In a rapidly changing global environment and the massive development in IT technology, Manufacturing SMEs have difficulties in lack of resources and competencies continued to have strong growth potential "Korean Hidden Champion(K Champ)". In order to overcome the difficulties of Manufacturing SMEs, we examined the core competencies using the AHP and proposed the K Champ development strategy. The implications in the academic is as follows: First, the suggestions for development strategy plan was drawn for the K Champ's core competencies with the recognized importance by the CEO or business executives. Secondly, the manufacturing SMEs were broken down by industry structural characteristics variables(sales amounts, industry sectors, business types and delivery methods) and the importance was investigated, analyzed and clarified. This study is intended to develop strategies of Gyeongsangnam-do manufacturing SMEs for K Champ such as German 'Hidden Champion'. We identified the importance of the level of core competencies and the coherent alternative policy direction and practical alternative were proposed. These mean the concrete relationship of core competencies for the K Champ transition and suggest a realistic directional needed for the local manufacturing SMEs in the proposed 'Government's Development Policy for Korean Hidden Champion'.

최저임금 인상 관련 논의가 고용인원 수와 같이 양적 측면에 국한되면서 부정적 효과가 주로 부각되어 왔지만, 최저임금 인상은 기업 또는 산업 특성에 따라 생산성 제고, 저생산성 한계기업 퇴출 등 질적 측면에서 긍정적 효과를 가져올 수도 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 관점에서 최저임금 인상이 기업의 생산성에 미친 영향을 실증적으로 분석하였다. 실증분석을 위해 제조업 부문의 사업체 단위 패널데이터를 이용하여 제조업 내 업종별·고용규모별 최저임금 영향률을 추정하고 이를 기업의 생산성과 연계함으로써 최저임금 변화가 생산성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 특히 생산함수 추정에서 기존 연구의 문제점인 요소투입의 내생성을 보정함으로써 자본계수 과소추정 및 노동계수 과대추정의 문제를 보완하였다. 분석 결과, 최저임금 인상이 임금, 고용, 생산성에 미치는 영향은 업종별·고용규모별로 다르게 나타났다. 특히, 최저임금 인상은 제조업 전반의 생산성 제고에 긍정적인 것으로 추정되었지만 생산성 변화의 방향과 폭은 업종별로 상이했다. 최저임금 인상이 고용규모별 생산성에 미친 영향을 보면 전반적으로 고용규모가 작을수록 생산성에 부정적이지만 업종에 따라서는 긍정적인 효과가 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 최저임금 인상으로 유발된 임금 상승은 제조업 내 모든 업종에 걸쳐 생산성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 정책적 시사점은 다음과 같다. 최저임금 인상으로 상당수 업종에서 생산성이 개선되는 것으로 추정된 만큼, 이를 최저 임금 상승이 초래하는 노동비용 증가 및 고용 감소 효과와 함께 종합적으로 평가하는 게 바람직하다. 아울러 동일한 최저임금 적용에도 불구하고 최저임금영향률의 차이로 인해 최저임금이 고용, 임금, 생산성에 미치는 영향은 업종·규모에 따라 상이할 수 있음에 유념할 필요가 있다.

본 연구는 한중일과 OECD 가입국을 포함한 총 18개국의 제조업을 11개 부문으로 구분하여 각 국의 산업별 기술적 효율성을 추정하고 비교 분석하였다. 생산성의 전통적인 관점은 기술혁신이나 공정혁신 등을 통해 생산능력을 높이는 것이지만 생산과정의 기술적 효율성에 의해서 가장 큰 영향을 받게 되는데 이러한 생산의 기술적 효율성을 추정하는 대표적인 방법이 확률적 프런티어 생산모형(Stochastic Frontier Production Model: SFM)을 이용한 분석 방법이다. 먼저 산출변수를 총산출 또는 부가가치로 각각 설정하여 확률적 프런티어 생산함수를 추정한 결과, 둘 다 노동, 자본, 중간재 투입의 경우 모든 제조업 부문에서 투입량이 늘어날수록 산출량이 유의하게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 연구개발 투자는 화학, 전자, 기계 산업 등에서 산출량에 미치는 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이어서 생산함수를 통해 기술적 효율성을 추정한 결과를 보면, 산출변수를 총산출로 설정한 경우 부문별 전체 평균이 0.8이상의 값을 보이면서 대부분 높은 수준의 효율성을 나타내었다. 하지만 부가가치로 설정한 경우에는 일본이 대부분의 제조업 부문에서 가장 높은 수준을 나타내었으며, 다른 국가들은 총산출 기준의 효율성보다 낮은 수준으로 나타났다. 한중일 3개국을 비교해보면, 대부분의 제조업 부문에서 일본이 가장 높은 효율성을 나타내었으며 우리나라는 일본의 절반이나 3분의 1 수준, 중국은 우리나라 보다 낮은 수준으로 나타났다. 하지만 식품과 전자 부문에서는 중국이 우리나라보다 높게 나타나 이들 부문에서는 중국의 생산 효율성이 크게 향상되었음을 알 수 있다. 이처럼 우리나라는 중국의 빠른 성장에 비해 상대적으로 일본과의 격차를 좁히지 못하고 있으므로 산업별로 기술개발을 촉진하는 다양한 정책적 지원이 요구된다. 이와 함께 제조업 생산성 향상을 위해서는 기술개발뿐만 아니라 기술적 효율성을 제고할 수 있는 경제구조로의 전환도 필요하다고 할 수 있다.

This study investigates the effect of infrastructure, economic sectors and its status, foreign direct investment and private investment, as well as the role of political stability in enhancing the tourism demand in the ASEAN region. The research collected the secondary data from the World Bank database and the UNWTO website of 10 ASEAN countries over 17 years from 2000 to 2016. Applying the generalized method of moments, this research found that, "private investment", "economic sectors", "exchange rate and infrastructure measured by "using of the internet" can increase the tourism demand of a country in the ASEAN region. This research provided evidence indicating that the "foreign direct investment" and "inflation" are two detrimental factors for tourist attraction. The major finding confirmed the positive role of "political stability" in increasing tourist arrivals. First, attracting tourists to a country always poses many challenges to its government. It has been observed in the past decades that though there were many documents, which confirmed that industry can help in promoting tourism, very few studies investigated the role of both agriculture and manufacturing sectors in tourism promotion. Secondly, there are only a few studies which verifies the stability of the political system to the tourism demand in the ASEAN region and that this variable (political stability) has the strongest impact.

Recently, with the advent of knowledge-based economy and techno-economic paradigm social demands for technology valuation have increased. In nature, however, technology valuation is an intractable task since technology is characterized by intangible and tacit factors and is traded in a suppliers market. Consequently, it is quite common that each individual or organization has ie own valuation method or criterion. The main objective of this research is to propose a new technology valuation method which is easy to understand and apply. In addition, the method is designed to generate monetary value, rather than score or rank, of technology. To this end. we have proposed the overall framework and detailed procedure of a new valuation method. In doing that, we have emphasized the following factors. First, the new method. vis-a-vis existing methods, is applicable to high-tech areas, rather than traditional manufacturing sectors. Second. the proposed method analyzes the structural relationship between market value(value of market) and technology value(value of technology) and integrates them into valuation process. Third, the new method takes idiosyncratic characteristics of various industrial(technical) sectors into account.

본 연구는 최근 노동시장의 특정인 임시 일용직 증가의 원인을 분석하였다. 임시 일용직 증가 원인으로 기업의 수익성, 시장 변동성, 근로자의 자질에 대한 불확실성 측면에서 살펴보았다. 결과에 따르면 제조업의 경우 기업의 수익성과 건설업과 도소매업은 상품수요의 변동성과 관련이 깊은 것으로 나타났다. 한편 1990년대 이후 증가한 교육의 양적 팽창이 질적 향상을 수반하지 못한 결과 근로자의 자질에 대한 불확실성을 증가시키면서 기업은 상용직보다 임시 일용직을 선호하게 되었을 가능성도 간접적으로 확인되었다.

The purpose of this paper is to measure the impact of the recent Korea-Japan trade dispute on the Korean economy using supply-driven input-output analysis. In July 2019, Japan announced the decision to tighten the export control of three materials which are indispensable in the manufacturing of semiconductors and electronic display panels. Japan's decision directly affects production in Korea's semiconductor and display sectors and is hence not a demand shock. For this reason, a standard demand-driven input-output analysis is not valid despite the fact that it can still be applied. The impact of Japan's decision on Korea's aggregate and individual sectors' gross output, GDP and employment were computed using both methods.

Earth is facing a serious problem of pollution and scarcity of energy sources. The synthetic fibers used in automobile and Aerospace manufacturing sectors are non-renewable and harmful to environment. International Agency such as FAA and SAE is forcing for green fuel, green materials and structures. Further exploration is much needed to understand its potential in structural applications. In the current study, hemp and Jute fibre based composites were developed and tested for assessing their suitability for possible applications in automobile and aerospace sectors. Composites were undergone tensile test, water absorption test, and fatigue analysis to understand its behavior under various loading conditions. The finite element analysis has been carried out to understand the fatigue behaviour of composites. The results revealed that the usage of hemp and jute fibre reinforced composites can improve mechanical properties and have shown a viable alternative to replace synthetic fibres such as glass fibres for specific applications. Hemp reinforced bio-composites have shown better performance as compared to Jute reinforced bio-composites while water resistance characteristics for hemp is poorer to jute fibres.

This paper analyzes the impact of the recent change in global value chain on the productivity of manufacturing sectors and firms in Chungnam area using ADB MRIO. Forward participation significantly increases sector productivity in Chungnam area and backward participation affects the sector productivity after 2015. In the analysis for firm productivity in Chungnam area, GVC participation does not enhance the productivity of firms in Chungnam area. However, firms in the top 25% of productivity in 2007 improved their productivity with higher GVC participation and the productivity of firms in the top 25% of asset in 2007 was positively affected by forward pariticipation and negatively affected by backward participation. The productivity of firms that were in international market in 2007 was significantly worsened by GVC participation.

Purpose: This research article investigates the intricate relationship between economic growth and employment in the Korean agri-food industry. Research design, data and methodology: Drawing on Okun's law, which proposes a negative correlation between economic growth and unemployment, the study explores the applicability of this law to different sectors. By focusing on the agri-food industry, the study examines the impact of economic growth on both full-time and temporary employment. Results: The findings highlight the industry's role as a buffer, absorbing workers from other sectors, particularly manufacturing. Moreover, the study reveals that temporary employment is more sensitive to economic growth fluctuations compared to full-time employment. Conclusions: The research emphasizes the importance of implementing employment programs that support transitioning workers in the agri-food industry, facilitating knowledge and skill transfer to ensure sustained employment. Furthermore, it recommends government and company support for temporary employment during buffering periods to ensure safe job transitions. This study provides valuable evidence to understand the nuanced relationship between economic growth and employment in the Korean agri-food industry.
