Research on the Coordination Mechanism of Trade Policy and Industrial Policy from the Perspective of Core Technology Breakthrough

Abstract

In the context of global technological competition and industrial transformation, achieving breakthroughs in core technologies has become a critical pathway for enhancing national competitiveness. This study examines the synergistic mechanisms between trade policy and industrial policy from the perspective of core technology breakthroughs. It analyzes how these two policy instruments can be effectively coordinated to foster innovation, support industrial upgrading, and strengthen a nation's position in global value chains. The research is grounded in a review of relevant theoretical frameworks and existing literature, which highlights the interconnected roles of trade and industrial policies in shaping technological development. Through mechanism analysis and empirical investigation, the paper identifies key channels through which policy synergy influences innovation ecosystems, market access, and resource allocation. The findings suggest that a well-aligned policy framework can significantly promote technological advancement and industrial resilience. Based on the conclusions, the study proposes practical policy implications aimed at optimizing the design and implementation of coordinated policies. These recommendations are intended to provide actionable insights for policymakers seeking to navigate complex international economic environments and drive sustainable development through strategic innovation.
