数字经济测度的理论思路与实践评估

Theoretical Approaches and Evaluation of Practice in the Measurement of the Digital Economy

数字技术的快速发展对现行统计与核算体系产生巨大冲击,数字经济测度成为研究热点。理论上,数字经济测度的内容重点涉及数字经济发展水平的测度、数字经济要素的测度、新经济形式与传统产业数字化的测度等,在测度方法上主要包括生产法、支出法、增长核算法、计量经济学方法、编制指数法、建立数字经济卫星账户法等。实践上,国内外对数字经济测度开展了一系列探索,取得了显著的进展。总体来看,数字经济测度尚存在诸多难题,把握数字经济测度的发展方向,需要进一步明确数字经济测度的范围与边界、不断更新完善数字经济测度的统计方法,以及加强关于数字经济统计的基础数据收集。

The rapid development of digital technology has had a huge impact on current statistical and accounting systems,and the measurement of the digital economy has become a hot topic for research against the backdrop of high-quality development.Theoretically,the content of digital economy measurement chiefly deals with the digital economy’s development level,its factors,new economic forms,the digitalization of traditional industries,etc.The main measurement methods include the production method,the expenditure method,the growth accounting method,the econometric method,the index compilation method,and the method of creating digital economy satellite accounts.In practice,digital economy measurement has made remarkable progress in a series of explorations carried out at home and abroad,but generally speaking,it still faces many difficulties.To grasp the trends of its development,we need to further clarify its scope and boundaries,continuously updating and improving the relevant statistical methods and strengthening the basic collection of data on digital economy statistics.
