This study analyzed the practical issues in the Serious Accident Punishment Act (SAPA) for construction sites and proposed measures to improve provisions that are detached from reality. The Act aims to prevent major accidents across various industries, with a particular emphasis on the construction sector. While the Act's intention is commendable, several significant legal flaws have emerged during its implementation. These issues were critically analyzed and strategic recommendations were proposed. Key issues include ambiguous legal definitions, the differential impact of the law on small and large businesses, and the increased administrative and managerial burdens. This study proposed specific measures to enhance the clarity of legal terminology and technology, balance the responsibilities between small and large businesses, and streamline administrative processes. Additionally, methods for effectively revising the regulations and reasonably complying with them on-site were proposed. By addressing these issues, we aim to improve the effectiveness of the law, ensure fair application, and ultimately create a safer working environment in the construction industry. The recommendations are expected to serve as valuable resources for future revisions and improvements to SAPA and contribute to the broader goal of sustainable industrial safety and development.

The maritime industry, responsible for 80% of global freight transport, heavily pollutes the environment through traditional fossil fuels. The International Maritime Organization aims to reduce sulfur and greenhouse gas emissions, but faces technical and financial challenges. Hydrogen fuel cells present a promising alternative with high efficiency and low emissions. This study examines the legal and regulatory frameworks needed for hydrogen bunkering across land, port, and sea. Key legislation includes the High-pressure Gas Safety Control Act, Hydrogen Economy Promotion and Hydrogen Safety Management Act, Harbor Act, Harbor Authority Act, Marine Transportation Act, and Harbor Transport Business Act. The study identifies overlapping regulations and proposes integrated solutions. The findings underscore the necessity of strict safety standards and legislative amendments to recognize hydrogen as a ship fuel. Establishing a comprehensive legal framework is essential for safe and efficient hydrogen bunkering. Continuous updates through international cooperation and standardized regulations are crucial for adopting hydrogen fuel cells, ensuring a sustainable and environmentally friendly maritime industry.

The electronic technology development have occurred in the face of existing legal barriers to legal efficacy of computer information goods, and the liberating promise of electronic transactions cannot fully realized unless there is predictability in the legal rules that govern such transactions. This study analyzes some theoretical fundamentals of the Act. First, it proposes that the Act clarify and set forth uniform legal principles applicable to computer information transactions. Secondly, it suggests that if the individual is risk averse, the acceptance set for electronic transactions will be a convex set, and that the application of the Act will make the acceptance set more expanded by lowering the probability of conflicts and by downsizing the risk averness. Thirdly, it also suggest that through the mothod of contingent commodities analysis, the application of the Act by means of its restricted regulations will give more expected utility than the absence of the Act. Fourthly, it derives some implications that the degree of legitimate restriction will be affected by the objective risk inherent to the electronic transactions, and the individual's subjective risk-averseness. Finally, it concludes that harmonization of restriction and protection of individual's rights in electronic transaction process will be a necessary condition for more efficient body of law from the law-economic perspectives.

The purpose of this paper is to analysis the legal aspects of e-commerce, particularly those relate to electronic contract, in China On 23 November 2005, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a Convention on the Use of Electronic Communications in International Contracts, known popularly as the Electronic Communications Convention. China signed it but the convention is not binding yet as it still requires the ratification by three states. On the other hand, China adopted a new act legalizing the electronic signature in 2004. This new act provides electronic signatures with the same legal status as handwritten signatures. But the efficiencies that business hopes to achieve through electronic commerce are not completely reflected in the legal processes necessary to support those hopes.

The Korean government has recently invigorated the activities of public diplomacy. It is based on the Public Diplomacy Act enacted in 2016. However, there is a widespread concern that it was belatedly enacted and showed necessity to a revision. We believe that this paper contains three contributions which were not sufficiently addressed before. First, we identify the current state of public diplomacy-related legislation in Korea. Second, we argue the necessity to critically review the legal adequacy of Public Diplomacy Act with a consideration of rapidly changing external environment. Lastly, we propose several ways of revision for the future development of public diplomacy in Korea. When revising the Act, it is necessary to make clear a legal connection between the general law and the special law as in the case of the Korea Foundation Act and the Public Diplomacy Act. In this regard, it is worth examining the relationship between the Framework Act on International Development Cooperation and related norms. In addition, the role of the private sector and subnational governments should be expanded. For this purpose, a method and level of cooperation with the private sector should be clearly defined.

우리정부는 AFoCO 협정의 이행을 위한 상설 행정조직으로서 AFoCO 사무국을 국내에 유치하였다. 그럼에도 불구하고 우리 정부는 공식적으로 국제기구를 인정하는 기준을 마련하고 있지 않은 상태이며, 국제기구가 국내에서 법인격을 가지고 활동할 수 있는 국내법적 근거나 정부부처 차원의 국제기구 등록이나 국제기구 공인을 위한 법제도적 장치가 없는 현실이다. 이 글은 AFoCO 사무국의 국제기구로서의 지위를 설명하는데 필요한 국제법 이론과 국제기구의 국내법적 지위와 관련된 미국과 일본 등 선진국의 국제기구관련 국내 법제를 실증적으로 검토하였다. 이를 통해 우리나라의 글로벌화 추세 속에 향후 지속적으로 추진될 국제기구의 국내유치에 따른 국제기구 사무국의 국제법적 지위와 국내법인격의 문제의 해결을 위한 시사점을 찾고자 하였다. AFoCO 사무국은 한국과 아세안 회원국정부가 당사국이 되어 합의를 도출하고 국제법의 규율을 받는 조약으로 성립된 AFoCO 협정을 체결하여 설립되었다는 점, 국제기구는 당해 기구의 설립을 위한 국제법적 문서에 의하여 명시적으로 법인격이 부여되지 않아도 설립목적의 달성을 위해 필요한 범위 내에서 법인격을 보유한다는 묵시적 권한이론 등을 고려할 때 국제기구로서의 지위를 가지며 법인격을 향유한다. 따라서 AFoCO 사무국은 산림분야에 있어서 한국과 아세안 국가들 간의 협력사업 수행을 목표로 하는 행정적 기관으로서 한국과 아세안 회원국들이 당사국인 다자간 지역 국제기구라고 할 수 있다. 하지만 우리 정부가 글로벌 시대에 부응하여 좀 더 많은 국제기구를 적극 유치하고자 한다면 유치하는 국제기구에 대하여 사례별로 또는 국제법 이론에 근거하여 국제기구로서의 지위를 갖도록 할 것이 아니라 외교부 소관의 법률로 가칭 '국제기구 유치지원에 관한 법률'을 제정하여 명시적인 국내법 규정에 근거하여 국내 유치 국제기구에 대한 법적 지위를 부여할 뿐만 아니라 국제기구를 국내에 적극적으로 유지하도록 지원하는 방안을 모색해야 할 것이다.

With the advent of the Free Trade Agreement between Korea and the U.S. and an increase in trade volume between the two countries, the possibility of commercial disputes has escalated among international merchants. It has been well-known that arbitration as an alternative dispute resolution is an efficient way to resolve international commercial disputes. When arbitral awards are enforced in the judicial system, the court will inevitably have to be involved with the enforcement procedures. The court is a typical legal entity to confirm arbitral awards. Through a confirmation process, the winning party obtains the same legal status of final judgment rendered by the court. However, a winning party in arbitration will have to overcome a legal hurdle in the enforcement process of arbitral awards. This article aims to investigate how the courts control the arbitration practices and what the basic legal issues in the enforcement of arbitral awards are. The US Federal Arbitration Act is investigated, while relevant cases are reviewed and updated for legal analysis.
