Breaking the existing regional technological regime with effective policy-making: A case study on New-energy Vehicle Manufacturing in Jilin Province

摘要

This article contributes to the policy-making of regional sector by studying into a specific case of New-energy Vehicle Manufacturing in Jilin Province. During the forty years ever since energy crisis stroke this planet in 1970s, many countries and regions have been searching for ways of altering traditional energy into new energy, namely changing the existing technological regime in some certain regions. The objectives of the research are to utilize Bergek et al. (2008)'s policy-designing framework into China's empirical practice and attempt to carry out effective suggestions to the policy-making process. To investigate this, empirical investigations was taken into New-energy Vehicle Manufacturing in Jilin Province and a network is constructed. Results imply that there are some inducement mechanisms as well as blocking mechanisms in the sectoral innovation system in the region. Thus five aspects of policy issues suggested are addressed in this research based on the mechanisms. It is concluded that policy-designing framework done by Bergek et al. is an efficient policy-making tool for regional sectoral innovation system. The case study used in this article could provide references for policy-making process of New-energy Vehicle Manufacturing in Jilin Province.
