【摘要】：对于中国多数资源型城市来说,改善生态环境与促进经济增长是当前面临的重要任务。一些研究认为治理环境污染可能加重"遵循成本",进而不利于经济增长;也有研究认为环境规制会通过"创新补偿"效应,增进当地产品竞争力,弥补企业成本负担并促进经济增长;此外,还有研究认为环境标准提高有助于区域产业结构升级,进而带动经济增长。为验证中国资源型城市环境规制对经济增长的影响及其传导机制,本文基于2004—2014年资源型城市数据,以样本城市GDP为被解释变量,以工业污染治理设备运行费用为解释变量,进行了面板数据实证分析,并观察了科技行业人员比重和第三产业比重的中介效应。结果显示:(1)资源型城市工业污染物治理对GDP总量和人均GDP的影响均显著为正;(2)在环境规制与GDP(或人均GDP)的正向关系中,科技行业人员比重的提升起到了部分中介作用,即存在显著的创新补偿效应;(3)除了传统观点看到的创新补偿效应,污染治理对产业结构的积极影响也在二者正向关系中有重要的中介作用,而且比创新补偿效应的作用更显著。本文的结论是,资源型城市环境规制未对经济增长造成不利影响,主要是由于经济资源从效益不佳的工业企业流向了第三产业,同时工业部门自身的创新潜力也已逐步凸显。因此,面对经济社会持续发展的压力,资源型城市要取得经济增长与生态环境的双赢,应当强化污染治理成本对企业技术进步的倒逼机制,进一步实现创新驱动发展,同时要构建多元产业体系,促进资源型行业与现代服务业的有效对接和深度融合。
[Abstract]:For most resource-based cities in China, it is an important task to improve ecological environment and promote economic growth. Some studies suggest that controlling environmental pollution may increase "compliance costs", which is not conducive to economic growth; others believe that environmental regulation will enhance the competitiveness of local products through the "innovative compensation" effect. In addition, it is believed that the improvement of environmental standards will contribute to the upgrading of the regional industrial structure and thus promote economic growth. In order to verify the impact of environmental regulation on economic growth and its transmission mechanism in resource-based cities in China, based on the data of resource-based cities from 2004 to 2014, this paper takes the sample city GDP as the explanatory variable and the operating cost of industrial pollution control equipment as the explanatory variable. The panel data are analyzed and the mediating effects of the proportion of scientific and technological personnel and the proportion of tertiary industry are observed. The results show that the effects of industrial pollutant management on the total amount of GDP and GDP per capita in resource-based cities are significantly positive. (2) in the positive relationship between environmental regulation and GDP (or GDP per capita), the increase of the proportion of personnel in science and technology industry plays a part intermediary role. In addition to the traditional idea, the positive influence of pollution control on the industrial structure also plays an important role in the positive relationship between them, and it is more significant than the effect of innovation compensation. The conclusion of this paper is that environmental regulation in resource-based cities has no adverse impact on economic growth, mainly because economic resources flow from inefficient industrial enterprises to the tertiary industry, and the innovation potential of the industrial sector itself has been gradually highlighted. Therefore, in the face of the pressure of sustained economic and social development, in order to achieve a win-win situation between economic growth and ecological environment, resource-based cities should strengthen the backward mechanism of pollution control costs to the technological progress of enterprises, and further realize innovation-driven development. At the same time, it is necessary to build a diversified industrial system to promote the effective docking and deep integration of the resource-based industry and the modern service industry.
