최근 자유무역지역은 물류 기능에 생산 기능을 적절히 보완하는 복합형을 지향하는 것이 일반적이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 광양만권 자유무역지역은 전통적인 물류 기능에만 집중되어 생산 기능 도입을 통한 부가가치 창출은 미흡한 수준에 있다. 따라서 자유무역지역을 지역 및 국가 발전의 성장 동력으로 활용하기 위한 기능 강화 방안이 제시되어야 한다. 기능 강화를 위해서는 생산 기능 도입을 통합 복합형 자유 무역지역 지향과 관리 운영상의 효율화 방안이 필요한 것으로 분석된다. 주요 연구 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 단기적으로는 기존에 자유무역지역으로 지정되어 있는 서측 배후단지의 일부를 활용하여 생산 기능을 강화하고, 중장기적으로는 자유무역지역의 확대 지정을 통한 생산 기능의 강화가 필요하다. 둘째, 효율적인 관리 운영을 위해 단기적으로는 자유무역지역 간의 협력체계를 구축하는 것이 필요하며, 중장기적으로는 자유무역지역 간의 중복된 기능을 단일화하고 통합 관리하는 정책적 방안이 필요하다.

Purpose - This paper explains how free trade agreements (FTAs) work as a building block to achieve global free trade and be better than other trade regimes. Design/methodology - This paper utilizes a trade liberalization game setup. Three countries choose a trade agreement strategy based on a given trade regime. Trade agreement is made only when all member countries agree. The paper evaluates each trade regime concerning FTAs and customs union (CU) by area size of global free trade equilibrium on the technology or demand gap between countries. Findings - FTAs make global free trade easier. In this game, there are two main reasons for failure to reach global free trade. First, a trade regime with FTAs makes non-member face difficulties in refusing trade agreements in the existence of a technology gap than a trade regime without FTAs. Also, a trade regime with FTAs causes it harder to exclude non-members in the existence of a demand gap than a trade regime with only CUs. Therefore, a trade regime with FTAs can work better in reaching global free trade. Originality/value - The concept of "implicit coordination" was used, which assumes that FTA members keep external tariffs for non-members the same as before an FTA. Without this consideration, FTA members lower their tariffs to non-members, and it makes non-member refuse free trade easier. FTA can prevent it sufficiently only with implicit coordination. This makes the trade regime with FTAs more effective to reach global free trade.

Nowadays, South Korea widely concludes the FTA with other countries, and the trade area has extended toward the neighboring continents and seas. Mongolia is a country with smallest economic entity but large in area and with abundant underground resources. And it's a main strategic zone of Eurasia. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Mongolia began to turn to market economy, and eagerly made effort to open and reform. With the expanse of trade and economy cooperation between South Korea and Mongolia, Mongolia started its sea road expanding. And the south Korea went to inland to get the necessary resources. Both of them feed its needs and obtain its profits.

The purpose of this paper is to study of WTO regulations related FTA such as Understanding on the Interpretation of Article XXIV of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade(GATT) 1994 and General Agreement on Trade in Service(GATS). In this study, the First introduced FTA rules of WTO in the chapter 2. The WTO agreement includes the "General Agreement on Tariffs an Trade(GATT) 1994". This instrument, known as "GATT 1994", is based on upon the original General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade referred to as "GATT 1947". The Second analyzed the relations between FTA and Article XXIV of GATT 1994 in the chapter 3. The Article XXIV of GATT 1994 is an agreement between the distinctive members for liberalizing trade. The Article XXIV of GATT 1994 is consist of three parts such as customs unions, free-trade area, and interim agreements that WTO is referred to as "Regional Trade Agreement(RTA)". There is a difference between the customs unions and the free-trade area. In the customs unions rules, the members should have the same tarifficatio and the same trade provision against non-members, but in the free-trade are a rules, the member is not necessary to have the same tarifficatio and the same trade provision against non-members. But, the both rules have a liberalization of trade in a common as a revoking tariffs and the government regulations for interfering with trade. In this case, however, the both rules include an inconsistency ele ment under WTO rules such as Most-Favoured-Nation Treatment(MFN) and National Treatment on Internal Taxation and Regulation(NTITR). This study reviewed neither inconsistency nor consistency on the both rules with the RTA of WTO under Article XXIV of GATT 1994. The Third analyzed the relations between FTA and Article V of GATS under WTO in the chapter 4. The GATS is a rule of WTO for the growing importance of trade in services for the growth and development of the world conomy. The GATS is a new rule rather than GATT's rule for concerning goods trade. The Article V of GATS under WTO is a rule that makes based on upon the Article XXIV of GATT. Therefore, If it is to be examined the Article V of GATS, it should be referred to a and an interpretation of the text of the Article XXIV of GATT. However, the Article V of GATS is on the undeveloped stage compare to the Article XXIV of GATT. Because, the statistics of WTO showed that the RTAs under the Article XXIV of GATT have 150 cases completed between nations, but the RTAs under the Article IV of GATS have 10 cases completed between nations. The Forth examined the interpretation of FTA rules under WTO in the chapter 5. Concerning the consistency issue of customs unions and free-trade area under the Article XXIV of GATT, the working parties in customs unions and in free-trade area have been reviewed the consistency is sue which had been not if to GATT. However, the parties finished to get up with one accord the both that are a consistency of argument and an inconsistency of argument with the interpretation of the Article XXIV of GATT. The interpretation of the Article XXIV of GATT has been raised as the issues when EEC by Rome Treaty established in 1957. However, the consistency is sue only agreed 6 working parties out of 69 working parties finished the reviewing of the interpretation up to the end of 1994. Also the consistency issue concerned with the special privilege measure of the customs unions and tree-trade area under the Article XXIV of GATT discussed only 3 cases between working parties up to now and did not accepted as an issue for working parties' report. In conclusion in the chapter 6, this study raised the issues of WTO that are a conference of a new round under WTO and the issues of clarity between FTA rule and WTO regulation.

자유무역지역제도는 1970년부터 제조업 중심으로 산업단지형 자유무역지역에서 시행되어 왔으며, 입주기업에게 조세 감면 및 규제 완화 등의 혜택을 제공함으로써 외국인 투자를 유치하고 무역물동량 증가를 창출하는데 큰 역할을 해 왔다. 그러나 산업단지형 자유무역지역의 외국인투자 유치실적이 현저히 떨어지고 있는 실정이다. 한편으로, 항만형 자유무역지역에서는 항만 물동량의 증가로 발전 가능성을 크게 내포하고 있어, 현재까지 제조업 중심으로 시행되어 온 자유무역지역제도의 발전 방향을 점검해 볼 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 자유무역지역의 역할과 운영 실태를 파악하고 이에 대한 문제점을 도출하고자 한다. 이를 위해, 항만형 자유무역지역에 특화된 비즈니스 모델을 분석하여 문제점을 파악하고, 물품보관을 목적으로 한 내국 물품의 관세영역으로 재반출에 대한 제도 개선방안을 제시하며, 간이 시뮬레이션을 통하여 개선방안에 대한 효과를 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 제도 개선으로 자유무역지역을 국제물류허브 및 글로벌배송센터로 이용하고자 하는 외국기업을 유치하는데 매우 중요한 요소로 작용할 것이다.
