地方政府竞争提高了经济效率么?——基于省级面板数据的经验研究

    Has Local Government Competition Enhanced Economic Efficiency:—An Empirical Research Based on Province-level Panel Data

    • 摘要: 沿用地方政府竞争的视角,对改革开放以来的经济效率进行解读。通过对政府支出效率、投入产出弹性、全要素生产率等多维度的度量和测算,发现伴随着中国经济增长,经济的效率在逐步提升。实证研究结果显示,政府支出效率与政府支出结构相关,行政管理费的过高支出不利于政府支出效率的提升;外商直接投资竞争并没有提高资本-产出弹性系数和ICOR;同样,制度和基础设施竞争对全要素生产率的提升效应不明显。总体而言,地方政府竞争对经济效率的提升贡献要弱于市场化、金融发展等因素。

       

      Abstract: “Growth from below” has become a new prospective in the explanation of China Miracle and the basic means of Chinese economic growth mode. This paper follows this perspective to interpret Chinese economic efficiency. We have found growth of economic efficiency based on measuring government expenditure efficiency, input-output elasticity ratio, TFP and so on. In detail, government expenditure efficiency has close relationship with government expenditure structure, especially when too much administration fee has negative relationship with government expenditure structure. FDI and institution competition have unobvious improvement on input-output elasticity ratio and TFP.
