최근 4차산업과 급격한 디지털화, 세계 경제성장률의 하락 등으로 노 동시장은 급격하게 변화하고 있으며 이로 인해 청년 실업률은 매우 높은 상태이다. 또한, 인구구조와 산업구조의 재편에 따라 청년층의 취업여건 은 나아지지 않고, 기업은 신입보다 경험을 가진 인력을 채용하고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 해외 주요국(독일, 덴마크, 영국, 프랑스, 호주)의 청년 일경험 지원정책에 대해 살펴보고 일경험 프로그램을 종합적으로 비교함으로써 우리나라의 청년 일경험 정책에 관한 시사점을 도출하였 다. 분석결과 주요국의 청년 일경험 프로그램은 목적을 달리하여 운영되 고 있고, 대상자의 근로능력 수준에 따라 적합한 프로그램을 연계하고 있다. 또한, 단계별 프로그램과 대상에 따른 프로그램으로 구성되어 있고 운영은 직접 운영과 민간위탁 방식으로 구분되었다. 이러한 비교분석 결 과를 바탕으로 정책적 시사점을 제시하였다.

In Korea, Starting with the permanent shutdown of Kori Unit1, decommissioning of commercial nuclear power plant is underway. Although various technologies are required to decommissioning a nuclear power plant, the most important technology is the characterization of radioactive waste. In particular, it is possible to establish an accurate decommissioning plan and estimate cost for radioactive waste through accurate characterization of reactor vessel (RV), reactor vessel internal (RVI) and bioshield, which are highly activated waste. In Slovakia’s V1 nuclear power plant, two units were shutdown in 2006 and 2008, respectively, and decommissioning license was approved in July 2011. Before approving the decommissioning license, the decommissioning database project was carried out from 2008 to 2011. At this time, radioactive evaluation was performed through sampling and radiological analysis of radioactive structures.

본 연구는 2007~2016년까지 한국기업들의 해외진출 자료를 이용하여 해외 진출국 내 한국기업에 의한 산업 집적이 한국기업의 해외자회사 퇴출에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 집적-자회사 퇴출 간 관계를 조절하는 본사 및 집적 차원의 요인들을 규명하였다. Cox의 비례 위험회귀모형의 추정결과에 따르면 한국기업에 의한 산업집적 수준은 자회사 퇴출 위험에 음(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 본사의 국제화 경험은 투자지역 내 한국기업에 의한 산업집적 수준과 한국기업 자회사 퇴출 위험 감소 간 관계를 부(-)의 방향으로 조절하는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 집적지 내 기업 이탈 수준은 투자지역 내 한국기업에 의한 산업집적 수준과 한국기업 자회사 퇴출 위험 감소 간 관계를 정(+)의 방향으로 조절하는 것을 확인하였다.

제염은 원전 해체를 위한 가장 중요한 기술 중의 하나이다. 제염은 해체작업자의 피폭을 감소시키고 발전소 일부 부품을 재 활용 할 수 있게 한다. 현재는 해체 제염기술의 효용성에 대한 자료가 많지는 않다. 대부분의 경우, 제염 후, 부분적인 방사 능준위가 규제의 적용을 받지 않는 수준까지 낮아 질 수 있으므로 좋은 제염효율을 갖는 제염기술은 꾸준히 개발되어야 한 다. 본 논문에는 이러한 제염기술을 활용하여 원전을 해체한 미국 및 유럽국가들의 경험사례를 설명하였다. 국내 원전을 해 체 할 경우 이 연구가 선행사례로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Introduction This article analyzes retail store openings of luxury fashion brands in international markets. Our aim is to point out the relevance of this market entry strategy as well as to highlight the main destination markets and different trends over the 2004-2013 period. More precisely, this article analyzes the role of the retail direct channel as a means to manage relationships with consumers in international markets. The choice to develop retail operations in international markets is considered in this article as one of the key strategies implemented by luxury manufacturing companies. However, it seems to have received minor attention in the academic literature dealing with internationalization (Guercini and Runfola, 2014). Consequently, the main aim of this article is to propose empirical evidence to support the widespread use of this strategy by luxury firms, proposing the analysis of an original database built on the retail store operations of a sample of Italian fashion luxury companies over the period 2004-2013. The retail marketing strategy is a peculiar strategy within the luxury marketing strategies. As stated by Kapferer and Bastien (2012), in fact, through retail store openings (and distribution in general), luxury companies may implement and take advantage from what has been defined by the authors the “watchword of luxury brand management” (p. 233) namely “experience”. In fact, the literature in the field of luxury retailing has pointed out the role of the point of sale from a consumer point of view to experience the value of a company. The discussion on the consumer perspective is increasing in the literature as testified by various contributions aimed at analyzing and discussing how and what kind of experiences could be transferred by the opening of retail stores and in what terms the luxury retail strategy differs from other retail marketing strategies (Dion and Arnould, 2011). The opening of retail stores from luxury companies has been considered within the stream of research on the internationalization of the company. It has been pointed out that companies with luxury positioning can differentiate their offering with respect to mass market retailers and open retail stores even in culturally distant markets (Hutchinson et al. 2009). These openings, however, are considered more as ways of promoting the brand, rather than a structural international retail development (Moore et al., 2010). In fact, it has been noticed that luxury griffes open retail stores quite exclusively in primary locations (Hutchinson et al. 2009) and that most of the internationalization literature on retail stores openings by luxury firms is referred to the opening of flagship stores (Moore et al., 2010), a specific retail store format that from its nature, is mostly related to brand promotion than to an effective and stable retail development. In fact, retailing as international market entry strategy implies significant investment both in economic and cognitive terms (Mattila el al., 2002; Guercini and Runfola, 2010). The study of retail stores opening as an entry strategy in international markets remains an understudied field of study in the academic literature, as evidenced for example by Ilonen et al. (2011) in their study on the importance of branded retail in manufacturers' international strategy. Moreover, the authors point out that among other things, this remains a topic of interest but not yet analyzed in the case of the fashion industry. Following this reasoning, our article aims to answer to the subsequent research questions: RQ1 - What is the evolution over time of the distribution investments of luxury fashion manufacturing companies? RQ2 - Is there a difference between emerging markets and advanced markets for luxury retail store openings? RQ3 - What is the role of metropolitan areas and how does this evolve over time? Methodology and discussion We investigate these research questions in the case of Italian luxury manufacturing companies. In order to study the expansion of Italian luxury companies, we have exploited the information contained in the database that we have created expressly for the purposes of this research. The database has been compiled by examining any news contained in two specialized and highly recognized national fashion-sector publications - Fashion and Pambianco Week - regarding the opening of retail outlets in foreign countries by Italian luxury firms in the decade 2004-2013. For the purpose of this research we have considered as luxury brands those brands that are members of Altagamma, a association whose members are Italian companies that operate at the highest end of the market, and those brands that are recognized globally and by academics and empirical press as luxury brands, although not being members of Altagamma. The above process has identified 594 sales points opened by 39 Italian brands in 62 countries over the period 2004-2013. The top 10 brands for number of store openings over this period are the followings: Prada (64), Salvatore Ferragamo (59), Miu Miu (51), Ermenegildo Zegna (31), Valentino (29), Armani (26), Versace (26), Gianfranco Ferrè (25), Brioni (22), Etro (22). Hereafter we try to describe some preliminary findings regarding the three research questions advanced previously. RQ1 – What is the evolution over time of the distribution investments of luxury fashion manufacturing companies? Our analysis seems to show an evolution in this growth strategy over the period 2004-2013. In fact, if during the period 2004-2008 our analysis shows the opening of 261 single-brand outlets by the enterprises of our sample, during the period 2009-2013 the number of operations became 333 stores. This seems to highlight how, even in a period of international crisis, the retail strategy for luxury companies remained fundamental for growing abroad. The year 2008 is the year with the maximum number of stores opened by our companies (95 stores, roughly 16% of the total 594 stores opened), while the year 2004 is the one with the minimum number of stores opened, only 35 stores (roughly 6%). Moreover, each year from 2009-2011 accounts for over 70 stores. RQ2- Is there a difference between emerging markets and advanced markets for luxury retail store openings? In order to distinguish between “mature”, developed countries and “emerging” ones, we considered the first 24 countries that joined firstly the OCSE as “mature”, while all the remaining countries have been considered “emerging”. Our analysis reveals during the period analyzed a growing incidence by emerging markets compared to mature markets, given that emerging markets account for 60.9% of the openings. Moreover, in each year analyzed emerging markets overcome advanced markets for number of stores opened. However, traditional mature markets for Italian luxury (such as USA or Japan) as well as new emerging markets (such as China and Russia) are within the top destinations all over the period. If we consider only the first three markets for number of retail operations we may note some differences between the two sub-periods. In fact, during the period 2004-2008 the first three markets listed for decreasing number of operations were the USA (45 retail stores opened, 17,2% of the total number of stores), China (29 stores, 11,1% of the total) and India (19 stores, 7,3% of the total). During the period 2009-2013, China increased the number of operations, becoming the leading market with 74 stores, representing 22,2% over the total, followed by the USA (46 stores, 13,2% of the total) and United Arab Emirates (15 stores, 4,5%). The rising of China in the second period, is associated with an increasing importance of other emerging markets such as Brazil and South Korea, that in the previous period were not within the top international destinations. We should however stress that other mature markets, such as France and Japan still have key roles for Italian luxury companies. RQ3 – What is the role of metropolitan areas and how does this evolve over time? Our analysis shows that the major cities world-wide are present in our database. In total the companies in our sample have opened stores in 163 cities. Over the period 2004-2013 the top 10 cities listed for decreasing number of stores are the following: Shanghai (30), Hong Kong (28), New York (25), Moscow (24), Tokyo (22), Paris (21), Dubai (20), London (20), Los Angeles (20), Beijing (20). However, as evidenced by the data, while in the period 2004-2008, the total number of cities targeted by the companies were 83, in the following period 2009-2013 the number cities targeted became 127. This data seems to highlight how, over time, the presence of luxury firms is not only concentrated in the top cities around the world neither only in luxury streets, but affects a larger number of cities and locations. Take for example the case of the new rising Chinese cities of the II, III and IV tiers. To conclude, our research points out how retail strategy implemented by luxury manufacturing companies is one of the driving strategy for relating the company with consumers in international markets. This strategy seems to represent a relevant and widespread used strategy to enter in foreign market and to develop the brand further. Some considerations are due on the limitations inherent in the present study, which can also furnish some useful indications as to future work. The empirical evidence reported here is based on secondary research in market publications. Aside from collecting further, more up-to-date information, future research should be addressed to performing a number of enterprise case studies in order to acquire a better understanding of the phenomena at play through contacts with luxury enterprise managers with whom to share the main aspects involved in establishing sales networks in foreign countries. Moreover, the considerations advanced are based on empirical evidence drawn solely from study of the Italian luxury fashion industry. In this sense, future research should aim to check if any differences exist in retail store openings between the Italian fashion system and the luxury fashion industries of other economically mature nations (e.g., France, the UK, Japan or the USA). Although, our empirical analysis has some limitations, it seems to confirm that the retail market strategy is a key strategy to relate with consumers in international markets and to let them “experience” the brand. For manufacturing companies in the luxury field this strategy should not be considered only in terms of promotion, as typically associated with the opening of flagship stores abroad. Rather, it represents an effective retail strategy with important implications from a managerial point of view. Considering this latter point, future research should be directed towards the study of the different strategic behaviors aiming at pointing out different strategic groups within our companies, for example in terms of company size or destination markets. In general terms, future research should be directed towards the study of the link between retail stores openings and customer experience in international markets. This issue has a particular relevance in the case of the Italian fashion industry, where understanding the retail strategy of luxury companies may contribute to recognize potential bandwagon effects of other companies in this sector, such as small and medium sized companies with other positioning.

국제법과 국내법의 충돌은 헌법 학자와 국제법 학자의 연구 대상으로 오랫동안 논란의 대상이 되어 왔지만 이러한 충돌은 국제적인 성격이 강한 해상법의 영역에서 실제로 가장 많이 발생한다 그런데 최근 해상법의 영역에서 종래 헌법이나 국제법 이론으로 설명이 되지 않는 새로운 현상이 발생하고 있고 이러한 현상은 법률가들이 미쳐 검토와 대안을 제시하기도 전에 그 영역을 확대 하여 가고 있으며 이러한 현상은 처음에는 해상법의 영역에서 시작되었지만 최근에 다른 분야로 그 범위를 넓혀가고 있다 종래 국제법과 국내법은 모두 국가주권주의에 바탕을 두고 있었고 국가의 동의를 통하여 성립한 조약의 범위 내에소 조약이 효력을 갖는 것으로 이해하였다 그러나 최근에는 조약에 기초를 두고 있기는 하지만 국제기구가 스스로 많은 규정을 만들어 이를 세계적으로 시행하고 있다 적용 대상인 국가가 국가 주권을 내세워 이에 대항할 수 없는 현상이 차츰 여기저기에서 많이 나타나고 있고 이는 결국 국제법이 사실상 국내법에 우선하는 효력을 갖게 되는 결과를 가져왔다 국제적인 성격이 강한 해운 항공 및 통신 분야에서 이러한 현상이 두더러 지고 있으며 특히 해운 분야에서는 해운활동을 규제하는 많은 국제적인 규범이 있는데 어느 국가이든 이를 사실상 수용하지 않을 수 없는 현상이 나타나고 있다 이러한 새로운 현상에 대하여 법률가의 입장에서 절차적으로 이를 어떻게 정당화 하며 국내법적으로 어떻게 그 범위와 한계를 설정할지 의문이 제기된다 최근에 이탈리아에서 유럽 연합과 관련하여 이 문제가 제기되어 이탈리아 헌법의 개정에까지 이른 경험을 바탕으로 해상법학자로서 비록 최종적인 결론을 제시할 성질은 아니라 하더라도 앞으로 이 문제가 발전할 방향을 제시하고자 한다

한국기업들의 해외직접투자에 관한 선행연구들은 주로 국가 수준과 기업 수준에서 분석되어 왔으나, 사외이사의 특성이 기업의 해외직접투자에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 또한, 사외이사의 특성과 기업의 전략적 선택에 관한 기존의 연구들은 대리인이론과 자원의존이론을 이론적 기반으로 접근하였으나, 자원기반이론으로 설명하려는 시도는 미천한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 연구들의 한계를 극복하고자 자원기반관점에 근거하여 한국기업들의 해외직접투자에 영향을 미치는 선행요인을 사외이사의 해외경험과 사외이사의 사회적 자본으로 상정하고 실증분석을 실시하였다. 아울러, 해외직접투자 규모에 대한 사외이사 특성의 영향력이 재벌기업과 비재벌 기업 간 차이가 있는지를 분석하기 위해 추가분석을 실시하였다. 1999년부터 2006년까지 47개국에 투자한 한국 상장기업의 해외직접투자 금액을 종속변수로, 사외이사의 해외경험, 그리고 사외이사의 사회적 자본을 독립변수로 하여 패널분석을 시행한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 전체 샘플에서 사외이사의 사회적 자본이 한국기업의 해외직접투자에 유의한 정의 관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났으며, 사외이사의 해외경험은 해외직접투자에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 재벌기업과 비재벌기업으로 구분하여 추가분석을 실시한 결과, 재벌기업의 경우 사외이사의 사회적 자본이 해외직접투자에 유의한 정의 관계를 가지며, 비재벌기업의 경우 사외이사의 해외경험이 해외직접투자에 유의한 정의 관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

China has made great achievements in space activities in recent years. While emphasizing the principle of self-independence, China also acknowledges the importance of space cooperation. As early as 2001, China indicated its interest in joining the International Space Station. However, no substantive progress has been made concerning China’s participation thus far. This may be a result of political and economic, rather than legal and technical, considerations. There is no doubt that China’s participation shall contribute to the sustainable development of the ISS. China’s participation could also offer an excellent opportunity to reexamine the 1998 framework and clarify or improve certain provisions that exist in the current regime. While technologically ready for participation, China should start considering possible legal issues that may arise from its participation in the ISS project. This article takes up the challenging task of identifying potential legal issues that may arise in the course of China’s participation in the ISS and offers suggestions for a future cooperative legal framework regarding the ISS.

The importance and extent of the migration phenomenon, affecting as it does huge numbers of people the world over cannot be overemphasized. Coming from third world countries, poverty-stricken and strangers in foreign lands, migrant workers irrespective of country of origin indeed become vulnerable to oppression and exploitation and all kinds of abuses. The question that needs to be addressed continues to be whether or not the existing ILO Conventions and Recommendations as well as the core international human rights treaties together with the International Convention on Migrant Workers have been adequately implemented in order to effectively address the problems related to the promotion and protection of migrant workers’rights. Given the flood of unabated reports and complaints of abuses and exploitation that migrant workers the world over have to suffer and contend with, the answer is quite obvious. While bilateral and multilateral agreements continue to serve the specific concerns of sending and receiving States pertinent to the protection of the rights of migrant workers, the real need is for a continent-wide forum in Asia which can eventually consolidate all mechanisms and measures that will promote and protect the rights of migrant workers in a truly comprehensive and integrated manner.

Firstly, based on three coordinating system theory nine organization models are identified, and described in more detail using additional structural features. In the following, developed theoretical frame is illustrated by applying it to four countries.

This research investigated the impact of the International Student Teacher Exchange Program (I-STEP) on the enhancement of preservice teachers’ cultural sensitivity. The results of this research are consistent to the findings from previous studies confirming the positive effect of international field experiences. Specifically, the analysis of the quantitative survey showed that the 2008 I-STEP programs were effective in improving participant impressions on the hosts’ ethno-groups. The journal analysis confirmed this result by showing that the preservice teachers reconsidered their beliefs about other ethnic groups through the program participation. Although the participants had possessed a set of biases about the ethnic groups, the participants interacted with host ethnic groups and reconsidered their beliefs about the groups. Through person-to-person interaction, the participants found that human beings share some commonalities in ways of feeling and living. At the same time, they realized that people can be different and that the differences are cultural constructions. As the I-STEP allowed the participants to access to others’ lived worlds, they witnessed other possibilities of being in the world and reflected upon their own ways of living. Thus, this experience of cultural emersion expanded the participants’ worldviews and developed the attitude of active respect. Based on these findings, this paper presents several implications for the future development of international field experience programs for preservice teachers and further of multicultural teacher education curricula in general.
