International Comparative Study on the Growth of Strategic Emerging Industries

Abstract

As the core carrier of the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial reform, strategic emerging industries have become an important starting point for countries to seize the initiative in reshaping the global economic pattern. This paper selects four representative countries, the United States, Germany, Japan and China, and systematically compares the factual characteristics, antecedents, process mechanism and evolution path of the growth of strategic emerging industries. The research finds that: first, at the level of industrial layout, the four countries have formed a "multi habitat" development pattern in the United States, a "high-tech" development pattern in Germany, a "refined" development pattern in Japan and a "coordinated" development pattern in China based on their respective economic bases, resource endowments and development needs. Second, at the level of antecedents, digital infrastructure construction and fiscal and tax incentive policies constitute the key supporting environment for industrial growth. Among them, the construction of digital infrastructure shows the differentiation path of Chinese government leading, American market leading, government participation, German government leading and Japanese social traction; The fiscal and tax incentive policies are respectively reflected in China's emphasis on resource allocation and national strategic coordination, the United States' emphasis on the combination of pre support and post incentive, Germany's preference for long-term stable support, and Japan's focus on green industry guidance. Third, at the process mechanism level, innovation driven development and international development constitute the dual driving forces of industrial growth. In terms of innovation drive, China has formed an integrated innovation model, the United States has focused on disruptive innovation, Germany has promoted incremental innovation relying on the government, industry, University and research system, and Japan has driven open innovation with the "government, industry, University" integration mechanism; In terms of international development, China is characterized by a rising industrial chain driven by both policy and market. The United States relies on technological advantages to dominate global standards and industrial chain layout, Germany relies on industrial infrastructure to promote the deep integration of industrial chains, and Japan relies on government enterprise collaboration and multi-level policy support to achieve global expansion. Through international comparative research, this paper reveals the multi-path mode and system adaptation logic of the growth of strategic emerging industries, and provides a systematic analysis framework for understanding the development law of emerging industries in different countries.
