论产业生命周期理论

由于产业生命周期和产品生命周期有共同的理论基础及相似的生命周期曲线形状和阶段划分名称,人们易把两者相混淆。但是,它们具有不同的研究对象、研究目的、研究重点、应用领域和不同的曲线含义及特征,因此分属不同的学科。产品生命周期的研究不能代替产业生命周期理论的研究。作为产业经济学中的产业演化理论的重要组成部分,产业生命周期理论的研究具有丰富产业经济学理论的内容、提高产业政策制定的科学性以及加强企业发展战略前瞻性的理论意义和现实意义。

On the Theory of Industry Life Cycle

Because of the same theory basis and similar curve shape of product life cycle and industry life cy-cle, people are likely to mix them up. Yet, they belong to different research objective, research emphasis, applica-tion area and different curve meanings and characteristics. The study on the product life cycle can' t substitute the industry life cycle. As the important composition of industry evolvement in industry economics, this research posses-ses the theoretical and realistic meanings in the scientific constitution of industry policies and in the development strategy of enterprise' s development.
