철도산업 경쟁에 관한 연구

Abstract

In 2004, railways separated construction and operation for the purpose of eliminating accumulated deficits and operating efficiency. However, the width of the deficit continued to increase. Although the company wanted to reduce deficits and promote efficiency in operations through competition by establishing SRs, there are many pros and cons of the competition. The opinion in favor of competition is that excessive labor costs, welfare benefits, inefficiency in operations and lax management must be shifted from monopoly to competition. In other words, competition increases efforts to reduce debt, and service improvements. However, the opinion that judges that the cause of the debt accumulation is the government's policy failure points to greater harm from competition. In other words, wrong competition can undermine public character. Wrong competition can cause inefficiency by overlapping investments. The dualized control of routes can also pose a threat to safety. In particular, Current competition is not competition. There is a view that there is a monopoly on the region. They claim that they gave special favors to SR. This study was analyzed from the standpoint of the Korail. However, in future studies, we also want to analyze it from the standpoint of SR. Through this, we intend to reach an objective conclusion. According to the analysis results of this study, current competitive system begins with the diagnosis of the wrong cause of the cumulative liability. There is an exclusive aspect of SR for areas where demand is high rather than competition.
