摘要
本文创立一个新的分析体系并用此来解释中国经济飞速增长的源泉,传统的索洛方法只包括投入与技术进步两方面内容。我们创新地引进结构调整作为第三个增长的源泉。实证研究结果表明,结构调整可以通过以下方式来促进经济增长,即通过将资源从低效率的部门转移到高效率的部门,尤其是将农村剩余劳动力转移到乡镇企业生产上。我们还发现资本投资在对农业生产及乡镇企业的回报率比在城市要高许多,表明在农村地区缺乏投资。另一方由于有大量的剩余劳动力,农村的劳动生产率还是很低。因此,进一步发展生产力,促进跨部门跨地区的劳动力流动,对提高整个经济效率将会有决定性作用。
This study develops a new analytical framework to account for sources of rapid economic growth in China.We expanded traditional Solow approach to include another source of economic growth—structural change.The empirical results show that structural change has contributed to growth significantly by reallocating resources from low productivity to high productivity sectors.We also found that the returns to capital investment in both agricultural production and rural enterprises are much higher than those in urban sectors,indicating underinvestment in rural areas.On the other hand, labor productivity in the agricultural sector remains low,a result of the still large sur- pluses of labor in the sector.Therefore,the further development of rural enterprises and increase in labor flow among sectors and across regions are key to improvements in overall economic efficiency.
