本稿の目的は、台湾の半導体産業の技術力と産業革新、並びに日台の産業連携の変化を、ビジネス発展の観点のみならず、地域同盟と地経学的観点から考察することである。 『2030半導体の地政学戦略物資を支配するのは誰か』(太田2021)は、地政学的な観点から東アジアの未来を論じているように、2020年以降強い半導体産業を持つ日本、台湾、韓国の半導体産業の特徴と現状を把握すること、そして東アジアの3地域の半導体産業の地政学的現状と今後の戦略は重要な課題である。 とりわけ、TSMC(台湾積体電路製造)の日本進出を巡る日台の産業連携が一段と緊密化している中、本研究では、半導体産業という地経学的重要産業において、文献の調査と実際に多数の日本企業への訪問調査を行うことを通じて、日台連携の重要性を提示した上、従来型の日台半導体産業の連携との違いや連携パターの進化を考察し、日本自動車産業の発展を支える役割を究明した。 The purpose of this paper is to examine the technological capabilities and industrial innovation of Taiwan’s semiconductor industry, as well as the changes in Japan-Taiwan industrial cooperation, not only from the perspective of business development, but also from the perspective of regional alliances and geo-economics. As“Geopolitics of Semiconductors 2030: Who Will Control Strategic Materials?”(Ota 2021) discusses the future of East Asia from a geopolitical perspective, it is important to understand the characteristics and current situation of the semiconductor industries in Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea, which have strong semiconductor industries after 2020, as well as the current geopolitical situation and future strategies of the semiconductor industries in the three regions of East Asia. In particular, to illustrate the fact that industrial cooperation between Japan and Taiwan has become even closer with TSMC’s entry into Japan, we presented the importance of Japan-Taiwan cooperation in the geo-economically important semiconductor industry through a literature survey and actual visits to a large number of Japanese companies in this study. We also considered the differences between traditional Japan-Taiwan semiconductor industry cooperation and the evolution of cooperation patterns, and investigated the role of Japan-Taiwan cooperation in supporting the development of the Japanese automobile industry. |
