Abstract

Science, technology and innovation policy (STI policy) is a result of the interactions between the social issues and academic research. Understanding the interactions of the STI policy between the social issues and academic research can throw some light on designing better policies and enhancing the social value of academic research. Thus, this paper explores the interactions of the STI policy between the social issues and academic research using the qualitative content analysis of major newspapers and journal articles in Korea. We have three major findings. First, on the one hand, academic research rose after uprising changes in the STI policy issues in the society. Second, on the other hand, social issues on STI policy were influenced by academic research reflecting the fundamental changes in the Korean innovation system and the nature of technology. Third, there are strong policy demands regarding the role of the STI policy for society and for traditional economic domains, but relevant research is scarce up to now. These findings contribute to uncovering the potential policy domains and agendas for policy makers and researchers.

사회에서 논의되는 과학기술혁신정책 이슈와 학술영역에서의 이론적 논의는 상호작용한다. 둘 사이의 상호작용을 이해하는 것은 보다 나은 정책을 제안하고 학술연구의 사회적 가치를 높이고자 하는 노력에 중요한 시사점을 제공해 줄 수 있다. 이런 배경아래 본 논문은 한국에서의 과학기술혁신정책 이슈와 학술연구 사이의 상호작용을 탐색하고자 주요 일간지와 학술지에 대한 질적내용분석을 수행했다. 연구를 통해 우리는 세 가지를 확인할 수 있었다. 첫째, 사회에서 단기간에 등장한 과학기술혁신정책 이슈를 대상으로 하는 연구들이 학술영역에서 뒤이어 등장했다. 둘째, 오랜 시간에 걸쳐 한국사회와 기술 하부구조에서 진행되어온 혁신시스템의 변화를 관찰하여 개념화 시킨 학술연구들이 과학기술혁신정책 이슈형성에 직간접적으로 반영됐다. 셋째, 과학기술의 사회적 역할과 전통 경제학 영역에서 다루어진 주제에 대해 현장에서의 과학기술혁신정책 연구수요가 존재하지만 아직 많은 연구가 이루어지지는 못하고 있다. 세 가지 연구결과는 정책입안자들이 한국에 필요한 정책과제를 발굴하고 연구자들이 새로운 연구대상을 확인하는 과정에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.
