我国经济增长与区域不平衡发展结构的关系及演变——基于技术进步方式转型视角的研究

Research on the Evolution of the Relationship between China′s Economic Growth and Imbalanced Regional Structure--Based on the Perspective of Technology Progress

长期以来,我国经济具有总量高速增长与区域不平衡并存的发展特征。为什么会出现这样的特点,它会对经济增长起到怎样的影响,未来随着经济增速的下降和技术进步方式的转型,这两者的关系又将产生怎样的变化都是需要研究和思考的问题。基于此,文章以技术进步方式转型为视角,对我国经济增长与区域不平衡发展结构的关系与演变进行理论推理和实证检验,认为技术引进条件下的不平衡发展模式对经济高速增长起到了重要的作用,技术进步方式转型期,区域间差距将出现先略有缩小再相对增大的变化趋势,只有当技术进步方式完全转变为依靠技术(自主)创新后,区域间经济发展差距才会真正缩小,但这将会是一个相当漫长的过程。国家有必要运用宏观经济和产业政策加速这一进程,缩短技术进步方式转变周期,缓解并逐渐消除区域间发展差距。

For a long period of time,China′s economy is characterized with the high-speed growth of aggregate amount and the imbalanced regional structure.Based on those situations,the following questions merit further study:Why do China′s economy has such characteristics?How will it affect economic growth rate?How does the relationship evolve and change in the future?This paper will study the evolution of the relationship between the two factors from the perspective of technology progressing pattern.Conclusions drawn after theoretical studies and empirical test are as follows:imbalanced development pattern plays a significant role in the high-speed growth of economy when technologies are introduced from outside;the gap among regions will first become smaller and then bigger during the transforming period of technological progress;the regional development gap will actually decrease only when the technology progressing pattern transforms into technology innovation(self-innovation),which is a long process.It is necessary for government to stimulate the process of technological innovation and accelerate the transformation of the pattern of technology progress by using macroeconomic policies and industrial policies in order to narrow the gap between the regional economic developments.
