法国基础研究发展态势分析 及对我国的启示

This paper reviews the evolution of France's policies on investment in basic research, providing an in-depth analysis of the country's funding and personnel allocation for basic research, key areas of investment, and the evaluation system. The study reveals that France's basic research sector benefits from consistent policy support from successive governments, long-term and high-intensity funding, an ample pool of high-quality scientific personnel, and boasts a rational structure for fund execution and a robust system for financial evaluation. These factors contribute significantly to France's status as a global scientific powerhouse. Building on the analysis of France's approach to basic research, this paper addresses the current state of basic research investment in our country, highlighting issues such as the varying degrees of value recognition for basic research investment among different stakeholders, suboptimal innovation outcomes from such investments, a singular approach to investment, and gaps in the regulatory framework. The paper proposes four recommendations aimed at promoting the development of basic research in our country.
