Economic transformations have led to an increase in the role of creative assets and their central role in public life. Changes in creative activity have led to a change in the organization of the work of institutes engaged in the training of specialists, in particular teachers of labor education. Methods and approaches to training determine the development of creative industries, being the basis for models of professional training of future teachers of labor training. The purpose of an article was to develop a modern model of professional training of future teachers of labor training based on the concept of creative economy. The methodology is based on the concepts of holistic craft and creative economy. Based on the integration of pedagogical learning models "Craft as design and problem-solving", "Craft as skill and knowledge building", "Craft as product-making" and "Craft as self-expression" developed and experimentally confirmed the conceptual model of professional training of future teachers of labor training. The proposed model forms a practitioner with professional, technical, digital and creative skills who is able to transfer the experience to students. The training course "Creativity and creative thinking" has been developed. The model provided for the development of a course based on the strategy of developing professional creativity, flexibility, improvisation, openness, student activity, joint practice, student-oriented approach. The practical value implies the adaptation of the developed model of professional training of future teachers of labor education during the training of teachers in higher education, which is confirmed in the experiment.

This paper analyzes the actual 'content' and 'role' of the intrinsic motivation of creative laborers during the creative production process. Based on semi-structured intensive interviews with 16 light-entertainment television PDs in South Korea, this paper articulated that intrinsic motivation towards creative work could be understood as a desire to maintain their level of enjoyment from creative work. The desire was classified into two different types of 'enjoyment', one was the enjoyment based on the expectation regarding the creative job, and the 'enjoyment' experienced primarily related to the creative production process that allows creative workers to actualize individual creative ambitions. In addition, such intrinsic motivation tended to provide a strong driving force for creative workers as they endured unfavorable working conditions that resulted from market principles(viewership ratings), economic stability, and work-life balance. This paper proposes that the tendency of creative workers to endure various undesirable working conditions is based on a strong intrinsic motivation to maintain their level of enjoyment from their creative career.

Creative industries and creative occupations have been attracting issues in recent years, in both policy and academic fields. Although no literature has yet made all-embracing definitions of creative sectors, it is important to measure creative workers who are contributing to the national economy. Since 2000, many countries including UK, France, Germany, Finland, Hongkong, US, Canada, etc. have tried to develop more refined mapping methodologies for measuring the creative economy. However we are lack of deep scrutiny in the criteria select which sector is creative or not, as well as in existing methodologies for measuring creative employment. This paper presents a creative mapping methodology, called 'Creative Trident' and criteria that can be applied to measuring the scale of creative employment in Korea. Using annual labor data from Statistics Korea and Ministry of Employment and Labor, this research found that creative employment in Korea amounts to 40,922 and 6.65% of total employment. Also the research found that there are many workers who are creatively occupied outside the creative industries, called embedded creative workers which are 248,445 and 33.5% of total creative employment. That means embedded workers take some large portion of all creative workers and are dispersed across all the sectors of the economy. The research demonstrates that creative trident can be useful to estimate the true size of creative employment in Korean and finishes with some academical and practical implications.

This study measures the relationship between labor productivity and national competitiveness. Through the shift- share analysis method, the paper has separated labor productivity into three factors: static shift effect, dynamic shift effect and endogeneous effect. Next, in combination with the Granger causality test, the paper examines the relationship between the factors constituting labor productivity and competitiveness during the period from 2005 to 2017. Research data is collected from General Statistics Office and annual global competitiveness reports. The results show that the interaction between labor productivity with global competitiveness index (GCI) in Vietnam has similar variation. Nevertheless, when separating labor productivity into three effects, this relationship shows more clearly that the impact of labor productivity on GCI scores is mainly caused by endogeneous effect, not by static shift effect or dynamic shift effect. Therefore, in order to improve its competitiveness, Vietnam should focus on a number of solutions: reforming the education system towards developing thinking capacity and creative capacity; fostering industrial manners to create dynamic and flexible workers; building the State with sufficient capacity to implement consistent and transparent policies; formulating policies to attract all economic sectors so that they actively participate in the field of human resource training for the country.

The results of this study are as follows: First, it was found that the wage of the male creative class is higher than the wage of the female creative class. Second, there were different factors affecting wages depending on the gender of the creative class. Third, female workers in the creative class suffer wage discrimination due to differences, but a larger part is due to gender discrimination.

In the 21st century, a time for smaller companies is fast approaching. A lot of people believe that the small and mid-sized companies will be a main force for industry. However, this concept could only be possible after we find some solutions for the general, labor shortage problem. Specifically, the majority of these challenges stem from improper distribution of labor within each company's divisions. These labor shortages have been influenced by a variety of exogenous (human) variables. The sources of the most serious problems come from the lack of appropriate labor and their fair wages. The work environment is also a contributing factor. These items are considered to be serious challenges to the development of smaller enterprises. The purpose of this study is to explore these difficulties. For solving the labor shortage, enterprises and government should offer employees supportive benefits. Enterprise companies should make an effort to improve their work environments. Companies should also use innovative strategies to raise labor compensation. With this in mind, smaller firms should struggle to retain their employees for an extended period of time and commit to an organizational business strategy. Governments should try to develop a higher recognition of smaller enterprises. They should create human power recruitment, development, and recourse policies as needed. Furthermore, they should manipulate existing policies to support human resource development that aids these companies to be more competitive with larger ones. Additionally, it is necessary to develop new, creative programs to help with the social recognition of smaller enterprises.

This paper attempts to review some key concepts related to the creative economy, and examines some issues on the creative economy and regional development from the perspective of economic geography. The main findings are as follows. First, as creative industries, in general, demonstrate the complex structure of value chain in which various industrial sectors are inter-connected, it tends to show that those are place-specific. Second, in policy context, creative industries are required to have four institutional conditions: hard infrastructure(physical infrastructure, skilled labor pool and related industrial sectors), social infrastructure, super-structure and policy governance. Third, as creative industries are affected by related variety than other industrial sectors, there is a strong possibility that those are concentrated in a small number of large metropolitan cities.

In the era of neoliberalism with high rate of youth unemployment, young college students are forced to believe that the only way to enter the job market is by accepting and participating temporary off-campus apprenticeship, which often disguised as an internship for the creative culture and knowledge. This article discusses that the mode of off-campus apprenticeship, which is supposed to voluntary and participatory, bears in fact a strong resemblance with digital labor. Based on a series of in-depth interviews with college students, this study argues that the apprentice-typed labor denotes a process by which immaterial labor or free labor coincides with self-directed job training. Throughout the digital labor processes young college students are in a constant oscillation between precarity and hope, negotiating their autonomy and social conditions in the neoliberal work environment. The digital labor accumulates students' knowledge and information as a form of commodity, which in turn supports communicative capitalism.

In the present context of systemic global crisis, this paper focuses on a sustainable society. Throughout the World there are vast members of the unemployes. A secure job lasting a lifetime has become more and more rare. Nowadays majority of jobs are part-time or temporary. $Andr{\acute{e}}$ Gorz found a solution in a policy of the progessive reduction in labor time. This is the potential which automated production opens up for a culture society. Nevertheless, Gorz's proposal is based on utopion ideals. This paper focuses on a dynamic force for a culture society, especially art, learning and the third sector. Adrienne Goehler underlines that a culture in the broad sense of the word produces economical and social productivity. In this connection Goehler give attention to 'Cultrual Creatives' and the Creative Class. Cultural creatives are comprised of people who have participated in the process of creating a new culture with enlightened creativity. The Creative Class is a class of workers whose job is to create economic growth through innovation. Creativity is important for a sustainable society. Gore and Rifkin both come close to the ecological thinking. Gore claims that ecosystem of nature have a self-organizing capacity. In this context tried to prove this article that ecosystem is closely connected with a creative environment.
