The development of human society is realized through the innovation of technology and system,which is aimed at promoting the substitution of artificial capital to natural resources.As one of the important factors to promote the progress of human society,from the whole development of human society,can be said to be from agricultural technology to industrial technology,from labor-intensive to capital intensive technology,from visible to invisible technology in different stages of social development have to adapt the different specific technological progress.China's development has long been ahead of the world.Joseph Needham,mark Elvin had technical innovation Chinese before fourteenth Century there had been a lot of attention on fourteenth Century,can be said to be a turning point in the development of social China.Chinese traditional society is a predominantly agricultural society,the Southern Song Dynasty on the occasion of the Chinese agricultural technology intensive and meticulous farming has reached its peak,the technological innovation has reached a peak,access to relevant literature we can find that the technology innovation is more than small and low investment in technological innovation.Since then,if China wants to have greater technological breakthroughs,in accordance with the normal law,that is,like the western industrial revolution,technological innovation,you need to have a higher investment.Considering the above problems,this paper tries to analyze the technology innovation of Chinese after fourteenth Century,and in order to facilitate the research,specific to the China traditional society and modern society meeting in Qing Dynasty as the research object,the technology innovation of this period were compared in the west.Found before 1750 technology innovation in the west at the same level in the number,then there is the great divergence in the west,and the technological innovation of this period showed different characteristics,Western technology innovation more showing the basic characteristics,high efficiency,and China compared appeared characteristics of skill and luxury,we classified the technology into the technological innovation of production and non-production technology innovative.Through the comparison of the figure and the standard,it is found that there are two kinds of technical innovation in China and Western countries.In view of the technological innovation and the western industrial revolution "has the characteristics of high investment,the social Chinese different groups of technological innovation,also is the preference technology needs are analyzed,the crowd divided into productive and non-productive population groups.Corresponding to the different distribution of social wealth is a reasonable estimate.Finally,it is found that the productive population of China has productive technical preference,but there is no technological innovation capability,but not the productive population has no productive technical preference,but it has the ability of technological innovation.Therefore,the demand of social income distribution and technology preference dislocation,caused the failure to Chinese West Industrial Revolution,on the contrary some structural characteristics of technological innovation,led to the development of modern western in shunt.
