地方政府支出、效率改进与区域经济增长——中国地区面板数据的经验分析

本文运用面板数据随机系数模型的实证分析表明,中国三大地区政府支出的效率改进机制不同,但其单个要素产出效率和全要素生产率呈现出相似的时序动态变化,只是由东到西政府支出对资本产出效率和全要素生产率的改进作用渐次减弱,劳动产出效率在中西部地区没有明显改善,东部地区也只是1990年代初较高,其后大幅下降。

Local Government Expenditures, Productivity Improvement and Regional Growth: Empirical Evidence from the Panel Data of Chinese Regions

The empirical analysis uses panel data and stochastic coefficient model,and the results show that the impro- ving effects of government expenditures are different in three regions,but the single factor productivity and total factor productivity in three regions have similar trend of change.The results illustrate the proper expansion of government ex- penditures will raise capital productivity,and the adjustment of its structure will promote total factor productivity,but from the eastern to the western the improving effects of government expenditures on the capital productivity and total fac- tor productivity slowly weaken,and the labor productivity in the central and western regions wasn't obviously raised and in eastern region was higher in the early 1990s,but after that the labor productivity in the eastern was decreased sub- stantially.
