Recently, it is widely recognized that the grand economic zones are important for promoting competitive power in the world. The grand economic zones should be implemented with the fundamental understanding for the disparity`s factors in industrial structure. However, the literature shows that there have been relatively few empirical attempts to analyze this issue. This study attempts to reviews the factors of disparity between local area and capital area in the industrial structure observed in grand economic region by applying a DPG(Deviation of Proportional Growth) model to the IO tables of these region. The DPG model defines a measure of the degree of difference in output composition and breaks it down into factors including final demand ones like consumption, investment, export, etc, and a technological factor representing the efficiency of intermediate demand, import. Concerning difference of the industry structure of local area, export demand were the leading factors that boosted local region's growth sectors.

This study aims to analyze the regional influences of the Seohaean highway construction which was completed in the end of 2001. In general, the expansion of social overhead capitals(SOC) such as road, railway, harbor often causes the regional effects indirectly on demographic configuration, industrial structure, land use and finance, etc. In this sense, this empirical analysis focuses on the regional effects of the Seohaean highway construction and employs the quasi-experimental control group methodology to find the statistical differences between the experimental group(13 cities or counties which the Seohaean highway is penetrated) and the control group by t-test. The findings of this study indicate that the construction of the Seohaean highway has brought differential influences over regions and sectors.

Canada was not well known with its wine industry before the 1990s. Neither was so the wine industry of the Niagara region of Canada. However, Niagara has now emerged as one of the well-known wine regions of the world. Even if the region produces small amount of wines, it is almost the only wine of the world where a particular type of wine, i.e., the Icewine is produced stablly over the last a few decades. Based on the severe winter climate, the Niagara region has established a major wine cluster, consisted of wineries, wine tour, festivals and supporting activities from research, educational, and governmental institutions. This paper introduces how the region has created the wine cluster in a short period and analyses factors contributing to and the mechanisms of the cluster. It identifies factors contributing to the success as entrepreneurship of the founders of the core wineries, such as Cave Spring, Hillebrand, and Reif, strong governmental policies, and supports from research and educational institutions, such as Brock University and Vineland Research and Innovation Centre.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effects of the landscape visibility of a golf course on apartment price through multiple regression and correlation analysis. The case area studied is the surrounding residential district of Hansung C.C. in Yong-in City. The sample size is 114 housing units. The results of the study are summed up as follows; First, there are statistically significant effects of the landscape visibility of a golf course on apartment price. Second, even though apartment brands as a single factor have the most powerful influence on apartment price, the combined influence of various landscape visibility factors is stronger. Third, among the landscape visibility factors, the width of the horizontal visibility of a golf course is the most important factor in apartment price formation.

The aim of this study is to propose guidelines for construction of the urban governing regime by assessing urban regeneration projects and examining characteristics of governance to which has recently been paid attention in order to tackle the urban decline problems. For this study, first of all, the backgrounds and the needs of efficient governance for urban regeneration by reviewing the literature. As a case study, we investigated some applicable techniques for successful regeneration projects to a local city, Masan, and explored possible alternatives to apply systematic governance strategies to the city for private-public partnerships. In particular for an analytic study, the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method was applied to the survey of experts evaluation items and important factors. From this study, we found that the main focus of governance based on private-public partnership should be on accountability and leadership of local government for implementation of regeneration strategies. In addition, we found that organization of stable and permanent governance network are the most critical factor. Also legal and institutional support as well as visions and passions of participants and stake-holders should be included among critical factors for an efficient governance based upon private-public partnership.

This paper is to explain the possibility and the limitation of Slow City (Cittaslow) in Jangheung Country(JeollaNamdo Province). My theoretical resources for the case study is Fast society theory and Alternative regional development theory. This research present environmental policy, slow food, landscape management, local-rooted economic structure as a successful conditions of Slow City. Slow City developed in response to the homogenizing forces of globalizaiton. Slow City seeks to implement and nurture environmental, socially and economically sustainable practices promoting local distinctiveness, characteristics and tradition. As a research results, the successful possibility of Jangheung Country as Slow City appears relatively highly. But, limited factors of Slow City as change of leadership, lack of institutional and financial resources, crack of community inside, population decrease and aged population increase were discovered from research result. Consequently, to success the Slow City project must develop to type of Jangheung as Slow City model.

According to the Korea National Statistical Office, it is expected that our society will enter into an aged society from 2018. So it is necessary to study consciousness of the aged preparing for the aged society. This study was performed to analyse the difference of neighborhood perception of aged groups, subdivided into 50s, 60s and over 70s. To achieve this study, a survey was conducted on 500 peoples aged over 50 in Daejeon. The results of this study are summarized as follows; First, there is little difference in residential consciousness such as housing type among the three aged groups. Secondly, the aged has a corresponding perception in a sense of distance as to residence location of his child. Thirdly, there are apparent differences in using pattern of city facilities. And finally, correlation analysis was executed to examine the similarity among satisfactions surveyed on environment for the aged. It is considered that the results are related with life-style change. The results of this study is expected to get a clue for policy making and planning on residence location and facility distribution of the aged.

This study examined construction companies and analyzed the restrictions in securitizing the beneficiary right, the required conditions for securitization, and the effects of securitizing beneficiary right in real estate development trust on the construction companies. As a result, the reasons for the beneficiary right unable to be securitized are first, that there was no tradable market being formed (33.5%), second, that many people are ignorant about the plans to make the securitization of beneficiary right (31.8%), and third, that the beneficiary right cannot become the basic assets for securitization (20.5%). It is discovered that the required conditions to make the beneficiary right to become liquid is first, the formation of market to trade the beneficiary right (34.8%), second, the clear legal establishment of marketable security (25.0%), and third, the installation of the credit enhancing devices (19.7%). In addition, as for the effects of the securitization of the beneficiary right on the construction companies, the study showed that there were positive effects such as more opportunities to participate in construction, the lowering of the construction unit cost, the increase in the securitization, and the reduction of the debt burden. Therefore, it is expected that the securitization of beneficiary right in real estate development trust will sufficiently carry out its function as a new way to supply capital in order to solve the securitization problems currently suffered by the construction market as well as construction companies.

This paper aims to analyze the relation between less development index(LDI) and the industrial structure of the depressed cities and counties of the Korea. LDI correlates positively with the ratio of the primary industrial engager(RPI) to the total industrial engager. However, RPI is the most reciprocal proportion to the ratio of the tertiary industrial engager(RTI) to the total industrial engager. This inverse relation implicates above all the possibility that the regional engager can move from the primary industry to the tertiary industry. As a result of regression analysis, LDI increases more and more if the habitants are, ceteris paribus, more occupied in the primary industry, and decreases inversely if the habitants are in the secondary and the tertiary industry. And LDI grows still larger, if RPI increases relatively as the human and physical capital flows out from the depressed region to the big city. RTI has the largest effects on LDI, in the viewpoint of the absolute value of β-coefficient.

This paper attempts to analyze efficiency of the housing redevelopment market from the standpoint of property rights theory, a branch of the various New Institutional Economics disciplines. Recognizing the shortcomings of the Pareto-efficiency criterion in the theoretical as well as practical sense, the property rights approach concentrates on examining the transactions and the relevant transaction cost implications that occur in the housing redevelopment market, together with the incentive structures that are provided by various institutions that define and enforce property rights in the market. The findings show that because property rights are not clearly defined and distributed among the stakeholders and market participants, there exist various transaction costs which, in turn, cause substantial inefficiency in the process of housing redevelopment. Furthermore, the inefficiency is asymmetrically distributed among the market participants, with being disproportionately biased toward the less empowered households and tenants. To improve efficiency in the allocation of resources, property rights should be defined in a more sound fashion reflecting faithfully the existing property rights, and if possible, the bundle of property rights should be separated, with each being transferable among the market participants. In addition, suppressing the rent-seeking behaviors on the part of the influential participants in the markets would improve efficiency in the property development market.

본 연구의 목적은 통근시간이 맞벌이 가구의 주거이동에 미치는 영향을 분석하는데 있다. 본 연구에서는 인구 및 주택센서스 2% 표본자료를 이용하여 1990년과 2000년의 서울을 비롯한 6개 광역시에 거주하고 있는 맞벌이 가구의 통근과 주거이동과의 연관성을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 조건부로짓모형(conditional logit model)과 혼합로짓모형(mixed logit model)을 이용하여 남편과 아내의 통근시간이 가구의 주거이동에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 주요 분석결과는 첫째, 맞벌이가구의 다른 모든 사회 통계적 변인을 통제한 가운데서도 남편과 아내의 통근시간은 주거이동에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 드러났다. 둘째, 맞벌이 가구에 대한 주거이동의 선택은 아내의 통근시간이 남편의 통근시간보다 더욱 중요한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 경향은 1990년과 2000년 모두에서 동일한 것으로 나타났으나, 2000년에서 이러한 경향이 더욱 두드러지는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 현상은 맞벌이가구의 증가와 더불어 남편보다는 아내의 통근시간이 짧은 지역으로 이주하는 경향이 높은 것을 의미하는데, 이것은 주로 아내의 자녀양육 등과 같은 가사노동의 아내에 대한 편중이 야기하는 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 결과는 통근　통학과 관련된 다른 많은 연구에서 간과한 맞벌이가구에 대한 남편과 아내의 개별 통근시간을 명확이 모형에 삽입하여 추정한 결과로서 다양한 이론적, 정책적 함의를 제공할 것으로 판단된다.

본 논문은 최근 브랜드화되고 있는 아파트에 대한 자산 가치를 개념적·조작적으로 정의하여 가격결정 요인과 가격의 함수관계를 살펴보는 것을 그 목적으로 하였다. 강남구에 밀집된(agglomerated) 아파트들이 다른 지역과 동질적(homogeneous)이면서도 이질적(heterogeneous) 브랜드 자산 가치를 동시에 가지고 있다는 가정 하에 연구를 단행하였다. 본 연구에서 ‘동질적’ 브랜드 자산 가치는 ‘아파트 건설회사의 브랜드 가치’로 정의되었고, ‘이질적’ 브랜드 자산 가치는 ‘8학군의 사회관계망(social network)에 대한 접근성(accessibility)의 가치’로 정의되었다. 방법론적 측면에서, 첫째로 본 연구는 헤도닉 가격함수를 사용한 기존연구에서 흔히 채택된 아파트 건설회사의 브랜드 가치의 더미변수 대신, 등간척도를 도입하여 보다 세밀한 연구를 도모하였다. 둘째, 기존연구에서 브랜드로 정의되지 않았던 ‘8학군’의 개념을 일종의 브랜드로 개념적·조작적으로 재정의하고, 등간척도화된 사회적 자본 점수를 회귀분석의 변수로 도입하여 중요한 가격결정 요인으로 연구를 시도하였다. 강남지역에 대한 회귀분석 결과, (건축연한 등과 함께) ‘동질적’ 가치의 영향이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 보다 과학적인 연구 설계를 위해 후속 연구에서 서울 내 다른 구들과 비교연구를 할 경우, 8학군의 이질적 가치가 횡단면 연구에서 더욱 명확히 드러나리라 기대된다. 금번 연구는 강남구 지역에 국한된 연구의 한계점에도 불구하고, 후속 연구를 위한 6가지의 이론적 및 방법론적 제안으로 결론을 맺고 있다.

고용의 공간적 재배치는 인구의 공간적 이동과 밀접한 관계를 갖는다. 국내외 주요도시들에서 직장지와 주거지를 잇는 통근통행의 소요시간이 수년 혹은 수십 년간 그다지 큰 변화를 보이지 않았다는 사실은 공간구조의 분산화 및 교외화 과정 속에서 인구와 고용이 긴밀한 연관관계 하에 재배치 되었다는 것을 의미하는 것이다. 본 연구는 인구주택총조사 2%표본의 네시점자료(1990, 1995, 2000, & 2005)를 이용하여 수도권에서 고용과 인구의 분산화가 어떻게 진행되었는지를 확인하고, 인구와 고용의 재배치 속에서 나타나는 역동적 인과 관계성에 대해 명확히 하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 먼저, 고전적 단일중심모형을 인구와 고용으로 나누어 추정하여 공간구조 분산화의 대략적 패턴에 대한 이해를 도모하였다. 두 번째로 인구와 고용의 인과관계성을 확인하기 위해 그랜져 인과관계 검정(Granger Causality Test)을 이용하여 실증분석을 수행하였다. 분석결과, 과거 15년간의 수도권은 해외의 거대 도시들이 보여왔던 것처럼 괄목할 만한 인구고용의 분산화가 진행되어 왔음을 알 수 있었으며 인구의 교외화가 고용의 교외화를 주도하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 수도권의 직장과 인구의 분산화에 관한 현상적 이해를 도모한 본 논문의 연구결과를 기반으로 향후 연구에서는 이러한 현상에 관한 맥락적 해석이 필요하다고 판단된다.
