台灣、日本、南韓產業科技競爭力之比較探討

A Comparison of Technological Competitiveness between Industries of Taiwan, Japan and South Korea

知識經濟時代裡，科技創新已取代土地、勞動力，甚至資本，成為帶動經濟成長的主要驅動力。一國產業科技創新能力的高低往往決定其國際市場的競爭地位，有鑑於此，日本和南韓近年來積極推動提升產業競爭力的科技政策，面對激烈的科技競賽，台灣應有所警惕，本研究由產業科技的投入面、產出面和擴散面來比較台灣、日本和南韓在科技競爭力上的相對優、劣勢，進而探討我國產業科技競爭力不足之處，最後提出結論與科技政策方向建議。

In the era of the knowledge-based economy, technological innovation has replaced traditional productive factors, including land, labor, and capital, as the engine of economic growth. The international competitiveness of a country depends on its industry's innovative ability. With that in mind, Japan and South Korea have spent great efforts to raise their technological competitiveness in industry in recent years, raising the level of competition in industrial technology to an extent that Taiwan needs to be aware of and respond to. This study compares the technological competitiveness of industries in Taiwan, Japan and South Korea, with the aim of identifying their relative strengths and weaknesses, then examines the areas in which Taiwan is at a competitive disadvantage, and concludes with suggestions on the direction of Taiwan’s technology policy.
