数字社会创新何以可能--一个知识计量学的分析

Unveiling the Potential of Digital Social Innovation:A Bibliometric Analysis

数字社会创新为整合技术创新与社会创新的双重优势带来新契机。文章在界定数字社会创新概念的基础上,运用文献计量法对数字社会创新主题文献进行了系统梳理,并基于九大聚类,以社会取向和创新过程为基本维度构建了两维知识框架:其一,数字社会创新从分别面向商业、政治、社会和生活等的数字赋能初期形态过渡到以数字创新生态系统为支撑的数字社会创业形态,所指涉的广义社会取向是以实现多元混合价值为目标的取向;其二,数字社会创新过程展现出以数字技术为核心、并借由行动者的主动架构或被动采纳与社会环境进行互动循环发展的过程。文章以此知识框架为进一步理解数字技术赋能或驱动的社会创新现象提供理论视角,以期发展国内数字社会创新理论研究,助力数字化转型实践。

Digital social innovation(DSI)brings new opportunities for integrating the dual advantages of technological and social innovation.This study commences with a precise definition of DSI,subsequently utilizing bibliometric techniques to meticulously review the pertinent literature.Organized around nine key clusters,the research constructs a two-dimensional knowledge framework centered on social orientation and the innovation process.Firstly,DSI evolves from an initial phase characterized by digital empowerment across various sectors such as business,politics,society,and daily life,to its current paradigm,underpinned by a robust digital innovation ecosystem and oriented towards digital social entrepreneurship.This evolution is marked by an expansive social orientation,which is directed towards the realization of a complex array of values.Secondly,the innovation process is depicted as a cyclical,interactive development centered on digital technology,where various actors engage actively or passively with the social environment.The proposed knowledge framework offers a novel theoretical lens for deepening our understanding of social innovation phenomena propelled or enabled by digital technology,thereby fostering the growth of domestic research in digital social innovation theory and bolstering the implementation of digital transformation strategies.
