Abstract

University think tank is an important part of the think tank system in China. Based on the theory of resource dependence, this paper constructs the framework of resource dependence in the policy advocacy of university think tank. The comparative case study of university think tanks with remarkable achievements in Beijing and Shanghai is selected. Through field investigation and data collection, this paper compares the differences between the two places in the construction of university think tanks, and analyzes the influence of region on the acquisition of resources by university think tanks from four dimensions: organization management, supply chain relationship, propaganda and promotion, and strategic alliance. Because of the distance between Shanghai and the physical space of the capital, it is more difficult to obtain the required resources than Beijing.
