본 연구는 국내 혁신체제론 연구를 진전시키기 위해 혁신체제론의 진화과정 및 주요 논점을 정리한 것이다. 혁신체제론은 신고전학파의 거시경제정책을 극복하기 위해 등장한 국가혁신체제론에서 비롯되었다. 그러나 국가혁신체제론은 분석단위의 부적합, 동태적 분석의 미흡, 제도적 결정론의 한계, 이론적 엄밀성의 부족 등의 다양한 비판에 직면하게 되었다. 이러한 비판들에 대한 대응으로서 혁신체제론 내에서는 기술체제론, 지역혁신체제론, 산업혁신체제론이 등장했다. 기술체제론, 지역혁신체제론, 산업혁신체제론은 제각각 기술 지역 산업으로 분석단위를 다양화하고, 동태적 분석을 모색하고, 제도 외에도 기업 분석을 중시함으로써 국가혁신체제론에 내재된 문제점을 해결하고자 했다. 이 과정에서 국가혁신체제론, 기술체제론, 지역혁신체제론, 산업혁신체제론의 상호보완성이 인정되면서 이들의 논의를 통합화하려는 노력이 전개되고 있다. 다양한 혁신체제론의 등장에도 불구하고 아직도 혁신체제론 비판이 완전히 해소된 것은 아니다. 그러나 다양한 혁신체제론의 상호보완적 발전은 혁신체제론의 이론적 및 정책적 유용성을 확대시켜 나갈수 있을 것이다.

Nowadays the role of region has been increased, as knowledge, science and technology become important in economic development. This paper argues that a system approach is needed to enhance regional S&T capabilities. Under the this approach, we can identify a concept of regional innovation systems as sub-systems of a national innovation system. This paper investigates Korean regional innovation systems based on R&D budget of regional governments. According to this paper, Korean regional governments' R&D investment is very insufficient. There were no co-relationship between regional governments' fiscal autonomy from the central government and their R&D investment. This paper argues that such a poor investment will restrict the future development of Korean regional innovation systems. Therefore, this paper suggests some strategic options for the development of regional innovation systems as follows. First, regional governments should increase their R&D budget. Second, their R&D efforts should be related with their specific industrial sectors. Third, they should target not only to create new promising industrial sectors but also to enhance technological capabilities of existing sectors. Fourth, their target group should be small and medium-sized enterprises. Finally, regional governments should adopt small and incremental approach to improve their innovation systems.

With increasing globalization, a proper policy for global inter-city networking strongly required, which presumes the study on the heterogeneity among regional innovation systems. While surveying the research results of the Evolutionary Economics, 1 stress that regional systems of innovation differ in technological capacities, industrial structures, institutional arrangements and socio-cultural features. 1 make the empirical investigation based on the data of Busan and Hamburg, making clear the regional specificities among regional innovation systems. The results show that regional systems of innovation in Busan and Hamburg are quitely asymmetric. They suggest also the limitation of neo-classical assumption on the ‘homogeneous production function’ and that policy-makers in regions should make the policy for ‘global inter-cities networking’, based on perspectives of regional heterogeneity.

This paper aims at identifying the strategies for strengthening regional innovation systems. This paper is based on the objective evaluation on regional innovation systems by regional government officials who are in charge S&T promotion. This paper has two significances. First, regional government officials as manager on S&T policies, will be able to diagnose exactly their own regional innovation systems. Second, we will be able to get a complete figure on regional S&T culture throughout them. This paper argues that, in order to strengthen regional innovation systems, we must reinforce firms' technological capabilities, create and decentralize public research institutes, and diffuse the culture for appreciating S&T and innovation within region etc.

The aim of paper is to develop an alternative framework for the study of technological innovation systems. In contrast with conventional literature, this analytical framework is designed for entrepreneurs, i.e. actors, at the micro level rather than policy-makers at the meso or macro level. Herein, the entrepreneurial innovation system is conceptually refined by synthesizing knowledge regarding technological innovation and innovation systems. Drawing upon the intrinsic technological identity essential for innovation, the entrepreneurial innovation system is shown to involve three core changes in terms of technology, organization and market, and their couplings within its internal boundary over time. This analytical framework also takes into account the fact that the innovation system is influenced by and copes with the external environment during its evolution. Moreover, the framework of the entrepreneurial innovation system considers the recent trend of sustainable development. The technical and socio-economic characteristics of a nuclear powersystem are studied empirically to articulate an analytical framework that should be very useful for technological innovation in other energy systems by reflecting their unique features.

The 21st century is not only the knowledge-based society but also the unifie era for Korea. It implies that Korea should prepare for the unification, especially in the area of knowledge, science, and technology. Under this background, this paper deals with how we can prepare for the unification of South and North Korea in science and technology (S&T) area. There have been no sufficient theoretical studies in this area. This paper, therefore, argues that regional innovation system, which has been developed since the beginning of the 1990s, could be effectively applied to the S&T cooperation and unification between both Koreas. It argues that regional innovation systems can formulate sectoral innovation systems effectively, which lead to a competent national innovation system. According to this study, South and North Korean regions have complementary sectoral innovation systems that could effectively cooperate with each other. Such S&T cooperation could make a great contribution to the S&T integration between two Koreas in the future. This paper argues, therefore, that S&T cooperation between two Koreas should target the unification of South and North Korean regional innovation systems. This paper names it as the unified national innovation system.

Today the role of information systems directly affects the goals and operations of companies and is being strategic. Most of Information System Departments (ISD), however, have been losing the credibility due to their failure to respond effectively to their counterparts in the rapidly changing environment. The purpose of this research is to propose a theoretical framework which systematically studies the innovation of ISD. It is intended to understand the critical factors which have an effect on each level of ISD innovation process. It is also intended to understand the performance of ISD innovation through the innovation process. Besides, we try to clarify the conceptual difference between IS innovation, Information Technology innovation, and ISD Innovation. As a result, we propose the structural model for ISD innovation research by analyzing the innovation theory and previous IS innovation studies.

This paper presents research linking national culture and innovation. The research identifies how key features of Korean culture, collectivism and hierarchical authoritarianism, affect technological innovation. This perspective casts new light on cultural research that, while generally confirming national culture-innovation ties at the organization level, has had less success accounting for culture barriers to innovation in collectivist nations, especially at the interorganizational level. The data for this study was obtained from interviews and written sources. The paper introduces the concept of the social shaping of technology, with which the influence of culture on technological innovation is analyzed, and highlights the development of EDI systems in the collectivist Korean society. It draws attention to the interorganizational basis of collectivism and authoritarianism in the technology innovation process. Finally, Korean innovation systems are questioned, and some negative effects of the collectivist Korean culture at the interorganizational level are discussed.

The Brazil, Russia, India China and South Africa (BRICS) group has emerged as a collection of large economies which are outside the traditional groups of industrialised "first world" economies and which have altered the global distribution of economic power. The basis of their emergence is a combination of their size and growth rates, and the fact that they lie outside the established centres of global economic power. As such, they have "diversified" the power base of the global economic order. The question which is asked in this paper is whether the phenomenon of the BRICS goes beyond this to mark the start of a possible challenge to the neoliberal orthodoxy which emerged as the globally dominant policy paradigm since the collapse of the Soviet Union. This paper develops and uses a "modes of innovation" approach to explore the potential of the BRICS to constitute a structural rupture in the current globally dominant neoliberal mode of innovation. This question is important since, in the absence of this rupture, the remarkable development trajectory of the BRICS will serve to reinforce the legitimacy of the global orthodoxy. The paper first articulates the modes of innovation concept and then proceeds to locate the BRICS systems of innovation within the current globally dominant mode. On this basis it then provides an appraisal of the possible impact of the BRICS on the evolutionary path of the global system of innovation.

Policy planners in Asia readily covet high technology districts and regional systems of innovation such as Silicon Valley. We examine the law's role, by way of covenants not to compete (競業禁止條項) in the development of Silicon Valley by reviewing the literature from 1999 through 2013. The research suggests that in certain high-tech districts such as Silicon Valley, there are greater gains in the innovation of a region by prohibiting CNCs. While we emphasize CNC law as the main legal determinant to Silicon Valley's success, the application of trade secret law and the inevitable disclosure doctrine are also factors that can aid or restrict the mobility and knowledge spillover of a region. Even with much explored, perspectives are lacking from a regional innovation systems analysis, and more so in the context of Asian nations. To tackle these gaps, three analytical frameworks are presented that entails labor law, law and economics, and law and innovation. And from within the law and innovation framework, research is introduced in the hope that future discussions on Asian regional innovation systems consider the legal foundation of Silicon Valley.
