基础设施、人力资本、对外开放度与我国地区差距——基于1995-2010年面板数据的实证

文章选择固定资产投资、基础设施完备程度、沿海区位优势、对外开放度和人力资本作为地区差距形成的主要影响因素,利用1995-2010年的面板数据考查了各因素对经济增长的影响。实证结果表明:我国地区经济差距主要来自于沿海地区的区位优势,其次是对外开放度对经济的贡献;固定资产投资、公路运输效率对中西部经济增长有明显的正影响,是中西部地区缩小与东部地区差距的主要着力点;教育水平对经济增长没有体现出明显的影响。

On the Infrastructure, Human Capital, Degree of Opening Up and Regional Economic Differentials Based on the Penal Data from 1995 to 2010

In this paper, we took investment, infrastructure, regional advantage, degree of opening up and human capital as the factors of regional economic growth. We made a research on the factors based on the penal data from 1995 to 2010. The empirical results showed the difference of regional economic growth was mainly caused by the regional advantage and degree of opening up. Investment in the fixed assets and transportation efficiency had positive effects on the midwest of China, thus they were the key factors to narrow down the regional gap between the midwest and east of China. Education level did not show any noticeable impact.
