Research On Evaluation And Promotion Of The Effectiveness Of Social Think Tanks In China

Social think tank is an important part of think tanks with Chinese characteristics,and it is also an important supplement and assistant to the official think tank. As a self-financing, independent and neutral research institute, social think tank is playing an increasingly important role. However, compared with official think tank, there are some common problems with social think tank, including low influence and recognition, small organization, poor research level and weak innovation. The above problems with the social think tank can be attributed to the problems of effectiveness,Effectiveness is an important factor in the competitiveness and viability of social think tank. In order to enhance the competitiveness and survivability, social think tank should first improve its effectiveness. Therefore, the study of the effectiveness of social think tank can not only make up for the shortcomings of the existing theory on think tank research, but also for the effective development of China's social think tank.First, through the theory research and analysis, the relevant concepts are defined.And through the form of interviews and questionnaires on the effectiveness of social think tank factors, this study sorts out and summarizes the key internal influencing factors of social think tank, including management, influence, diversification and innovation. Secondly, the four key factors are refined and decomposed to sixteen specific and measurable indicators. The management includes strategic management,organization structure management, regulation management and finance management. The influence includes senior leader influence, academic influence,media influence and international influence. The diversification includes diversification of service, diversification of finance sources, diversification of performance assessment and diversification of risk control. The innovation includes information level, intellectual property, personnel knowledge level and innovation environment. Then the study constructs the evaluation index system of social think tank using four first-level indicators and sixteen second-level indicators.Then, this study uses the analytic hierarchy process to determine the weight of each index of the effectiveness evaluation index system of social think tank in China,the weight of the influence is close to the sum of the weights of other three indicators.After the weight is determined, this study evaluates the effectiveness of the social think tank in China by using the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method, and draws the specific evaluation score. Through the evaluation score we can see that the effectiveness of social think tank in China is weak, located between the general and better, and there is great room for improvement.Finally, combined with the evaluation results, this study gives concrete strategies and suggestions to enhance the effectiveness of social think tank from four aspects including management, influence, diversification and innovation. In addition,because the government is also one of the key influencing factors of the effectiveness of social think tank in China, the study also gives concrete strategies and suggestions from the aspect of government.The innovations of the study include:1 .There is no relevant research on the effectiveness of social think tank in China. In the study, the validity of social think tank is taken as the research content,which expands the content and direction of the research of social think tank.2.This study uses the methods of literature study, questionnaire, analytic hierarchy process and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation to construct the evaluation index system of the effectiveness of social think tank in China creatively. The evaluation of the effectiveness of social think tank has actual value.3.This study evaluates the effectiveness of social think tank in China by using the constructiveness evaluation index system, and gives the concrete evaluation result.Based on the evaluation result, this study gives the suggestions on how to improve the effectiveness of social think tank in China from the aspects of management,influence, diversification, innovation and the government. The result of the research is innovative and practical.
