环境规制策略互动与绿色创新——来自市场型与命令型环境规制的证据

Environmental Regulation Strategic Interaction and the Green Innovation:Evidence from the Market-Type and Command-Type Environment Regulations

环境规制策略互动具体表现为地区间环境规制行为的相互影响,明晰环境规制的策略互动效应是解释环境规制非完全执行现象的关键所在。本文将环境规制策略互动与绿色创新纳入统一的分析框架,就环境规制策略互动的存在性及其对绿色创新的影响进行规范性阐释,并进一步考察环境规制策略互动影响绿色创新的内在机制。研究发现,市场型和命令型环境规制策略互动的现象普遍存在,且异质性环境规制策略互动长期内趋于弱化;市场型环境规制策略互动主要诱发绿色创新的逐底竞争,而命令型环境规制策略互动则主要引致绿色创新的逐顶竞争;环境规制策略互动对于绿色创新的影响在城市经济外向型维度、城市创新能力维度、企业所有制维度和企业污染属性维度存在显著的异质特征;机制分析表明,经营成本提升是市场型环境规制策略互动影响下绿色创新逐底竞争的主要诱发机制,而命令型环境规制策略互动所引致的绿色创新逐顶竞争则主要源于绿色研发投资增加的中介效应和经营成本提升的遮掩效应。本文据此提出建立区域协同治理模式,强化异质性环境规制的多元化实施路径。

Environmental regulation strategies interaction is specifically reflected in the mutual influence of environmental regulation behaviors between regions.To clarify the strategic interaction effect of environmental regulation is the key to explaining the phenomenon of incomplete implementation of environmental regulation.This paper makes normative explanations on the existence of environmental regulation strategy interaction and its influence on green innovation,and further investigates the internal mechanism of environmental regulation strategy interaction affecting green innovation in a unified analytical framework.The results show that the interaction between market-oriented and mandatory environmental regulation strategies is widespread,and the interaction between heterogeneous environmental regulation strategies tends to be mild in a long time.The interaction of market-oriented environmental regulation strategy mainly induces the"bottom-by-bottom competition"of green innovation,while the interaction of imperative environmental regulation strategy mainly leads to the"top-by-top competition"of green innovation.The impact of strategic interaction of environmental regulation on green innovation has heterogeneous characteristics in the dimensions of enterprise ownership,enterprise pollution attributes,urban innovation capabilities and economic export orientation.The mechanism analysis shows that the increase of operating costs is the main inducing mechanism of"bottom-by-bottom competition"of green innovation under the interactive influence of market-based environmental regulation strategies.The"top-by-top competition"of green innovation caused by the interaction mandatory environmental regulation strategies mainly comes from the intermediary effect of the increase of green R&D investment and the masking effect of the increase of operating costs.This paper proposes that the regional collaborative governance model should be established to strengthen the diversified implementation paths of heterogeneous environmental regulation.
