This paper presents a strategic adoption model for blockchain technology in nuclear nonproliferation by analysing the implementation of legally binding agreements and leveraging results from governmentleading sectors. Blockchain has been emerging as not only a single promising technology but a foundational one which can be combined with diverse sectors. From the national point of view, it is imperative that the government formulates policy for fostering blockchain-related industries, thereby, gaining a competitive advantage at the national level. Accordingly, the Korean government has established the Blockchain Technology Development and Diffusion Strategies in 2018 and 2020, respectively, to verify the technology by supporting pilot projects for apposite industries, such as customs clearance, transhipment of containers, record-keeping of meat processing, and smart contracts. In addition, the strategies announce to support liaison with regulatory sandbox and cooperation between the projects. Internationally, on the other hand, nuclear nonproliferation imposes the duties of verifying that member states under the NPT and the Safeguards Agreement obey the IAEA mandate, “Atoms for Peace and Development”. Similarly, bilateral nuclear cooperation agreements and administrative arrangements specify reporting obligations for the origin and history records of the Trigger List items. Meanwhile, commercial and industrial secrets and other confidential information of any entities involved have to be securely protected. Provided accompanying activities accomplish the integrity of records and mutual transparency, it brings more credibility, and further, the competitiveness of the state’s nuclear industry. In conclusion, the tasks that the Republic of Korea implements as an exemplary country complying with the nuclear nonproliferation regime have many similarities with the pilot projects that have been or are being carried out under national strategies for fostering blockchain technology elsewhere. This implies that the leveraging of the subsets can derive a new competitive model in blockchain adoption that contributes to the competitiveness of the national nuclear industry due to the advanced nuclear regulations.

본 연구의 목적은 전라남도 해양수산 분야의 정책 사업들에 대한 기반기술을 호남지역 Sea Grant 사업단(이하 호남 SG)에서 확보하기 위한 연구개발 전략방안을 수립하는데 있다. 호남 SG의 목적은 과학적인 기반을 토대로 연구와 대민활동 및 교육을 전개하여 지속 가능한 호남지역 연안자원의 보존과 발전을 도모함에 있다. 전략수립을 위하여 우선, 80건의 전라남도 정책 자료와, 40건의 호남 SG 연구 자료를 입수한 후, 다섯 가지 해양수산 분야로 분류하였다. 그리고 각 분야별 자료에서 핵심단어를 발췌한 후, 핵심단어에 내포된 의미를 '실용위주', '이론위주', '미래지향', '현재지향' 등 네 가지 척도를 갖는 4분법적 의미 분할 방법을 적용하여 평가하였다. 그리고 평가결과를 기반으로 전략방안을 제안하고, 제안한 전략방안의 현장적용에 관해서 검토하였다.
