부산지역은 일본에 대한 교역의존도가 높으며 경제환경 변동에 대한 부산의 교역탄력성이 낮은 것을 알 수 있다. 품목별로 부산과 일본과는 산업내무역의 정도가 상당히 다르게 나타났고 많은 제품들에서 수평적 산업내 무역과 고품질 수직적 산업내무역 뿐만 아니라 저품질 수직적 산업내무역이 발생하고 있다. 일본시장에서 비교우위를 살펴본 결과 비교열위가 있는 품목이 많았는데 특히 1970년대 부산의 주종 수출품인 신발은 일본과는 낮은 산업내무역과 함께 2001년부터 시장비교열위가 상당히 나타났다. 부산의 중요한 산업인 자동차 관련 산업은 일본시장에서 승용자동차 및 기타의 차량, 화물자동차 및 특수목적차량 등에 있어서 시장비교열위가 크게 나타났다. 무역수지기여도 분석결과 2000년대 초반에는 화학물과 기계 및 운수장비 등의 제품들에 있어서 무역수지 기여도가 양수와 음수로 나타나는 등 변동이 다소 나타났다. 부산의 품목별 비교우위패턴의 회귀분석결과, 일본시장에서 비교우위가 높은 품목들은 비교우위가 조금씩 감소하고 있는 반면 비교열위가 있는 품목들은 비교열위가 감소해가고 있는 수출구조를 가지고 있으며 또한 비교우위의 정도가 품목별로 수렴해가고 있다.

The objective of this study has two folds. The first is to investigate current global certification system and the second is to suggest some possible solutions for expanding global e-trade networks. Both research and industrial communities recognize the importance of global certification problems in connection with global e-trade payment because global e-trade volume continue to grow. But not many research results have been reported to the communities in identifying some barriers against active global certification systems. This paper intents to suggest some possible solutions for improved global certification system and the results are summarized as follows: First, strict certification structure has to be relaxed by considering diverse mutual certification methods in global e-trade practice. This paper provides some comparative results about mutual certification methods among different nations. Second, numerous business models have to be derived such that they can be applied to other global certification applications than global e-trade. Third, global certified networks have to be expanded beyond mutual certification level. Once the certified structure among different nations have been established then diverse certified authority channels have to be implemented. Finally, since Korea has already established very good public certification infrastructure within the nation this platform has to be positioned in the center of global e-trade networks. This paper has of course to accept a critique such as this study provided limited results to generalized global e-trade certification model, and therefore empirical study for assessing robust model should be pursued in the future.

Korea dairy industry is placed on the very critical situation with the progression of free trade marketing system internationally. The sterilized milk or pasteurized extended shelf life milk can be considered as the international trade dairy products. Now all dairy foods would be selling in international market. To keep and improve our dairy foods market, the Korea dairy system improvement committee was inaugurated in 1995. This committee has done so many works to improve or dairy system such as the settlement of raw milk supply and demand, centralization of raw milk collection, ideal raw milk price system and dairy foods marketing structure, etc.

Purpose - This paper aims to investigate the competitiveness and complementarity of the agricultural products trade between Korea and Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) countries. The study evaluates the opportunities and challenges that Korea's agricultural sector faces after joining the CPTPP, and suggests strategies to deepen cooperation and expand Korea's agricultural products trade. Design/methodology - To achieve these objectives, we analyze the trade competition and cooperation relationship between Korea and CPTPP countries in the agricultural products trade. This study uses data from Chapters HS1-24 in UN Comtrade from 2012 to 2022, and applies the indices of revealed comparative advantage, export similarity, and trade complementarity to examine the trade dynamics. Furthermore, we use an Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model to predict the agricultural products trade complementarity index between Korea and CPTPP countries from 2022 to 2031. Findings - The findings of our analysis reveal that Korea's agricultural products trade competitiveness is weak compared to that of CPTPP countries, and Korea's agricultural products are at a competitive disadvantage. On the whole, the similarity index of agricultural products trade exports between Korea and CPTPP countries is low, the structure of agricultural products export is quite different, and trade competition is relatively moderate. The trade complementarity index between Korea and CPTPP countries is generally high, with strong complementarity and a large space for cooperation and development. The ARIMA model shows that in the next ten years, although the agricultural products trade complementarity index fluctuates, but is generally high, there will still be a complementarity advantage in the future. Originality/value - This study is the first attempt to investigate the competitiveness and complementarity of the agricultural products trade between Korea and CPTPP countries. We also introduce an ARIMA model to forecast and analyze the future agricultural products trade complementarity index. Our study provides new perspectives and solutions for the future development of Korea's agricultural products trade after joining the CPTPP.

This study aims to analyze the effects of the smart technologies acceptance on global supply chain innovation and export performance in Korean small and medium trading companies. As the world prepares for the advent of the 4th industrial revolution the level of smart technology acceptance by Korean small and medium trading companies has not yet reached the level that is compatible with the change of international paradigm. In this respect, this study aims to promote the acceptance of smart technologies and suggest a need of more practical policy for securing international market competitiveness through innovation of global supply chain structure of Korean trading companies. According to the empirical research results, the smart technology acceptance had a significant effect on both the internal supply chain innovation and the export performance. Also, the external supply chain innovation significantly affected export performance. These results suggested that Korean trading companies need to be more active and positive in accepting smart technology so that they can gain more competitive advantage in the 4th industrial revolution era.

국제주의 질서나 지역주의 및 쌍무주의 질서가 일응 무역자유화를 지향하는 점에서 양자는 일치하면서도 후자가 역내 자유주의와 역외 보호주의라는 양면성을 가지므로 갈등과 모순이 있을 수 밖에 없다. 그러나 차선 이론이나 GATT나 WTO의 현실인정의 예외 규정으로 보완내지 공존관계에 있음이 현실이고 나아가 지역주의와 쌍무주의가 국제주의의 실험장이 될 수도 있다. 우리나라의 통상현안과 관련하여 볼 때 WTO출범에도 불구하고 이처럼 국제주의질서와는 별개로 지역주의 및 쌍무주의 질서가 현실적으로 공존함으로써 우리의 어려운 통상환경의요인으로 작용하고 있으므로 대국적인 통상정책으로 이에의 적절한 대응이 요구된다. 요컨데 우리경제가 OECD에 가입했고 선진경제대열에 진입하고 있음을 감안할 때 범세계적 시각에서 통상관련제도를 국제주의 질서의 측면에서 최대한 개편 보강하여 통상협력 하는 한편, 지역주의나 쌍무주의 측면에서도 권역별로 충화된 수단의 최적 Mix를 도출함으로서 조화로운 통상관계를 정립시켜 나가야 할 것이다.
