数字经济发展对制造业出口技术复杂度的影响研究——基于西部陆海新通道沿线省市的实证分析

Research on the Influence of Digital Economy Development on the Technical Complexity of Manufacturing Export—Empirical Analysis Based on the Provinces and Cities along the New Land-Sea Corridor in the West

随着新一代信息技术的快速发展,数字经济逐渐成为推动我国经济发展的主要力量。数字经济发展对于制造业出口产品技术水平的提升和出口结构的优化均有促进作用,并通过推动生产网络数字化和消费网络数字化促进制造业出口技术复杂度的提升。本文基于西部陆海新通道沿线地区13个省级行政单位2011~2020年间的面板数据实证考察西部陆海新通道沿线地区数字经济发展对制造业出口技术复杂度的影响。研究显示,数字经济发展具有提升制造业出口技术复杂度,其中信息化发展水平、互联网发展水平和数字交易发展水平对西部陆海新通道沿线地区整体的制造业出口技术复杂度均具有显著的提升效应。

With the rapid development of the new generation of information technology, the digital economy has gradually become the main force to promote China’s economic development. The development of digital economy can promote the improvement of the technical level of manufacturing export products and the optimization of export structure, and promote the improvement of the technical complexity of manufacturing export by promoting the digitalization of production network and consumption network. Based on the panel data of 13 provincial administrative units along the western land-sea new channel from 2011 to 2020, this paper empirically examines the impact of the development of digital economy in the areas along the western land-sea new channel on the technical complexity of manufacturing exports. The research shows that the development of digital economy can improve the technical complexity of manufacturing exports, among which the development level of informatization, the development level of Internet and the development level of digital transactions have a significant improvement effect on the overall technical complexity of manufacturing exports in the areas along the new land-sea corridor in the west.
