  • The fisherman has been playing the roles of forming the fisheries village and surviving the fisheries production. Therefore, we should understand the nature of the fisherman's successor-cultivation which has been performed in order to maintain equlibrium between the fisheries economy and the national economy. Thesedays, fisherman's successor-cultivation mainly has been undertaken by the government in order to facilitate forming the economic foundation of fisherman's successor who has intended to choose "fisheries" as his own occupation in the future. From the above-mentioned, we find the meaning of the undertaking as both securing the foundation of living permanently and having the worth-while life of a professional fisherman by the survival and growth of his own business. And then, choosing the "fisheries" as an occupation, the successor should be satisfied with the requisites of occupation: 1) maintaining one's living, 2) working out one's individuality, 3) fulfilling one's social role-through engaging in the fisheries. Therefore, in order to have these requisites satisfied, I intend to suggest the followings : Firstly to maintain one's living, the environment of fisheies village should be kept in good condition to facilitate the successor's economic performance. Secondly to work out one's individuality, the fisheries' educational system should be adjusted to improve fisherman's ability. 1 hope to institute "the course of regional fisheries management" in fisheries high school and junior vocational collage, and "the school of fisheries management" for the learning of advanced fisheries knowledge. Thirdly to fulfill one's role, the opportunity actively participating in decision-making of the village's affair should be prepared more sufficiently, and the present fishing-centered fisheries system should be reformed into the fish-farming-centered fisheries system. To do this, the long-perspective vision is necessary. These three suggestions are come out from the macro-view point. Meanwhile the fisherman as an individual to improve his business is from the micro-view point. That is, the public aid, financial and legal, should be prepared. The above-mentioned suggestions are necessary to equalize fisherman's social status with other professional's especially from the result of improving the successor's economic force. Therefore, the principle of cultivating the fisherman's successor should be the principle of social equilibrium. be the principle of social equilibrium.

  • As luxury goods market has expanded and has become more affordable, luxury consumption value has become more diversified. The purpose of this study is to classify visible characteristics of luxury consumption by the degree of logo clarity, and to explain this classification in relation to personal luxury consumption values. Also, the study utilized the concept of cultural capital, in addition to the concept of economic capital, in order to aid understanding of current new luxury consumption trend and give directions on brand signal strategies for luxury brands. In order to develop a survey that could measure an individual's cultural capital, focus group interviews, each composed of 5 women in their twenties and thirties, were conducted. Then, the survey was conducted on 230 females residing in Seoul who have purchased at least one product from a luxury brand within a year. The results suggest that luxury consumption can be explained by 'self-oriented value' and 'others-oriented value' as suggested in precedent studies. However, no significant difference was found between economic capital and these two luxury consumption values. However, the more cultural capital one possesses, the more one is likely to pursue 'self-oriented consumption value'. In studying the correlation between luxury consumption values and preference for brand signal clarity, respondents with 'self-oriented consumption value' has shown low preference towards highly visible brand logo when design and quality were equivalent. Also, respondents with 'other-oriented consumption value' has shown high preference towards highly visible brand logo.

  • Indonesia is a mega-biodiversity country having at least one trillion US Dollars value of biological resources per year over the next 20 years. Indonesia is home to 11 percent of the world's flowering plant species and 12 percent of all mammals. Many of Indonesia's species and more than half of the archipelago's endemic plant species are found nowhere else on the Earth. This information is just a small portion of all higher plants and animals being found in Indonesia. Former studies described that total number of species in Indonesia is estimated more than 1,000,000 and most of them remain unknown scientifically. Most of lower plants and animals have not been studied yet, so that greatest portion of Indonesia's biological resources has never been assessed with respect to its economic value or conservation status. Many developed countries are building cooperation with Indonesia on resources, mainly in the fields of grant aid, socio-economic services, R & D, researcher exchange, technology transfer, infrastructure, education/training, finance, etc. Indonesia will obtain greater benefits and management of its biological richness via increasing its international capacity to add value and information to its biological diversity. These goals can be achieved by close international collaboration on search of important biological resources and other bioactive products that have potential economic values. Development of biological resource-based technology stands as the industry of the $21^{st}$ century and, therefore, Indonesia has a unique opportunity to lead the process in the world.

  • 최근 자본주의의 신자유주의적 확대에 따른 문제 극복을 위해 사회적 경제, 협동조합 등이 대안으로 다양하게 논의되고 있다. 이들은 지역에 기초한 공동체 경제를 공통적으로 강조하는데, 대다수 국가들은 자신들의 상황에서 이용 가능한 지역 자원에 기반한 경제 활동을 발전시켜온 경험과 제도를 가지고 있어 다양한 모습을 드러낸다. 최근 한국에서의 대안 경제 논의는 경제 위기 대응책으로 서구의 경험과 제도에 치중하고 있어, 국내의 소지역 경험을 세계 다른 지역의 보편적 원리와 더불어 검토해 볼 필요가 있다. 제주는 공동체 경제 사례로 마을 공동어장을 공유재에 기반한 지속가능한 공동체 경제 이시돌 목장을 생산과 복지를 포괄하는 협동조합형 지역발전 경험을 가지고 있다. 국내의 지역 공동체 경제 사례를 외국의 경험과 더불어 찾아보는 노력은 대안 경제에 대한 구체적 이해를 도모하고 실천적으로 다른 지역에 적용할 때 발생할 수 있는 시행착오를 줄이며 성공 가능성을 높이는 기회를 제공해 줄 것이다.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the level of competition between Public Health Centers (PHCs) and private clinics (PCs) by examining the number of patients that used PHCs vs. PCs, estimating the total amount of revenue generated from outpatient services at both PHCs and PCs, thereby analyzing the financial impacts on PCs derived from the PHCs. We utilized 2011 National Inpatient Sample data (NIS). Using the 20 table containing general information on each individual claims, we integrate it with the 40 table which contains all the diagnostic codes for each claim. Then, we disaggregate the bundled claims into the original individual claims. Overall, 3.1% of outpatient visits are made at PHCs while the rest was made at the PCs (96.9%). Among the total claim costs of 6.34 billion USD (as of 2011), PHCs occupy 2.0% (124 million USD), and 98.0% are contributed to PCs (6.21 billion USD). The estimated economic losses of PCs due to PHCs are summarized as follow; the maximum potential loss is estimated at 198 million USD in total and 7,099 USD per clinic when we include all patient types; the minimum loss is estimated at 71 million USD in total and 2,540 USD per clinic where Medical Aid recipients and the elderly (aged 65 and over) are excluded. Our results confirm the potential economic effect on PCs due to PHCs providing outpatient services. PCs and PHCs are the most important players providing primary care in Korea. Unnecessary competition between PCs and PHCs is not desirable. Health authorities should carefully examine the healthcare services currently provided by PHCs and their impacts on PCs.

  • 최근 글로벌 경제위기 직후 각국은 경기부양책의 일환으로 일제히 복지지출을 늘렸으나 재정위기가 불거지면서 복지지출을 급속히 축소시켰다. 그렇다면 경제위기 이후 복지국가는 어떠한 역사적 변곡점을 통과하고 있는 것일까? 빈곤과 양극화로 복지와 이를 책임지는 국가 역할에 대한 요구는 높아지고 있지만, 국가의 위기 대응은 사실상 금융산업 구제와 감세에 집중되었다. 국가는 시장 조정과 개입 능력에 많은 한계를 보였다. 대규모 구제금융 등으로 인한 재정 압박, 정치적 개인주의의 증대와 계급정치 변화 경향, 그리고 복지제도와 금융부문의 혼합 등과 같은 요소들로 볼 때 향후 복지국가 진로에 대해 낙관적 전망을 하기는 어렵다. 경제위기 이후 신자유주의적 자본축적 전략과 국가전략이 유지되고 있는 가운데 중간층 대상의 현금급여 위주로 복지 축소가 진행되고 있다. 따라서 과거와 같은 계급타협보다는 복지국가가 최소수준 보장을 통해 빈민에 대한 포섭을 강화하는 것이 유력하게 전망 된다. 이러한 최소주의 복지국가로의 진행을 막는 관건은 아래로부터의 연대를 통해 자본을 압박하는 것이지만, 그 전망은 불투명하다.

  • 라오스의 2017년은 정치적 '정체'와 경제적 '변화'가 혼재한 1년이다. 정치 분야는 부패지수(CPI)가 개선되는 등의 성과에도 불구하고 지속적인 개혁 여부의 성과는 지켜봐야 한다. 외교적으로 중국의 영향력은 더욱 증가할 것으로 보이며, 특히 2017년 11월 시진핑(Xi Jinping) 국가 주석이 라오스를 방문한 이후 경제회랑과 란창-메콩회의 협력회의(Lancang-Mekong Cooperation Meeting)의 틀은 더욱 강화될 것으로 전망된다. 다른 접경국인 아세안 국가와는 우호적 관계를 지속해왔지만 캄보디아의 총선에 따른 라오스-캄보디아 국경 문제 이슈는 잠재된 위험 요소이다. 경제 부문은 대형 인프라 건설로 인한 자본 유입과 관광 산업의 호조로 높은 성장률이 유지되었지만, 재정 경상수지의 적자와 같은 구조적 문제는 해결되어야 한다. 한국과 라오스는 2017년 3월 메콩고위관리회의, 9월 한-라오스 외교장관회의를 통해 양국간의 포괄적 협력을 논의하였다. 라오스는 한국의 ODA 원조 8위(무상)를 차지하고 있으며 향후에도 ODA는 양국의 중요한 외교적 협력 채널이 될 것이다. 경제관계에 있어 무역 부문은 감소 추세이지만 투자와 인적교류는 지속적으로 증가하고 있다.

  • Background: The incidence and etiology of facial bone fracture differ widely according to time and geographic setting. Because of this, prevention and management of facial bone fracture requires ongoing research. This study examines the relationship between socioeconomic status and the incidence of facial bone fractures in patients who had been admitted for facial bone fractures. Methods: A retrospective study was performed for all patients admitted for facial bone fracture at the National Medical Center (Seoul, Korea) from 2010 to 2014. We sought correlations amongst age, gender, fracture type, injury mechanism, alcohol consumption, and type of medical insurance. Results: Out of the 303 patients meeting inclusion criteria, 214 (70.6%) patients were enrolled in National Health Insurance (NHI), 46 (15.2%) patients had Medical Aid, and 43 (14.2%) patients were homeless. The main causes of facial bone fractures were accidental trauma (51.4%), physical altercation (23.1%), and traffic accident (14.2%). On Pearson's chi-square test, alcohol consumption was correlated significantly with accidental trauma (p<0.05). And, the ratio of alcohol consumption leading to facial bone fractures differed significantly in the homeless group compared to the NHI group and the Medical Aid group (p<0.05). Conclusion: We found a significant inverse correlation between economic status and the incidence of facial bone fractures caused by alcohol consumption. Our findings indicate that more elaborate guidelines and prevention programs are needed for socioeconomically marginalized populations.

  • 기후변화로 인한 자연재해의 증가에 관한 정부간 협의체를 중심으로 국제적인 기후변화 예측에 대한 연구 및 자연재해 저감에 관한 논의들이 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기후변화에 의해 자연재해가 더욱 심화됨에 따라 재해에 취약하게 노출되어 있는 방글라데시를 사례지역으로 재해의 유형을 파악하고, 우리나라의 재해저감 기술과 방재관련 기법 등을 응용하여 국제원조의 지원 방안을 모색하였다. 방글라데시는 국토의 1/3이 해수면보다 낮기 때문에 배수가 어려우며, 조수 파동과 해수 침투, 사이클론의 위험이 복합적으로 나타나는 지리적인 특성을 지니고 기후변화로 인한 자연재해의 피해가 매년 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 특히 피해가 집중되는 해안지역은 해수면상승의 위협과 3년 주기로 심각한 사이클론의 피해가 일어나며, 상대적으로 빈곤한 사람들이 거주하는 지역으로 인명피해가 크게 일어나는 지역으로써, 재난의 피해를 저감하기 위해 국제적 원조를 필요로 하고 있다. 우리나라의 선진화된 기술과 자연재해저감 기법을 지원함으로써 개도국의 자연재난에 의한 피해를 감소시키는 데 일조를 하는 것은 국제사회에서 협력 구도를 정립하는 데 중요한 역할을 할 것이다.
