技术进步、城市化与城乡收入差距关系研究——基于中国城市群的经验分析

A Study on the Relationship between Technical Progress,Urbanization and Urban-rural Income Inequality——An Empirical Analysis Based on China's City Clusters

文章通过构建一个多元分析框架,运用数学理论模型推导了技术进步、城市化水平与城乡收入差距三者之间关系,得出了三者之间内在作用机理。随后采用计量软件对中国23大城市群数据进行了实证检验。在实证部分中将中国城市群划分东、中、西三个部分分别进行检验,来比较三者之间差异。实证检验的结果与理论模型推导结果基本一致,因此得出结论:就中国城市群而言,技术进步会扩大城乡收入差距,而城市化缩小城乡收入差距,同时技术进步将促进城市化水平提高。

The paper, by building a multivariate analytical framework, applies mathematical theoretical model to deduce the relationship between technical progress, urbanization and urban-rural income inequality and obtains the internal mechanism between them. And then it makes an empirical test on the data of the 23 big city clusters of China by using the measurement software. The paper also divides China＇ s city clusters into three regions： eastern, central and western, in order to compare the differences between them. The results of the empirical test are consistent with that of the theoretical model Thus, the paper concludes that, in the case of China＇ s city clusters, technical progress will expand the urban-rural income inequality, whereas urbanization will narrow the urban-rural income inequality. Moreover, technical progress will improve the level of urbanization.
