均衡发展的隐形壁垒:方言、制度与技术扩散
发布时间：2018-10-23 16:26
【摘要】：技术差异是地区间贫富差距的核心表征,理解技术扩散的深层障碍是有效推行区域均衡发展政策的前提。本文利用方言数据测度文化差异,基于中国代表性城市样本进行实证研究,结果显示:以上海和广州作为技术前沿,各个城市与技术前沿的相对方言距离对技术差距有显著影响,表明文化差异阻碍了技术从前沿地区向其他地区扩散,并且制度是这一过程的重要中介变量,即文化差异通过阻碍制度传播进而阻碍了技术扩散。进一步考察技术扩散壁垒的异质性,发现在同等条件下,更高的人力资本水平、更高的外来移民人口比例、更多的外国直接投资能削弱文化差异的阻碍效应;清末开埠通商、西方传教以及近代工业发展等早期对外开放和采用新技术的历史经验,同样有助于削弱文化差异这一技术扩散的隐形壁垒。
[Abstract]:Technology difference is the core representation of the gap between the rich and the poor in different regions. Understanding the deep obstacle of technology diffusion is the premise of carrying out the policy of regional balanced development effectively. This paper uses dialect data to measure cultural differences, and makes an empirical study based on the sample of representative cities in China. The results show that Shanghai and Guangzhou are the technological frontiers. The relative dialect distance between cities and technological frontiers has a significant impact on the technological gap, indicating that cultural differences hinder the diffusion of technology from the frontier to other regions, and institution is an important intermediary variable in this process. That is, cultural differences hinder the spread of technology by hindering the spread of institutions. By further studying the heterogeneity of technology diffusion barriers, we find that under the same conditions, higher human capital level, higher proportion of immigrant population, more foreign direct investment can weaken the barrier effect of cultural difference. Western missionary and modern industrial development, such as the early opening to the outside world and the adoption of new technology, will also help to weaken cultural differences, the invisible barrier to the diffusion of technology.
