The controversy over the mad cow disease in Korea can be understood as a demonstration of complex and skeptical public sentiments toward the government that were all mixed with expectations, demands, hope and mistrust. The governments decision to resume the import of American beef turned such expectations into mistrust and public hope into nationwide resistance expressed in the form of candlelight vigils. This phenomenon can not be simply explained as a fear of risks. Concerns over mad cow disease were a trigger but they were riot sufficient cause to explain the nationwide controversy involving all the Koreans. It was mad cow disease that triggered a sharp confrontation between the government trying to stick to its decision to resume the import of American beef and the opponents who were not convinced by the government. In fact, this is not simply an issue of a disease. It is rather a complex issue of the acceptance of risks, the consistency of the government policy, trust in the government, and the public consensus on the government policy. In this context, this study analyzes the controversy over the mad cow disease from the perspectives of risk management, public policy-making, and public trust and social consensus-building.

Recently China's science and technology development is accelerating, and some technologies have the world's best technology. With the rapid development of science and technology, China has been deeply aware of the importance of science and technology, and many efforts are being made to legislate security regulations to protect their technologies. Korea and other countries are also interested in research security, and research and development cooperation with China is also on the rise. In this paper, we derived some implications by comparing and analyzing China's science and technology security regulation and Korea's national R&D project management regulations. China is also enacting science and technology security regulations as a subordinate to the laws and regulations of science and technology. However, it should be reflected in future legislation that the difference from Korea is composed of separate independent regulations. In particular, the fact that the science and technology security regulations have been enacted separately may be a hint that can be reflected in the nation's future legislation processes. In this paper, major contents of the science and technology security regulations, points to division of knowledge property into scientific and technological cooperation or security tasks, designation of regulations on the characteristics of research security guidelines, and operation of individual national security agencies In addition, in the event that the contents of the related statutes, confidentiality provisions, and import and import control are recorded in this paper, and the results of the joint R&D project are not utilized, or the technology transfer is not carried out.

Studies on compensation structures of international technology licensing show that the level of intellectual property protection in the host market and the favorableness of the host country's economic environment are positively related to the use of running royalty-based compensation structure. Lump-sum fee or fixed royalty compensation is more likely to be used in the introduction and decline stages of the technology life cycle, and running royalty compensation in the growth stage. The international experience and the size of the licensor company are positively related to the use of running royalty. In this theoretical context, this paper analyzes the compensation structures of technology import in Korea. The paper uses the officially reported data to analyze the compensation structures. It analyzes the characteristics of the compensation structures in terms of fixed royalty and running royalty by licensor country, group of licensor countries and size of licensee companies.

South Korea's available water resources per capita is very small compared to global average as there is a high population on small land. Thus, it is imperative to secure water resources for the safe livelihood of the citizens. As an advanced, industrialized country, South Korean economic dependence on agricultural has greatly lowered. Unless South Korea utilizes foreign water resources, it is impossible to provide agricultural and livestock products the same as current levels. However, virtual water-related research in South Korea is still inadequate. When establishing the water resources plan, it does not consider the international trade of virtual water. This research aims to solve this issue by analyzing the international virtual water trends focusing on South Korea. Consequently, the export and import of virtual water trade was identified according to country and item for 248 countries and South Korea. According to the results, South Korea's agricultural and livestock virtual water has much higher imports than exports, which outputs with agricultural by-products being the main import. In 2018, South Korea imported 72.2 billion ㎥, which is 29 times the exported amount of 2.5 billion ㎥. The research results can be used as baseline data for establishing the national water resources plan in the future.

The document transformation system is more widely used in order to transform business documents efficiently in diverse organization. In established researches on document transformation systems have been carried mainly focused on XML however, it is not only transformed XML form but also EDI or local form in realistic import and export process. Particularly, in the most completed research relate on document transformation, they used ontology to get rid of non-efficiency in the connection of XML schema by manual. Hence, those researches are lack of features, which are construct and modify the domain ontology automatically and the size wasn't enough to realize itself. In this paper we study development of ontology and basic system, which is critical in intelligent document conversion system. And we develop an ontology with editor can be modified and complemented by users, as well as we make it used in real import and export business process.
