摘要
Lucas(1 988,2 0 0 2 )一直强调城市具有不同于国家、省区层面上的经济增长特性 ,但为现有的有关文献所忽视。本文采用趋同分析的标准方法 ,就我国 2 1 6个地级及其以上城市展开讨论 ,结果发现 ,与我国省区趋同模式不同 ,我国城市经济增长存在δ趋同和绝对β趋同 ;从趋同机制上看 ,我国城市层面上同时存在新古典增长理论和新增长理论所强调的趋同机制。本文的发现是稳健的 。
Lucas (1988, 2002) has been emphasizing the role of city in economic growth theoretically, which is, however, in dark empirically. We, therefore, try to explore the Lucas' ideas based on the 216 cities in China, finding that the income converges absolutely, despite no such pattern emerges across provinces. To investigate the underlying mechanism, we estimate the separate contributions of diminishing return and technology transfer to the rate of absolute convergence, which are provided by the neo-classical growth theory and the new growth theory, separately, and find both are important. Our findings are robust, and shed some highlights in regional disparity.
