Empirical Research on Correlation of Foreign Trade and Economic Growth --Taking Shanghai as an Example

Based on the statistical data of Shanghai, the paper makes empirical research on the relationship between foreign trade and economic growth.

Exploring the moderating role of financial development in environmental Kuznets curve for South Africa:fresh evidence from the novel dynamic ARDL simulations approach

The extant literature has produced mixed evidence on the relationship between finan-cial development and ecological sustainability.This work addresses this conundrum by investigating financial development’s direct and indirect consequences on ecologi-cal quality utilizing the environmental Kuznets curve(EKC)methodological approach.Our empirical analysis is based on the novel dynamic autoregressive distributed lag simulations approach for South Africa between 1960 and 2020.The results,which used five distinct financial development measures,demonstrate that financial develop-ment boosts ecological integrity and environmental sustainability over the long and short terms.In the instance of South Africa,we additionally confirm the validity of the EKC theory.More importantly,the outcomes of the indirect channels demonstrate that financial development increases energy usage’s role in causing pollution while attenuating the detrimental impacts of economic growth,trade openness,and foreign direct investment on ecological quality.Moreover,the presence of an inadequate financial system is a requirement for the basis of the pollution haven hypothesis(PHH),which we examine using trade openness and foreign direct investment variables.PHH for both of these variables disappears when financial development crosses specified thresholds.Finally,industrial value addition destroys ecological quality while tech-nological innovation enhances it.This research provides some crucial policy recom-mendations and fresh perspectives for South Africa as it develops national initiatives to support ecological sustainability and reach its net zero emissions goal.

CHANGES FOR CHINA'S FOREIGN TRADE GROWTH

Analysis of China’s Foreign Trade Growth and Discussion of Related Policies

China’sforeign trade experienced threeconsecutive years of super-speed growth in 2002- 2004, even though the country was stricken by the SARS epidemic in 2003 and power shortages in 2004. What hasgone beyond expectations is that the exports trade still grew with momentum after the central governmentlowered theexportrebate ratesbyan average of3 percentagepoints, starting from January2004. Such growth momentum isapparently associated with external demand and the performance ofthedomestic macroeconomy, and even more associated with a seriesof support policies. Thispaper tries to raise issuesissues associated with these policies on the basis of an analysis of foreign trade performance in 2002-2004, in order to enhance understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of these policies, and to recommend a new line ofthoughtfor improving policy arrangements for the growth of import and export trade and for the harmonious development of the macroeconomy.

数字经济与内外贸一体化发展

文章从理论层面分析数字经济对内外贸一体化发展的影响机制,然后构建数字经济与内外贸一体化发展水平的测算指标,最后基于我国2013—2020年省级面板数据,采用双固定效应模型等对数字经济对内外贸一体化发展的影响进行实证检验及异质性考察。研究发现:(1)数字经济能够促进我国内外贸一体化发展,能够助力构建国内国际双循环新发展格局;(2)技术创新、产业结构升级的中介效应存在,而且是数字经济对内外贸一体化发展的重要影响机制;(3)数字经济能够显著正向促进我国东部、中部、西部地区内外贸一体化发展,而且对西部地区的促进作用最大,但对东北地区内外贸一体化发展的促进作用不显著;(4)数字经济对我国经济发展水平较差地区内外贸一体化发展的正向促进作用具有偏向性,有利于平衡我国地区经贸发展,实现我国经贸的“包容性”增长。据此,文章提出了相应的政策建议。

地区房价、对外贸易与经济增长——基于70个大中城市数据的PVAR模型检验

选取中国70个大中城市2006-2020年的面板数据,运用面板向量自回归模型对地区房价、对外贸易以及经济增长三者之间的互动关系进行数据分析和模型检验,分析发现其三者的进一步发展更多的是依赖自身发展的惯性;对外贸易和经济增长对于地区房价均会产生促进作用,但前者的促进影响要弱于后者,说明地区房价比较容易受到当地经济发展水平的影响;地区房价及经济增长对对外贸易均存在一定的促进作用,但促进效果微弱;地区房价波动对经济增长的影响要略大于对外贸易对经济增长的影响。基于此提出了应该保持地区房价合理波动,推动地区经济发展平稳进行;坚持对外开放战略,加快促进“双循环”建设的建议。
