摘要

当试图解释创新企业的行为及其技术战略时，有必要能够解释技术变革的现象和决定它的潜在机制。因此，人们必须仔细研究对技术变革的不同解释。本文考察了进化解释的逻辑，并将其与新古典经济学在应对动荡环境中企业的技术变革和创新活动时使用的故意解释进行了比较。在解释创新企业的行为和为其创造技术战略时，将强调标准故意解释的问题，并提供另一种进化解释作为起点。

In defence of evolutionary explanation: coping with technological change

When trying to explain the behaviour of innovating firms and their technology strategies it is necessary to be able to explain the phenomenon of technological change and underlying mechanisms that determine it. Therefore, one has to take a closer look at different explanations offered for technological change. This paper examines the logic of evolutionary explanation and compares it to intentional explanations used in neoclassical economics when coping with technological change and innovation activities of the firms in turbulent environments. The problems of standard intentional explanation will be stressed and an alternative evolutionary explanation will be offered for a starting point when explaining the behaviour of innovating firms and creating technology strategies for them.
