Inter-Korean relations have recently improved on the back of the North’s willingness to denuclearize. This will be not only effect positive factor for the South’s export, but could also have a positive effect on economic integration between South and North Korea as the North Korean economy grows. Currently, the seven inter-Korean economic cooperation projects are more likely to be realized, which includes the connection of inter-Korean railways and roads, the light-water reactor project, the resource development project, the Kaesong Industrial Complex, the Mount Geumgang project, the shipbuilding cooperation complex and the joint use of the Han River estuary project. Inter-Korean economic cooperation will not only create a strong synergy effect that further strengthens the development of the Korean people, but will also play an important driver for economic growth in Northeast Asia. The expansion of inter-Korean exchanges, which are aimed at economic cooperation between two Koreas, results in the cooperation of intellectual property. Economic cooperation and the cooperation in intellectual property rights are necessary for economic growth. Nonetheless, it is true that there are many difficulties in cooperation with intellectual property rights because of the lack of experience in economic cooperation due to the political specificity of the two Koreas. When searching for the measures of cooperation in economic and intellectual property right between two Koreas, we could refer to the experience between China Taiwan, which is very similar to our geography, politics, and economic relations. Based on the experience between China and Taiwan in intellectual property rights as maintaining political and economic relations under the slogan of “one china”, the study will suggest good implications for the cooperation of intellectual property rights through inter-Korean economic cooperation.

Morality and law are both closely related as norms of our society, but the two concepts have distinct differences. However, morality and law ultimately pursue the same values, It is the lawful rights and interests of man, the stability and peace of society, and the punishment and condemnation to the action that harms the justice and well-being of society. Thus, in areas where morality can function sufficiently as a norm in our society, laws do not need to interfere, and in areas where morality does not function effectively, laws can play a complementary role. Good Samaritan law refers to prescribing the problems which originally regarded as the area of morality as a law. The Good Samaritan Law is a legal system at which one can be punished if they do not help those in danger, and at the same time, gives immunity to those who save people by good deeds without any legal obligation. Starting from Peng Yu incident, it has become a social problem as so-called backwater incidents have frequently occurred in China, with rescuer seeking to become victims of rescuee suing them, which has led to growing distrust among the public in China. This raised the need for the legislation of the Good Samaritan Law in China, and drafted regulations related to the Good Samaritan Law in various areas, including civil law, criminal law, decisions issued by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, administrative laws announced by the State Council and local laws in each region. In addition, the provisions of the Good Samaritan Law were added to the General Provisions of the Civil Law of the People’s Republic of China that took effect in 2017, and the basis of the Chinese-style Good Samaritan Act was formally laid. This paper concerns its civil legal status in prescribing the Good Samaritan Law as its law in China, which has been regarded as the domain of morality. In this regard, we analyze the traditional Chinese solutions and the problems caused by the moral actions, such as the damages made by moral actions. In response, the legislative status of the Good Samaritan Act in major countries is reviewed and compared with that of China’s, thus, reviewing the current legal status and potential improvement measures in the Chinese civil law.

China’s trade laws have changed and developed according to external factors rather than internal ones. In other words, regulations on the economic system and ownership of the Constitution was revised to attract foreign investment, which was the biggest task since the ‘reform and opening’, and related laws such as the foreign-funded enterprise law was enacted. Before and after joining the WTO, a series of trade law systems, including anti-dumping ordinances, anti-subsidiary ordinances and safeguard ordinances, was established with the focus of Foreign Trade Law. In this process, we can also see that China has a very strong tendency to push legislation based on practical needs rather than logical consistency. At present, in the face of the new task of trade disputes, changes such as the enactment of the Foreign Investment Act and the revision of the Foreign Investment Industry Guidelines are emerging, and depending on the circumstances of future trade disputes, these laws are likely to change together, especially on laws in contentious areas such as regulations related to intellectual property rights and regulations related to forcing technology transfers.

The full-fledged US-China trade war that began in 2018 has led to several pieces of evidence that suggest the bilateral relationship that, up until now, was based on both competition and cooperation, has now entered a phase where strategic competition is its defining characteristic. The recent US-China relationship is complicated because it involves a global hegemony competition that has followed China’s rise. The relationship is one that involves the structure of international politics and time will be required to resolve the issues that the relationship faces. There is an imperative to analyze the current situation through a perspective of confrontation that is centered on the core interests of both sides. Cross-strait relations issue are very important hotspots that may be the site of real clashes between the Chinese and the Americans. The basic issues and contradictions inherent to the current Sino-American relationship include the following: 1) from a political and diplomatic perspective, the issues of travel to Taiwan, National Defense Authorization Act and Taiwan Assurance Act issue; 2) from a military perspective, the blockading of China by the US through its Indo-Pacific strategy and freedom of navigation strategy in the South China Sea; and, 3) from an economic perspective, the “Belt and Road” policy and the trade war between China and the US to dominate advanced fields of technology. Of course, while the two countries are clashing due to the contradictions that have emerged from these basic issues, China and the US are still coexisting under the framework of competition and cooperation, in contrast to the confrontational relationship that existed between the US and the Soviet Union during the Cold War. This means that the US-China relationship is not a zero-sum game and that there is space for the two countries to cooperate across many different spheres. From China’s perspective, the aim is to complete unification of the country. Chinese leaders believe that the goal is peaceful unification and desire avoiding unification by force, yet focus on the “feelings of the people” and believe that the barrier to unification is the US. The Taiwan issue is a very big card that the US can play to put China in line. The issue involves both country’s interests and neither can abandon it. Taiwan is like an “unsinkable aircraft carrier” to the US, and, to China, “territory that must be reunified with the mainland.” Both the US and China cannot back down on the issue. In short, there are four phenomena that will not change in regards to US and Chinese involvement in Taiwan. As a result, as long as the US and Taiwan maintain their current policies, China will be forced to maintain a hardline response toward them.

In order to solve the obvious problem of China’s energy supply and demand, drying up of natural resources and the increasing energy consumption, improve the energy efficiency become the focus of attention. To understanding and comparative analysis of the regional energy using efficiency level, it is necessary to explore the key factors that influencing the energy efficiency. This paper studied the energy utilization efficiency of industrial electricity by using Malmquist index, 30 regions in China between 2006 to 2016. In this period, the industrial electricity and energy utilization efficiency in China increased by 3.5%, the increase of energy utilization efficiency is mainly due to technological changes rather than efficiency changes. Meanwhile, in order to divides the region more effectively, this paper used systematic cluster analysis on the energy use efficiency of 30 regions in China, there were three regions had collected, high-efficiency regions, middle-efficiency regions and low-efficiency regions. At first, the northeast China was found that has the highest efficiency of energy use, which is high-efficiency region. Coastal area is next, which is middle-efficiency regions. Finally, the low efficiency areas are mainly concentrated in Jiangxi province, Henan province and Xinjiang autonomous region.

The purpose of this paper is to empirically test whether the Fisher effect holds in Taiwan and China. In order to determine whether a long-term relationship exists between nominal interest rate and expected inflation rate, monthly data starting in January 2000 were used to identify these effects using ARDL cointegration method. The analysis results are as follows. First, the ARDL bounds test confirmed that there are stable relationships between the two variables in Taiwan and China. Taiwan has an about 0.79 percent interest rate increase for 1 percent inflation over the long term, while China has an 0.29 percent increase of interest rate for the same period. Second, from the estimation results for the error correction models, a significant short-term adjustment process to eliminate the imbalance between the expected inflation rate and nominal interest rate was demonstrated by the coefficients of the error-correction terms in the estimations of the model. Summing up these results, we decide that the weak form of Fisher effects clearly holds in Taiwan and China.

This paper aims to analyze the Xi Jinping Thought from the perspective of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’s ideological strategy and reason out its intentions and ideological implications. Since Reform and Opening Up, the CCP has utilized ideologies as political means, and the CCP’s ideological strategy has played a great role in according legitimacy to the CCP with great economic performance, its political institutionalization, and the stability of Chinese society. In that sense, the Xi Jinping Thought also has several ideological implications. First, it solidifies Xi Jinping’s political power by providing a great ideological authority. Second, it helps the CCP secure legitimacy by reconciling the CCP’s ruling and China’s bright future. Third, it contains the demand for political change to Western democracy by stressing Chinese characteristics and differentiating China and the West. Fourth, it induces the Chinese’s unity by suggesting China as a great power in the international society. From the perspective of the ideological strategy, the Xi Jinping Thought has played a positive role in consolidating Xi’s political power with the intention to offset the public’s resistance against the CCP.

Recently the leadership of Chinese big three online firms, Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent, called the BAT confronts with various difficulties that rarely managed before. The difficulties include the personal data misuse, internet addition, counterfeit goods trade and unethical online marketing, and they work as the direct reason for poor performances of their globalization. In particular, the revenue of Baidu began to be clearly sluggish from 2015, so the revenue gap between Baidu and other two rivals largely increased from that time. This study analyzed the reason for Baidu’s recent downturn from the strategic positioning perspective. The strategic positioning of a firm can be made by three types of business activities; customer needs-based activity, access-based activity, product or service variety-based activity. This study reorganized the business activities of BAT, and displayed the activity system of each firm in order to decide which type of business activities is relatively more than other types. In result, many activities of Baidu turned out to be more oriented for variety-based positioning rather than needs-based positioning or access-based one. Further the needs-based type of activities of Baidu should have been more specific to create a distinctive value for users.
