中国创新能力的区域差异测度、演化及收敛研究

The Research on the Regional Difference, Evolution and Convergence of Innovation Capability of China

文章从高技术产业视角,借助Theil指数及其分解式,分析了1998—2013年国家及东部、中部、西部和东北两个层次五大区域的创新能力的差异及其演化规律,并从空间和要素两个层面分析了造成区域间创新能力差异的主要原因;然后运用空间面板β收敛模型,分阶段分层次分析了国家及各区域创新能力的收敛性及创新资本投入、研发人力投入和创新文化三个要素对创新能力收敛的影响。研究结论表明,2007年是中国区域创新能力格局变化的重要拐点,2007年后中国区域创新能力的收敛速度明显加快,显示出中国区域协同创新建设的良好态势,而创新资本和创新劳动的投入对推动中国区域协同创新具有重要作用。

The article analyzes the innovation capability difference of China and its eastern, middle, western, and northeastern regions and their evolution law in the period of 1998--2013 with the Theil index and its decomposition formula form the perspectives of high-tech industries; and explains the main reason that causes the regional innovation capability difference from spatial and elemental perspective; then analyzes the innovation capability convergence of China and its four regions and the effect that in- novation capital input, R＆D input and innovation culture have on innovation capability convergence by implying the space panel 13 convergence model. The conclusion of the research shows that 2007 is the important inflexion point of China＇ s regional innova- tion capability pattern. The convergence speed of regional innovation capability has been accelerated significantly since 2007, which shows a good posture of China＇ s regional collaborative innovation construction and the input of innovation capital and inno- vation culture is important in driving China＇ s regional collaborative innovation.
