Purpose - During a reform period lasting 30 years, the Blue Economic Zone (BEZ) in the Shandong Peninsula has made progress in attracting foreign investment, and has acquired the foreign direct investment (FDI) essential for economic growth. It is therefore important to conduct a proactive and systematic study of FDI in the BEZ. Research design, data, methodology - This dissertation discusses the contribution of FDI on economic growth, from both a theoretical and empirical perspective. Taking seven core cities for study, statistics and econometrics are used, and panel data are used to validate FDI contribution to import and export in the BEZ. Results- FDI was found to exert both positive and negative influences on the imports and exports of the BEZ. In other words, the research findings are consistent with Trade Generated and Inverse Trade Generated theories put forward by Kojima and Mundell, among other researchers mentioned earlier in this paper. Further, FDI has greatly increased imports and exports for the BEZ. Conclusions - According to the results of this empirical study on local investment environment optimization, FDI plays an important role in foreign trade. This dissertation puts forward recommendations on using FDI to better promote economic growth in the BEZ.

본 연구의 목적은 한국의 항만물류산업의 성장회계분석을 통하여 경제성장의 기여요인을 분석하는 것이다. $1990{\sim}2003$년간 항만물류산업은 전 산업 평균에 비하여 총요소생산성과 노동의 기여도는 높고 자본스톡 기여도는 낮다. 외환위기 전후로 항만물류산업의 성장 패턴은 크게 변화하였다. 외환위기 이전, $1990{\sim}1998$년간 항만물류산업의 경제성장률은 14.1%로 전 산업 평균 경제성장률 7.7%보다 크게 높고 그 주된 기여요인도 자본스톡과 총요소생산성으로 나타나지만 이들의 기여도는 전 산업 평균에 미치지 못하였다. 외환위기 이후, $1998{\sim}2003$년간 항만물류산업의 경제성장률은 5.4%로 전 산업 평균(10.1%)에 크게 미치지 못하였고 경제성장에 대한 기여도는 자본스톡 13.1%, 노동 57.0%, 총요소생산성(성장률) 29.9%로 노동에 의존한 성장패턴이 총요소생산성의 성장률 저하와 함께 경제성장률을 격감시키는 결과를 초래하였다.

2014년11월10일 한국과 중국은 FTA체결을 하였다. 세계의 공장 중국으로의 진출이 더욱 더 용이해졌다고 할 수 있다. 그러나 최근 중국 경제 성장이 둔화되면서 우려하는 목소리가 나오기 시작하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 중국 경제 성장 둔화가 한국 경제에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 한다. 이를 위해서 현재 중국의 경제 상황에 대한 추이와 향후 앞으로의 전망을 제시하고, 중국 경제 성장을 둔화시키는 변화 조짐들을 경제 성장률 감소, 가공무역 비중 하락, 그리고 양 국가 간 품목별 경쟁관계 변화를 중심으로 분석하고자 한다. 그리고 중국 경제 성장 둔화로 인해 한국 경제에 미치는 영향에 대해 한국 경제가 대응해야 할 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 분석하기 위해서 한국무역협회 무역통계 시스템을 적극 활용하고, 경쟁력 관계를 분석하기 위해 무역수지기여도지수, 무역특화도지수, 현시비교우위지수 등을 활용하여 분석하고자 한다.

The performance of US economy in the last cecade is considered to be driven by the IT investment. However, the causal relationship has not been conclsive between IT investment and economic performance, which makes a decision in IT investment tricky. IT as a growth strategy is critical to the developing countries which experienced resource constraint. In case IT acts as a driving force in the new technology paradigm, the less investment in IT will continue to which the growth gap between countries. When IT dose not make a significant contribution to growth, heavy investment in IT means misallocations of resources. Therfore a decision on IT investment has critical implication in terms of growth strategy. Based on a growth accounting nethod, the current study is to analyse the contribution of IT

This study aims to analyze the effect of public spending, macroeconomic variables, and BPK opinion on economic growth. This study is motivated by the inequality of fiscal policy effectiveness between regions in Indonesia in influencing the economic growth of different regions, the ability of local governments to attract foreign investors, and the transparency of regional financial management in designing development programs to encourage regional economic growth. The analytical tool in this study is a dynamic panel regression model with data from 2008 to 2017. The results of this study show that, in the short term, the population affects regional economic growth, while in the long term, the economic growth is affected by the number of people, the poor, General Allocation Fund, health budget, foreign investment and BPK opinion. The findings of this study are that in the long term the General Allocation Fund becomes an obstacle to economic growth, this is because the general allocation funds is widely used to cover the lack of funds for routine regional activities, thereby reducing activities for development programs. Another research finding is that fiscal policies carried out by local governments make a small and ineffective contribution to promoting economic growth.

This paper presents the policies Korea adopted to educate and train scientists/researchers and technicians/skilled workers. The Korean policies for the increase of human resources in science and technology that stimulated an upgrading of skills in industry and adapted to technical advancements are identified. An important factor is that the supply and demand mechanism created a virtuous circle so that the science and technology education and training policies were responsive to economic demands. In addition, policies to foster a human resource capacity have enhanced the contribution of human resources in science and technology for innovation and economic growth.

An electricity consumption is closely related to the economic growth structure. The change of economic growth structure affects the pattern of electricity consumption widely and severely. This paper gives that the primary changing factors of electricity growth are economic growth, change of industry structure(the change of electricity consumption ratio in case of residential sector), and the effect of electricity saying. It gives a model to analyze the influence of GDP to the change of electricity consumption patterns by sector through the period of pre and post 1998(IMF, financial crisis) to observe the contribution of each factor to the growth of electricity demand. It is anticipated that this study shows the feasible scheme of economic structure to become the developed country.

This study aims to investigate the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI) and economic growth at the provincial level by using time-series data in Binh Dinh from 1997 to 2019. We applied the quantitative approaches Vector Autoregression (VAR) and Autoregressive Distributed Lags (ARDL) in the model, which includes economic growth, real foreign direct investment capital, ratio of trained workers, and infrastructure. The results show that all these variables are stationary at the first difference. In ARDL analysis, we found that the economic growth positively affects FDI attraction. However, there is no evidence of the effect of FDI on economic growth in the condition of low capital implemented. Moreover, findings also show that the impact of FDI on economic growth is influenced by two factors: infrastructure and human capital. The lack of human capital, which is trained personnel and infrastructure, is the main barrier hindering and inhibiting FDI's contribution to local economic growth. In order to improve the efficiency of FDI on economic growth in the future, it is suggested that the Binh Dinh government should have proper policies in terms of the infrastructure, the human capital investment. They would allow Binh Dinh to enhance the capital absorptive capacity and capital efficiency.

본 연구에서는 우리나라 주요 5개 항만배후단지의 성과를 분석하고 발전방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 성과분석은 단순한 물동량이나 입주기업의 유치수에서 벗어나 항만배후단지 입주기업 활성화, 항만물동량 기여, 국가경제기여 등 3개로 성과를 분류하고 세부적으로 입주기업 물동량 생산성, 총항만물동량 대비 항만배후단지 물동량 비율(컨테이너 화물, 총화물), 항만물동량 성장 기여율, 항만물동량 성장기여도, 물동량 부가가치 발생액, 일자리 창출 등 7개로 세분화하여 분석하였다. 모든 지표에서 있어 꾸준한 성장세를 보이고 있는 곳은 광양항, 울산항으로 나타났으며 광양항의 경우 5개 항만 중 가장 꾸준한 증가세를 보이고 있는 유일한 항만으로 분석되었다. 분석결과를 항만배후단지의 지속적인 성장을 위해 고부가가치 창출 배후단지 및 지역경제 기반한 특성화 배후단지 구축을 제안하였다.

Purpose - Multiple stakeholders-including politicians, investors, and the wider public-have questioned the value of investing in port infrastructure improvements and the contributions they can make to economic performance. Design/methodology - This paper presents an empirical study of 56 countries with seaports from the year 2006 to 2019 to determine how the quality of port infrastructure affects its contribution in terms of trade openness and economic growth. To this end, this study applies hierarchical multiple regression analysis with panel data to empirically examine the economic impact of port infrastructure quality on the relationship between trade openness and economic growth. After the 56 selected countries were categorized as developed or developing, a multi-group panel data analysis was conducted. Findings - The results of this study show that trade openness has a significant positive effect on the national economy. The findings also indicate that, although developing countries should expect greater economic growth after investing in port infrastructure, this relationship weakens as developing countries become richer. Originality/value - The findings of this study not only elucidate the relationship between trade openness and national economic growth, but they also emphasize the importance of trade openness and port infrastructure in national economic growth, particularly among developing countries.
