Triple Helix in South Korea:
A longitudinal perspective
Asso. Prof. Han Woo PARKDepartment of Media & CommunicationYeungNam University214-1 Dae-dong, Gyeongsan-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do 712-749Republic of [email protected]@hotmail.com http://www.hanpark.net http://english-webometrics.yu.ac.kr http://asia-triplehelix.org

Knowledge-based innovation
• There are probably three ways to measure knowledge-based innovation system in terms of networked communication
- Journal articles: Traditional knowledge indicator; Scientometrics
- Patent registration: Innovation indicator; Technometrics
- Web mentions and hyperlinks: Digital (proxy) indicator; Webometrics
Knowledge-based systemness
• A surprising growth of SCI publications with a Korean address
• Increasing Korea’s SCI journals: 79 SCI SCI, SCI-E, SSCI, A&HCI journals published by Korean universities, GRIs, and scholarly associations
• National programs to facilitate the internationalization of research: BK21, WCU, WCI
Korea’s portfolio becomes strong?
• The answer is both yes and no
• YES
- e.g., Research evaluation and scholarly practice become internationalized and national R&D budget is growing
- However, YES part is not the focus of this presentation
Critical points and frustrating aspects
• Only three scientists working in Korean institutions were included in the 2008 list of ISI’s Highly Cited Researchers
• Korean SCI journals are being neglected by domestic/international scientists as a reference journal
- These journals function more like publication places, neither research channels nor information sources
Networked innovation system
• A knowledge-based innovation can no longer be attributed to single nodes in a society
• New technologies enable individual and institutional actors to collaborate in new modes
• Is Korea national R&D system strong in terms of networkedness?
Gov’t policy and TH
• The networked knowledge infrastructure can be measured in terms of a Triple-Helix of University-Industry-Government relations; L. Leydesdorff
• Does Korea governmental policy facilitate the development of cooperation among individual/institutional actors comprising of national research system?
Government Characteristics of R&D programs related to the TH indicators
Park, Jung-Hee(1970-1979)
Government’s strong push to run governmental institutes and joint research between universities and public organizations
Chun, Doo-Hwan
(1980-1987)
Merger and acquisition among government-sponsored research institutes; e.g., the integration of the KAIS (Korea Advanced Institute of Science) university and the KIST (Korea Institute of Science and Technology) into the KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology)
Roh, Tae-Woo(1988-1992)
The gradual opening of research organizations in both private and public sectors; e.g., KIST became independent from KAIST in 1989
Kim, Young-Sam
(1993-1997)
Dominance of governmental agencies from early 1990 to 1997 when Korea started to be subject to International Monetary Fund (IMF) conditions
Kim, Dae-Jung(1998-2002)
BK21 project started in 1999 to increase the research capacity of universities through large central government subsidies, thus decreasing UIG joint research
Roh, Moo-Hyun(2003-2007)
Continual promotion of the BK21 and internationalization of R&D, particularly in the academic sector
Characteristics of R&D programs according to government
In response to structural problems coordinating the national research and development (R&D) administration, President Lee Myung-Bak (2008-present) formulated a grand strategy for reforming the Korean R&D system by reorganizing governmental agencies: the new government launched the
Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (MEST) and the Ministry of Knowledge Economy (MKE).
While MEST is intended to play a role as key coordinator for incorporating the human resources of education, science and technology for the purpose of national development, MKE has a mission in fostering knowledge-based innovation capacities across the country
The effectiveness of government intervention, however, can not be taken for granted. The systems can be expected to have resilience in following their own institutional logic in the case of academia and to be driven by market forces in the case of industry.

Have changes in government research policies affected longitudinal changes?
First, there is the reduction of uncertainty among academic, public, and industrial research actors in the Korean publication system from 1970 to 1990.
Second, the mutual information among the three TH agencies (Tuig) is relatively stable during the 1990s but begins to decrease over the last ten years. The trend line shows that the TH dynamics of UIG relations have varied considerably; this variation generally accords with changes in Korean government research policies.

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the API-based webometrics tool created for the Korean search engine Naver
This non-commercial software is designed to collect large amounts of data automatically and can easily distinguish between different types of information on the web, which was impossible before.

Rationale for the Naver
• “Republic of Naver” (Kim & Sohn, 2007)
• “Korea’s Naver is now the world’s 5th search service provider, behind Google, Yahoo, Baidu and Microsoft.” (The AP, 9 Oct 2007)
• “Google left behind as Koreans Naver-gate the internet” (Financial Times, 2 Jan 2008)
• “IN SOUTH KOREA People who want to looksomething up on the internet don’t “Google it”. Instead they “ask Naver”. (Economist, 30 Feb 2009)
• Yeon-Ok Lee and Park. H. W., (2008). "The Importance of Search Engines in Digital News Consumption A Comparative Study Between South Korea and the UK". refereed paper presented at the Workshop “Gatekeepers in a Digital Asian-European Media Landscape: The rising structural power of Internet search engines”(2008).

Configurations may constrain the further TH developments at national system level by generating more uncertainty than can be managed by three TH actors- L. Leydesdorff
