Abstract

This paper critically examines research trends on the relationship between technological innovation and economic growth in Korea. There are different views on the role of innovation in economic growth including Exogenous and Endogenous Growth, National Innovation System, Technological Capabilities, Economic Catch-up discourses and so on. According to these theoretical discourses, existing studies about Korea are reviewed in a critical way and then future research work is proposed through such a critical review and reflection.

본고는 기술혁신과 경제성장 간의 관계에 대한 연구동향을 비판적으로 검토한다. 경제성장에서 혁신의 역할에 대한 여러 가지 입장들이 존재하며 이러한 입장들에 따라 그러한 연구동향을 정리한다. 신고전파의 성장론, 국가혁신체제론, 기술역량론, 경제추격론 등의 관점에 따라 한국을 대상으로 한 기술혁신과 경제성장에 관한 국내 외 연구가 본고의 검토대상이다. 이러한 비판적 검토와 성찰을 통해 앞으로의 연구과제들을 제시한다.
