문화산업의 경제적 효과 - 수요 및 공급 경로를 통한 정부 재정지출의 파급효과를 중심으로

Abstract

We explore how the economic performances of fiscal support policies for cultural industries might vary by changing the support types of these policies. Using the 2005, 2010, 2011, 2012 Korean Input-Output Tables, we conceptually categorize the various fiscal support policies for cultural industries into three distinct types: (i) offering vouchers for households to boost demands, (ii) subsidizing wages for new employees to reduce production costs of the industry, and (iii) subsidizing wages for current employees to lighten production costs of the industry. Our findings show that the second scenario generates the largest economic impacts on production, value-added, and employment because the newly-employed contributes not only to production, but also to consumption with his or her income. On the other hand, the third scenario generates only a ninth of economic effects created by the second scenario since it fails to contribute to new production. The first scenario places in the middle. These results imply that there is still room to improve the performances of current fiscal support policies for cultural industries.
