摘　　要：在学术界一直存在一个争论:家族涉入是促进了企业创新还是阻碍了企业创新?厘清上述争论的产生原因和影响因素,有助于解释家族企业创新研究的争论和拓展家族企业创新研究的视野。本文对近年来相关文献进行了系统地梳理,归纳出家族企业创新三个领域的研究成果:家族企业创新投入、家族企业创新产出、家族企业创新的影响因素(内部家族因素和外部环境因素),分析家族企业创新争论产生的原因,并针对现有研究存在的不足,对未来的研究提出展望。本文提出通过构建权变理论整合家族企业创新争论的研究方向,有助于丰富家族企业创新的理论研究。Family firms play an important role in promoting economic growth, and innovation is the fundamental guarantee for enterprises to be invincible.
