  • The purpose of this paper is to shed the light on one of the most important influential factors for the development the Palestinian economy, which is logistics system. The discussion about the Palestinian state and its economy arise after the UN General Assembly voted to grant Palestine a nonmember state. Palestine is considered land-locked country, although it has seashore. Although Palestine has seashore, it is considered land-locked country due to the lack of sovereign logistics infrastructure. International Trade with Israel, Jordan, and Egypt is done through land border crossings. Palestinian international trade to European, Asian, and American countries is currently done through Israeli airports and seaports. Almost 99% of the Palestinian imports are through land. Israeli policies and procedures incur Palestinian exports additional transportation costs when delivering their products to Israeli ports and Airport and even when transit these cargos to neighboring countries through Israeli controlled areas. Therefore, without direct access to international markets, the Palestinian economy will not be able to compete in international markets, and will continue its dependence on the Israeli economy. Considering that the current situation will continue, alternative routes for international trade to avoid using the Israeli ports are Aqaba Port in Jordan and Port Said in Egypt. In the long term, having a seaport and Airport in Gaza, Airport in the West Bank, and constructing the Corridor connecting Gaza and the West Bank, is the only solution capable for independently integrating the Palestinian economy with the region and other countries in the world, and therefore creating competitive advantage for the Palestinian exports.

  • Design piracy is the unauthorized copying of another designer or manufacturer's work. While controversial, it is an institutionalized practice in the apparel industry. The purpose of this study was to better understand student perceptions of design piracy, particularly as it is one they will encounter in their future careers. The authors interviewed twenty-four apparel design students at a land-grant Midwestern University. Data was analyzed using theme analysis. Three themes developed including: 1) Expressions of cognitive dissonance in statements expressing enjoyment of the practice of design piracy as a consumer; yet disappointment when (and if) their own design work was copied. 2) Concerns regarding the definition of originality and the logistics of enforcing a plan against design piracy. 3) Differences of opinion regarding the prevalence of the practice, particularly if the students had industry experience or not. Advice for professors from students regarding piracy is included.

  • Debt and credit problems in Korea have been escalated during the past decade. The number of people with debt and credit problems is in its historic high. In May 2008, about 2.48 million debtors are officially classified as bad debtors and 7.20 million people have low credit scores. People with low credit scores are in disadvantageous situation in the financial market thus their financial transactions and activities are limited. In 2004, Korean government introduced various credit rehabilitation programs. However, most of these problems are remedial in nature and preventive programs such as credit counseling and debtor education are lacking. The purpose of this review is to examine US credit counseling and debtor education programs to obtain insights for preventive credit program developments in Korea. The review focused on programs offered through National Foundation for Credit Counseling, Jump Start, and Cooperative Extension Services from two large land grant Universities. From the program review suggestions and recommendations for educational contents, program and educator developments, and program quality control were discussed.

  • 에티오피아의 농촌지도사업은 다른 아프리카 국가들과 비교하여 긴 역사를 가지고 있으며 다양한 접근방법과 모델을 통하여 이루어져 왔다. 오랜 역사에도 불구하고, 농촌지도사업 시슨템은 사업영역, 커뮤니케이션, 제도적인 다원성 측면에서 초보단계에 머물고 있다. 농촌지도사업의 초점은 시험연구사업 결과에 대한 기술이전, 국가식량안보와 수출증가를 위한 농업생산성 증대에 있다. 최근 농촌지도사업 시스템에 대하여 많은 논의가 이루어지고 있으며, 다른 관점을 통하여 보다 지도사업 시스템이 엄밀성을 더해 가고 있다. 최근 에티오피아 농촌지도사업은 공공부문에 의하여 추진되고 있으며, 특히 district 단위에서 분권화된 방법으로 운영되고 있다. 그리고 제한된 수준이지만 NGO에 의하여 수행되고 있다. 에티오피아의 농촌지도사업은 1950년대에 연구개발 및 기술이전, 외국의 새로운 기술도입을 위하여 시작되었다. 초기에 농촌지도사업은 시험장 위주로 이루어졌다. 이후에 에티오피아 농촌지도사업은 다섯 가지 단계로 추진되었다. 대학학장시스템(the land grant extension system), 패키지 프로그램, 최소 팩키지 프로젝트, 농민 농업개발 프로그램, 참여민주주의와 훈련시스템(PADETS). 패키지 지도사업 프로그램은 시범지역에 최초로 수행되었으며, 15-20년내에 농촌지역의 90%까지 확대되었다. 이 프로그램은 개발기구에 의하여 관리되는 시범포를 사용하였으며, 조직화된 농민들을 훈련하였다. 그러나, 이 프로그램이 특정한 조그마한 지역에서 운영되어 다른 지역까지 확대되지 못하였다. 참여민주주의와 훈련시스템을 통하여 에티오피아의 농촌지도사업은 주목을 받게 되었으며 많은 논의가 있었으며, 외부의 관점들이 더 정교하게 만들었다. 긴 역사에도 불구하고, 이 시스템은 커뮤니케이션, 제도적인 다원주의적인 측면, 분권화 측면에서 걸음마 단계이다.

  • This study attempted to investigate the changes in the perception of local government officials about agricultural infrastructure improvement projects due to the financial policy changes. A total of 141 local government officials were surveyed on the priority, the current status of the agricultural infrastructure improvement projects. Irrigation facilities renovation project and Small drainage improvement project had generally high priority, while Support project of cultivation basis for upland crops in paddy, Large scale land readjustment project, and Upland infrastructure improvement project had low priorities. After the introduction of the block grant system, agricultural infrastructure improvement projects had often been conducted by collecting opinions from local residents. The officials in charge of local governments recognized that the agricultural infrastructure improvement projects were reduced due to lack of financial resources and project potential sites. In response to the changes in the agricultural infrastructure improvement projects, most of the surveys showed that the influence of cities and provinces was strengthened. In addition, respondents most needed to improve the subsidy rate and there were a large number of cases requiring differential support to meet the characteristics of the local government. Therefore, it will be necessary to present a new perspective on the agricultural infrastructure improvement projects and to suggest differentiated projects for each regions.

  • 본 연구는 장기 미집행 도시공원 해소를 위한 정책구성요인을 평가함으로써 향후 정책수행을 위한 시사점을 제시하는데 그 목적이 있다. 본 연구의 정책요인 평가는 장기 미집행 도시 군계획시설 혹은 도시공원과 관련된 업무를 담당하는 전문가 집단을 대상으로 시행되었으며, 그 절차는 정책요인의 선정, 정책요인 간 가중치 산정, 평가결과의 해석이라는 세단계로 구성되었다. 평가의 결과, 전문가들은 정책요인 중 국고보조금 확보(0.183), 지방재정계획과 단계별 집행계획의 연계(0.165), 장기 미집행 도시공원의 선별적 존치(0.154), 국유지 무상 양여 및 장기 임대(0.110)와 같은 요인을 상대적으로 중요하게 평가하였다. 향후 도시공원 일몰제의 시행에 앞서 장기 미집행 도시공원 해소를 위한 폭넓고 심도 있는 논의가 이루어질 필요성이 제기된다.

  • 「드론법」 제정으로 드론의 법적 근거를 마련함과 항공안전법상의 안전규제를 유예 또는 면제시키는 등 드론산업 육성정책에도 불구하고 드론의 정의가 명확하지 않아서 상업적 활용을 위해서는 여전히 논의가 필요하다. 따라서, 국내외 사례조사와 현행 항공법의 문제점을 분석한 결과, 현행 드론법에서 「조종자가 탑승하지 아니하고, 자체중량이 150 kg 이하인 무인비행기」라고 정의되어 있으나, 실제 조종사가 탑승해야 하고 드론택시의 자체중량이 150 kg 이상인 점 등 여러 문제점이 발견되었다. 따라서 드론택시에 대한 정의로 "드론" 이란 원격·자동·자율 등의 방식에 따라 항행하는 비행체로서 국토교통부령으로 정하는 「항공안전법」 제2조제3호에 따른 무인비행장치(단, 자체중량이 300 kg이하 또는 무게 제한 없음) 또는 「항공안전법」 제2조 제6호에 따른 무인항공기로 정의할 것을 제안하였다.
