数字经济、消费升级与中国制造业高质量出口

Digital Economy,Consumption Upgrading and High-Quality Exports of China's Manufacturing Industry

基于国研网数据库的出口质量数据,利用固定效应模型探究数字经济对中国制造业出口质量的影响及作用机制。研究发现,数字经济对中国制造业出口质量提升产生显著的促进作用,这一结论在经过替换变量、更改样本容量等稳健性检验以及进行内生性处理之后依旧成立。此外,这种促进作用呈现出一定的异质性:对于收入水平较高的目的国(地区)的出口,或者我国中部地区的出口,影响较为显著。从作用机制来看,数字经济是通过驱动国内消费升级促进制造业出口质量提升的。

Based on the export quality data from the information network database of Development Research Center of the State Council,by the use of fixed effect model,this article examines the impact of digital economy on the export quality and its mechanism of action of China's manufacturing industry.It is found that the digital economy has significantly promoted the export quality of China's manufacturing industry.This conclusion is still valid after robustness tests such as replacing the variables and changing the sample capacity,and endogenous processing.In addition,this promotion shows a certain degree of heterogeneity,which has a significant impact on destination countries(areas)with higher income levels and the central region of China.From the perspective of mechanism,the digital economy promotes the export quality of manufacturing industry by driving the upgrading of domestic consumption.
