Abstract

본 연구에서는 아시아-태평양 지역의 디지털 격차가 경제성과에 미치는 영향을 분석한다. 우선 역내 디지털화의 진전 정도를 살펴보고, 역내 주요국의 디지털 전환 정책을 텍스트 마이닝 기법을 활용하여 비교·분석한다. 또한 디지털 기술에 대한 접근성과 활용강도의 차이가 국가별 총계 수준의 경제성과에 미치는 영향과 개인별 인적자본 축적의 메커니즘을 통한 노동시장 성과에 미치는 영향을 실증분석한다. 분석결과를 통해 APEC과 소속 회원국들이 디지털 포용 정책에 역량을 집중하여야 할 근거를 제시하고, 역내 디지털 포용 국제공조 플랫폼으로서의 APEC 기능 강화 방향과 역내 디지털 협력 강화를 위한 한국의 협력방안을 제안한다. This study examines the progress of digitalization in the Asia- Pacific region, compares and analyzes the digital transformation policies of major economies in the region using text mining techniques, and demonstrates the effect of the digital gap on economic performance by dividing the regional economic development stage by individual country. Also, an empirical analysis was performed on how the difference in access to digital technology and intensity of use has an impact not only on the overall economic performance of a country but also labor market performance through the mechanism of individual human capital accumulation. The analysis results suggest APEC and its member economies focus their capabilities on digital inclusion policies. And the results propose a direction for strengthening APEC's function as an international cooperation platform for digital inclusion in the region, and a cooperation plan for strengthening digital cooperation in Korea.
