新型城镇化、数字鸿沟与城乡收入差距

New Urbanization,Digital Divide and Urban-rural Income Gap

选取2012—2021年中国30个省级面板数据,实证检验新型城镇化、数字鸿沟与城乡收入差距的关系。研究发现:新型城镇化可显著缩小城乡收入差距。异质性分析显示,新型城镇化对高分位、东部地区城乡收入差距的抑制作用更大。中介效应检验表明,新型城镇化可通过缓解一级数字鸿沟及二级数字鸿沟,间接缩小城乡收入差距。门槛效应检验证实,新型城镇化对城乡收入差距的影响存在新型城镇化的单重门槛效应以及数字鸿沟的双重门槛效应。据此,提出加快推进新型城镇化、完善农村数字新基建布局、制定差异化发展策略的建议,以期为助力共同富裕发展提供决策参考。

Based on 30 provincial panel data from 2012 to 2021 in China,this article empirically examines the relationship between new urbanization,the digital divide,and the urban-rural income gap.Research has found that new urbanization can significantly reduce the income gap between urban and rural areas.Heterogeneity analysis shows that the new type of urbanization has a greater inhibitory effect on the urban-rural income gap in the high quintile and eastern regions.The intermediary effect test shows that new urbanization can indirectly narrow the urban-rural income gap by alleviating the primary and secondary digital divide.The threshold effect test confirms that the impact of new urbanization on the urban-rural income gap has a single threshold effect of new urbanization and a dual threshold of the digital divide.Based on this,suggestions are proposed to accelerate the promotion of new urbanization,improve the layout of rural digital new infrastructure,and formulate differentiated development strategies,in order to provide decision-making reference for promoting common prosperity and development.
