There is an implicit assumption in most regional innovation policy studies that once a policy has been made the policy will be implemented. This assumption is not valid for regional innovation policies formulated in many countries. This assumption rests upon certain political and organization conditions. It is frequently said that regional innovation system in Korea is one of the successful cases because of properly established institution for the implementation of innovation policies. The components of institution for innovation are defined in this article. For the analysis of institution for regional innovation system in Korea, three aspects such as organization, policies & programs, and governance structure were taken into account. Institution for regional innovation system in Korea is analyzed with three aspects: (1) organization for policy implementation, (2) innovation policy, and (3) governance structure. Firstly, organizations for innovation in Korea are composed of three categories such as organizations for policy formulation, organizations for policy implementation and agencies for coordination. Secondly, there are two categories of policies for innovation: (1) policies for the enhancement of national competitiveness and policies for the regional innovation capacity building, and (2) policies for fostering manpower and policy for regulatory reform. Thirdly, innovation governance in Korea is composed of three layer structure: (1) top level governance which is composed of two committee, three ministries and two agencies, (2) local level governance such as one innovation related offices and one center for regulatory reform, and (3) one category of agency for coordination as a regional platform.

급속한 경제성장의 시기에는 요소투입에 의한 성장정책과 성장의 지역적 분배에 기초한 지역개발정책이 가능하였다. 그러나 국가간 경쟁이 심화되고 불확실성의 증대로 성장의 원동력이 크게 약화된 시기에 이러한 모델은 이론적, 실용적 권위를 잃고 있다. 세계화된 경쟁적 환경과 불확실한 세계경제 변화에 신속하고 효율적으로 대처할 수 있는 내생적인 지역혁신역량 구축이 성장과 지역개발정책의 새로운 대안으로 등장하였다. 중앙집권적인 성장정책과 지역개발정책으로 수도권의 과밀화와 지방의 과소화 문제를 겪었던 프랑스는 지방의 내생적인 혁신역량 구축을 위해 지난 1970년대부터 단계적인 지역혁신체계 구축 정책을 실행해 오고 있다. 지방의 내생적인 혁신역량 구축을 위해 계획적인 지식창출과 지역개발을 동시에 추구해온 프랑스의 지역혁신체계의 구축 수단과 방식은 지역의 내생적인 혁신역량 강화와 지역간 불균형 문제를 해소하려는 정부의 정책에 많은 시사점을 제공한다.

The regional development strategy of China is involved basically with national macro economical development policies. In general, the development process were The procedures of 'balancing development-unbalancing development- rebalancing development'. The first restructuring is a balancing development strategy represented as the three-district construction and the second restructuring is the unbalancing development strategy represented as the preferential development of the east area after reformation & development. The third regional development strategy making current progress is a new regional balancing development policy including the great development of the west district. The study grasped how much the regional balancing development policy contributed to bridge the gap among other areas with coefficient of variation to analyze changes of regional development related indexes among the areas before/after the regional balancing development policy which had been progressed after 1991 with harmonious development among areas as its goal was carried out. It was also analyzed that the Chinese government's goal of regional development policy was how well-suited to the Chinese reality through regression analysis, so far. However, the results obtained of the study were summarized in Table6, Table7 and Table8.

Reviewing the meaning aid task of balance of regional development, this papa examines the causes of the underdevelopment of rural areas in relation to the urbanization process, probes the concept, principle and necessity of rural community development, and suggests the policy tasks for rural community development in the perspective of regionally balanced development. Since 1960's, Korea has pursued a growth-oriented economic policy. The focus on the aggregated growth, however, has resulted bo invite some regional disparity problems. In the process of development, regional disparity problems were quite a large rural areas compared with urban areas relatively. The under-development of rural areas is deeply correlated with the overcrowding (or overconcentration) phenomena of urban(or metropolitan) areas. The urban-biased policy is the primary cause of the deepening regional imbalance structure between urban and rural areas. The inter-regions equitable and well-balanced development is one of the national policy issues by which the government is confronted, since the issue is closely related with national quality of life. Main three policy tasks for rural community development were 'the new paradigm of development policy' , 'local-oriented policy' and 'human-oriented policy'.

본 광역권별 경제력 비교분석은 정부의 지역경제정책에 대한 기초연구로서 콜드스타트(cold start)된 5+2광역경제권의 상이한 경제여건과 펀더멘털을 고찰하고 설정된 비교지표를 중심으로 전국 7대 광역권의 지역경제력을 비교 분석해 봄으로써 글로벌 경쟁력 확보 차원에서 자립적 광역경제권을 육성한다는 정부의 지역경제정책의 타당성과 향후 광역경제권의 정책방향을 고찰하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 경제력지수 비교결과, 수도권의 경제력지수가 절대 우위에 있는 반면 강원권, 호남권, 제주권은 상대적 열위상태인 것으로 조사되었다. 지역의 특성과 경제적 펀더멘털이 다르기 때문에 향후 지역발전 및 광역경제권 정책을 추진함에 있어서는 이를 고려한 세심한 배려와 발전계획 수립이 필요할 것으로 보인다. 그리고 정부는 지역경제여건을 감안한 광역경제권사업의 지역안배와 조정을 통하여 지역사업의 중복성 문제를 원천 차단함으로써 재정의 효율성을 제고시켜야 할 것이다. 또한 수요분석에 기초한 demand-based policy와 demand-pull policy, 지역낙후성을 감안하여 예산균등할(豫算均等割)정책보다는 비균등할 지원책을 탄력적으로 사용함으로써 지역균형발전을 도모하여야 할 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구는 1990년대 이후에 나타난 중앙정부 지역정책의 패러다임 변화를 논의하였다. 특히, 지역정책의 발상지인 영국에서 1928년부터 2000년대까지 전개되어온 중앙정부의 지역정책 변화를 살펴보되 최근 10년간의 동향에 초점을 맞추었다. 최근 10년간의 주요 변화는 지역격차 완화를 위해 규제와 지원을 통해 산업과 인구의 공간분포를 변형시키고자 하는 중앙정부의 개입주의적인 하향식 지역정책이 지역경쟁력 강화와 그것을 위한 지역발전의 분권화를 추진하는 지역정책으로 전환하고 있다는 것이다. 그리고 그러한 전환 속에서도 영국 중앙정부는 지역격차 완화를 계속 추구해오고 있다. 또한 본고는 영국 중앙정부의 지역정책 변화가 대내외 환경 변화 속에서 우리나라 중앙정부의 향후 지역정책 방향 설정에 던져주는 시사점을 제시하였다.

Regionalism has become a liability in Korea, hampering national harmony and political stability. The regionalism finds its roots in several centuries back in history. The traditional regionalism was based on the provincial differences in cultural and social characteristics, and behavioral mannerism. Therefore, the traditional regionalism should be regarded as benign and common as in many other countries in the world. The modern version of Korean regionalism seems to be founded on the "discriminatory" treatments of Honam provinces in economic policy and the resultant regional economic disparity during the last three decades. Many believe that such "discriminatory" policy had been enforced during the period of the "third" and "fourth" republics under the influence of the key government officials and presidents form the Southeastern provinces. Since the early 80s, many public investment projects have found its home in the Honam region with the consideration of regional balance and more equitable distribution. This paper attempts to elucidate on various causes of regional disparity amplified during the period of industrialization, and also presents the economic indices which demonstrate the impacts of the policy in narrowing the economic disparity among the regions in recent years. The paper also clarifies the limits of regional economic policy in achieving regional. balance and consequently social integrity. The last part of the paper attempts to clarify the effective domain of regional policy and the new direction of regionalism.cy and the new direction of regionalism.

Many actors are involved in the development of regional innovation systems (RIS) such as universities, private firms, research institutions, governments, and public agencies. In a country like Korea, where the central government takes more than 95% of the total government R&D budget, the role of regional authorities in science, technology, and innovation are fairly limited, although in recent years some regional governments have tried to promote innovation activity in their localities. This paper looks into the Gyeonggi Institute of Science and Technology Promotion (GSTEP) in Gyeonggi Province and examines its emerging role and achievements in innovation policymaking. It was found out that GSTEP engages in knowledge brokering with the purpose of helping firms participate in regional technological innovation processes. The knowledge brokering roles of this regional authority are described along with their implications for regional innovation policy. This study aims for a deeper understanding of the nature of the regional authority's role in a RIS through the case study of regional actors transitioning from being subordinators to becoming active participants with greater participation on policymaking and implementation.

유럽연합의 지역정책은 지리적 확대과정에서 발생되는 저소득 회원국과 지역의 경제적 손실을 보상하고 신규회원국의 가입을 회유하려는 목적으로 사용되어 왔다. 그 결과 지역정책의 목표와 지원대상지역은 확대되고 기금지원은 광범위하게 분산되었다. 최근 유럽연합은 저소득의 중 동부유럽국가의 대규모 가입에 따라 지역정책의 효율성을 높이고 재정적 문제를 해결하기 위해 지역정책을 변경하였다. 우선 광범위하게 분산된 지역정책의 목표를 크게 통합하고, 지역구분에 의한 지원을 단계적으로 폐지하고, 지원대상지역을 순차적으로 축소시키는 정책을 도입하였다. 또한 확대된 지리적 영역에서 지역간 협력을 촉진하여 지역간 결속을 강화하는 정책을 추진하고 있다. 유럽연합의 지역간 발전격차는 회원국간 격차는 수렴되는 현상을 보이고 있으나 거시 지역간 격차는 극화현상을 보이고 회원국 국내 지역격차는 심화되는 경향을 나타내고 있다. 이것은 유럽연합의 지역정책이 회원국간 경제격차의 완화에는 어느 정도 기여를 했다고 볼 수 있다. 그러나 거시지역과 국내 지역에는 격차해소를 위한 지역정책에도 불구하고 발전격차를 증가시킬 수밖에 없는 입지측면의 지역간 차별성으로 인해 경제격차가 심화되고 있다.

With increasing globalization, a proper policy for global inter-city networking strongly required, which presumes the study on the heterogeneity among regional innovation systems. While surveying the research results of the Evolutionary Economics, 1 stress that regional systems of innovation differ in technological capacities, industrial structures, institutional arrangements and socio-cultural features. 1 make the empirical investigation based on the data of Busan and Hamburg, making clear the regional specificities among regional innovation systems. The results show that regional systems of innovation in Busan and Hamburg are quitely asymmetric. They suggest also the limitation of neo-classical assumption on the ‘homogeneous production function’ and that policy-makers in regions should make the policy for ‘global inter-cities networking’, based on perspectives of regional heterogeneity.
