Franchising has proved over many years to be a successful commercial vehicle for the international distribution of products and services. However, there has long been missing a user-friendly model contract that would reflect the diversity of international franchising contracts. Because the ICC has drafted a model form of international franchising contracts, taking into account the most commonly encountered clauses in franchising agreements, their model could be used as a checklist of the core obligations of a cross-border franchise contract. Because there is no internationally agreed-upon uniform legislation on franchising, parties must rely on national laws and regulations applicable to the international franchise (when such laws and regulations exist) and should therefore very carefully draft stipulations for the legal status of the contract. This study has been intended to cite some provisions for striking a fair balance between the interests of the franchisor and those of the franchisee and for avoiding unfair trade acts in international franchising contracts.

The Convention of International Telecommunication, and original law and code on radio communication clearly regulates that the radio communication is a syntheic science compounded organically with various aspects of the humanities, social and natural science respectively. In addition, The Union of International Telecommunication has put into effect legal ideas and legal regulations on the basis of those principles and science for international cooperation. The goal of these international regulations is to pursuit world-wide peace and human welfare. In this regards, these regulations are very similar with the ideal of the charter of United Nations and Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Considering the established history in a sense, we can safely say that the former has a preceding idea than the latter. Accordingly, the principle of science and wide-ranging Caracteristics of the radio communication must be applied to the problems of scientific research and educational training, not to speak of the concerned fields of legislation, executive administration and industry.

Explosions of dangerous goods such as accidents at Iri and Yongcheon Stations bring about a big damage and toss of assets. And leakage of toxic and dangerous materials may cause environmental pollution. Therefore, in developed countries, safely and operation codes for the carriage of dangerous goods were already established. One of the codes is RID: Regulations concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Rail. In this study, RID code was analyzed and summarized for the drawing-up of a korean safety standard code.

It is no exaggeration to say that today's world economy is dependent on international trade, which is the result of inter-state transactions. As the vast majority of international goods transport is transported by international shipping, interest in the seaborne transport field is natural in international and trade studies. In particular, in the case of international shipping, as it is the basis of typical international transportation, changes in international shipping due to the innovation of technology may have an effect on international trade norms. In this study, as a result of evaluating port preference in a hypothetical scenario by using the Design of Experiments method, bunkering as well as port service, which is traditionally important, was identified as a major competitive factor of future ports. It has been revealed that, above all, the port to respond to the future is the continued importance of port services and the supply of ship fuel. Therefore, port authorities are providing implications that LNG bunkering infrastructure suitable for international environmental regulations is important.

This paper analyzes the three issues related to the effect of environmental regulations on the Korean trades with gravity equation model: the effect on the Korean exports, the bilateral trade flows between the Korea and the trade partners, and the Korean international competitiveness. For all three issues we carried the empirical tests with fixed effect estimation methods for total industries, non-pollution industries, pollution industries, and also 16 individual pollution industries. We use industry panel data for the 120 largest trading countries with Korea for the years 2000-2010. The Environmental Performance Index (EPI) is used as the proxy variable for the environmental regulation. The empirical result shows that while GDPs of both Korea and its trading partners are very important factors affecting positively the Korean trades for all industries, the environmental regulation of the importing country would be a definite trade barrier to the Korean pollution industries, but not a definite one for the non-pollution industries. In addition, the stricter environmental regulations of Korea's trade partners would weaken the Korean international competitiveness of Korean pollution industries. In this regard, the Porter Hypothesis would have not appeared in the Korean trades of pollution industries during the period observed in this study.

China having largest market in the world, has been criticized by its trading partner countries due to its unfair trade practices, particularly in the field of anti-dumping regulation. The main reasons for such criticism seem to come from the incomplete anti-dumping law as instrument to protect the industry concerned. In 2001, though new anti-dumping law was established to replace the former one by revising it to meet the needs for economic development which should be secured for china to take part in the competition world as the new member of WTO. The provisions concerned have been evaluated not to be sufficient and efficient from the viewpoint of the safeguard mechanism, while are required to be modified to meet the real world of international trade law. I consider that as the biggest partner of chinese trade activity, we will need to maintain a well understanding of the Chinese anti-dumping regulations. So this report conducts the Chinese anti-dumping regulations, compares between the chinese regulations and the WTO agreement, and studies deeply in to the problems and the improvements of the Chinese anti-dumping regulations.

The International Association of Classification Societies(IACS) can trace its original back to the International Conference on Load Lines of 1930 and was established in 1968. Long before the formal foundation of IACS, a number of working parties existed to carry out studies of specific topics concerning technical rules of classification. The general terms of reference of the working groups of IACS are to draft unified rules and regulations between Societies, to study safety standards at the request of the International Maritime Organization(IMO) and to prepare unified interpretations of technical regulations of international conventions. As an associate member since 1975, the Korean Resister of Shipping has been actively attending the meeting of IACS working parties. In this paper, summaries of major agenda of the working parties including history of unified requirements and relevant technical tendencies are explained for the purpose of providing better understanding of the rule development.
