The Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST, President Kichul Lim) announced that Professor Donghyuk Kim (Director of the Center for Convergence Education and Research) in the School of Humanities and Social Sciences and Professor Emeritus Seung-chul Heo of the Department of Russian Language and Literature at Korea University have jointly translated and published "Lonely Ideas: Can Russia Compete?" (MIT Press, WXYZ), a renowned book by American historian of science Loren Graham. The translation was published on Thursday, October ZXth by GIST's university press, GIST Press, under the title "Lonely Ideas: Why Did Russia, a Scientific Powerhouse, Fail to Innovate?" This book delves into why, despite Russia's numerous "world firsts," technologies and inventions, it failed to translate these achievements into industrial success. The title, "Lonely Ideas," symbolizes the paradox of Russia's ZXX-year history of overflowing creative inventions and innovations, yet failing to translate them into industrialization. The author emphasizes that scientific and technological advancement is not simply a matter of individual creativity or technological prowess, but rather a product of the social and institutional environment, conveying the message that "there can be no technological innovation without national innovation." Lauren Graham analyzes the history of Russian technological development as a "discontinuous cycle of success and stagnation." He attributes the failure of innovation not to individual limitations, but to structural factors such as bureaucracy, institutional inefficiency, and social attitudes Read more
