  • Studying Technology Governance in the View of Sociology of Translation
  • 2016 Vol. (11): 1608-1614.
  • Abstract ( )
  • Sociology of translation uses "practice construction" instead of "social construction", emphasizes to understand the governance of technology in the process of practice by the last formation of society, and also has manifested the difference from Bloor in the understanding of society. By putting forward sociology of translation, Latour points out that the successful implementation of technology governance by science policymakers is because that they are able to form a strong heterogeneous type agent network, and the network construction success lies in they translate the relevant actors’ interests and win their support. By the case analysis on the anthrax vaccine technology invented by Pasteur as a science policymaker, we can better recognize technology governance in sociology of translation through "society", and provide beneficial references for people to make better technology governance.
  • Technology Collaborative Governance Framework and Mechanism -----Based on the Value?Structure?Process?Relationship Perspective
  • 2016 Vol. (11): 1615-1624.
  • Abstract ( )
  • The rapid development of technology and governance is the only way to achieve sustainable development to meet the need of energy, the environment and the challenges of climate change; however, technology governance is short of a clear conceptual framework. Based on the theory of collaborative governance and the technology research framework of "structure - process - relationship" , this framework implies the rear situation of “rear” factors, especially under the background of China, rear value brings about the impact and distortion to the technology policy implementation. Therefore, this paper puts forward "value - structure - process - relationship" technology collaborative governance framework and mechanism to explain how to adjust and shape the control technology form between the structure of collaborative governance body and the role and relationship of multiple subjects participate in the governance network in order to improve the acceptable degree of technology policy. The study results suggest that technology collaborative governance framework shall include scientific and technological personnel, association for science and technology, government, enterprises, colleges and universities, the financial sector, mediation and other social organizations and the public, and foreign department eight main body; Technical collaborative governance mechanism shall include accountability, participation mechanism, evaluation mechanism, communication mechanism and sharing mechanism. Research results suggest technical framework of collaborative governance and mechanism can apply and replicate the similar government governance issues to provide reference and experience for like ecological environment of collaborative governance, urbanization coordinated management of our country.
  • Whether the government R&D fundings promote technological progress: Evidence from 66 countries and regions
  • 2016 Vol. (11): 1625-1636.
  • Abstract ( )
  • Using panel data of 66 typical countries in 1996-2013, this paper empirically studies the effect of government R&D fundings to technological progress. The results show that the effect of government R&D fundings to technology progress is different among countries. The regional estimation results show that the technology progress effect of government R&D fundings is affected by many factors. Among them, The effect is significantly positive in high income countries, significantly negative in nations of low income; Samely, The effect is positive in nations of high urbanization level, but government R&D fundings can not promote technological progress in the low level of urbanization countries; the coefficient of government R&D fundings in densely populated areas is significantly positive, while the coefficients are all significantly negative in the middle population area and sparsely populated district , and the coefficient of sparsely populated areas is higher than middle population area.

  • Sovereign Patent Funds: Models, Effects and Path Supplementation
  • 2016 Vol. (11): 1655-1622.
  • Abstract ( )
  • Japan, South Korea and France have set up sovereign patent funds in recent years, indicating that the competition models of patent market is in a new stage of development. Patent sovereign funds are of great significance in supporting the domestic industry to participate in international competition, but it may evolve into potential trade defense measures and stir a new round of global patent race. In practice, the Chinese government has also started a preliminary probe into the patent sovereign funds. How to improve market operations of sovereign patent funds, there are a few ways as follows: Firstly, optimizing patent market system; secondly, strengthening cooperation between the government and social capital; third, improving the patent prevention capacity against litigation risk; fourth, boosting up cooperations and exchanges of sovereign patent funds.
  • Research on the Pathway of Entrepreneurial Social Network on Re- entrepreneurship Performance under Different Entrepreneurship Types and Entrepreneurial Fields
  • 2016 Vol. (11): 1680-1688.
  • Abstract ( )
  • The success of entrepreneurial activity and entrepreneurs has a direct bearing to the use of their social network. Using 230 survey sample of Re-entrepreneurship, from two aspects of individual and team social networks, this paper constructs the theoretical model of entrepreneurship social networks, entrepreneurship learning, entrepreneurship dynamic capabilities, resource integration and re-entrepreneurship performance, and analyzes the pathway of entrepreneurship social network to re-entrepreneurship under different entrepreneurship type and field. The research results show that a simple entrepreneurship failure has a negative effect on re-entrepreneurial performance, only after entrepreneurship learning, it can better promote re-entrepreneurial performance; there are three pathways of entrepreneurship social networks to re-entrepreneurial performance, among which entrepreneurship learning, entrepreneurship dynamic capabilities and resource integration play a mediating role. Under different entrepreneurship type and field, individual and team social networks have different degree of influence on re-entrepreneurship performance, and the pathway features and effects of the influence also have significant differences. Through the above analysis, not only can rich entrepreneurs to social network behavior theory knowledge, and to improve the business performance to provide realistic guiding significance.
  • The mechanism of management knowledge transfer in the internet environment——A case study on oTMS’s transportation management platform
  • 2016 Vol. (11): 1689-1699.

  • The Efficacy of Initial Cooperation Basis and Further Cooperation Process on Technology Learning Effect:Based on a Mediated Moderation Model
  • 2016 Vol. (11): 1708-1715.
  • Abstract ( )
  • This paper aims to explore the influencing mechanism of initial cooperation basis and further cooperation process on technology learning effect through international cooperative production by a mediated moderation model using 119 sample data, with further cooperation process as the moderator and perceived difficulty and pressure as mediator. Moreover, Johnson-Neyman method is employed to examine the significance interval of contingency effect that further cooperation process moderates difficulty and pressure as well as technology learning effect. Results show that further cooperation process is positively related to technology learning effect, while difficulty and pressure displays no mediating role. Further cooperation process negatively moderates the initial cooperation basis-difficulty pressure nexus and the initial cooperation basis-technology learning nexus, which is mediated by difficulty and pressure. Hence, focus should be put on the interaction effect of initial cooperation basis and further cooperation process and the active efficacy of difficulty and pressure on technology learning effect of high end manufacturing.

  • 2016 Vol. (11): 1716-1724.
  • Abstract ( )
  • This article proposes three questions with regard to enterprises’ position in innovation system need to solve. The first is the Chinese context of enterprises-centered innovation system, the next two are theoretical content and policy mechanism about this issue under the marketization and globalization processes. We argue that, the enterprises rather than governments should be the center of innovation under the marketization progress; Chinese enterprises should become the contributors of global value create and the rulers of global value distribution; transforming the functions of government is the key point of constructing an enterprises-centered innovation system, and Chinese government should create a innovation-friendly environment through market mechanism and reduce the intervention on enterprise’s innovation activities directly.

  • The Transfer of Patent Right, Characteristics of Spatial Network and the Way for Regional Collaborative Innovation in the Area of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei
  • 2016 Vol. (11): 1736-1743.
  • Abstract ( )
  • The paper, from the perspective of the transfer of patent right, demonstrates the patent right transfer behaviors is not only individual behavior through the two-way transfer of data by the patent 2002-2014 among 13 cities in Beijing、Tianjin and Hebei. In fact, the formation of collaborative innovation network in the middle area is promoted by the spatial structure and the synergic relationship of the patent transfer network. And it has fixed the cooperative role and innovation position of different cities in the network. The results show that: (1) Collaborative innovation network consisting of 13 cities has a Low density and good accessibility but is hierarchical. (2) From the view of space structure of network, synergy innovation network shows a center - half - inclusive - fragile composite structure. (3) In the view of network relations, patent transfer relationship shows—the net outflow, the net inflow, the broker, the main benefit—four plate relationship characteristics. The relationship coordination mechanism of the first plate is output - interaction - absorption. The relationship coordination mechanism of the second plate is reception. The relationship coordination mechanism of the third plate is reception and return - interaction - transfer. The relationship coordination mechanism of the fourth plate is reception and return. (4) Geographical Proximity, Economic Disparity and Administrative Grade are important explanatory factors, which can interpret the inherent structural characteristics and correlation of the patent transfer relationship network in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
