Targeted Assistance to Promote Common Prosperity Theoretical Logic and Practical Path
Paired assistance is a unique way for China to guide the flow of resources from developed areas to underdeveloped areas,promote the increase of welfare in underdeveloped areas,and achieve regional coordinated development and common prosperity.By constructing a symmetrical model for analyzing inter regional targeted assistance,a systematic analysis was conducted on the supply-demand balance and welfare increase and decrease between developed and underdeveloped regions in the primary product and industrial finished product markets in the targeted assistance relationship.It was found that all targeted assistance methods increased the welfare of underdeveloped regions,while the technology spillover from developed regions to underdeveloped regions in primary product production brought about an overall increase in welfare for both sides.On this basis,feasible paths for promoting common prosperity through targeted assistance have been summarized:under the coordination and linkage of the market and government,under the incentive and constraint of the central and local governments,group based assistance is carried out,and improving project-based assistance is a feasible path to further enhance the effectiveness of targeted assistance.
