Abstract
As a country with a high proportion of population and land area in the world, China is in a stage of changing its economic development direction, from the previous extensive economic growth to the intensive economic growth. At the same time, due to the limited total amount of resources and limited environmental bearing capacity on the earth, certain constraints are found in terms of amount and structure, which makes the contradictions existing in resources, environment and development of China become prominent. In this case: how to improve the efficiency of resource use, increase social productivity, and reduce environmental pollution has become a major problem that needs to be solved urgently.
To answer this question, the Chinese... (More)
As a country with a high proportion of population and land area in the world, China is in a stage of changing its economic development direction, from the previous extensive economic growth to the intensive economic growth. At the same time, due to the limited total amount of resources and limited environmental bearing capacity on the earth, certain constraints are found in terms of amount and structure, which makes the contradictions existing in resources, environment and development of China become prominent. In this case: how to improve the efficiency of resource use, increase social productivity, and reduce environmental pollution has become a major problem that needs to be solved urgently.
To answer this question, the Chinese government proposes to accelerate the improvement of technology and enhance the efficiency of technology utilization, that is, to develop Green Total Factor Productivity(GTFP). Therefore, on the basis of studying the development of GTFP, this article introduces the factors of Digital Inclusive finance services(DIF) and Regional Development Index(RDI), focusing on the analysis: DIF's promotion of GTFP development, and RDI's regulatory role in it.
This essay takes 30 provinces in China from 2011 to 2017 as the research object. Based on manual data collection, a total of 210 panel data have been obtained. First, the spatial autocorrelation of DIF and RDI is analyzed through Global Morans'I and local Morans'I. Second, the spatial dubin model is used to empirically test the influence of DIF and RDI on the development of GTFP. Finally, the spatial effect decomposition is carried out on how the first two influence GTFP with spatial spillover effect. The empirical results are the same as the research hypotheses: 1. DIF and RDI have a positive spatial autocorrelation. 2. DIF will accelerate the development of GTFP. 3. RDI will reduce the effect of DIF on GTFP. (Less)
