环境视角下的中国省际经济差距来源分析

An Analysis on the Sources of China's Inter-provincial Economic Disparity from the Perspective of Environment

文章用考虑能源环境因素的绿色经济增长核算模型,将中国省区经济增长分解为环境技术进步、环境技术效率、环境管制、产业环境结构和要素投入等五个部分,进一步利用核密度方法、时变参数方法、脉冲响应函数和方差分解方法分析了五种增长源泉对中国省际经济差距的影响效应及作用机制,研究发现:要素投入是拉动中国省区经济增长的主要力量,环境技术进步和环境管制对经济增长的贡献率较低,而环境技术效率和产业环境结构的总体恶化则阻碍了中国省区经济的增长;2000年以来,中国省际经济差距总体呈现缩小趋势,要素投入是促使中国省际经济差距趋于缩小的唯一因素,而其他因素都在不同程度上拉大了中国省际经济差距。其中,环境管制对省际经济差距的扩大作用最显著,其次是环境技术效率和环境技术进步的作用,而产业环境结构对地区差距的扩大作用最小。

By using the green economic growth accounting model considering energy and environment factors, the paper decomposes the economic growth of Chinese provinces into environmental technology progress, environmental technology efficiency, environmental regulation, industrial environment structure and factor input. The paper further analyzes the effect and mechanism of five kinds of growth sources on regional economic disparities in China by employing the kernel density method, the variable parameter method, the impulse response function and the variance decomposition method. The study finds that： The factor input is the main driving force of the provincia] economic growth in China, the contribution rates of environmental technology progress and environmental regulation to economic growth are relatively low, and the overall deterioration of environmental technology efficiency and industrial environment structure hinders Chinese economic growth. Since 2000, the overall regional economic disparities in China show a nanowing trend, the factor input is the only factor to prompt Chinese provin- cial economic disparity tending to narrow, while other factors have widened inter-provincial economic disparity in China in dif- ferent degrees. Among them, the widening effect of environmental regulation on inter-provincial economic disparity is the most significant, followed by environmental technology efficiency and environmental technology progress, and the role of industrial environment structure is the least.
