오늘날의 과학기술은 국가전체의 경쟁력 강화는 물론, 지역의 산업과 경제를 발전시키고 국가의 균형발전을 도모하는데 있어서 매우 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 지역경제 활성화의 주역인 중소 벤처기업을 육성하고, 지역산업을 체계적으로 발전시키며, 지역주민의 생활편의 향상을 위한 각종 지역개발 사업을 추진함에 있어서 과학기술이 핵심적인 요소이자 중요 수단으로서 기능하고 있기 때문이다. 이에 따라, 각 국가들은 1970년대 이후 지방의 과학기술을 육성하고 지원하기 위한 지방과학기술정책을 지속적으로 수립하여 추진해 나가고 있다. 우리나라의 지방과학기술정책이 실질적으로 수립되고 추진된 것은 1990년대 초반 이후 과학기술이 지역경제 활성화를 위한 유효한 수단으로 인식되기 시작하면서 경제 관련 부처를 중심으로 지역과 연계한 각종 사업들을 추진하면서 부터라고 할 수 있다. 특히 과학기술의 지방화 내지 과학기술 지방분권에 관한 논의와 정책적 노력은 1995년에 도입된 지방자치제도의 본격적인 시행과 함께 이루어졌다고 할 수 있다. 그러나 그 진전과 발전은 아직도 여전히 미흡한 상황이다. 이는 과학기술의 연구개발과 진흥이라는 정책의 특성에 기인하기도 하지만, 지방자치단체 스스로 관련 정책을 수립하고 추진할 수 있는 기반과 여건이 제도적인 측면에나 실제적인 측면에서 매우 취약하였던데 그 원인이 있는 것으로 분석된다. 이 글은 과학기술의 지방분권을 강화하여야 한다는 최근의 사회적 논의와 관련하여 지방과학기술정책의 발전을 위한 방안을 모색하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해, 그동안의 지방과학기술정책 추진현황 및 지역의 과학기술 혁신기반과 역량을 살펴보고, 앞으로 지방 스스로가 지역의 과학기술혁신정책을 수립하고 집행할 수 있는 역량과 기반을 강화하는데 필요한 제도적 과제들을 검토하여 제시하였다.

In the context of an increased demand in universities' expansion of networks between other innovation actors, this research attempts to make a comparison on university-centered SCIE knowledge networks between regions. Using regional comparison, we have looked into these networks in regards to their characteristics, the importance of regional boundaries, and the effect of the regional industrial policy. As a result of this comparative analysis, we discovered that the point universities and research universities hold high centrality in regional knowledge networks, and that the characteristics of regions are reflected into this network. For instance, the Gyeonggi province had a preeminent level of industry-academy relationship, while for Daejeon it was public research institutions and academy, and Gangwon province it was between academy between academy. As a network analysis based on journals above SCIE levels, regional boundaries were not very clear in the network structures. However, within these boundaries, the impact of regional industrial policies were proven to be stronger in the Gang-won province where the academy-academy network was most prominent. The implication of this research outcome is that for regional innovation, government should more actively implement policies that can link academic institutes' knowledge to industry by expanding knowledge networks. In addition, we emphasize on the necessity of a regionally-appropriate policy, rather than a generalized industrial policy. And fundamentally, in regards to innovation, establishing a sound industrial infrastructure for regional development and efforts to link relevant actors are required.

The aim of this article is to examine the role of Gyeonggi Province in the industrial development in the Republic of Korea by taking a case study of the program of the national innovative cluster (NIC). In such program which has been for the purpose of the regional industrial development for non-Seoul metropolitan regions (N-SMRs) since 2018, the total firms' transactions were highly focused upon Gyeonggi Province and other Seoul metropolitan regions (SMRs). Especially, firms' transactions in 5 clusters of the total 14 clusters concentrated on Gyeonggi Province. Within this context, the future direction of this policy program for the regional industrial development and the national balanced development is more focused upon a win-win strategy between the SMR and N-SMRs rather than the dichotomy between them.

The purpose of this article is to reinterpret the existing innovation policy with 'the societal innovation policy' framework. It is looking into characteristics of societal innovation policy and the prospects for socio-technical systems transition and citizen participation are discussed. After the discussion, new interpretation of innovation policy elements will be dealt with lenses of societal innovation policy. It sheds new light on the key elements of innovation policy, such as Innovation policy governance, industrial innovation policy, regional innovation policy, and infrastructure policy and suggests direction of policy improvements from societal innovation policy perspectives. This will be an opportunity to reinterpret the existing innovation policy measures and to approach to science technology innovation policy for system transition with participatory perspective.

This study proposes an integrated use of region and industry as a way to classify firms' innovation activities by type. Existing studies have used the method of determining innovative activities according to the components of the technological regimes and aggregating them by industry classification, but this method cannot fully reflect the heterogeneity within industries in an increasingly sophisticated innovation environment. Therefore, this study divides firms by region and industry and conducts a cluster analysis on the proportion of innovative activities by the components of the technological regimes to derive a total of four innovation types. Using the 2016 Korean Innovation Survey to classify innovation types in the manufacturing industry, we found that innovation activities are concentrated in Seoul, Busan, Incheon, and Chungnam/ Sejong/ Daejeon area, with different deviations by region and industry. The results of the aggregation of industrial innovation activities, weighted by corporate activity by region, show that the level of innovation activity in some manufacturing industries, such as petrochemicals, manufacturing of medical, precision and optical instruments, watches and clocks, is high, but the level of innovation in other sectors within the manufacturing industry is generally low.

New technologies are being created and resulted as new types of fusion complex as the barrier between technology and industries are being broken and convergence is becoming more activated in the global economy of the era of fourth industrial revolution. Korea government is trying to foster innovative technologies for new technologies and new services to prepare for the fourth industrial revolution and gain global competitiveness, but many regulations make it difficult to verify and commercialize them. In response, the Korea government is pushing for the introduction of a regulation-free special zone system in which sandboxes are applied so that new technology and new service-based innovation projects can be freely commercialized through experiment and demonstration. This study aims to examine the limitations of the special zones for regional specialization development applied to the zones that are applied uniformly throughout the country and suggest ways for the deregulation special zone to be fostered as an empirical test bed based on new technologies and as a base for regional innovation.

The purposes of this research are to examine the theoretical background and industrial policy issues with regard to building a Innovation System for encouraging industrial competitiveness and fostering regional industry in Korea. Knowledge has become the driving force of economic growth and the primary source of competitiveness in the world market. So since 1990s, Innovation Systems have been put emphasis on as new industrial development strategy in a knowledge-based economy. It can be understood that Innovation System is composed of National Innovation System(NIS) and Regional Innovation System(RIS) and interrelated the concept of clusters and networks, which are contribute to industry development throughout boosting innovation. As for the Korean industrial policy, when the former centralized policy decision making process became decentralized through the implementation of local autonomy, the role of local or state government in relation to regional industrial promotion intensified. But with the impotance of for fostering strategic industry in the region. new industrial policy issues in Korea are needed as follows; $\circled1$ Building a market-oriented support system for industrial cluster through providing the resource of innovation. $\circled2$ Establishing agency for regional industrial development. $\circled3$ Making a evolutionary vision for broader region including 2 or 3 province, $\circled4$ Fostering strategic industry which is selected in term of specialization and potential of the region. The RIS model for industry development is outlined in this paper but policy initiatives for building a RIS have to be extracted from further case studies.
