동산 선의취득법 개정을 위한 시론(試論)

김서기 전북대학교 부설법학연구소 2011 法學硏究 Vol.32 No.-

The good faith acquisition of movables is the legal system to give a public confidence to the possession of transferor. As a result, the possession of transferor is required as one of the prerequisites of the good faith acquisition. By the way, this prerequisite does not seem to accord with rapidly growing world of e-trade. In addition, supposedly, as the Act on the Security of Movable,Credit, etc was enacted last year, the role of the possession of transferor as a prerequisite of the good faith acquisition will decrease, while the role of duty of care of transferee will increase. Considering the purpose of the good-faith-acquisition system is to increase the interests of trade, among other things, economic analysis is necessary. On the whole, economic analysis writers argue that a broad good faith acquisition is more efficient than a strict owner protection. Accordingly, for these reasons, I'd maintain that the good faith of acquirer should not be linked to the possession of transferor. That is, the possession of transferor as a prerequisite of the good faith acquisition should be eliminated. In both cases of lost/stolen goods and entrusted goods, the owner has the opportunity to make a choice based on his intention. Therefore, it seems to be wrong to differentiate between lost/stolen and entrusted goods by the choice-based-on-intention argumentation. Considering the purpose of the good-faith-acquisition system is to increase the interests of trade, it seems that it is not justified to draw a distinction between lost/stolen and entrusted goods. Of course, it may be necessary to exclude the good faith acquisition with regard to stolen goods, in order to prevent crime. For the more rights that the owner has against a acquirer of stolen goods, the lower may be the price at which a thief can sell the stolen goods, thus reducing the incentive for theft. If so, at least in the case of lost goods, it seems to be desirable in terms of the increase of interests of trade to treat both of lost and entrusted goods equally. 동산 선의취득은 점유에 공신력을 인정하는 제도이므로 결국 동산 선의취득이 성립하기 위해서는 양도인이 점유하고 있을 것이 필요하게 된다. 그런데 이러한 성립요건은 현재 그 규모가 수백 조에 달하며 성장 속도 또한 매우 빠르고 지속적인 전자거래와는 맞지 않는 것처럼 보인다. 또한 「동산·채권 등의 담보에 관한 법률」 제정에 따라 ‘양도인의 점유’를 기초로 한 동산 선의취득법의 기능은 축소되고 ‘양수인의 주의의무위반’을 기초로 한 동산 선의취득법의 기능이 확대될 것으로 예상된다. 한편 거래안전 확보 즉 거래이익이 동산 선의취득제도의 취지임을고려할 때 경제적 효율성 분석은 무엇보다 필수적이라고 할 것이다. 그런데 경제분석가들은 일반적으로 동산 선의취득을 폭 넓게 허용하는 것이 보다 효율적이라고 한다. 따라서 ‘양도인의 점유’라는 성립요건이 전자거래, 「동산·채권 등의 담보에 관한 법률」의 제정에 따라 그 기능이 심각하게 축소되는 상황을 고려하고, 동산 선의취득을 보다 폭 넓게 허용하기 위하여서는 취득자의 선의를 상대방의 점유와 단절하는 결단이 필요하다고 생각된다. 즉 ‘양도인의 점유’는 더 이상 선의취득의 성립요건이어서는 안 된다는 것이다. 한편 점유위탁물, 점유이탈물 공히 원소유자에게 의사에 기초한 선택의 기회가 있다. 따라서 도품, 유실물은 원소유자의 의사에 기초하지 아니하고 점유를 이탈한 동산으로서 따라서 원소유자가 추급하여 반환을 청구할 수 있게 해야 한다는 사고는 합리적 근거가 없으며, 선의취득제도의 취지가 거래안전의 확보에 있음을 고려한다면, 양자를 달리 취급해야할 이유가없다고 생각된다. 물론 범죄를 예방하기 위해서는 도품의 경우 선의취득을 배제하는 것이 필요할 수 있다. 원소유자를 더 많이 보호하면 할수록, 도둑이 해당 동산을 팔수 있는 가격은 더 내려갈 것이고, 따라서 도둑질할 유인을 줄여 줄 것이기때문이다. 그렇다면 적어도 유실물의 경우만이라도 점유위탁물과 동일하게 취급하는 것이 거래이익을 위해서는 보다 바람직한 것으로 판단된다.

Is Good Act Rooted in Good Will? -Matteo Ricci’s Debate with the Chinese Scholar

이종우 한국기독교사회윤리학회 2022 기독교사회윤리 Vol.53 No.-

Is a good act rooted in a good will? Matteo Ricci and a Chinese scholar had a debate on that topic. When humans always have a good will, they can do good, according to Ricci. As humans were created by the Lord of Heaven, the supreme good, their nature is good. But man’s first ancestor, Adam, committed a sin, an original sin, so humans are born with original sin. According to that, when humans have a good will, they will be able to do good. By contrast, if humans have an evil will, they will be able to do evil. Ricci interpreted so even yi(意) in The Great Learning (大學), one of the Confucian classics. This interpretation was based on Aquinas but that of Ricci is not implied in the Confucian classic. By contrast, the Chinese scholar argued that a good act is regardless of a good will. According to the scholar, a good act emerges from a good mind, not a good will. 선행의 뿌리는 선의지인가? 마테오 리치와 중국선비는 이 주제에 대하여 논쟁을 벌였다. 마테오 리치에 따르면 인간은 항상 선의지를 가졌을 때 선행을 할 수 있다. 인간은 천주에 의하여 창조되었으므로 인간의 본성은 선하다. 그러나최초 인간인 아담은 원죄를 저질렀고, 이 때문에 인간도 선천적으로 원죄가 있다. 이 때문에 인간은 선의지를 가졌을 때 선행을 할 수 있다. 그러나 만약 인간이 악의지를 가졌다면 그들은 악행을 할 수 있다. 마테오 리치는 『대학』의 意(의)도 의지로 해석하였다. 이러한 마테오 리치의 해석은 토마스 아퀴나스의 윤리에 근거한 것이다. 이와 달리 중국선비는 선행이 선의지와 무관하다고 주장하였다. 그는 선행은 선한 마음에서 나올 뿐, 선한 의지에서 나온다고 여기지 않았다.

환경상품 무역자유화에 관한 글로벌 논의 동향과 시사점

심영규 동아대학교 법학연구소 2025 國際去來와 法 Vol.- No.48

환경상품ㆍ서비스 무역자유화에 관한 논의는 이미 2000년대 초부터 OECD, APEC, WTO 등 다자협의체를 통해 ‘무역과 환경’ 분야의 주요 의제로 다루어져 왔다. 이들 논의를 통해 무역자유화 대상 환경상품 목록이 구체적으로 작성되고, 일부 환경상품에 적용되는 관세율 인하에 합의하는 등 일정 부분 성과를 거두는 듯하였다. 그러나 2016년 12월 WTO 「환경상품협정」(EGA) 체결을 위한 시도가 결국 무산된 이후 일부 추가적인 논의가 진행되긴 하였으나 환경상품ㆍ서비스 무역자유화를 위한 다자협의체 논의는 지지부진한 상태가 이어지고 있다. 이처럼 다자협의체를 통한 환경상품ㆍ서비스 무역자유화에 관한 논의가 지체되어 생긴 공백을 최근 양자/다자 RTAㆍFTA가 활발히 메꾸는 양상이 전개되고 있다. 지난 2005년경부터 환경상품의 무역자유화 확대에 관한 구체적인 조항이 RTAㆍFTA에 등장한 이래 환경상품ㆍ서비스 무역자유화 관련 조항을 포함하는 RTAㆍFTA 사례는 전 세계적으로 꾸준히 증가하고 있다. 이러한 증가추세는 WTO 「환경상품협정」(EGA) 체결이 무산된 이후 근래 들어 더욱 강화되고 있다. 영국-뉴질랜드 FTA, 싱가포르-호주 FTA, 코스타리카-아이스란드-뉴질랜드-스위스 ACCTS 등 특히 최근에 체결된 일부 양자/다자 RTAㆍFTA의 경우 무역자유화 대상 환경상품 목록을 특정하여 제시하는 사례도 늘고 있다. 현재 환경상품ㆍ서비스 무역자유화에 관한 글로벌 논의는 새로운 형태의 RTAㆍFTA를 통해 이른바 ‘무역(통상)-환경 연계’ 이슈의 핵심 의제의 하나로 다루어지고 있다. 더 나아가 기후변화 대응을 위한 ‘기후-통상 연계’ 정책의 주요 실천과제의 하나로 인식되어 구체적인 의무의 형태로 합의가 도출되기도 한다. 본 논문은 이러한 상황에 대한 인식을 바탕으로, WTO 「환경상품협정」(EGA) 체결 시도를 전후로 하여 진행된 환경상품 무역자유화에 관한 글로벌 논의 동향에 대해서 알아보았다. 또한 WTO 등 다자협의체를 통해 구속력있는 의무를 구체적으로 도출하기 위한 시도가 실패한 이후 그 공백을 일부 메꿔가고 있는 양자/다자 RTAㆍFTA 현황을 살펴봄으로써 환경상품 무역자유화에 관한 글로벌 논의의 전망과 주요 시사점을 도출하고자 하였다. RTAㆍFTA의 적극적 추진을 통한 통상강국을 지향하고 있는 우리나라 입장에서는 개별 RTAㆍFTA를 통해 환경상품 무역자유화를 효율적으로 추진하는 한편, 이러한 축적된 경험을 바탕으로 다자협의체에서의 논의를 적극적으로 주도하는 양면 접근 전략을 구사하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 생각된다. The discussions on the trade liberalization of environmental goods and services have been a major agenda in the field of “trade and environment” through multilateral negotiation forums such as the OECD, APEC, and WTO since the early 2000s. These discussions led to the drafting of a specific list of environmental goods subject to trade liberalization and some achievements were made, such as agreements on tariff reductions for certain environmental goods. However, since the attempt to conclude the WTO Environmental Goods Agreement (EGA) failed in December 2016, the discussions on the trade liberalization of environmental goods and services through multilateral negotiation forums have been practically stalled. As a result of the delay in discussions on the trade liberalization of environmental goods and services through multilateral negotiation forums, bilateral or multilateral RTAs/FTAs have been partially filling the gap. Since around 2005, specific provisions on expanding the trade liberalization of environmental goods have appeared in some RTAsㆍFTAs, and the number of cases including provisions related to the trade liberalization of environmental goods and services in RTAs/FTAs has been steadily increasing worldwide. In particular, recently concluded bilateral or multilateral RTAs/FTAs, such as the UK-New Zealand FTA, Singapore-Australia FTA, and Costa Rica-Iceland-New Zealand-Switzerland ACCTS, have seen an increase in the number of cases where specific lists of environmental goods subject to trade liberalization are presented. Currently, global discussions on the trade liberalization of environmental goods and services are being addressed as a key agenda in the so-called “trade-environment linkage” issue through new forms of RTAs/FTAs. Furthermore, they are recognized as a major implementation task of “climate-trade linkage” policies to respond to climate change, and specific obligations to tackle climate challenges are being agreed upon. Based on this awareness, this paper examines the trends in global discussions on the trade liberalization of environmental goods before and after the attempt to conclude the WTO Environmental Goods Agreement (EGA). It also explores the current status of bilateral or multilateral RTAs/FTAs that are partially filling the gap left by the failure to derive binding obligations through multilateral negotiation forums such as the WTO. By doing so, it aims to derive prospects and key implications for global discussions on the trade liberalization of environmental goods. From the perspective of Korea, which aims to become a trade powerhouse through the active promotion of RTAs/FTAs, it is desirable to take a dual approach strategy, on the one hand, efficiently promoting the trade liberalization of environmental goods through individual RTA/FTA; on the other hand, actively leading discussions in multilateral negotiation forums based on these accumulated experiences.

북한 상품이미지에 나타난 제국주의적 대상성 연구 -『조선상품 2018』을 중심으로-

이무경 ( Lee Moo-kyoung ) 한민족문화학회 2020 한민족문화연구 Vol.71 No.-

Korean Goods, published by North Korea every year since 2018 to explore overseas markets, is a comprehensive bulletin on goods produced in North Korea. It runs color images and advertisements of goods, mostly daily necessities. In North Korea, a closed Juche socialist country, commercial advertisements were restricted, but, it is observed, in the age of Kim Jung Eun, become more widely employed. In North Korea, images of goods connote not only economic meanings but also ideological aspects. Accordingly the ideology of 'strong and prosperous nation', pursued in the Kim's age, has been represented, through diverse media including posters, as images of goods, mostly daily necessities, plentifully piled up, and repeatedly revealed accomplishments of the top leader and nationalist contents. An unprecedented intensification of reports of Kim's on-the-spot guidance in the field of industrial art, dealing with goods images, can be analyzed as related to representation of that ideology through images of goods. When images of goods in Korean Goods are analyzed with the frame of imperialistic objecthood, presented by W. T. Mitchell, a visual culture scholar, we can weigh the potential of communication between North Korea and the outside world and its changeability. When it comes to the potential of communication with the outside world, it can be explained that the objecthood of idol relates to its difficulty; that of fetish relates its easiness; and the totem relates corresponds to its neutrality. While the images of goods in Korean Goods show the idol objecthood related to the Juche socialist ideology, such as 'strong and prosperous nation', 'my country first', the idolization of the top leader, we can also find, unlike in the past, the fetish objecthood in exaggerated advertisements to sell goods, competitions between brands of similar goods and so on. It can be analyzed as a sign that North Korea, despite its limit in the Juche socialist system, is getting prepared for a wider communication with the outside world.

칸트 최고선 이론에서 의지의 규정근거 문제

손홍국 ( Son Hong Gook ) 한국칸트학회 2021 칸트연구 Vol.47 No.-

The highest good concept is defined as the perfect coincidence of virtue and happiness. But Kant throw a doubt on such coincidence. Conversely, he states that “we ought to strive to promote the highest good”. This study treats these two points in his context. He criticizes the highest good concepts of the Epicurean and the Stoic. The two opinions understand the highest good concept as duty that can be attained in this world. Accordingly, Kant limits the idea in reference to perfect coincidence of virtue and happiness. However, because again, the practical idea postulates the possibility of such coincidence, here, Kant’s highest good concept is distinguished. The first is the highest derived good, and the other is the highest original good. The former is possible only in this world, and the latter is only possible only in the intelligible world. This important distinction by Kant provides a proper explanation of the problem of determining the ground of pure will. Namely, the highest good concept must be understood as duty from the standpoint of the highest derived good, but not as duty from the standpoint of the highest original good.

특정물매수인의 하자보수청구권

김봉수(Bong-Su Kim) 한국비교사법학회 2010 비교사법 Vol.17 No.1

When the goods that the specific goods seller provided have defects, according th toe Korean civil code §580, the buyer can have the right for the avoidance of contract and the rights to claim for the damages due to the defect, while he/she cannot have the right to repair. But when the seller delivers the goods that do not conform to the contract, it is the non-performance, because he has a duty to deliver goods that have no defect. In this regard, when such a non-performance occurs, the buyer's right to require the seller's performance must be considered.And also the right of the buyer to repair needs to be allowded, considering the systematical point of view of civil law by the principle of priority of require performance and with the idea of favoring contracts, the fact that the repair is the remedy which considers the interests of contract parties, the law economical point of view, and the fact that theseller’s liability for non-conformity goods are adjusted to today’s reality. The legal basis of buyer's right to repair is Art. 581(2) of the Korean Civil Code, which provides the generic goods buyer’s right to require delivery of substitute goods. The buyer is able to avoid the contract when it may not be accomplished dueto the defect of the goods. In this case, the possibility to cure the defect of the goods must be considered, with the consideration of whether the contract may be accomplished. Accordingly when the defect of the goods is severe, and may not possible for the seller to cure it, the buyer may be able to avoid the contract. However, when the defect may be repaired by the seller, although it is severe, or when it is only minor, the seller may not be able to avoid the contract. In this context, the competition between the right to avoid the contract and the right to require performance may not be allowed. However, the issue may occur – exceptavoidance of contract, the buyer may choose her remedies? The answer is positive, because the Art. 581 ⑴, ⑵ of the Korean Civil Code provides the buyer choose her remedies and also because the Art. 667 ⑴, ⑵ of the Korean Civil Code provides that the person who ordered the work, may claim damages in lieu of, or together with, rectification of the defect. If the buyer may require the seller to perform concerning non-conformity goods, there must be defect of the goods. The defect may be judged according to the parties’ agreement. If there is no such agreement, the defect may be considered by ordinary usage of use of the goods. The seller’s performance concerning non-conformity goods occurs from seller’s non-performance. In this regard, the seller has to pay for the cost of later performance. In addition, the place of the seller’s performance may be the place where the goods are located. However, the buyer’s right to require the seller’s performance concerning non-conformity goods may not be possible due to impossibility, extremely high costs, or inconvenience. In these cases, the seller may refuse his later performance.

인식도 분석을 통한 향토상품 개발방향에 관한 연구

함병은 ( Byong Eun Ham ) 한국식품유통학회 2006 식품유통연구 Vol.23 No.1

Under the enforcement of week 5 simultaneous service, the demand of sightseeing industry is increasing by geometric progression. The local self-governing groups are developing multi policies to visit their native place. Especially they think that the grafting regional development of sightseeing industry is desirable direction most. One of the most important elements in the grafting is how to develop and sell the area sightseeing goods. I think that the representative area sightseeing goods is the native place goods. The native place goods is the area goods which made to sell. The native place goods is classified with native place foodstuffs(Chonan`s walnut cake etc.), native local foods(Samcheok`s squid Sundae etc.), native place speciality(Echeon`s china etc.) and native place agriculture and marine products(Cheju`s mandarin etc.) Today is a time that consumers are in high position. Goods must be changed in preference degree of consumers. Even goods has good quality, consumers look away, it loses the existence value of goods and it is regarded as commodity. So in this research, it is investigated and analyzed how to develop the native place goods as leading part of area sightseeing industry from the position of the tourists. This research analyzed the general preference degree of tourists on the native place goods. It investigated the consideration between characteristic and preference of tourists. It presented the development direction of the native place goods through the general preference and consideration of tourists.

부정경쟁방지법 제2조 제1호 (자)목이 규정한 상품형태의 요건

김창권 사법발전재단 2017 사법 Vol.1 No.39

Article 2 subparag. 1 item (i) of the Unfair Competition Prevention and Trade Secret Protection Act (hereinafter the “Unfair Competition Prevention Act”) provides for the protection of shape of goods as the subject matter of protection against unfair competitive act, even when it falls short of what is otherwise required for protection, such as design registration. Under said provision, petition for injunction against counterfeiting of a shape of goods and damage compensation for counterfeits are recognized. The purpose of said provision is to offer an additional layer of protection against counterfeiting of a shape of goods as a type of unfair competitive act, which was only eligible for limited protection under the existing structure of intellectual property law. In so doing, said provision aims to prevent any unfair competition by means of free-riding on prior developers’ endeavors, while incentivizing new development of goods. At the same time, said provision puts in place a mechanism to ensure that protection of the shape of goods does not unduly restrain market competition, by excluding from the scope of protection the shape ordinarily featured in the same types of goods and the shape of goods for which three years have passed from the date of its completion. Said provision protecting the shape of goods under item (i) was introduced upon the amendment to the Unfair Competition Prevention Act by Act No. 7095 of Jan. 20, 2004. It appears that the standard of determination in practice and precedents on the requirements for the applicability of said provision have yet to be accumulated. Supreme Court precedent on this point tends to be particularly rare. Although in Supreme Court Order 2006Ma342 Dated October 17, 2008, the Court explained about the meaning of the shape of goods under said provision, the Order pertained to the requirements for a container or packaging of goods to constitute a shape of goods. In the subject case, by contrast, the question presented is whether an instantly manufactured ice cream product constitutes a shape of goods. The significance of this case is that it specifically delineates the requirements for constituting a shape of goods by: (a) requiring a fixed form, as well as a unique form enabling the perception of goods by the appearance alone, in order to be eligible for protection as a shape of goods under the Unfair Competition Prevention Act; and (b) determining that protection as a shape of goods is unavailable in the absence of a consistently fixed form across the goods, even when there is identity of idea constituting the shape of goods, distinctive form, or function. 부정경쟁방지 및 영업비밀보호에 관한 법률(이하 ‘부정경쟁방지법’이라 한다) 제2조 제1호 (자)목은 상품의 형태를 부정경쟁행위의 보호대상으로 규정하여 이를 모방하는 행위에 대한 금지청구와 모방으로 인한 손해배상을 인정함으로써 디자인등록 등의 보호요건을 갖추지 못한 것이라도 상품의 형태로서 보호될 수 있음을 규정하고 있다. 위 조항은 기존의 지적재산권법 체계하에서 보호에 한계가 있었던 상품형태를 그대로 모방하는 행위를 부정경쟁행위의 한 유형으로 추가하여 보호함으로써 선행개발자의 노력에 무임승차하여 불공정한 경쟁을 하는 것을 막고 새로운 상품개발에 대한 인센티브를 부여하는 것을 목적으로 하는데 이와 동시에 동종의 상품이 통상적으로 가지는 형태나 완성된 때로부터 3년이 지난 상품형태를 보호의 대상에서 제외함으로써 상품형태의 보호가 시장에서의 경쟁을 과도하게 제한하지 않도록 하는 장치도 마련하고 있다. (자)목의 상품형태 보호규정은 부정경쟁방지법이 2004. 1. 20. 법률 제7095호로 개정되면서 도입된 것으로서 아직까지 위 규정이 적용되기 위한 요건 등에 관하여 실무상 충분한 판단 기준이나 판례가 축적되어 있지는 아니한 것으로 보이고, 특히 이에 관한 대법원의 판시도 아주 드문 편이다. 위 조항이 규정한 상품형태의 의미에 관하여 설시한 대법원 2008. 10. 17.자 2006마342 결정이 있는데 이는 상품의 용기·포장이 상품형태에 해당하기 위한 요건에 관한 것이었다. 이 사건은 즉석에서 제조되는 아이스크림 제품이 상품형태에 해당하는지가 문제가 된 사안으로서 부정경쟁방지법상 상품형태로 보호받기 위하여 상품의 외관 자체로 특정 상품임을 인식할 수 있는 형태적 특이성이 있을 뿐 아니라 정형화된 것이어야 한다는 요건을 제시하였고, 나아가 상품들 사이에 일관된 정형성이 없다면 상품의 형태를 구성하는 아이디어, 특징적 모양이나 기능 등의 동일성이 있다고 하더라도 이는 상품형태로서 보호되지 않는다고 판단함으로써 상품형태에 해당하기 위한 요건을 구체적으로 제시한 판례로서 의미가 크다.

특허물품 병행수입에 있어서 내구재와 비내구재의 비교

신창환 경희대학교 법학연구소 2022 경희법학 Vol.57 No.3

It is very important matter whether we should choose between the ‘National Exhaustion’ which prohibits the parallel importation of patented goods and the ‘International Exhaustion’ which permits the parallel importation. The author generally supports the ‘International Exhaustion’, because once the patent holder exercises his rights and receives the remuneration, then such rights should be exhausted irrespective of the location of the first exercise of such right. However, in order to cope with complicated phenomena of the international trade, proper mixture of ‘International Exhaustion’ and ‘National Exhaustion’ would be a better option in light of the each characteristics of the patented goods in question. In this respect, the comparison of the economic notion of ‘Durable Goods’ and ‘Non-Durable Goods’ seems to be meaningful in dealing with exhaustion of patented goods and parallel importation. Patent exhaustion should be applied to the durable goods, which may be expected to be traded in the second hand market afterwards. On the contrary, non-durable goods is expected to consumed by the purchasers themselves. If the patent exhaustion should be applied to non-durable goods in international context, then windfall may be granted to the commercial scale, opportunistic third party who seeks the arbitrage in the course of trade of such non-durable goods. Thus, national exhaustion might be applied to only non-durable goods. To institutionalize above idea, it is proposed to amend the relevant regulation of the Korea Customs Service to the effect to permit the parallel importation of patented durable goods. 특허물품의 병행수입을 불허하는 국가소진을 채택할지, 허용하는 국제소진을 채택할지의 문제는 특허권자에 대한 적절한 보상, 적정한 특허물품 유통구조의 유지, 소비자의 정당한 이익 보호 등을 위하여 매우 중요한 문제이다. 이 글은, 특허권자는 외국에서 자신의 (해외)특허권을 이미 한 번 행사하였다면 특허권이 체화된 해당 특허물품에 대해서는 수입국을 포함한 전세계에서도 특허권이 소진되었다고 보는 법리가 적절하다는 견지에서 전반적으로는 국제소진을 지지한다. 그런데 특허물품의 무역을 둘러싼 복잡한 국제적 현상에 적절히 대응하기 위하여는 일률적으로 국제소진으로 정리하기보다는, 특허물품의 특성에 따라 국내소진과 국제소진의 사이에서 적절히 제도의 혼합을 추구하는 방안이 더 현실적인 방안이 될 수 있을 것으로 본다. 이와 관련하여, 이 글은 경제학적인 개념인 내구재와 비내구재의 비교에 주목한다. 병행수입과 관련된 특허권 소진은 본질적으로 중고거래의 가능성이 예정되어 있는 내구재에 대하여 인정하는 것이 타당하다. 반면 비내구재는 소비자의 최종 소비가 예정되어 있는 물품으로서, 여기에 특허권의 국제소진을 적용하면 권리자의 이중이득을 방지하겠다는 취지인 소진제도에 의하여 오히려 신품을 상업적 규모로 거래하여 차익거래를 노리는 유통업자에게 이익이 갈 수 있다. 이 같은 점을 종합적으로 고려하여 특허물품의 병행수입과 관련하여 전반적으로는 국제소진을 원칙으로 하는 가운데, 비내구재에 한정하여 국내소진을 적용하는 방안을 제안한다. 위와 같은 고려사항을 현실적으로 제도화하기 위하여 내구재 특허물품의 병행수입을 허용하는 내용으로 관세청 “수출입통관 사무처리 고시”를 개정할 것을 제안한다.
