Does modern technology has changed culture ? Technology directly affects the way humans live. Further, the culture can be changed by diverse set of factors such as technology. Previous studies has explained the concept of culture is remained constantly and does not changed by the theoretical aspects. However, this paper consider the culture is a dynamic factor and changes as a result of diverse set of factors such as technology. the aim of this paper is that analyzing secondary data about culture and technology by utilizing Hofstede and GLOBE. Additionally, The development of technology proves that level of individualism would be generated from the improvement of current technology. This study also finds that technology capabilities, technology diffusion are positively related to Individualism. otherwise, The results our research into the statistical data have found that the development of technology decreases Power Distance(PDI) Finally, this paper supports the idea of global cultural convergence and suggests the technology is an important driver of convergence among different cultures.

이 논문은 무상원조에 대한 의존도가 매우 높은 탄자니아경제에 있어서 무상원조 유입이 탄자니아의 경제성장에 미친 영향을 경험적으로 검증한다. 검증결과는, 첫째, 비선형효과가 고려되지 않는 경우 무상원조는 경제성장을 야기하지 않는 것으로 나타난다. 둘째, 그렇지만 비선형효과가 고려되는 경우, 무상원조는 경제성장을 유의미하게 야기하는 것으로 나타난다. 또한, 원조에 대한 수익체감 현상이 발견된다. 셋째, 물가상승율 저하와 수출증진이 경제성장에 양의 영향을 미치는 현저한 근거가 보인다. 넷째, 무상원조의 경제성장에 미치는 효과는 특정한 국내 정책조건에 따라 영향 받지 않는 것으로 나타난다.

This paper examines the impact of grants on economic growth in Tanzania from 1986 to 2013. The empirical evidence shows that, first, if the non-linear effect of grants is not considered, grants appear not to cause economic growth. Second, when the non-linear effect is considered, grants are revealed to cause economic growth. There is evidence of a diminishing return from grants. Third, there is some evidence of a reduction in the inflation rate and export expansion having a positive effect on economic growth. Fourth, the impact of grants on economic growth is revealed not to be conditional upon a certain policy.

In 2015, the total container throughput of Busan Port increased by 4.1% to 19.45 million TEU, while the throughput of transshipment cargo increased by 7.6% to 10.8 million TEU, indicating that transshipment cargo is increasing in importance in terms of both growth rate and market share. In the Northeast Asia region, mainly China, Japan, and Russia ports use Busan port as the transshipment port. Therefore, the objective of this study is to derive port of marketing for transshipment of transit port of Busan port by portfolio analysis of major port of Korea, Japan and Russia using Busan port as a transshipment port. The result indicated Tianjin, Qingdao, Dalian, and Shanghai were included as key marketing target ports for the transshipment of Busan port. Ports requiring continuous marketing are Ports in Shenzhen, Xiamen, Hakata, Nagoya, Yokohama, Ningbo, Vladivostok, Tokyo, and Osaka. As a result of the selected ports, it can be used as a marketing strategy for attracting transshipment cargoes to Busan port and as a basic data.

Empirical evidence has been accumulated for learning by exporting that export firms can enhance innovation performance by acquiring diverse knowledge in overseas markets. However, there are a lack of research on the factors moderating the effect of learning by exporting and difficulty in generalizing the current empirical results of learning by exporting. To fill these gaps, this study suggests hypotheses concerned with technological assets as a moderating factor and examines the hypotheses based on the Korean pharmaceutical industry. Empirical results show that export sales have a positive effect on the innovation performance of pharmaceutical firms and that this positive relationship is strengthened as the firms possess more technological assets

This paper analyzes the effect of U.S system of TBT against China’s export to U.S with the case of Chinese tea export. Based on the analysis, the paper offers strategic and policy recommendations for the Chinese government and enterprises to be better prepared for the U.S system of TBT against China’s exports. The United States maintains a robust system to support implementation of its trade obligations on standards-related measures through strong central management of its regulatory regime We analyzed the variables can affect the China’s exports through gravity trade model. In this paper We did regression analysis with gravity model. We also analysed the industries specific factors can role in the U.S system of TBT The results show that the U.S TBT regulation and economic variables can affect Chinese exports.

Trade between Korea and China began to increase in 1992 after Korea-China diplomatic relations began, and it has been growing rapidly until recently. In this situation, Korea-China FTA is a crisis and opportunity for Korea. Therefore, in this study, it analyzed that the effects of the trade index and tariff elimination by expanding the gravity model as well as the effects of the existing free trade agreement and economic integration based on the HS 85 code, which is the largest portion of Korea 's imports and exports. The results of the study are as follows. First, the variables of the basic gravity model, such as the distance, GDP, and population, are shown that same with the previous researches by gravity model. Second, trade complementarity index is showed no effect of trade creation, while the other export similarity index and export and import price index are showed effects of trade creation. Finally, FTA and economic integration are analyzed that have effects of trade creation.
