The Research For Competitive Advantage From High And New Technology Industry Cluster And Cultivation Of Social Capital

Theory circles generally think the local optimum environment can drive the new high-tech industry to develop. However, science and technology parks in China have not brought such result; the new industrializing road, which was proposed on the 16th national congress of the Communist Party of China, demands priority to develop the information industry? Permeating the new and high technology through traditional industries, relying on the new high-tech industry will affect directly the new industrializing process. Therefore, it is significant for us to search for the invalid reason of science and technology parks in our country.At first, the thesis has reviewed the development course of the new high-tech industry of China and the achievement, summing up the present industry cluster existing problem of new and high-tech in our country in terms of social capital, probing into its consequence, explaining cluster law of the new high-tech industry. The author assume the governments of science and technology parks have not followed the cluster law, causing the industry clusters of new and high-tech to be mostly on the sprout stage, seldom junior stage, none of senior stage. Then, the competition advantage of industry group of the new and high-tech of the junior stage and senior stage are analysed in terms of economics. The competitive advantage in the junior stage is an advantage of the cost, deriving from the incensement in valid demand and supply of high technology products, economy of external scale and external scope, the specializing division of labour on the basis of specialization and the decreasement of transaction cost; but the advantage of the cost is difficult to maintain. The industry cluster competition advantage of the new and high-tach of senior stage is an innovative advantage, stemming from the innovation network of area, which is unable to imitate, existing for a long time.Secondly, it is demonstrated that social capital determines competition advantage of industry cluster of the new and high-tech. Social capital includes trust, institution and network. Institution is composed of credit law and informal institution, comprised by views of credit, start-up and equality as well as reputation mechanism. Social capital usually makes economic subject who set up on the basis of institution to believe on each other, contributing to industry cluster development by bud to primary stage. It can still make economic subject belief shift, which ensure industry cluster to evolve to advance stage from primary stage. Meanwhile, social capital can economize transaction cost with cooperative economic subjects in cluster, bring up the environment that information flowsfreely, leading to encouragement the innovation of talent in cluster effectively, improvement of enterprise's innovative efficiency in cluster notably. The author constructs one new trro-stage-model, quotes the development of xinzhu industrial parks so as to prove the function of social capital.Finally, we should cultivate social capital in the procession of development of the new and high-tech industry cluster. For example, We Should construct industry system that can lead to industry cluster, having a foothold somewhere and supporting the middle and small business, amplifying and improving the science and technology intermediary organizations; Excellent institutional environment should be created; The individual credit information network and enterprise credit information network should be established in the high and new technology industry cluster; Start-up culture should be formed, innovator should be cultivated.
