Currently, major foreign countries such as Europe, the United States, Japan, and China have established policy and technology goals by 2050 to achieve the hydrogen economy. In line with this, Korea is also preparing to leap forward as a leading country in the world's best hydrogen economy by establishing a technology development target by 2050. In this paper, by examining and analyzing domestic and foreign policy and technology trends to date, implications for domestic hydrogen policy and technology trends are discussed, and major issues and future contents are summarized.

The entrepreneurial university concept is a new challenge and opportunity for science and technology universities in Korea. The traditional university functions of education, research, and community service are still highly relevant, but increasingly so are new types of collaboration for research outcomes and funding resources. Strategic university management is needed to handle socioeconomic contribution, involving the creation and maintenance of proactive relationships with firms, national and regional governments, and other regional entities. The emergence of the entrepreneurial university in Korea is similar to the socioeconomic changes observable in the history of university development in America and in many other developed countries. In this paper, we examine the emerging paradigm of entrepreneurial universities in Korea and discuss the interactions among universities, firms, and government strategy and policy by investigating and comparing two universities, POSTECH and KAIST, in their leadership, adaptation to changes in the environment, business strategies, organization, and cooperative network. We conclude with policy points that emphasize the fact that while entrepreneurial universities are an emerging concept, they can expand innovation and creativity in education and research in Korean universities in the mid-to-long term if university administration, policymakers and public administrators, and regional innovation actors take an interest in the need for a new organization and system where university research can contribute socioeconomically.

This paper makes the case that a new policy strategy to enhance a global green recovery is needed urgently. The new strategy requires two essential elements. First, G20 economies should follow the lead of South Korea and China and turn their green stimulus investments into a serious long-term commitment, and to support these investments, they should adopt environmental pricing policies and instigate pricing and regulatory reforms to reduce carbon dependency. Second, the G20 also needs to target and coordinate assistance to developing economies in science, technology and innovation (STI) for clean energy. Such assistance is essential to help developing economies to overcome the skills, technological and capital gap that they face in clean energy technologies over the long term. Reform of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is also necessary to establish a long-term global price signal for carbon, and to increase the coverage of developing economies, the sectors and technologies and the overall financing of clean energy projects. Formulating such a policy strategy should appeal to both the Asian-Pacific and Western economies comprising the G20, and by working together to formulate such a strategy, the G20 could lead the way toward a new era of global economic management and STI cooperation in clean energy.

The purpose of this study is to explore the possibility of using crowdsourcing as a means to expand the participation of citizens in the process of smart urban regeneration New Deal policy. Using mobile devices, they built a crowdsourcing prototype system that enables residents to provide location-based ideas and opinions about the urban regeneration New Deal policy and share and manage the collected data. The system was applied to the actual urban regeneration New Deal project site to draw implications. The main research results are as follows. First, crowdsourcing is a means of strengthening expertise by utilizing collective intelligence dispersed among local residents. Through the online platform developed in this study, various ideas and opinions of the community can be collected. Second, the procedural legitimacy and transparency of the rehabilitation project can be secured by expanding the participation opportunities of the residents. Third, the efficiency of project promotion can be improved through participation of residents using online platform.

As a society of knowledge and information has been developed rapidly, because of changing from web environment to ubiquitous environment, a lot of countries across the world as well as S. Korea have come to search out new technology policy with spatial information system for smart society as ubiquitous spatial information society. So this research focused on the strategy consulting of new technology policy of S. Korea with spatial information system analysed by the application of 'scenario planning' as a foresight method. And as a consequence, the strategy formulation of new technology policy for the future S. Korea is to set up the spatial information technology policy with platform.

Traditional quantitative approaches to comparative social policy research in welfare state have mostly focused on cross-national variations in social policy. More recently, they have attempted to account for disparities in the local provision of social policy. However, heavily relying on traditional theories of welfare state development (e.g., industrialism theory, power resource approach, and state-centric thesis), most of them seem to have explained the local variation from a central or national perspective, thereby completely ignoring the local perspective. Furthermore, their theoretical bases have been exclusively derived from the social context of post-war era. In tackling these issues, this study aims at localizing and updating the theoretical framework of local welfare policy in the post-industrial age. The framework provided in this study calls for a shift in the theoretical perspective towards more local and new approaches (e.g., new social risks, new public management and intergovernmental relations).
