The government role in the technology development of China’s automobile industry

Abstract

Abstract: Based on equilibrium and evolutionary theory, the role playing by the government in the technology development of China’s automobile industry is demonstrated from a view of technology chain. It is argued that the technology development of China’s automobile industry is from product architecture technology, then to core component technology, finally to frontier research and development. Government plays different roles in the three parts of technology chain. It is a promoter for frontier research and development innovation, a supporter for core component technology innovation, and a guide for architecture technology innovation in turn. Different roles of government lead to different policy measures, which mainly focus on correcting "market failure" under equilibrium frame in the part of frontier research and development, correcting "system failure" under evolutionary frame in the part of architecture technology, and paying attention to correct both of failures in the part of core component technology.

Key words: automobile industry, industry technology development, technology innovation policy, government role
