摘要
推动企业间分工深化是畅通国民经济循环、构建全国统一大市场的关键路径与重要抓手。行政审批改革作为重塑政府与市场关系的关键制度安排,虽在打破地区间市场分割、疏通要素流动堵点等方面具有重要作用,但既往研究对其在推进全国统一大市场建设中的功能关注不足。本文借助我国逐步设立地级市行政审批中心的准自然实验,基于手工收集整理的中国工业企业数据,构建交错型双重差分模型深入探讨了行政审批改革对企业专业化分工的影响效果与作用机制。研究结果表明,行政审批改革显著提升了企业专业化分工水平。机制检验结果显示,行政审批改革能够发挥市场规模扩张效应和外部交易成本降低效应,从而促进企业间分工深化。异质性分析显示,行政审批改革对企业专业化分工的促进效果在营商环境较差和对外开放水平较低的城市、非国有和市场地位较低的企业中更显著。本文不仅从理论上补充和丰富了企业分工影响因素和行政审批改革效果评估的相关文献,还为继续推进行政审批改革和构建以国内大循环为主体的新发展格局提供了政策支持。
Promoting the deepening of the division of labour among enterprises is a key path and critical leverage for enhancing the circulation of the national economy and building a unified national market.As a key institutional arrangement for reshaping the relationship between the government and the market,the administrative approval reform plays an important role in breaking down the inter-regional market segmentation and unclogging the blockage of factor flow,but previous studies have paid insufficient attention to its function in promoting the construction of a unified national market.Leveraging the quasi-natural experiment of gradual establishment of prefectural-level city administrative approval centers in China,this paper constructs a staggered difference-in-differences model to conduct an in-depth exploration of the impact and mechanism of the administrative approval reform on the specialized division of labour among enterprises.The results of the study show that the administrative approval reform has significantly improved the level of specialized division of labour among enterprises.Mechanism test results show that administrative approval reform can exert the effects of expanding market scale and the effect of reducing external transaction costs,thereby promoting the deepening of the division of labour among enterprises.Heterogeneity analysis shows that the promoting effect of administrative approval reform on the specialized division of labour among enterprises is more significant in cities with poorer business environment and lower levels of openness to the outside world,as well as among non-state-owned enterprises and firms with low market status.This paper not only theoretically supplements and enriches the relevant literature on the factors influencing corporate division of labour among enterprises and the evaluation of administrative approval reform effectiveness,but also provides policy support for continuously advancing administrative approval reform and building a new development pattern centered around domestic large-scale circulation.
