Purpose - This article aims to explore the mechanism in which environmental regulations have positive effects on corporate competitiveness through technological innovation. This study also attempts to examine the relationship between environmental regulation and corporate competitiveness from a technological innovation perspective and explore a desirable relationship between those two. Research design, data, and methodology - Discourse analysis and SWOT analysis is used in terms of methodology, and this study is based on literature review theoretically. The methodology is employed in various ways to describe a variety of environmental issues. Result - The results support that technological innovation is able to play a role in coordinating relationship between environmental regulations and corporate competitiveness. The uncertainty and time lag problems innate to technological innovation function as disturbing factors for individual companies to actively increase R&D investment in response to environmental regulations. Environmental regulations may be considered to be working as a factor consolidating corporate competitiveness through technological innovation to respond to the environmental regulations including climate change issue. Conclusion - This study proposes that to achieve two goals of environmental protection and corporate competitiveness consolidation, policy support from various aspects is implied to be required. This implies that environmental regulations and technical innovation must be harmoniously balanced for future corporate success.

Recognizing the significance of inter-firm cooperation for firm's sustainable competitive advantage in today's business environment, this study investigates the effects of inter-firm cooperation and knowledge sharing on firm competitiveness based on 327 Korean small and medium sized enterprises. We also examines a mediating effects of knowledge sharing on the relationship between inter-firm cooperation and firm competitiveness and moderating effects of environmental factors on this relationship. The environmental factors are conceptualized by intensity of market competition and technological change. The main findings of the study are as follows: First, the paper found that inter-firm cooperation was positively associated with firm competitiveness while there was also a positive relationship between knowledge sharing and firm competitiveness. Second, it also shows that knowledge sharing partially mediated the relationship of inter-firm cooperation and firm competitiveness. Third, we also found that technological change had negative moderating effects on the relationship between inter-firm cooperation and firm competitiveness. This study suggests that understanding of inter-firm cooperation with consideration of environmental characteristics are required for better firm competitiveness.

본 연구의 목적은 우리나라 환경산업 해외시장 진출 전략 수립을 위하여 선진국과의 환경산업 기술경쟁력을 평가하고자 하였다. 환경산업 기술경쟁력을 평가하기 위하여 국내·외 환경산업기술 분류체계를 바탕으로 환경산업 분야별 중점 기술을 분류하고, 기술경쟁력 평가지표를 구축하였다. 평가지표 자료 구축을 수행한 후 델파이 분석 및 논문·특허 분석, 수출·입 분석을 수행하였으며, 지표값에 대한 표준화 분석을 수행하였다. 또한, AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) 기법을 통해 평가지표별 가중치를 산정하여 한국, 미국, 영국, 독일, 프랑스의 환경산업기술 경쟁력 평가 결과를 도출하였다. 평가 결과, 모든 환경산업 분야에서 미국이 상대적으로 기술경쟁력이 가장 높은 것으로 평가되었으며, 한국은 선진국에 비해 상대적으로 가장 낮은 경쟁력을 가지고 있는 것으로 평가되었다. 특히, 한국은 다매체 환경관리 및 지속가능 사회시스템 구축분야가 선진국에 비해 기술경쟁력 수준이 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 국내 환경산업기술이 글로벌 선진시장에 진출하기 위해서는 국내 강점인 사물인터넷, 클라우드, 빅데이터, 모바일, 인공지능 기반의 4차 환경산업 개발을 통해 경쟁력을 강화해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

본 논문은 세계화 기후변화시대에 지역 경쟁력에 영향을 미치는 요인을 추정하고, 요인들의 상대적 중요성을 분석하는 데 목적을 두었다. 2001~2010년 동안 16개 광역시 도의 균형 패널 데이터를 구축하여 패널분석을 수행하였다. 1인당 지역민총소득을 종속변수로 하고 경쟁력 기반요인, 경제적 생산요인, 기후변화 적응요인을 설명변수로 하는 패널모델을 구축하였다. 본 연구에서는 모델 1(전형적인 지역 경쟁력 모델)과 기후변화 적응요인을 추가시킨 모델 2를 비교하였다. 실증분석 결과 종속변수에 가장 영향력이 높은 요인으로는 지식기반산업 비율과 인적자본으로 나타났으며, 에너지 비효율성이 증가하면 지역 경쟁력이 감소하는 것으로 추정되었다. 또한 모델 1에 비해 모델 2에서는 지역의 개방성과 기술혁신자본의 영향력이 상대적으로 더 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과를 통해 향후 세계화 기후변화시대에 지역 경쟁력을 강화시키는데 필요한 정책적 시사점을 제공하였다.

경쟁력을 바탕으로 지속가능한 성장이 요구되는 동북아 항만경쟁 구조에서 경제적 사회적 환경적 측면을 아우르는 지속가능한 항만경쟁력 확보의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 하지만 경쟁력을 다루는 기존 연구들은 단기적인 관점에서 항만 자체의 경쟁능력을 구성하는 결정요인들에 초점을 맞추고 있으며, 항만의 지속가능성을 다루는 연구 역시 기후변화 또는 환경부화의 최소화와 같은 환경적 요인을 중점적으로 다루면서, 항만의 경쟁력과 지속가능성 간의 이론적 괴리가 발생하였다. 이 연구는 지속가능성을 구성하는 TBL(Triple bottom line)을 바탕으로 지속가능한 항만경쟁력을 재해석하였고, 다각적으로 관련 활동들을 분석/분류함으로써 지속가능한 항만경쟁력 확보 방안 및 시사점을 도출하였다. 연구결과는 항만경쟁력 연구의 이론적 진보뿐만 아니라, 상업적 항만의 지속가능한 개발/운영 전략 수립 및 전략적 의사 결정에 중대한 시사점을 제공한다.

본 논문에서는 DDA 환경상품 무역자유화 협상에 대비하여 세계 주요국과 우리나라의 환경산업 제품에 대한 무역구조를 분석하였다. OECD에서 제안한 161종의 환경상품 리스트를 기반으로 2002년부터 2011년까지 10년간 전 세계 환경상품의 무역 통계를 조사하였다. 환경산업의 세계 무역규모는 2002년 4,639억 달러에서 2011년 1조4,778억 달러로 3배 이상 증가하였다. 우리나라의 2011년 환경상품의 세계시장 점유율은 3.2%이며, 무역특화지수는 -0.128, 현시비교우위지수는 1.002이며 세계시장에서 일본과 수출경합도가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 논문에서 우리나라의 환경상품의 국제경쟁력은 무역규모에 비해 국제경쟁력이 상대적으로 약한 것으로 조사되었다. 따라서 향후 지속될 DDA 환경상품 자유화 협상에서 우리나라는 환경상품의 유예기간 설정 등 단계별 무역자유화 추진과 국내 산업의 경쟁력 향상을 위해 노력해야 할 것이다.

In evaluating the competitiveness of construction companies and their development strategies, patents are a useful and objective source of technical information. In this study, the cutting-edge technologies of construction industries of China, Japan, and South Korea were investigated based on the data of patent applications filed by a total of 15 construction companies (five companies from each country). The related technologies were classified into six core technology groups based on their keywords. After that, we used four patent analysis methods: time series analysis, IP (Intellectual Property) emergence level analysis, spiral module analysis, and OS (Object-Solution) Matrix analysis, to identify the promising technologies/vacant technologies for global construction companies in China, Japan, and South Korea, and to analyze the technical competitiveness of the three countries. The findings of this study showed that each country can claim a relative technological advantage over the others. Overall, 3D printing and offsite construction technology, data acquisition technology, AR and VR technology are expected to be promising in the Asian region. The present study contributes to the body of knowledge by expanding our understanding of technological innovation for the competitiveness of companies and the technology development strategies pursued by the construction industries of China, Japan, and South Korea.

National efforts responding to climate change is directly connected to competitiveness of the urban environment. Practice in the daily life of the individual citizens is prerequisite for the paradigm shift that can be made by the reduction of the city's energy consumption and low-carbon green growth. Therefore, the comprehensive understanding combined with the educational programs is required on the issue of the ecological environment and the urban environment competitiveness. In this paper, the meaning and role of urban ecological environment will be researched first. it also takes a look at the content of curriculum and analyses domestic policies related to environmental education of primary and middle schools. In addition, video documentary on urban ecological environment will be analyzed for the development of educational media dealing with environmental training in schools. Consequently, urban ecological environment shown in video media content will be identified and the advantage of this possibility as a medium of education is to be proposed.
