The purpose of this study aims to analyse the case on the violation of the Agreement on WTO-TRIMs in the China with auto parts case. The Agreement on Trade Related Investment Measures(TRIMs) are rules that apply to the domestic regulations, a country applies to foreign investors, often as part of an industrial policy. The agreement was agreed upon by all members of the WTO. The TRIMs Agreement bans any laws, policies or administrative regulations favouring domestic products. This includes government incentives to encourage corporations to use domestically made products as a way of creating or protecting local jobs. The Agreement on TRIMs is only one such restriction within the broader WTO regime. Policies such as local content requirements and trade balancing rules that have traditionally been used to both promote the interests of domestic industries and combat restrictive business practices are now banned. In many ways the Agreement on WTO-TRIMs is less significant than the WTO agreements on services, etc. The TRIMs Agreement does not involve any new rules or disciplines, referring only to the existing provisions under the GATT. However, by enforcing GATT provisions on 'national treatment', this short and simple agreement has had farreaching effects on auto parts, etc. Meanwhile, China has been members of the WTO late 2001, once the measures imposed high-rate tariff for import parts was intended to regulate importer of auto parts in order to avoid the high-rate tariff.

서비스에 대한 국제무역이 상당히 활발하다. 이것은 세계경제 자체가 옛날의 산업사회에서 고도산업사회로 넘어가고, 외국인 투자가 활발하게 이루어지고 있기 때문에 서비스에 관한 국가간의 거래에 대한 룰을 만들어서 물에 따라서 국제계획이 활발하게 되고 분쟁이 있는 경우에 일방적으로 한 국가가 독점하지 않고, 모든 국가가 의뢰할 수 있는 분쟁해결장치를 만들자는 의도를 가지고 시작된 것이 우루과이라운드 협상이었고, 그 가운데 서비스 협정이 만들어진 것이다.

Trade in service, which deals with intangible product, is distinguished from trade of goods for tangible product. The current multilateral service trade is based on GATS which includes MFN, securing the predictability as well as transparency of related service rules, specific commitment basis market access national treatment. Recently the WTO service disputes are increasing according to the frequent filing complaints against the regulation of service trade in China. The rules of GATS are not as strict as those of GATT. The commitment schedules, which were materialized between members, gets binding effect through the obligatory provisions of GATS. The GATS is inseparable relation with the Appendix of finance, of telecommunication, and of air transport, with the schedules of commitment of member states, and with the reference paper to the 4th protocol. GATS article XIV which is the general exception of GATS has a similar structure of GATT article XX. Based on the possibility of filing to the WTO, there is a need to examine whether the whole rules, regulation, and policy international trade in service of Korea perfectly macthed with the GATS. Korea with poor resources should take up the more positive attitude for the opening of international service market. According to the reciprocal aspects of concession, if Korea doesn't open a service market, the other WTO member country wouldn't allow Korea to access the their market as well as national treatment.

지난 94년 4월 UR각료회의에서 7년반동안 끌어온 최종 의정서와 WTO설립협정이 채택됨에 따라 작년 WTO체제가 출범하게 되었다. 이러한 WTO체제는 특히 제조업위주의 시장개방을 우선시하던 GATT와 달리 농수산물을 비롯한 1차산업과 서비스부문의 시장개방확대에 목적을 두고 있다. 즉 유통시장이 대외적으로 완전개방되는 것이다.

지난 2001년 8월 보스턴에서 열린 IFLA 이사회에서는 최근 일련의 국제무역 부문의 각종 협상에서 도서관과 정보서비스에 대한 문제들이 제기되고 있는 것에 주목하고 이에 대해 IFLA 회원국들이 관심을 가져줄 것을 촉구하면서, '세계무역기구(WTO)에 대한 IFLA의 입장'(이하 '입장')이라는 문건을 최종 승인하였다. 현재 세계무역기구가 도서관과 밀접한 관련이 있는 서비스일반협정과 무역관련 지적재산권 협정 등에서 도서관 활동에 중대한 영향을 미칠 수 있는 논의들을 전개하고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 IFLA는 도서관과 정보서비스의 역할과 중요성을 강조하고 재인식시키면서 지적재산권 및 다문화와 관련된 정책에 영향을 미치기 위해 국제적인 무역 협상과 조약체결 과정에 참여하여 도서관과 정보서비스와 같은 비영리 부문이 계속 발전할 수 있도록 하도록 확실한 결정을 이끌어 내고자 하고 있다. 이번에 채택된 '입장'은 지난해 11월 초 카타르 도하회의에서 열리는 세계무역기구 각료회의에 전달되었다. 이러한 내용을 IFLA에서 우리 협회에도 전달해 왔기에, 우선 '입장'을 번역하여 우리나라 도서관계에 널리 알리고 세계적인 움직임에 대한 적절한 대응책을 마련하기 위해 노력하고자 한다.

This paper examines the extent of China's market liberalization in the construction market seen through the point of view of WTO agreements and Korea-China FTA. Since the environment set by these agreements form the institutional background that Korean firms must work with to successfully access the market, the Korean government must work to reduce Chinese barriers as much as possible through international negotiations on these agreements. The paper sets out three goals for negotiations and the appropriate agreements and fora the government can use to advance these goals.

Lowering threshold value of construction services is extremely sensitive issue to the small and medium enterprises in construction industry.

Nevertheless, it is absent that the analysis on the effect of opening the market lowering threshold value of construction services under Government Procurement Agreements or Free Trade Agreement. This research is to analyze the effects of lowering threshold value of construction service which have been agenda repeatedly in the international agreements such as WTO and FTA. The current threshold value of construction services of Korea under WTO GPA are 5million SDR where the government delivers and 15million SDR where the local government or the public institution deliver. However major parties to an entente such as USA and EU have been demanding to lower threshold value of 15 million SDR where the local government or the public institution deliver to 5million SDR. The analysis figure the effect of this lowering threshold value to be a market reduction by 2trillion Won as '07 fiscal year basis.

WTO/TRIPS 협정 체결과 WIPO의 저작권 조약이 선진국의 주도로 성립된 뒤로 지적재산권 분야의 변화와 대응은 각국의 주요 이슈로 부각 되었다. 새로운 지적재산 체제는 경제는 물론 교육, 문화, 사회 전반에 걸핀 서비스영역까지 영향을 미치고 있다. 본 연구에서는 새로운 지식재산 시대에서 한국과 경제적, 문화적, 지정학적으로 비슷한 위치에 있는 대만의 과학기술 정책과 연구 개발 활동, 그리고 지적재산권에 대한 현황에 대해 살펴봄으로써 대만의 지적재산 관련 정책대응과 활동에 대해 알아본다.
