湖北省经济空间格局演变与经济空间战略效应

Evolution of Spatial Pattern of Economy and Effect of Space Strategy for Economy in Hubei Province

城市经济的空间分异是地理区域的内在属性，地方政府的空间战略是优化区域经济格局的有效工具。文章立足效率视角，综合运用数据包络分析法（DEA）和Malmquist生产率指数，解析2005-2014年湖北省城市经济效率变化，审视省域经济空间格局变化、检测地方政府的空间战略效应。结果表明：（1）DEA效率分析与Malmquist生产率指数分析相结合能够刻画区域经济空间格局演变，透过区域经济空间格局演变能够从宏观上洞悉地方政府重大战略的空间效应；②湖北省DEA综合效率提升潜力巨大，Malmquist生产率持续增长，省域经济空间格局大致呈“核心-外围”结构并保持相对稳定，纯技术效率变化主要决定经济效率和经济增长的空间差异；③湖北省“一主两副”战略实施空间基础坚实、空间效应显著，“两圈两带”战略能够平衡省域经济空间差异，但可能损失整体经济效率。区域发展的“效率-公平”矛盾仍然是考验学界和政府智慧的重大课题。

Spatial variability of urban economy is one of the intrinsic properties of geographical region. Space strategies, proposed by local government, are helpful in the optimization of regional economic patterns. Based on the perspective of efficiency, this paper used Data Envelopment Analysis （DEA） and Malmquist total factor productivity index to analyze the changes in economic efficiency of Hubei Province, followed by examination of the spatial pattern evolution of provincial economy and inspection of the effect of space strategy. The results showed that： （1） The combination of DEA efficiency and Malmquist productivity index is useful in depicting the spatial pattern evolution of regional economy, which can be the lens for macroscopically getting insights into the effect of space strategy. （2） For Hubei province, with the sustainable growth of Malmquist productivity index, there is still a huge potentiality in its DEA efficiency promotion. The spatial pattern of provincial economy approximately appeared as a stable structure of ＂core-periphery＂, and the spatial disparities of economic efficiency and economic growth among cities were mainly depends on pure technical efficiency. （3） The implementation of ＂one main and two vice city＂ strategy in Hubei Province has a solid space foundation and have achieved a prominent spatial effect so far. Specifically, the ＂two circles and two belts＂ strategy is favorable for balancing the spatial disparities of provincial economy, however, it possibly damages global economic efficiency in return. The contradiction between efficiency and equity in regional development is still an important project that is testing wisdoms of both scholars and governments.
