초록
외국인 투자를 유치하여 지역개발을 도모하려는 전략은 여러나라에서 쓰이고 있고, 이는 우리나라도 마찬가지이다.본 연구는 외국인 투자를 대거 유치하여 지역성장을 이뤘다는 평가를 일각에서 받고 있는 영국 웨일즈 지역의 사례를 심층적으로 분석하여 과연 외국인 투자 중심의 지역발전 전략이 유효한지를 알아보려 하였다. 기존 문헌들을 비판적으로 검토종합한 결과, 웨일즈는 투자 유치 총량을 기준으로 보면 성공적이라 할 수 있지만 상당한 부작용도 있었음을 알 수 있었다. 웨일즈 정부는 세제상의 혜택, 정상적인 계획심의 과정 생략, 개발유보지 제공 등, 각종 혜택을 주었는데 반해, 기업들이 내놓은 성과는 미미했다. 숙련 노동보다는 비숙련 노동, 연구개발보다는 단순조립중심의 공장들이 많이 유치되었고 외국인 투자기업들은 지역의 기업과의 연계도 강하지 않았다. 웨일즈의 경험이 우리에게 주는 교훈은, 외국인 투자만 유치하면 지역발전이 저절로 보장될 것이라는 환상을 버려야 하며, 투자 유치과정에서 중앙정부와 지방정부, 또 지방정부들간에 긴밀한 협력을 통해, 외국인 투자기업을 적절히 규제할 필요가 있는 경우도 있다는 점이다.
Abstract
Attracting advanced foreign enterprises into the less-developed regions has gained increasing importance as a regional development strategy in Korea. This study critically examines the foreign-direct investment-led regional development strategy of Wales, United Kingdom. Despite a high FDI inflow in manufacturing, the Welsh regional economy has suffered from specialization in low-skilled assembly with limited R&D activities, insufficient linkage with local domestic suppliers, and violent fluctuation in local employment in response to changes within the global business environment. This tendency shows that the foreign-invested companies have neither locally embedded themselves enough nor created the external agglomeration economies in the region. At the same time, the Welsh local government’s excessive dependence on financial incentives packages to induce multinationals, rather than effort to create regional innovative capacity, has resulted in a sizable fiscal loss, an abused local planning process, and subordination of the local government’s major administrative decision-making on foreign investors. The Welsh FDI case suggests that an effective FDI attraction policy should include inter-regional cooperation and coordination in the inward investment attraction procedure, a comprehensive land use planning process, and state-level concrete governance on FDI.
