The purpose of this study is to understand abuse of older adults at long-term care (LTC) facilities and to suggest implications in Korea. Elder abuse at LTC facilities increased rapidly after the introduction of the Long-Term Care Act. The characteristics of abuse at LTC facilities are different from those at home in terms of abused older adults and abusers, types of abuse, and obligated reporters. The most vulnerable older adults are women and those with dementia. It is necessary to considering residential environments and customizable strategies to prevent and intervene in abuse. However, the analytic results of four levels of prevention have revealed that policies and programs for abuses exist, but they are not specifically suitable for abused older adults in a facility. Increasing abuse toward older adults cannot be avoided as society sees increases in the number of residents who are older and dependent. Social policies of the guardian system, the ombudsman program, and management of latent cases are suggested. Strengthening the functions of the Elder Protection Agency(EPA) is also suggested.

The article discusses Economic Partnership Agreements, which have become a tool for transforming trade relations between the European Union and the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States (ACP), including the countries of Sub‑Saharan Africa. The agreements combine trade and development into a single whole, and as envisaged by the European Union, they are to become an instrument for achieving the development goals of the ACP states. Their common characteristic is free access to markets under the principle of reciprocity. Given the development asymmetry between the European Union and the ACP states, there arises a question of whether EPAs will be an instrument serving their development, and this article is an attempt at providing an answer to this question.

The paper also addressed the issue of talks, arrangements and finalization of work on the Economic Partnership Agreement between the EU and Japan.

Ważnym zagadnieniem w skali makroekonomicznej wydaje się przede wszystkim współpraca gospodarcza między największymi potęgami świata, do których należą zarówno Unia Europejska, jak i Japonia. Rozwijający się region Azji z dotychczasowym liderem – Japonią jest ważny dla krajów UE. Starają się one wzmocnić i rozszerzyć tę współpracę oraz dążą do podpisania strategicznych umów. Współpraca gospodarcza oparta jest w dużej mierze o handel – pod tym względem Japonia wydaje się być istotnym partnerem. Artykuł pokazuje wymianę handlową pomiędzy Unią Europejską a Japonią. W pracy podjęto również kwestię rozmów, uzgodnień i finalizacji prac dotyczących umowy o partnerstwie gospodarczym między UE a Japonią. Celem opracowania jest wskazanie możliwości UE w zakresie rozszerzenia wymiany handlowej z partnerem stosunków międzynarodowych, jakim jest Japonia.
