论文摘要
传统上，通过哲学猜想和单一国家案例研究对民主科学的关系进行了研究。关于该主题的全球规模实证研究仍然有限。这项研究探讨了与全球科学研究合作网络动态有关的国家层面因素，重点是民主治理与国际研究合作关系的实力之间的结构关联。这项研究结合了2008年至2017年之间的170个国家的纵向数据结合了民主研究所，世界银行指标，Scopus和Web of Science Biblieperric数据的纵向数据。分析方法包括描述性网络分析，时间指数随机图模型（TERGM）和有价值的指数随机图模型（VERGM）。结果表明，民主治理对国际研究合作关系的形成和力量以及在具有相似民主治理水平的国家之间同质的积极影响。结果还表明了外源性因素的重要性，例如GDP，人口大小和地理距离，以及内源网络因素，包括优先依恋和传递性。
The democracy-science relationship has traditionally been examined through philosophical conjecture and single country case studies. There remains limited global scale empirical research on the topic. This study explores country level factors related to the dynamics of the global scientific research collaboration network, focusing on structural associations between democratic governance and the strength of international research collaboration ties. This study combines longitudinal data on 170 countries between 2008 and 2017 from the Varieties of Democracy Institute, World Bank Indicators, Scopus, and Web of Science bibliometric data. Methods of analysis include descriptive network analysis, temporal exponential random graph models (TERGM), and valued exponential random graph models (VERGM). The results suggest positive significant effects of democratic governance on the formation and strength of international research collaboration ties, as well as homophily between countries with similar levels of democratic governance. The results also show the importance of exogenous factors, such as GDP, population size, and geographical distance, as well as endogenous network factors including preferential attachment and transitivity.
