社会资本、技术创新与“资源诅咒”的拐点效应

通过内生化社会资本与技术创新,构建包含资源开发和制造业在内的四部门内生经济增长模型,剖析社会资本与技术创新影响经济增长的内在机制.结果表明:社会资本加速积累,引导更多劳动力流向技术创新部门,激励技术创新,弱化资源开发对技术创新的"挤出效应",切断"资源诅咒"的传导途径,社会资本成为打破资源诅咒的关键.进一步,以政府机构质量和信息沟通共享构建社会资本指标,运用1998-2013年间全国省际面板数据,验证了社会资本对技术创新和经济增长的影响,随着社会资本与技术创新"交叉效应"的引入,资源与经济倒U关系的拐点逐渐往后推移,证实了社会资本打破"资源诅咒"的内生作用机制.

Social capital,technology innovation and the turning-point of resource curse

Set social capital and technology innovation endogenous, we construct a four-sector endogenous economic growth model, by which we analyze the mechanism how social capital and technology innovation promote economic growth. We conclude that social capital accelerates self-accumulation, leading more labor flow into the technology innovation department, encouraging technology innovation, weakening the crowding-out effect on technology innovation resulting from resource development, cutting off the pathway of the resource curse, fundamentally social capital become the key to break the resource curse. Further, constructing social capital index with government agencies quality and information communication and sharing, using Chinese provincial panel data between 1998-2013, we find that:1) social capital has positive effect on technology innovation and economic growth; 2) with the cross-effect of social capital and technology innovation introduced, the turning point of inverted U curve of resource and economy gradually goes back, confirming the existence of endogenous mechanism that social capital helps to break the resource curse.
