尽管社会发展日益依赖科技创新，但理解创新如何产生仍然是复杂的难题。本文追溯当前关于创新生成的两大理论范式，即颠覆式创新和组合式创新近百年的认识论演变，来揭示打开创新过程黑箱、探索创新内生机制的尝试。研究表明，这两种范式都源于熊彼特的理论，但逐步形成了独立的理论框架；两种理论框架对我国科研政策和创新政策实践都具有新的意义；未来的创新研究仍需坚持对创新内生机制的重视。

Despite the increasing reliance on science and technological innovation, understanding how innovation emerges remains a complex challenge for our society. This paper traces the epistemological evolution of two major theoretical paradigms about innovation over the the past century, disruptive innovation and combinatorial innovation, to reveal the efforts that open the black box and explore the endogenous mechanisms of innovation. Key points discussed include:(1) both theories about innovation originate from Schumpeter's original ideas but have gradually evolved into independent frameworks;(2) the two frameworks have new implications for China's research policy and innovation policy practices; and(3) future innovation research should continue to focus on understanding the endogenous mechanisms of innovation.
