[Paper Keywords] <"Technical Innovation of>>, technological Innovation philosophy, philosophy
[Abstract] domestic scholars mainly from Economics, management, sociology and other disciplines to study the technical Innovation. Professor Li Zhaoyou book <"Technical Innovation of a philosophy. Perspective of technological Innovation>>, standing philosophical perspective, Perspective from the new technological innovation, technological innovation and created a philosophical system of domestic precedent, and other Researchers from the discourse, including the scope of the method complete set of paradigm. I am sure, in the guidance of Professor Lee and his work, there will be more and more scholars stand to fully grasp the philosophical perspective of technological innovation, technological innovation philosophy is also scheduled to be made properly developed.


Technological Innovation as an independent field of study began in 1912, Schumpeter published <"Economic Development Theory>" was Written. In the book, Schumpeter demonstrated innovation is the core force of Economic Development is to establish a new production function, to an unprecedented production conditions on the factors of production and the introduction of new combinations of production systems. He also based on innovation of interest, profits, Economic cycle, and other basic concepts of Economics, the basic phenomenon was re-defined. As the United States economy in the 20th century, the rapid Development of the 50's not the traditional capital, labor factors to explain, people began to believe that technological progress to Economic growth, coupled with public investment in Research and Development of significance have been demonstrated to enhance the awareness of Technology innovation and Economic significance of the consensus. then, technological innovation theory has become the focus of attention. In today's technological innovation become the main driving force of modern economic growth, because the science and Technology are "powerful lever of history" and " play a catalytic role in history, revolutionary force. "It is because of technological innovation and economic Development in modern society plays an important role, as well as people awareness of the importance of technological innovation has become stronger, with regard to Technology innovative Research is increasingly becoming a hot topic in academic Research, it has become a matter of Economics, management, sociology and other Research disciplines.

First, several major Technology innovation research perspective
Our theoretical study of technological innovation is relatively late. In 1973-1974, the Department of Economics, Peking University, internal publication <<Foreign Economic Dynamics>> on a special article describes Schumpeter's innovation theory .1981 Chinese Social Sciences Press the <<foreign Economics Seminar> "was Written, once again introduced the innovative theory of Schumpeter and Schumpeter after the development of innovation theory. After this, some scholars began to introduce the results of innovative research abroad, If translated and published <"Modern foreign Selected Papers of Economics) (Series 10) (Commercial Press, 1986), Schumpeter's <" Economic Development Theory> "(Commercial Press, 1990)," <foreign Technology innovation Foreign Science and Technology Research Series Report >>(<< policy AND MANAGEMENT "> 1 of 1991) and so on.

From an economic perspective, technological innovation is in the enterprise "to establish a new production function", that is, the technical conditions or the level of corporate change, and the result of this change will bring economic benefits, and therefore the result of technological innovation First, the direct impact on costs, prices and profits. Our economic studies of technological innovation for the late start in the late 70s of last century until the early 80s to the Department of Economics, Peking University economist Professor Li Yining, represented only gradually from introduce Western technological innovation model to form their own unique theory of technological innovation. As technology innovation theory itself is from the Western economic theory, so you economist for the technological innovation in the study of this economic phenomenon, it is bound or more or less use of Western economics, formed their own distinctive theory of technological innovation. This includes the definition of concepts, technical innovation and process analysis, outcome measures, and so a series of analysis and research.

From the perspective of management, technological innovation is the profit potential entrepreneurs to seize market opportunities, re-combination of production conditions, elements and organizations in order to establish more efficiency, more efficient and lower costs of production activities, production and management system process. current technology innovation management research has two main categories: First, from a theoretical point of view to study the mechanism of technological innovation such as research, policy research, process research, environmental research, etc., and second, to study from an empirical point of view technological innovation, mainly through case studies of successful enterprises, providing support for the theory basis for the reference model for other businesses.

From a sociological perspective, technological innovation is the main innovation is the enterprise from the start and practice to successfully market development and improve market competitiveness as the goal-oriented, the introduction of new technology ideas as a starting point, through innovative research and decisions development, technology transfer and technology diffusion and other sectors, resulting in a high level of technology and re-combination of factors of production and the socialization and social integration, and ultimately to change the main innovation of the economic status and social status of the purpose of social action .

Second, "" Technical Innovation of>>: from the philosophical perspective of technological innovation is a useful attempt
Professor Li Zhaoyou book <"Technical innovation of a technological innovation in philosophy) (hereinafter referred to as <" Technical Innovation of>>) (Liaoning People's Publishing House published in December 2004) is from the philosophical perspective of a technological innovation good try. The book is philosophy of technological innovation in recent years to think of a sum, to expand the narrative is divided into five chapters. The first chapter is the introduction, we summarize the technical innovation of multi-perspective, that of technological innovation on contemporary society The meaning and significance of philosophy of technology innovation. The authors note that, due to technological innovation theory itself from Western economic theory, and because technological innovation has a strong practical, technical innovation and research which is economics, management sociological aspects of science and less to start, and philosophical aspects of the present study is at the edge of technological innovation. However, his philosophy of technological innovation is optimistic about the rise because of technological innovation is indeed include a sense of interest in philosophical questions. from a philosophical perspective reflection of technological innovation, is to vary the technical innovation of the practice of universal problems encountered by rational thinking, from the provisions of revealing the nature of technological innovation, revealing the basic technology innovation characteristics, reveal the impact of technological innovation and restrict the activities of the fundamental factors in order to practice for technology innovation and its theoretical research methodology guidance.

The second chapter is the essence of technological innovation, the author Schumpeter, Marx, and Jiang Zemin's classic exposition of technological innovation expounds the characteristics of technological innovation, technological invention and reveals the difference between technological innovation and technological innovation is given philosophical nature. To better understand the nature of technological innovation, technological innovation of the basic characteristics of be summed up as: (1) historic (2) uncertainty (3) creative (4) process of (5) synergies. technological invention and innovation for the differences, the authors suggest that Schumpeter was first on the "invention" and "innovation" were distinguished Japanese scholars to borrow the words of Johnson Valley is the formal, technical innovation is not technological invention, precisely, it is through technology the innovation (ie innovation), technology itself without a revolutionary change. In conclusion, a variety of academic research for technological innovation, the philosophical point of view from the grasp of the nature of technological innovation: (1) technological innovation is the subject participation special process of social practice. (2) Technological innovation is the subject of innovation and creative practice of cognitive interaction between innovation and the dynamic process (3) Technological innovation is the main object of activity of innovation process.

The third chapter is on technological innovation activities, the authors explore the technical innovation from the innovation decision-making, to innovative research and development, production and technological innovation, market innovation, management innovation activity characteristics, indicating that the nonlinear mechanism of technological innovation and collaboration the various stages of technological innovation the need for the role. The reality of technology innovation process, that is, as the main innovation actors by some intermediary role in the behavior of the object as the main innovation of innovation and innovation of the object leaving the object at the same time the process of change: Innovation of the main characteristics of the innovation object , nature and law into their own knowledge and skills essential power to complete the "naturalization of persons", and innovative people in accordance with the purpose of the object and the object-oriented nature of the power process is modified to fit the results of the main innovation needed to become "personification of nature." authors point out that technological innovation as a decision making body is the face of the Real innovative entrepreneurs to choose the object, the program of activities to form the process of technological innovation, innovation, R & D technology is invisible to the physical products from the process is an innovative decision-making aspects of the program's first materialized, production technology, product innovation is from one technology to the process of multi-product technology, marking the technological innovation from the technology and practice of cognitive processes into a combination of technical and economic knowledge and practice process and market innovation is the innovative products from innovative products to the process, that is, consumer satisfaction with their innovative products into innovative products, management innovation is the nurturing positive values of the process. The author analyzes the various stages of technological innovation activities After the characteristics of that technological innovation is not a completely linear process, on the contrary, innovation is often considered an uncertain process, and there are all kinds of feedback loop at work. Links to free Chapter Download Center http://www.hi138.com paper is on technological innovation, the author analyzes the ability of technology innovation system structure staff, proposed to increase the company's research and development capabilities, design capabilities, manufacturing capacity, marketing capability and innovation management capabilities of specific measures. The fifth chapter is on the conditions of technological innovation, promote technology innovation of the external environment or conditions, such as system innovation, intellectual property rights system is established, the establishment of national innovation system, a sound system of research and development and design and cultural innovation. Due to space limitations, not one by one in detail in this introduction.

In general, the philosophy of standing height, from the New Perspective of technological innovation activities, while informative in his discussion with the topic of academic achievements and references are collected as much as possible, both in space and time covered For the audience in terms of, "" Technical Innovation of>> provides an understanding of academic information technology innovation opportunity. read the book, readers will feel their unique research perspective, innovative content, a wealth of information, a huge information the amount of thought-provoking insights, although the interpretation from the perspective of philosophy of technology innovation, thoughtful readers may vary, but it is certain that, "" Technical Innovation of>> does give us an interpretation of technological innovation activities All eyes treated scholars will no doubt have a profound impact.

Third, "" Technical Innovation of>> and the rise of philosophy of technology innovation
Philosophy of technology (technological innovation philosophy is one of them) has always been a relatively new branch of philosophy. Technology late into the Western philosophy. Be traced, which Western philosophy, "theory" approach on. "Philosophy of a science "A History of Aristotle, Socrates, has been mainly theoretical study activities, while the practice is not seriously. technological innovation has always been seen as lack of knowledge of the practice, which was considered not worth Philosophy. to this day, even if some people consider the tremendous impact of modern technology, but also that this effect mainly from the use of modern science, modern technology project is seen as "applied science" on the technical and philosophical reflection of technological innovation is usually is the philosophy of science ancillary products. Thus, while technology (and technology innovation) and human at the same time produce, or even long history of human is it to identify the (stone, iron, etc.), technology and innovation on the historical development but also have a huge impact, But the technology and technological innovation has always been the core of philosophical thought did not enter. But Professor Xia Baohua that in technological innovation, a large number exist, although the urgent need to address the problems of economics and management. However, in technological innovation, but also includes thinking through to the bottom to solve the philosophical problem. He listed eight sets of philosophical issues of technological innovation, including: the nature of technological innovation on the issue, the issue object on technological innovation, on technological innovation activities, the technological innovation on the issue, the question on the motivation of technological innovation, technological innovation and knowledge on the issue, the conditions on technology innovation issues, issues on technology innovations. He also proposed to address such questions need to philosophical knowledge, viewpoints and methods, but not short-term can be completely solved. To this end, he called philosophy of science community should focus on the philosophy of technology innovation in order to "text-oriented," "Reality" and "self-oriented" and "Three a face "as the basis for the development of a philosophy of technological innovation efforts. the rise of technological innovation philosophy, in essence, reflects the philosophy of technological innovation on the impact of the development. We can not expect from the most common philosophy or" meta-philosophy "the development of derived from technological innovation philosophy, but from technological innovation research and practice issues raised in the philosophy of technological innovation leads to the same, nor is it a philosophy of technological innovation research needs to shift, but the philosophical shift required technological innovation. This philosophical concerns to show the changing times, as the essence of the features of the zeitgeist.

Can be said that Professor Li Zhaoyou book <"Technical Innovation of>> philosophy of technological innovation is a positive response to challenge with a bold attempt, and has made an unexpected success. Their future studies and works of the greatest success is creating a domestic technology philosophy of innovation system of precedent and other researchers from the words, the scope of the method, including a set of research paradigm. Prior to this, from a philosophical perspective on the study of technological innovation, has been in a fragmented state of being trivial, people's views and opinions are not the same, let alone a sound research system, which is the technological innovation of philosophy as a discipline to establish the reason for the delay. such as the scope for research purposes, Professor Li Zhaoyou pointed out to The current study from a philosophical perspective of technological innovation, at least you can do the following work: the view from the main body of technological innovation, focusing on subject-object relations from the perspective of technological innovation process, from the epistemological perspective, focusing on technology innovation and the accumulation of knowledge, access to and technological innovation ability, improve research from the perspective of value theory, focusing on the value of technological innovation dimension of technological innovation in the practice of this value creation, but also detailed analysis of innovative features of the different stages of value creation, from the dialectic point of view to study the technological innovation system with others, such as innovation, knowledge innovation, interaction, technological innovation to expand the scope of the environmental factors, from the perspective of history, of technological innovation to promote social and economic, political, and cultural development of the technological innovation coordinates on the history, explore the historic technological innovation, from the philosophical level to predict the future trend of technological innovation, and so on.

Philosophy is the essence of spirit of the times, of the Philosophy of vitality depends on its degree of contact with reality, depending on whether it is helpful to analyze the reality of the contemporary economic and social development issues. Philosophy of technological innovation, on the one hand, to further deepen the Philosophy of Technology the connotation and extension, rich in technical philosophy in theory, but also to find a real philosophy of technology mediation, to realizing the practical significance Philosophy of Technology. On the other hand, philosophy of technology innovation, but also for other fields of technology innovative research to provide guidance. stand in the perspective of philosophy, philosophy of technological innovation, technological innovation also reflects the impact of the development of philosophy, reflecting the philosophy of "technological innovation needed to" such a fundamental issue. technology Philosophy of Innovation, in theory, promote the development of new disciplines of philosophy, but also for philosophical research out of the ivory tower to find a satisfactory way. can be sure, in the "" Technical Innovation of>> create a paradigm to guide research , more and more attention to technology innovation research scholars will no longer be confined to the original disciplinary research perspectives, but try to stand on the height to fully grasp the philosophy of technological innovation, technological innovation and philosophy are bound to become a "has a great the future of the discipline.
