“Local Effect” and “Neighbor Effect” of Provincial Capital Expansion on Industrial Upgrading:Based on the Quasi-experiment of County-to-District Reforms
摘要: 文章运用空间双重差分模型,实证检验了省会城市撤县(市)设区对产业结构升级的效应和影响。结果表明:①省会城市撤县(市)设区显著促进了自身的产业升级,但对省内其他地级市的产业升级产生负向影响;②省会城市撤县(市)设区对周边城市产业升级的抑制作用,随距离的增加呈现出先增后降的倒"U"型趋势,且多中心布局模式下的抑制作用更强;③在经济发展相对落后的西部地区,省会城市撤县(市)设区对周边地级市产业升级的抑制作用更强,且更高的行政级别抑制作用更明显;4要素挤占、引资竞争和创新削弱等是省会城市撤县(市)设区影响周边地级市产业升级的重要渠道。研究结论可为新形势下促进区域协调发展和可持续发展提供理论借鉴。
Abstract: This paper empirically examines the effects and impacts of the "County-to-District Reforms" in provincial capitals on industrial structure upgrading by utilizing a quasi-natural experiment and applying a spatial difference-in-differences (DID) model. The results indicate the following: 1) The "County-to-District Reforms" in provincial capitals significantly promote their own industrial upgrading but exert a negative impact on the industrial upgrading of other prefecture-level cities within the same province. 2) The inhibitory effect of the "County-to-District Reforms" on the industrial upgrading of surrounding cities follows an inverted U-shaped trend, initially increasing and then decreasing with distance. Moreover, this inhibition effect is stronger under the multi-center layout pattern. 3) In the relatively less developed western regions, the "County-to-District Reforms" in provincial capitals have a more pronounced inhibitory effect on the industrial upgrading of surrounding prefecture-level cities. Additionally, higher administrative levels amplify this restraining effect. 4) Key channels through which the "County-to-District Reforms" affect the industrial upgrading of surrounding prefecture-level cities include factor crowding-out, investment competition, and weakened innovation capacity. The findings of this study provide theoretical insights for promoting regional coordinated development and sustainable development under new circumstances.
