State Structure, Societal Organisation, and Technology Policy: A Comparison of Three Asian Countries
比较马来西亚、新加坡和泰国在面临相似创新挑战时为何采取不同的技术政策,从社会政治制度互动角度解释政策差异。
While Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand have faced comparable innovation challenges over the past decades, they have responded to these challenges with divergent policy choices. More specifically, they have varied in the extent to which core technology policy instruments are integrated and state efforts to tackle innovation challenges are coupled with other socio-economic reforms and development strategies. To explain the variation, this article explores the ways in which socio-political institutions have interacted differently to shape the resolution of governance problems inherent in the making of innovation strategies and generate divergent technology policy processes and outcomes.
