 정부는 액화 천연가스를 대체하는 에너지원으로서 러시아의 파이프라인 천연가스 도입을 1990년대 이후부터 지속적으로 모색해오고 있다. 이러한 동북아 에너지 협력에 대한 논의가 현실 정치뿐만 아니라 학술적인 차원에서도 다양하게 진행되고 있지만, 기존의 선행연구들은 협력의 당위성만을 제시하고 있을 뿐이지 이론적 분석틀이 미약하다는 한계를 지니고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 경제통합론이라는 이론적 자원을 바탕으로 에너지협력의 동기 조건 단계를 분석하고자 한다. 연구 결과 동북아 천연가스 협력과 관련해서는 경제적 동기만이 유일하기는 하지만, 실질적인 기대이익뿐만 아니라 경제구조의 보완성과 정책목표의 수렴성이라는 조건들이 갖추어진 것으로 파악되었다. 결론적으로 동북아에서 높은 수준의 에너지 협력은 어렵겠지만 특혜무역협정 수준의 초보적인 천연가스 협력이 가능하다는 전망이 제시될 수 있었다.

  • 농촌 개발 전략의 일환으로 글로벌 가치사슬로의 통합이 주목받고 있지만, 특정 통합이 성공 혹은 실패하는 원인과 메커니즘에 대해서는 알려진 바가 적다. 본 연구는 딸기 수출시장에서 진주지역의 농업인들이 생산자 주도적 가치사슬 거버넌스를 구축한 메커니즘과 그와 동반된 사회환경적 변화를 탐구했다. 이를 위해 딸기 가치 사슬의 특성을 분석했으며, 지대 이론에 의거해 진주와 논산을 비교 분석했다. 5개월에 걸친 현장조사와 이해관계자 심층 인터뷰 결과, 진주에서는 수출가능한 품종과 해당 품종에 적합한 지역 기후 조건으로 인해 자연적 진입장벽을 구축함으로써 수출시장에서의 경제적 지대를 창출했음을 확인했다. 또한 생산자 조직화를 통해 독점 지대와 국가 지원에서 비롯된 추가 수익을 유지했다. 수평적으로 연결된 농민들은 무역업체에 대한 협상력을 높이고 회원 가입을 통제하여 국가 지원에 대한 접근을 관리함으로써 생산자 주도적 가치사슬 내 지위를 공고화했다.

  • This paper examines the performances of economics for Southeast Asian studies and finds the relationship between economics and Southeast Asian studies in Korea. Based on this we try to find the direction and the way how economics contributes to Southeast Asian studies. First of all, we look into several journals on area studies, such as Review of Southeast Asia, and find out that economics researches on Southeast Asia are much fewer than expected. This shows that Korean economists are not much interested in the issue of Southeast Asia and reflects the academic differences as discipline in economics and interdisciplinary Southeast Asian studies. However, we could find the common area that economics and Southeast Asian studies can share. Also, we suggest some points that economics contributes to development of Southeast Asian studies toward a independent academic discipline. It includes the theory and methodology of international, and development economics. The rapid development of information and communication technology and the economic integration by globalization needs new and modified economic theory and methodology for research on Southeast Asia. Adopting the objective and statistical methodology of economics could level up Southeast Asian studies as social science. Also, Southeast Asian studies need to recruit more actively economics research topics and methodology. Economics could attribute to the development of Korean Southeast Asian studies.

  • 본 논문에서는 삼차원게임이론의 논리 구조를 통해 지역경제통합체, 즉 유럽연합의 통상 협상 전략 및 협상력을 분석하였다. 삼차원게임이론에서는 협상자가 각 면 게임의 경계에 서서 게임을 동시에 운용해 나아가면서, 각 방향으로부터 제약을 받거나 때때로 제약을 기회로 활용하는 등 삼중 측면의 협상 전략이 상존함을 강조하였다. 삼차원게임이론에 대한 연구는 지역연합이 협상의 주체로서 등장하여 국제레벨, 지역레벨 및 회원국레벨의 의견을 조율하고, 이해관계를 조정하는 과정을 체계화하기 위한 목적을 가진다. 본 연구에서는 최근 체결된 EU-일본 EPA(Economic Partnership Agreement) 협상과정을 사례로 한-EU FTA 사례와 비교 분석하여, 지역경제협력체의 FTA 추진 시 적용할 수 있는 삼차원게임이론의 논리를 정리하였다. 또한 본고에서는 지역경제통합체의 통상협상 대상국은 협상에 임할 때 어떠한 전략에 대응할 수 있을 것인가에 관해 분석하였다. EU 지역차원의 통상정책 영역은 기술적 특성으로 정치화되기 어려운 영역에 관한 연합의 배타적 권한화가 이미 완성되었으며, 연합 차원의 정책과정이 정치쟁점으로 드러나지 않아왔던 점 그리고 여론 전달 과정이 더블 스텝 접근 방식인 점 등이 복합되어 그 특성을 형성해 왔다. 결론적으로 EU의 통상영역 정책 과정은 다양한 중앙조직에 의한 권한 배분으로 복잡하고 정교한 과정을 구성한다. 이러한 공동정책 결정과정과 통상 영역의 구조적 특성으로 말미암아 오히려 협상의 메커니즘 역설적으로 단순화되었고, 공동체 차원의 협상력은 높아졌다. 결과적으로 유럽위원회는 국제레벨 단계의 양자간 통상협상에서 매우 강력한 협상 행위자로 기능하게 된다.
