The study investigated USFK's crisis communication responding to the case of two Koran girls' death. The two girls were hit by an American tank accidently. The accident has resulted in anti-American demonstrations by a large number of South Korean. The current research attempted to see what problems USFK's crisis communication with Korean publics. Through analyzing USFK news release in Korea and Army News (ARNEWS) in America regarding the case, the study answered what crisis communication strategies USFK used and How the USFK responded to the crisis. The results showed that USFK used full apology strategy and its crisis response was immediate, but prior reputation of USFK seemed making USFK's effort fruitless.

본 연구는 향후 글로벌 자원위기 발생 가능성을 점검해보고, 자원가격의 상승이 우리경제에 어떠한 의미와 영향을 줄 것인지 살펴본다. 향후 글로벌 자원 공급의 제약은 세계경제 성장을 둔화시킬 것이다. 뿐만 아니라 자원위기에 대한 적절한 대응여하에 따라 각국의 경제발전 방향이 결정될 것이다. 자원의 대외 의존도가 높은 우리나라의 경우 현재와 같은 자원 비효율적인 산업구조를 유지한다면 거시경제 충격과 산업 경쟁력 상실로 이어질 수 있다. 따라서 자원 소비가 많은 철강, 화학 등의 제조업부문에서 자원 절감, 제품의 고부가가치화 등이 이루어져야 할 시점이다. 앞으로의 자원위기는 구조적인 공급 제약이 근본 원인이 될 것이다. 따라서 일시적인 위기관리보다 기업, 소비자 등 경제주체들이 자원의 희소성 심화라는 패러다임 변화에 적응할 수 있도록 유도해야 할 것이다. 산업의 구조전환(Industry Transformation)이 원활하게 이루어질 수 있는 환경을 조성해야 한다.

오늘날 글로벌 금융환경에서는 국가 간 자본이동이 확대되고 금융시스템의 밀접한 연계가 이루어진다. 따라서 어느 특정 국가의 금융위기는 지역 및 글로벌 금융위기로 전이될 소지가 매우 높다. 최근 미국발 글로벌 금융위기(global financial crisis)는 과거 1997~1998년 동아시아 금융위기 이후 동아시아 역내 국가들이 추진하였던 지역 금융협력 및 통합의 필요성을 각인시키는 계기가 되었다. 동아시아 지역 내 금융위기의 재발을 방지하기 위해 역내 국가들은 독자적인 유동성 공급을 위한 치앙마이합의(CMI)와 치앙마이합의 다자화(CMIM)를 실현하였다. CMI와 CMIM에 따른 역내국들 간 통화스왑협정(bilateral swap arrangement)의 확대는 역내 금융위기 발생 시 외화유동성 부족 해결, 지나친 외환보유고 축적에 따른 기회비용 제거, 그리고 견고한 금융협력을 통한 금융통합 추진 및 상호무역의 촉진에 목적이 있다. 동아시아는 특유의 생산네트워크 체제(production sharing system)구축으로 역내교역 비중이 대단히 높다. 금융 통합의 사전적 단계인 긴밀화된 금융협력이 지속적으로 확대되고 있는 상황에서 동아시아 국가들의 금융협력이 역내 수출입 물류에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대해 임의효과모형 (random effect estimation)과 고정효과모형(fixed effect estimation)을 통해 분석하였다.

Available data on the recent global financial crisis (GFC) show that it lasted between the second quarter (Q2) of 2007 and the fourth quarter (Q4) of 2009. Australia is one of the first economies to fully recover from this crisis. This study explorles the role played by the Australian construction industry in stimulating economic growth during the recession. In order to investigate the macro-variability trend during the financial crisis, data were collected and analysed relating to the quarterly GDP of Australia and selected countries between Q1 2000 and Q4 2009. Specifically, changes in the construction industry's GDP were compared with aggregate GDP changes in Australian economy and similar indices in the 'Group of 7' (G7) countries and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries. Moreover, specific attention was focused on Germany, France, Japan, United States of America (USA) and United Kingdom (UK). Graphical and Pearson's correlation methods were used to analyse the relationships between changes in construction GDP and Australia's overall economic growth during the recession. In addition, an attempt was made to develop a regression model for predicting economic growth during the recent recession using changes in gross fixed capital formation (GFCF), changes in construction GDP and the impact of these changes on national economy. Analysis shows a slight contraction in construction activities during the crisis; however construction triggered significant growth in the economy during the crisis period and afterwards. This appears to be the major difference between Australia and other major economies that have experienced a longer recession.

This paper reviews four different kinds of currency crisis models proposed to explain the Korean crisis of 1997 to examine which model is more relevant to explain the Korean crisis of 2008. According to the author's investigation, the 'Frenkel-Neftci' cycle is more relevant model to interpret the Korean crisis of 2008. In 2008, spreads opened due to, first, high interest rate policy by the Korean government aimed to suppress real estate price increase, and, second, the expectation about exchange rate appreciation, and thirdly stock market returns after recovering the crisis. Then the international capital market catastrophe due to the subprime crises produced the sudden change of expectation of the market participants. Huge capital outflows resulted from the credit crunch in the international capital markets, and the possibility of exchange rate depreciation by the Korean government to promote exports in the course of the global recession.

세계 자동차산업은 제품 결함, 비윤리적 기업경영과 같은 다양한 위기를 겪어왔다. 본 연구는 세계 시장에서 가장 큰 비중을 차지하는 중국 소비자를 대상으로 자동차기업의 위기 커뮤니케이션 전략의 효과성을 검증하기 위해 위기책임성, 위기유형과 위기커뮤니케이션 전략이 기업태도, 부정적 커뮤니케이션 의도, 불매운동 참여의도에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 서울에 거주하는 중국인 학생 1,600명을 대상으로 2(위기책임성: 고·저) × 2(위기유형: 기업 능력/사회적 책임감) × 2(위기커뮤니케이션 전략: 수용/방어) 설계 실험을 실시하였다. 높은 위기책임성과 사회적 책임감 위기유형은 비호의적 기업태도, 높은 부정적 커뮤니케이션 의도와 불매운동 참여의도로 연결되었다. 위기책임성과 위기커뮤니케이션 전략은 유의한 상호작용을 보였다. 위기책임성이 높을 경우에는 수용 전략이 방어 전략보다 더 효과적으로 나타났으나 위기책임성이 낮은 경우에는 전략 간의 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 기업의 사회적 책임감 위기 경우에는 위기책임성에 상관없이 전략간 차이가 나타나지 않았고, 기업 능력 위기경우에는 위기책임성이 높을 때 수용 전략의 효과가 효과적으로 나타났다.

We analyzed the structures and properties of the global financial market networks using social network analysis approach. The Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) lengths and networks of the global financial markets based on the correlation coefficients have been analyzed. Firstly, similar to the previous studies on the global stock indices using MST length, the diversification effects in the global multi-asset portfolio can disappear during the crisis as the correlations among the asset class and within the asset class increase due to the system risks. Second, through the network visualization, we found the clustering of the asset class in the global financial markets network, which confirms the possible diversification effect in the global multi-asset portfolio. Meanwhile, we found the changes in the structure of the network during the crisis. For the last one, in terms of the degree centrality, the stock indices were the most influential to other assets in the global financial markets network, while in terms of the betweenness centrality, Gold, Silver and AUD. In the practical perspective, we propose the methods such as MST length and network visualization to monitor the change of the correlation risk for the risk management of the multi-asset portfolio.

This study investigates the causal relationship between stock prices and exchange rates for six Middle Eastern countries, namely, Egypt, Iran, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, and Saudi Arabia before and during (after) the 2007 global financial crisis for the period between January 2004 and September 2015. The sample is divided into two sub-periods, that is, the period from January 1, 2004 to September 30, 2007 and the period from October 1, 2007 to September 30, 2015, to represent the pre-crisis period and the post-crisis period, respectively. Using Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model in a multivariate framework (including two control variables, inflation rates and oil prices) the results suggest that in the case of Jordan, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, there exists bidirectional causalities after the crisis period but not the before. The opposite status is available for the case of Iran. In the case of Oman, there is bidirectional causality between the variables of interest in both periods. The results also reveal that the relationship between stock prices and exchange rates has become stronger after the 2007 global financial crisis. Overall, the results of this study indicate that fluctuations in foreign exchange markets can significantly affect stock markets in the Middle East.

This paper examines the effects of financial crises on the long memory volatility dependency of daily exchange returns focusing on the Asian crisis in 97-98 and the Global crisis in 08-09. By using the daily KRW-USD and JPY-USD exchange rates which have different trading regions and volumes, this paper first applies both the parametric FIGARCH model and the semi-parametric Local Whittle method to estimate the long memory volatility dependency of the daily returns and the temporally aggregated returns of the two exchange rates. Then it compares the effects of the two financial crises on the long memory volatility dependency of the daily returns. The estimation results reflect that the long memory volatility dependency of the KRW-USD is generally greater than that of the JPY-USD returns and the long memory dependency of the two returns appears to be invariant to temporal aggregation. And, the two financial crises appear to affect the volatility dynamics of all the returns by inducing greater long memory dependency in the volatility process of the exchange returns, but the degree of the effects of the two crises seems to be different on the exchange rates.

This study develops an early warning system (EWS) to prevent the banking crisis. The proposed system incorporates both the perspective of crises and fundamental characteristics of the banking system in each economy. A fuzzy logic method with data from 1990-2009 is employed to construct the EWS of banking crisis based on 21 pre-determined variables from the aspect of total economy, financial and banking sectors. Our results show: Firstly, South Korea recorded higher probability to have a banking crisis in 1997 as there was large foreign debt in dollars. Secondly, China, Australia and New Zealand banking systems appear to be vulnerable to the crisis in 2007. The surge of China export, FDIs and booming stock market were signs of a heated economy. Australia with high commodity prices was also vulnerable to crisis. Thirdly, Australia, China, Japan and New Zealand banking systems appear to be exposed to the higher chance of a crisis in 2010. Japan with deflation coupled with expensive yen did not augur well for its export. Overall, the findings show that in Asian Financial Crisis 1997/98 and Global Financial Crisis 2008/09, many economies are exposed to a higher probability of having the crisis and this shows an urgent need of having surveillance in these economies.
