  • Purpose - A business ecosystem refers to mutually dependent systems interconnected by a loose foundation of various ecosystem members such as customers, suppliers, partners, and other stakeholders. The ecosystem-based strategy attempts to achieve competitive advantage for firms by enriching a business ecosystem or building a sustainable business ecosystem through the collaboration and co-evolution of its members. A sustainable business ecosystem is a source of competitiveness for firms anda manageable resource for gaining a competitive advantage. Customers represent the core membership of the business ecosystem and play a pivotal role in building a sustainable business ecosystem. This study examines the effects of customer participation on economic and social value in the business ecosystem and suggests a course of action for building a sustainable business ecosystem. Research design, data, and methodology - Two business cases of South Korea are selected from two different business types: business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-customer (B2C) firms. Business ecosystems for B2B and B2C firms reflect contrasting characteristics. Data was collected from in-depth interviews with four representatives of four firms. Results - The study suggested seven propositions for the relationships between customer participation and a sustainable business ecosystem through multiple case studies based on in-depth interviews. The results reveal the following four strategic actions for building sustainable business ecosystems based on the suggested propositions: alignment, systemization, socialization, and co-evolution. Alignment refers to achieving a harmonic balance or virtuous circle among the firm's mission, investment, and value creation. Systemization refers to building and implementing management and infrastructure systems rooted in the corporate culture. Socialization of customers in the business ecosystem reinforces the harmony or virtuous cycle. Finally, co-evolution is associated with the relationship between firms and customers as buyer firms in a restricted business ecosystem. Conclusions - This study considers multiple cases for the execution of a sustainable business ecosystem in collaboration with customers and suggests seven propositions and four strategic actions. The results are based on qualitative data from interviews with business associates from two firms in an open business ecosystem and two firms in a restricted business ecosystem, both in South Korea. Our research results regarding two contrasting business ecosystems shed light on business issues and policy making in Asian business environments, which are in the transition stages from a traditional conglomerate-driven to an inclusive growth-driven economy. The business ecosystem itself should be considered a manageable resource for firms' competitive positions in the market. A customer is a member of the business ecosystem and should thus be viewed not only as a purchasing entity and an object of relationship management but also as a co-creator of value. Therefore, firms should collaborate with customers to build sustainable business ecosystems. For this, firms must create social value, which cannot be created by customers alone, within the business ecosystem. Then, customers participate in a business ecosystem and build it to be favorable to them. Implications for academics and practitioners were suggested.

  • 생물비료는 아직도 한국에서는 생소한 용어다. 한국에서 생물비료라 함은 식물추출액, 퇴비류-다양한 형태의 미생물 혼합제 등으로 인식되고 있다. 그러나 최근에는 식물영양요소의 흡수나 이용도를 증진시키는 토양미생물 사용으로 언급하기도 한다. 본 개관은 식물성장을 증진시키는 것으로 알려진 PGPR 서로 다른 기작과 실질적 역할에 대하여 검토하였다.

  • 급속한 경제성장과 산업화는 오픈스페이스의 감소, 환경 훼손, 교통체증, 무분별한 도시성장 등 심각한 도시문제를 야기시키고 있으며, 국토의 효율적인 보전 및 관리가 되지 않아 다양한 사회갈등이 야기되었다. 이로 인해 많은 학자와 정부는 친환경적인 계획을 수립하여 관리함으로써 지속가능한 발전을 실현하고자 노력하고 있다. 이러한 배경 하에 본 연구는 대한민국을 대상으로 미래 토지피복 변화에 따른 생태계의 기능적 변화를 분석하고자 한다. 이를 위해 통계청의 추계 인구수와 로지스틱 회귀분석을 이용한 도시성장확률지도를 작성하여 2010~2060년의 토지피복 변화를 예측하였고, Costanza의 계수를 이용하여 생태계 용역가치를 분석하였다. 분석결과 시나리오 1의 생태계 용역가치는 6,783~7,092백만 USD로 나타났고, 시나리오 2는 시나리오 1에 비하여 2.9~7.6백만 USD가 감소한 6,775~7,089백만 USD로 나타났다. 이 같은 결과는 시나리오 2의 경우 개발관점에서 도시가 성장함에 따라 상대적으로 보전가치가 높은 농업지역과 습지지역의 많은 면적이 훼손되어 생태계 용역가치가 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 지속가능한 개발을 위해서는 친환경적이고 체계적인 도시개발을 통해 환경적 보호가 이루어져야 함을 알 수 있다. 또한, 환경정책수행에 따른 환경적 가치를 정량적으로 분석함으로써 정책입안자 및 도시개발자들에게 판단기준을 제시해줄 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 향후 정확한 도시성장 수요량을 산정하고, 이를 바탕으로 도시성장예측모델링을 수행하여 보다 정밀한 도시성장예측 분석이 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.

인과지도로 본 한국의 성장의 한계: 인구, 경제, 자원, 환경, 식량 위기요인을 중심으로 (Korea's Limit to Growth from Circular Causation Perspective: Focusing on Crisis Factors, Population, Economy, Resources, Environment, and Food)

  • The paper examines dynamic relationship among 'Limit to Growth' factors in Korea using causal loop diagram. It also aims to explore policy implications for Korea in overcoming current difficulties and future crisis we may face. For this purpose, five factors -economy, population, resource, environment, food- used in the were adopted as an analytical framework. Findings show that Korea is fragile to external shock such as world economic crisis, food price surge, and resource price -including energy price- hike. High dependency of energy, food and resource on foreign market was found to be a major source of limit to growth in Korea. Furthermore, environmental problems like global warming could be a major external shock that could hit Korea harder than the rest of the world. Policy implications and measures for these problems were discussed too.

  • 최근 들어 녹색성장에 대한 관심이 전세계적으로 높아지고 있다. 한국의 정책 또한 녹색을 키워드로 삼아 정책의 방향성을 설정하고 있는 상황이다. 본 연구는 한국의 녹색지수를 OECD 회원국과 상호 비교하여, 한국의 녹색현황과 향후 정책방향을 설정하는 것을 목적으로 삼는다. 정량분석 결과, 한국의 녹색지수는 OECD 회원국의 평균에 비해 상당히 낮은 것으로 평가되었으며, 향후 효율적인 녹색정책을 개발하기 위해서는 영국을 벤치마크 삼아야 함을 보여주었다. 방대한 자료를 사용하여 녹색지수를 개발하여 국별 상호비교를 수행했다는 점에서 본 연구의 기여도를 찾을 수 있다.

  • China is becoming a global hot topic because of its rapid economic growth. However, the country show signs of not meeting the expectation of retaining its long-term industrial competitiveness and economic growth, especially with a widening rich-poor gap and natural resource exhaustion. Realizing inclusive growth requires study of an inclusive innovation solution. In this paper, we analyze the feasibility and development path of China's inclusive innovation based on the framework of a National Innovation System, identify examples of inclusive innovation in China, and seek to provide policy suggestions for China's future sustainable development.

  • Red pepper seedlings were inoculated either alone or with a mixture of all five species of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). After 10 weeks of growth in the greenhouse, the seedlings were transplanted into fields and cultivated without chemical fertilizers and pesticides for 10 weeks. The results showed that plant growth was significantly increased under both greenhouse and field conditions, suggesting that AMF inoculation has a positive effect on the growth of Capsicum annuum and improves the physical properties of the soil by increasing the concentration of glomalin. The application of AMF can positively contribute to sustainable agriculture by reducing the use of chemical fertilizers while increasing crop growth.

  • In order to promote the growth of the trees, it is the most important to fertilize efficiently. The organic nutrient "Green-one" which list public notification number 08-organic-3-112" was registered in Rural Development Administration. The "Green-one" is the environment friendly organic nutrient with new concept which is used in planting and maintenance of the trees. The "Green-one" makes the tree grow actively. Also it has a function of the anti germ and sustainable fertilizer effect. In conclusion, "Green-one" promoted the growth of P. thunbergii excellently. Expecially the growth of the root increased. The concentration of "Green-one" dilution was more better 100 times than 300 times in trees grow. This research can apply with the test of fertilizer efficiency in landscape trees.

  • 세계는 지속가능개발에 대한 관심을 가져왔고, 지속가능의 3가지 가치(환경보전성, 경제성장성, 사회발전성)를 중요시 여겼다. Rio+20 회담은 "녹색경제"에 대해 주목하고 지속가능개발을 위한 방안을 모색하려 했지만, 결론적으로 Rio+20에서 제시한 "The Future We Want"에 대한 답을 찾지 못하여 많은 아쉬움을 가지고 있다. 또한 지속가능개발의 3가지 가치만으로는 지속적인 발전에 한계가 있다고 판단되고, "The Future We Want"에 대한 해답과 지속가능개발의 발전을 위한 방안으로써 5가지 가치 즉, 녹색별(환경보전성, 경제성장성, 사회발전성, 과학기술성, 자율자발성)을 제안한다. 그리고 4대강사업의 결과를 녹색별로 검증함으로써 녹색별 모델을 지속가능발전을 위한 새로운 패러다임으로 제시하고, 대한민국의 안녕강국을 기대한다.
