知识经济政策目前是当代大学研究方法变革的非常强大的驱动力。他们通常将大学定位为一个国家创新体系，该体系既将知识定位为经济增长的关键因素，又将知识的主要目的视为促进经济增长。在这篇文章中，作者解释了大学研究中此类政策干预的经济逻辑，并考察了世界各地不同国家和国际政策站点对国家创新系统的概念化。他们感兴趣的是这些特定政策的共同点，而不是它们的不同之处。他们介绍了这类体系的三个关键主题以及他们寻求培养的学者。这些主题是它们的技术科学定位、网络特征和商业必要性。与之相对应的隐含主体是技术科学家、知识网络工作者和企业家。作者指出，在对大学未来的这种构建中，明显存在一些未被认识到和未被认识到的问题，其中之一是未能认识到学术文化礼物经济的力量。
Knowledge economy policies are currently very powerful drivers of change in contemporary university approaches to research. They typically orientate universities to a national innovation system which both positions knowledge as the key factor of economic growth and sees the main purpose of knowledge as contributing to such growth. In this article, the authors explain the economic logic informing such policy interventions in university research and look at the conceptualisation of national innovation systems in various national and international policy sites around the world. Their interest is in what these particular sets of policies have in common, not in how they differ. They introduce three key themes of such systems and the academics they seek to produce. These themes are their techno-scientific orientation, network characteristics and commercial imperatives. The corresponding implied subjects are the techno-scientist, the knowledge networker and the entrepreneur. The authors make the case that evident in such constructions of the future of universities are some unacknowledged and under-acknowledged problems, one of which is a failure to recognise the power of the gift economies of academic culture.
