中国区域旅游发展差异影响因素研究——来自1990-2003年的经验数据检验

A Study on the Regional Tourism Resources and the Unbalanced Development of the TourismIndustry in China

文章采用系统的数据和计量模型方法,探讨了20世纪90年代以来中国区域旅游业发展差异及其变迁,并对这种差异进行了地区分解,结果表明东部地区内部的省际差异及东中西三大地区之间的区间差异是造成我国旅游业发展区域差异的主要原因。以世界遗产、旅游区(点)以及国家历史文化名城为基本指标,文章综合评价了我国旅游资源禀赋的区域差异,发现其与区域旅游业发展差异之间存在一定的相关性。以此为基础,文章还实证分析了区域旅游资源对旅游业发展差异的影响,结论为旅游资源只是影响我国区域旅游业发展差异的因素之一,区域基础设施、服务设施以及经济发展水平等因素也是区域旅游业发展差异的主要影响因素。

Using systematic data and econometric models, this paper explores the unbalanced development of the tourism industry and its evolution in China since 1990s and decomposes such disparity in terms of areas. The results show that it is the inter-province disparity within the eastern area and the disparity among eastern, middle and western regions that contribute to China＇s regional differences in tourism development. With the world heritage, tourism spots and national historical culture cities as the basic indices, this paper reviews the regional disparity of tourism resources in China and draws the conclusion that such disparity relates to the unbalanced development of tourism industry to a certain degree. Later on, the paper analyzes empirically the impact of regional tourism resources on the regional tourism development and the results show that, in addition to regional tourism resources, regional fundamental infrastructures, service facilities and economic development are also main factors that contribute to the unbalanced tourism development.
