Our country's sustainable trade growth fundamentally depends on the supply of excellent labors called global trade expert. He or she is required several knowledge and skills not only trade, marketing, information technology, foreign languages but also global mind. Universities have to supply excellent global trade expert to companies according to needs and wants. The object of this paper is to propose some ideas for training of global trade expert of Korea university under global trade environment. First, global companies prefer labors who have not only some skills about specialty and communication skill but also personality on passion, creativity, leadership and so on. Second, The university's curriculum needs to improved in terms of "convergence" and "specialty". In nature, trade major treats lots of subjects such as trade, business adminstration, economics, international law, international commerce, logistics, marketing, etc to catch up changing global business circumstances and companies' needs. Therefore convergence of adjacent field is very important in study and training. Finally, Universities need to use field-specialist to supplement of trade working experience as instructors and practitioners. The concept of convergence and specialty is not separated but harmonious each other.

본 연구는 다른 국가에 비해 무역개방도가 높은 동아시아 국가의 특징을 고려한 조건부 수렴현상을 패널분석 하였다. 이는 동아시아 국가는 무역개방도가 높은 특징이 나타나고 있기 때문에 경제성장의 수렴현상을 분석하기 위해서는 무역개방도를 추가적으로 통제할 필요가 있기 때문이다. 분석결과 인적자본, 투자율을 통제하였을 때 보다 무역개방도를 추가로 통제하였을 때 수렴현상이 더욱 뚜렷하게 나타났고 수렴속도도 더욱 빨라진 것으로 분석되었다. 추가적으로 동아시아 국가들을 동남아 국가와 동북아 국가로 구분하여 분석하였다. 동북아 국가에서는 절대적 수렴과 조건부수렴 현상이 모두 나타났지만, 동남아 국가에서는 무역개방도를 추가로 통제시킨 조건부 수렴현상만이 나타났다.분석결과를 종합하면 동아시아 국가의 높은 무역개방도를 통제시킨 조건부 수렴에서 수렴현상이 더욱 강하게 나타났다. 본 연구의 분석결과를 바탕으로 시사점을 도출하면 첫째로, 대외무역의존도가 높은 동아시아 국가들의 무역개방도가 경제성장의 수렴에 있어서 상당한 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 둘째, 동아시아 국가의 지역경제통합 성립을 위해서는 동북아시아 국가와 동남아시아 국가의 경제성장 격차를 줄여 나갈 필요성이 있다.

In Korea, the major of international trade and business introduced in the 1960s to supply trade expert to trading companies, and the heyday of the trade major was in the 1980s. However the trade major fell into decay from the middle of 1990s. The purpose of trade education in university is to supply high qualified employees to societies and companies. The problem is that companies have difficuties for recruiting of trade expert, on the other hand university graduates have few job oppertunies. It has some discrepancies between education and field. The object of this paper is to propose a direction of modification of the trade and international business curriculum for global trade expert. We research international trade and business departments' curriculums of GTEP universities. GTEP stands for global trade expert incubating program started from 2006 which have charge of MOCIE and KITA. First, in the title of department, a lot of former researchers have taken up the position to return "Trade" or "International Trade". We think more important fact is not the title of department but the curriculum, so we insist on a harmony between the department title and curriculums. The focus of modification of curriculum is to educate global trade expert, so we need to know about global business environment and companies' needs also. Second, We propose the directions for modification of curriculum are "convergence" and "specialty". Trade major is a mixed study in nature and trade major try to treat lots of subjects such as trade, business adminstration, economics, international law, international commerce, logistics and marketing etc to catch up changing global business circumstanses and companies' needs. So convergence of adjacent field is very important in study and training. Specialty means selection and concentration strategy for global trade expert. It is difficult to learn every knowledge and skills for employer's needs in 4 years and 140 credits. A students who has studied basic subject in trade, management, economics can choose 1 or 2 specailty subject such as trade and e-commerce, global marketing, logistics and transportation, commerce and policy, servive trade, foreign language and cross culture etc. In concusion, the concept of convergence and specialty is not separation but harmony each other, so we propose to promote two concept together for modification of the trade and international business curriculum for training of global trade expert.

본 연구에서는 최근 25년간의 데이터를 이용하여 아시아 각 국가 사이에 빈곤수준이 서로 수렴하는 것인지 혹은 오히려 격차가 더 증가해 왔는지를 분석하였다. 특히 무역은 이러한 수렴 여부에 어떤 영향을 미쳤는지를 분석하기 위해 빈곤자비율(H)과 인간개발지수(HDI)의 두 가지 지수를 이용하여 계량분석을 실시하였다. 분석방법으로는 경제성장 분야에서 흔히 쓰이고 있는 소위 σ-수렴 측정과 β-수렴 측정방법을 이용하였다. 그 결과, 분석기간 동안 H는 평균적으로 감소해 왔으며 HDI는 증가추세를 가진다는 것을 발견하였다. 하지만 이러한 추이는 아시아 국가들 전체의 평균 추이를 나타내는 것에 불과하기 때문에, 본 연구의 관심사인 국가 간 수렴여부를 추가 분석하였다. 그 결과 H는 국가 간에 유의한 정도의 수렴이 나타나지 않는 반면 HDI는 수렴하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 무역은 이 과정에서 역시 H수렴에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미쳤다고 보기 어렵지만 HDI의 경우에는 무역이 수렴속도를 향상시키는 데 일정한 기여를 했다는 것을 발견했다. 결국, 무역은 전반적인 삶의 질 향상을 통해 아시아 국가 간의 격차를 수렴시킨다는 것을 발견하였다.

전세계적으로 서비스산업의 진전이 본격화되는 가운데 글로벌 무역에서 서비스가 차지하는 위상과 비중 역시 점차 높아지고 있다. 안정적이고 공정한 국제무역은 견고한 국제통상규범 위에 실현 가능한바 GATS 출범 이후 정체기에 있던 서비스무역규범에 관한 다자간 논의가 최근 상당한 성과를 보이고 있다. 서비스무역규범의 주요 이슈는 결국 서비스 자유무역에 영향을 미치는 회원국들의 다양한 서비스무역장벽이다. 최근 타결된 WTO의 「서비스 국내규제에 관한 복수국간 협상」은 면허, 자격요건, 기술표준 등 서비스무역과 관련된 개별국 차원의 국내 조치가 무역장벽이 되지 않도록 통일된 규범을 마련했다는데 의의가 있다. 이에 본고는 서비스무역규범의 적용 대상인 서비스무역장벽의 형태와 실태를 검토하고, 이를 완화하기 위한 노력으로써 최근까지의 다자간 서비스무역규범 논의 동향의 고찰을 통해 앞으로 지속적인 논의가 나아가야 할 방향을 제시하고자 하였다.

Purpose - With the improvement of people's living standards, traveling abroad has become a common way for people to release the pressure of life and work. In economics, this kind of way can affect the international trade. Because of this background, this paper sets BRICS countries as an example to explore the impact of cross-border tourism on bilateral trade. Research design, data, and Methodology - The annual time series data sets form 1998 to 2016 are used to perform an empirical analysis under a series of econometric approaches such as the Phillips-Perron test and the Engle-Granger two-step test. In this paper, the cross-border tourism and the bilateral trade will be used to conduct an empirical analysis based on the econometric approaches to analyze the impact of cross-border tourism on bilateral trade. Results - The finding of this paper show that there is a long-run relationship between cross-border tourism and bilateral trade in this sample. Moreover, the cross-border tourism is the Granger causality of bilateral trade. Namely, the cross-border tourism can promote the development of bilateral trade. Conclusions - In short, the evidences that this paper presents show that the cross-border tourism is a driving factor that impacts the bilateral trade in the sample of BRICS countries.

Purpose: South Korea is a close ally of the US and an important partner of China. Caught between the two most powerful countries, South Korea's strategic directions are critical. This article emphasizes that the deeper core of the US-China trade war is to improve the business environment to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) to boost the economy, rather than engaging in the trade war. Research design, data, and methodology: Considering the complexity of this issue, this article applies a systematic analytical tool, the ABCD (Agility, Benchmarking, Convergence, and Dedication) model, to provide strategic guidance for inducing investments into South Korea in the context of the ongoing US-China trade war. Results: Specifically, South Korea needs to provide a more attractive business environment along the four points: expedite commercial activities through deregulation (Agility); adopt global standards of the flexible labor markets and technological developments (Benchmarking); integrate various industries and connect them to global value chains (Convergence); and create more economy-friendly policies rather than politics-oriented ones such as protectionism (Dedication). Conclusion: This study stands out not just by utilizing the ABCD model but, also by providing more systematic analysis and practical implications, particularly within the context of the escalating US-China competition. Unlike many existing studies that analyze the broader impacts of this geopolitical rivalry, this research delves into specific strategic guidelines for South Korea to attract FDI. The findings also provide implications for multinational corporations (MNCs) in choosing the locations for their overseas operations, particularly in South Korea.

The study examined the socio-economic factors influencing the participation of rural farming households in barter trade in Ondo State, Nigeria. The objectives were to compare the socio-economic characteristics of the participants and non-participants in barter trade, analyze the preference for barter trade and identify the constraints to it. Also, the factors affecting respondents' participation in barter trade were identified. Empirical results indicated that there were significant differences in the socio-economic characteristics of the participants and non-participants in barter trade. The SWOT analysis showed that possession of agrarian attributes by the locality where the trade is practiced was the strongest factor ensuring the survival of barter in the study area. Double coincidence of wants was found to be the most prevailing weakness associated with barter while the major reason for participation by some households was that the quantity of commodities received is usually higher compared with cash transactions. Transportation cost to barter markets was found to be the greatest threat to the continued existence of barter trade in the area. The results of the Probit model showed that age, household size, transportation cost to cash markets, farm size, distance to barter markets, and formal education significantly affected the probability participating in barter trade.
