지난 2017년 1월, 트럼프가 미국의 제 45대 대통령으로 취임하였다. 그는 대선기간 중에 '미국 우선주의'(America First)를 적극적으로 표방하였다. 그의 이런 주장이 대외정책에 있어서 '고립주의'(Isolationism)를 표방하는 것으로 비취지고 있다. 북한의 핵위협에 대하여 미국의 '확장억제'(Extended Deterrenc)에 전적으로 의존하고 있는 한국에 있어서 이는 단순한 문제가 아니다. 즉 미국이 고립주의로 회귀하여 한미동맹 공약이행 의지가 약화되는 것으로 인식될 경우 북한의 오판 가능성은 그만큼 높아질 것이기 때문이다. 그동안 한국사회에서는 미국으로부터 안보를 지원받고 정책적 공조를 제공하는 전형적인 '비대칭 동맹'(Asymmetry Alliance)인 한미동맹의 가치를 재평가하려는 다양한 시도가 있었다. 이에 북한의 고도화된 핵도발 위협에 효과적으로 대응하고, 신장된 한국의 국력수준에 부합된 한미동맹의 효용성을 동맹이론에 입각하여 평가해보고 대책을 강구하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 한미동맹을 '자율성-안보 교환 모델'에 기초하여, 위협인식, 정책공조와, 동맹국으로서 가치 측면으로 구체화하여 평가해보고, 향후 한미동맹의 전략적 함의를 도출하였다.

As all aspects of international activity have kept growing in good transaction, transnational investments, joint ventures, and the licensing of intellectual property, it is inevitable for disputes to increase across national frontiers. International disputes can be settled by arbitration and ADR. In the situation presented in the paper, any dispute shall be finalized by arbitration and conciliation in the Gaeseong Industrial Complex. Inter-Korean Commercial Arbitration in the Gaeseong Industrial Complex has become the principal method of resolving disputes in trade, commerce, and investment in accordance with the "Agreement on South-North Commercial Dispute Settlement Procedures," "Agreement on Organization and Operation of Inter-Korean Commercial Arbitration Committee," and the Annexed Agreement on "Organization and Operation of Inter-Korean Commercial Arbitration Committee" (2013). But the follow-up measures of the said agreements have not been fulfilled. Some prerequisite measures of the Inter-Korean commercial arbitration must be satisfied. In order to proceed with arbitration and conciliation in the Gaeseong Industrial Complex, we need to ask the following: Does the status of an arbitrational matter? Should an agreement to arbitrate contain a choice of law clause? Should one provide for one arbitrator or three? How should the arbitrators be selected? What is the relation between party-appointed arbitrators and the presiding arbitrator (neutral arbitrator)? Do arbitrators compromise more than the litigation? Can conciliation be combined with arbitration? To execute the enactment of arbitration regulations, the contents of the Arbitration Rules of the Korean Commercial Arbitration Board (South) and the Korea International Trade Arbitration Committee (North), together with the Korean Arbitration Act and External Arbitration Act of North Korea and the UNCITRAL Model Arbitration Law and UNCITRAL l Arbitration Rules are reflected in the Rules. There are many aspects of the Inter-Korean Commercial Arbitration. It is essential to understand key elements; namely, the arbitration agreement, appointment of arbitrator, arbitral proceeding and arbitral award, and enforcement and setting aside of arbitral award. This research deals with five chapters. Chapter 1 provides the introduction. Chapter 2 deals with trade volume between South and North Korea and the kinds of dispute in Gaeseong. Chapter 3 addresses contents and follow-up measures of the agreement on the "South-North Commercial Dispute Settlement Procedures," "Agreement on Organization and Operation of Inter-Korean Commercial Arbitration Committee," and the Annexed Agreement on "Organization and Operation of Inter-Korean Commercial Arbitration Committee" (2013). Chapter 4 features the problems and tasks of the pertinent agreements. Chapter 5 gives the conclusion. Enabling parties to find an amicable solution to the dispute in the Gaeseong Industrial Complex can lead to a useful and appropriate framework either through direct negotiation or by resorting to conciliation or mediation in accordance with pertinent agreements and follow-up measures contained in the agreements.

In September 2013, President Park Geun-hye announced her controversial "Look North" policy, of which the most salient aspect is the "Eurasia Initiative". This comprises various proposals designed to overcome existing constraints by developing new markets and creating new economic partners in continental areas from which South Korea has been alienated since the end of World War II, and this dovetails nicely with China's One Belt, One Road Initiative. The concepts of the "Silk Road Rail Express (SRX)" and the "East Sea Rim Maritime Community (ESRMC)" have also been discussed. SRX is at present a purely symbolic railroad project intended to encourage individual, cultural, trade and diplomatic exchanges. ESRMC is a model for establishing an ad hoc community to promote regional economic cooperation around the East Sea. President Park's Eurasia Initiative will provide South Korean investment for the Northeast to complement Russian plans, like the "Northern Energy Road" being built by Gazprom, and Chinese plans, like the Chang-Ji-Tu Development Plan for the North Korean port of Rajin. China's trade, as well as its energy and food supplies, pass through the Strait of Malacca and the Indian Ocean, and are thus vulnerable to interdiction by India or the US. China is therefore trying to reduce its exposure geopolitical risk by establishing a network of corridors between the Belt and the Road to provide alternative paths. The "China-Pakistan Economic Corridor" and the "China-Myanmar Economic Corridor" provide such connections, and South Korea hopes that SRX and ESRMC can become part of a "China-South Korea Economic Corridor". This concept could do much to revitalize the underdeveloped northern provinces of China and Russia's Far East, not to mention North Korea. By linking up the Trans-Siberian Railway, the Trans-China Railway, the Trans-Mongolian Railway and the Trans-Korean Railway all these Asian countries will be connected to one another, and ultimately to Europe. An interim connection between China and South Korea using a rail-ferry has also been proposed.

한국은 1940년대 남북분단 이후 국제 무역 및 물류를 위해 해상운송에 의존해 왔으며, 현재는 북한을 경유하는 유라시아 횡단 물류를 위해 새로운 경로의 개발을 준비하고 있다. 이를 위해 극복해야 할 많은 어려움이 존재하지만, 한국은 아시아와 유럽 구간의 기존 해상경로보다 짧은 새로운 육상경로가 앞으로 더욱 빠르고 비용 효과적인 물류서비스를 통해 더 많은 교역을 가져올 것으로 기대하고 있다. 이와 관련하여 본 연구는 한국종단철도가 개발되어 중국 및 시베리아 횡단철도와 연결된 상황에서의 국내물류 변화를 미리 분석해 보고자 한다. 국내 물류시스템의 모델링을 위해 시스템다이내믹스 시뮬레이션 기법을 사용하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 수도권과 가까운 의왕 ICD의 물동량은 증가하는 반면, 부산항의 물동량은 감소할 가능성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 철도를 활용한 유라시아 횡단 물류의 성공을 위해서는 본 연구의 보완과 더불어 국내 물동량 처리 용량의 조정에 관한 후속연구가 필요하다.

Competition in global pork markets has increased as trade barriers have opened as a result of free trade agreements. Japanese prefer both loin and Boston butt, while Chinese prefer pork offal. Frozen pork has increased in terms of imports into China. Japanese consumers consider pork meat origin along with pork price when making purchase decisions. While the Chinese prefer a strong tasting pork product, South Korean consumers show very strong preferences to pork that is higher in fat. Therefore, South Korean consumers have a higher demand for pork belly and Boston butt. Consequently, the supply and demand of pork in Korea is hardly met, which means that importation of high fat parts is inevitable. In Korea there is lower preference toward low fat parts such as loin, picnic shoulder, and ham. During the economic depression in South Korea there have been observable changes in consumer preferences. There remains steep competition among the pork exporting countries in terms of gaining share in the international pork market. If specific consumer preferences would be considered carefully, there is the possibility to increase the amount of pork exported to these countries.

문화인류학 관점에서 단둥은 민족 정체성 혹은 국민 정체성이 상이한 조선족, 한국사람, 북한사람, 북한화교 등 네 집단이 공존함으로써 국경의 의미가 재구성되는 예외적인 공간으로 정의되었다. 또한 경제학 일각에서도 단둥소재 기업들의 대북 무역과 투자활동을 분석함에 있어 기업주의 민족-국민 정체성 조합을 기준으로 한족, 조선족, 북한화교, 기타 기업으로 분류하고 사업 규모와 활동에 있어 차이가 있음을 밝혔다. 하지만 기존 연구는 민족-국민 정체성 조합이 상이한 집단을 구분하고 집단별 활동에 있어 차이만을 주목하여 개별 집단이 어떻게 자신의 이중 정체성을 상황과 현안에 따라 활용하는지 밝히지 못했다. 본 연구는 조선족 대북무역상을 대상으로 타집단과 상이한 자신의 이중 정체성을 선택적으로 활용하는 '정체성 저글링(identity juggling)'의 구체적 양태를 살펴보았다. 설문과 심층 인터뷰를 통해 조선족 무역상이 대북무역에서 우위를 점하기 위해 이중 언어 구사 능력을 활용하고 있음을 확인했다. 또한 비록 한국에 의해 정의되었지만 한민족으로서의 민족 정체성과 중국 공민으로서의 국민 정체성을 한국과 북한을 왕래하는 데 활용하면서 이동성을 높이고 있었다. 이와 더불어 향후 한반도 긴장 완화와 북한의 개혁개방 시 조선족 자신의 역할에 대한 기대에서도 정체성 저글링을 확인할 수 있었다.

In recent years, the communication and the trade between the Republic of Korea(South Korea) and the Communist bloc has been activated. The simultaneous entrance of South Korea and North Korea to the United Nations will accelerate the political dialogue and also the trade which is indirectly carried out through a third country at present will be turned into direct way. Fisheries products are also treated as one of the important trade goods and there is a hopeful prospect that the amount of trade will be steeply increased in the near future. Furthermore, there is a great possibility of development up to the joint utilization of fishing grounds or the joint investment in fisheries projects. Concerning such points, since it is very much important to understand the present status of fisheries in North Korea, the author made a study on this field as requested by the Board of Unification, and report a part of the study here. The prominent character of North Korea's ruling sea area is that the sea is completely separated into two regions-the East Sea Region and the West Sea Region-and no continuity exists between them. The East Sea Region locates in the fringe of the biggest fishing ground of the world-the North Pacific Ocean-and very rich in resources not only warm water fishes but also cold water fishes. Especially alaska pollack, Theragra chalcogramma, is caught abundantly in this region. Contrary to that, fishing activity in the West Sea Region seems to be interrupted in winter. Even though some valuable warm water fishes-yellow corvenia, Pseudosciaena manchurica, and hair tail, Trichiurus lepturus, and so forth-come to this region from spring to summer along the coast line of this region for spawning, and vigorous fishing activity is carried out. But the most of them migrate southward to the neighboring waters of Cheju Island for wintering from autumn to winter, and so the fishing activity in this region seems to be interrupted greatly during winter. The total number of fishing boats in North Korea is estimated at 36 thousand and the rate of mechnization at about 70% compared with 99 thousand and 78% in South Korea. North Korea proclaimed an exclusive economic zone of 200 nautical miles in 1977. Specific character of this zone is setting of military boundary zone, up to 50 miles from the base line in the East Sea Region and also it covers whole region of the economic zone in the West Sea Region. Especially in the East Sea Region she set up a straight base line which can not be permissible by the international law. North Korea's statistics on fisheries product has not been announced officially on account of her unique isolationism, but it can be estimated through several data procured. At the first, the amount of fisheries products in the North Korea is reported as about 1.7 million ${\frac{M}{T}}$ by Fisheries Statistics which issued by the FAO in 1987, but a North Korea's trade organization announced the amount as 3.5 million ${\frac{M}{T}}$ in 1988. The former seems to be underestimated and the latter must be an exaggeration. According to Chikuni, who is a Japanese worker for FAO, prepared the unofficial statistics based on the evidence which he collected through the fineries development plan of the FAO/UNDP, and estimated the mean amount between 1982 and 1984 was 2.4 million ${\frac{M}{T}}$ or so. The Board of Unification estimated on the basis of various factors that the amount was 2.2 million ${\frac{M}{T}}$ or so in 1987 and in 1988. This seems to be the most reasonable. To solve the chronic lack of foreign currency, North Korea makes effort on the development of fisheries, and has even aimed fisheries product at 11 million ${\frac{M}{T}}$ by 1993, but this target looks unrealistic under the present circumstances. Somehow, we can exploit her extreme policy which has gone so far as to establish such an excessive and impractical target. Nevertheless this will be helpful to promote the joint development of the fishery activity between South Korea and North Korea.

South Korean national security strategy should be developed to effectively handle and counter increasing maritime threats and challenges. There are three major maritime threats South Korea faces today; maritime disputes on the EEZ boundary and Dokdo islet issues, North Korean threats, and international maritime security. Maritime disputes in the region are getting intensified and turned into a military confrontation after 2010. Now regional countries confront each other with military and police forces and use economic leverage to coerce the others. They are very eager to create advantageous de facto situations to legitimize their territorial claims. North Korean threat is also increasing in the sea as we witnessed in the Cheonan incident and Yeonpyoung shelling in 2010. North Korea resorts to local provocations and nuclear threats to coerce South Korea in which it may enjoy asymmetric advantages. The NLL area of the west sea would be a main hot spot that North Korea may continue to make a local provocation. Also, South Korean national economy is heavily dependent upon foreign trade and national strategic resources such as oil are all imported. Without an assurance on the safety of sea routes, these economic activities cannot be maintained and expanded. This paper argues that South Korea should make national maritime strategy and enhance the strength of naval forces. As a middle power, its national security strategy needs to consider all the threats and challenges not only from North Korea but also to maritime security. This is not a matter of choice but a mandate for national survival and prosperity. This paper discusses the importance of maritime security, changing characteristics of maritime threats and challenges, regional maritime disputes and its threat to South Korea's security, and South Korea's future security strategy and ways to enhance the role of naval forces. Our national maritime strategy needs to show middle and long term policy directions on how we will protect our maritime interests. Especially, it is important to build proper naval might to carry out all the roles and missions required to the military.
