The role of regional governance modes and system-level agency in evolutionary paths of regional industries
提出区域创新系统的治理模式与系统层面能动性会影响产业演化路径,并基于公共管理强度和制度包容性构建了四种治理模式类型。
In this paper, we posit that there is a relationship between the nature of the nexus comprising organisational- and system-level agency, organisational and regional assets, and the mode of governance of a regional innovation system (RIS), on one hand, and the evolutionary paths in which industries are likely to thrive, on the other. Therefore, we developed a fourfold typology of RIS governance modes based on the strength of public administration and the inclusiveness of the institutional set-up in the region. We argue that a well-developed RIS governance helps companies pursue more radical paths, and ambitious evolutionary paths of industries require vigorous system-level agency.
