Dynamic evolution and spatial differentiation of the allocation efficiency of Science and Technology Resources in the countries along the “Belt and Road”

Abstract

Science and technology resources are the strategic resources for the development of today’s society and the basic conditions for improving the ability of independent innovation. For scientific and technological innovation, the optimal allocation of science and technology resources is crucial. For countries along the “Belt and Road”, the efficiency of the allocation of science and technology resources has become the key to the development of innovative international construction. Therefore, this study takes the countries along the “Belt and Road” as the research area, and takes the period of rapid development of science and technology resources from 2005 to 2018 as the research period, comprehensively using the DEA-SBM model and ArcGIS spatial analysis methods to deeply analyze the allocation of science and technology resources in the countries along the “Belt and Road”. The long-term dynamic evolution law and spatial differentiation pattern of efficiency. The research methods and conclusions can provide useful reference for the efficient allocation of the international science and technology resources along the “Belt and Road” and realization of the “the innovative Belt and Road”.
