본 연구는 세계화와 지식기반경제로의 이행이 심화되면서 국가 간 및 지역 간 글로벌 인재 유치를 위한 경쟁이 심화되는 현상에 주목한다. 글로벌 스케일에서 인재의 분포와 공간적 변동을 고찰하여 인재의 글로벌 지리를 고찰하였다. 또한 글로벌 인재 유치를 위한 국가별 전략도 고찰하여 주요 시책과 메커니즘을 분석하였다. 끝으로 본 논문은 글로벌 경쟁력 제고를 위한 우리나라 대도시권의 발전전략에서 인재의 중요성을 간과하고 있다는 한계를 지적하고, 이를 극복할 수 있는 장소의 질 제고의 중요성을 강조하는 전략을 제시하였다.
This paper deals with the deepening global competition of talent between regions as well as states in the process of globalization and the transition toward knowledge-base economies. This study figures out the global geography of talent by examining the distribution and spatial changes of the talent at the global scale. It also analyzes key policies and mechanisms by investigating various countries’ policies to attract global talents. Finally this paper points out the limitation of current city-regional development strategies for global competition in that it lacks the consideration of the importance of the talent. In response to that, we propose the strategy to focus on the quality of place to attract the global talent for the city-region develoment.
