북한-중국 과학기술협력 네트워크의 구조적 특성과 변화에 대한 연구: 트리플힐릭스 접근을 기반으로

초록

This study aims to examine the changing nature and pattern of North Korea-China collaborations in science and technology by employing a network analysis. Internationally co-authored papers are analyzed to uncover overall trends of scientific collaborations between the two countries over the period of 1997-2019. Using co-authored publication data from the SCIE database of Web of Science Core Collection and SCOPUS databases, this study performs a network analysis based on the triple helix perspective to capture major changes in the structural patterns and characteristics of scientific collaborations in two different time periods. The analytical results reveal that the collaboration network has gradually evolved with considerable increases in research collaborations between universities from both countries since the early 2010s. In recent years, the triple helix model for scientific collaborations of North Korea and China is found to be in transition to a new phase, since it has started to deviate from the previous pattern of their collaborations mostly underlying the political interests.
