Abstract

Drawing on policy instrument theory and institutional isomorphism theory, this study employs textual analysis to systematically compare the differences and underlying mechanisms in blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI) integration policies across four major regions of China: Northeast, East, West, and Central China. The findings reveal significant regional divergences in both policy instrument types and intervention target preferences. The Northeast region predominantly adopts environment-oriented instruments, focusing on governance modernization and institutional supply. The East region exhibits a balanced instrument mix, leveraging a high-level institutional openness and a market-driven ecosystem to prioritize emerging markets and frontier technologies. The West region emphasizes both environment-oriented and supply-oriented instruments, developing computing power and data security infrastructure under national strategic mandates. The Central region relies mainly on supply-oriented instruments, achieving catch-up development through direct technology provision and application deployment. This study elucidates the adaptive logic of regional policy mixes and offers empirical insights for differentiated governance of next-generation digital technologies in China.
