Toward an Organized Form of Research——Values,Mechanisms,and Practical Logic of Japan's"Academic Research Mega Programs"
Based on the latest twelve"Academic Research Mega Programs"released in Japan in 2023,this study analyses the value concepts,guarantee mechanisms,and practical logic of these pro-grams at different levels.The Academic Research Mega Programs emphasize inter-institutional empow-erment for human resources development,scientific setting of milestones,and enhancement of interna-tional competitiveness as the values.In terms of guarantee mechanisms,the organizational structure with the separation of management,evaluation and implementation,the financial guarantee system with multiple sources of inputs,the multi-cycle quality assessment mechanism,and the multiple paths for the transformation of the results of industry,academia,and research have provided strong support for the implementation of the program.Through the analysis of its underlying meaning and operation mechanism,it is found that the"Academic Research Mega Programs"present four major features in the process of practice:leading the direction of scientific research with national strategies and emphasizing the innovation breakthroughs in the field of basic research;promoting scientific and technological inno-vation with the intersection of disciplines and strengthening the construction of innovative scientific re-search platforms;laying the cornerstone for the development of scientific and technological talents and further improving the plight of the scientific research ecosystem;promoting the transformation of scien-tific and technological achievements through basic research and serving the structural upgrading of the industry.
