The Korean System of Innovation and the Semiconductor Industry: A Governance Perspective

Author

  • Kim, S Ran

Abstract

This paper explores in detail the political-institutional processes and governance aspects of the Korean system of innovation. It shows (i) how the specific form of corporate governance (chaebol) evolved out of Korea's national political-institutional arrangements, such as the state-firm relationship based on reciprocal subsidy; and (ii) how the dramatic emergence of Korean semiconductor firms in world memory chip markets resulted from the subtle and changing interactions of state, world market conditions and chaebol governance.
