현대사회가 당면한 다양한 문제를 해결할 새로운 주체로 '제4섹터(the fourth sector)'가 주목받고 있다. 제4섹터는 사회적경제 기업으로 대표되는 제3섹터의 지나친 정부 의존도와 서비스 모델 동형화의 문제점을 해결하고자 등장하였다(Howaldt & Schwarz, 2010). 이러한 제4섹터의 핵심 주체로서 소셜벤처가 언급되고 있다(경기연구원, 2018). 그러나 아직까지 소셜벤처에 대한 학술적·정책적 개념이 모호한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 사회의 포용적 성장을 도모하기 위해 제4섹터로서의 소셜벤처 개념을 명확히 하고, 소셜벤처 생태계 활성화를 위한 발전전략을 연구하고자 한다. 이를 위해 선행연구를 토대로 제3섹터와 차별화된 소셜벤처의 개념을 정립하고, 생태계 활성화를 위한 중간지원조직의 중요성을 제시하였다. 나아가 생태계 활성화 전략을 제안하기 위해 소셜벤처 중간지원조직의 세부 유형을 도출하고, 사회혁신단계별 중간지원조직의 역할에 대해 제언하였다.

The distribution sector is affected by a wide range of regulations. Many of these are related to health and safety, others are related to urban planning and environmental issues, whereas some mainly have an economic basis. But, regulations many be unduly restrictive, in which case they can drive up costs and ultimately prices, or they may, in some cases, reduce consumer choice. Unduly restrictive regulations could also increase costs indirectly, by reducing competition and thus lead to lower productivity growth. In the past few years, distribution sector has gone through drastic changes due to deregulation and market opening. Implementation of regulatory reforms served as an opportunity to change laws and systems which had been an obstacle to development of distribution sector. Market opening of distribution sector became a turning point to promote competition among domestic and foreign firms. However, for small and medium scale of the typical retail enterprises which were in no position to compete in terms of prices, additional facilities, and services, faced a threat of diminished trading area, and even of their existence. Because, large firms may have greater market power than small firms, as they can more easily extract favorable terms when procuring goods, and may also be able to deter entry by advertising outlays or access to the best sites. In addition, larger chain stores armied with sufficient capital dominated trading area and reduced customer's welfare by abusing their monopoly power when competing with other shops, and are often cited as an example of adverse effects of local monopoly. In order to minimize such adverse effects and to foster competition, regulatory reforms in distribution sector should set its goal to promote sound and stable distribution activities through market principle and restoring competition principle, and ultimately to boost customers welfare. Therefore, deregulation in distribution sector should be implemented in a way to promote customers welfare, eliminate entry barriers, and expand competition principle such as productivity and efficiency competition. However, it should be also recognized that deregulation of system alone is not enough to develop the distribution sector. To compete in a increasingly concentrated industry, small enterprises increasingly engage in co-operative arrangements, such as buying groups, strategic alliances or franchise agreements.

This study provides a background on the growth of Indian automobile industry under different regulatory regimes. It is observed that the international joint ventures have played a key role in the growth of the sector. The study further examines the motives for forming IJVs in the auto component sector and also identifies the criteria for choosing the joint venture partner to mitigate conflicts. These two specific attributes form the core towards transfer of technology, promoting innovation and also act as a catalyst for adopting and choosing appropriate technology. The study brings out the relationship between motives, partner selection criteria and performance of the IJVs. Results indicate that firms gave maximum importance to technological skills, quality control measures and proprietary knowledge in selecting IJV partners. It is also observed that the motives affect the partner selection criteria in terms of skill and resources needed from the partner.

The standard issue in the information and telecommunication industry is increasingly important with the rapid development of technology. This paper proposes an index model which can measure the degree of standardization in the Korean information and telecommunication field. We first classified ICT sector into 14 sub-sectors. Then for each sub-sector, we considered a set of important determinants to measure the level of standardization, and constructed a linear equation using this set of determinants. Finally we estimated the relative degree of importance of each determinant using the AHP methodology. The proposed model found that overall level of standardization in the Korean ICT industry is relatively low, and ‘IMT-2000 technology’ and ‘computer network technology’ among 14 sub-sectors are highly standardized sub-sectors. The validity of the proposed model was also partially proved using two different methods, holistic and historical approach.

Experiments were conducted in a large-scale Ward-type tornado simulator to study tornado-like vortices. Both flow velocities and the pressures at the surface beneath the vortices were measured. An interpretation of these measurements enabled an assessment of the mean flow field as well as the mean and fluctuating characteristics of the surface pressure deficit, which is a manifestation of the flow fluctuation aloft. An emphasis was placed on the effect of the aspect ratio of the tornado simulator on the characteristics of the simulated flow and the corresponding surface pressure deficit, especially the evolution of these characteristics due to the transition of the flow from a single-celled vortex to a two-celled vortex with increasing swirl ratio.

CALS has been a hot issue in the industry related to the information technology in order to achieve the strategic competitive advantage, especially in the field of logistics and manufacturing firms. Nonetheless, while there is an abundance of literature advocating the strategic role of the concept in the field of logistics and manufacturing firms, little attention has been given to the planning process to be applied to public administration sectors. This research conducts a case study on Firm C, which is one of the government institutes, investigating its planning processes for which CALS concept should be applied. Based on the analysis of the document and interviews with the author, by applying information system planning and value chain models, this paper concludes that CALS concept can be successfully applied to the public administration sectors likewise industry sectors.

The trend towards forming economic blocs coupled with global economic arrangements such as DDA and FTA increase pressure on the liberalization of the agricultural sector. South Korea is taking part in the DDA negotiations. Once the DDA negotiations are implemented, the extent of liberation of the agricultural market is expected to be wider and timing of market opening is sooner than those effects of the UR agricultural agreement. A reduction in tariff rates and the government subsidy will follow, accordingly. However, many analysts in the agricultural sector express deep concern over a negative development in local agricultural market as demonstrated in China where the local market was dominated by imported agricultural products. This study aimed to investigate progress that China made in favor of the agricultural industry, including environment-friendly agricultural policy, and suggest ideas to drive the development of the agricultural industry in a better direction in Korea by comparing the two countries.

Recently, Korea have experienced numbers of FTAs with other countries, including Chile, EFTA(European Free Trade Association), Singapore, ASEAN(Association of South-East Asian Nations), and U.S. In particular, FTA with U.S. are expected to cause huge impact on food markets as well as agricultural sector in Korea. Many researches have analyzed and discussed about the impact on agricultural sector after Korean-U.S. FTA, but very small number of studies focus on the impact of Korean-U.S. FTA on food markets. The purpose of the paper is to discuss the impact of Korea-U.S. FTA on Korean dairy market. For the numerical simulations, this paper focus on the impact on cheese and butter markets. The results of numerical analysis in the paper will be helpful for the future research, because few (maybe no) studies conduct the numerical analysis to measure the impact of Korea-U.S. FTA on Korean food market.

This study analyzes patenting practices in the pharmaceutical industry and the impacts of sequential innovation. The main argument of the research is that strategic patenting is common in the pharmaceutical sector and it is legal within the context of patent law. However, when these practices have negative effects on the competition process post-grant, the practices that are legal under patent law may come into conflict with antitrust laws, which are not applied. The study brings into question whether sequential patenting practices characteristic of the pharmaceutical industry encourage or discourage innovation, and moreover, the overall functionality of the patent system. Ultimately, the functionality of the patent system creates market incentives that neglect consumer, i.e., patient, welfare; potential solutions to deal with the shortcomings are discussed.

The objective of this study is to examine the existence of technology gap convergence between manufacturing sector and Grand Total over 1970 to 2000 under nonlinearity relationship in Korea. We use the concept of technology convergence as the stationarity test of technology gap over the relevant periods. Our empirical results provide two important implications for the future study: First, our empirical results strongly support the nonlinearity for technology convergence in our country and an empirical tests based on the assumption of linearity will be biased and wrong industry and economic policy implications. Second, we find two regimes i.e. technology convergence and technology divergence between manufacture sector and Grand Total in our country over 1970 to 2000. These study results imply that the relevant industry and economic policies for technology and R&D implementations be with a causation.
