工业设计_外文翻译------中国要有自己的创新之道.doc

It is commonly said that China needs to ‘catch-up’ with `the west' or the `developed world'. This phrase implies a singular path; there may be short cuts and `late-comer advantages' but the destination一a modern, developed country一is the same. But just when it seems China is within touching distance, the `developed world' changes the definition of what it is to be `developed' and puts more obstacles in the path of those trying to catch-up. In English we call this `moving the goal-posts'. After manufacturing, services and high-technology seemed to present clear goals for China, the cultural creative industries arrive as the new `value-added' product and service sector, posing yet more problems for the country's policy-makers. Many in the West have argued that China will take a long time to catch-up in these areas and that this provides a new source of competitive advantage to the West. Indeed, for some, the absence of a competitive cultural creative industries sector is evidence that China is not, and maybe can never be, fully `developed'.

人们总是说中国需要赶超西方或发达国家，这似乎意味着是唯一的道路。这条路上也许会有捷径，也许会是后来者居上，但目标是相同的，即成为一个现代化的发达国家。然而在中国不断缩短与这些发达国家之间的差距时，他们也在改变着“发达”的定义，并且为其设置了种种障碍。在英语中我们称之为“不停地移动球门柱”。在继制造业，服务业，高新技术成为中国明确的目标之后，作为具有新“附加值”产品和服务的文化创意产业成了中国政府的又一个难题。很多西方国家认为中国需要篅@な奔洳趴梢栽谡飧隽煊蛴犯仙希舛晕鞣焦依此倒抟捎质且幌钚碌木赫攀啤Ｈ肥等绱耍幽持殖潭壬纤嫡庖彩歉鲆埠苡辛Φ闹ぞ荩っ髁酥泄共皇腔蛘哂涝恫豢赡苁钦嬲庖迳系姆⒋锕摇Ⅻbr> 不可否认这是西方发达国家综合优势的又一个例子，同样，对中国来说文
