Study on the Path of Green Total Factor Productivity Improvement in China's Logistics Industry from the Perspective of Configuration—Based on the Super-SBM-Malmquist and the fsQCA Methods
By integrating TOE framework and taking 30 provinces(autonomous regions and munici-palities directly under the Central Government)as research samples,six indicators of Internet develop-ment level,proportion of new energy,innovation ability,logistics industry agglomeration,marketization level,and opening to the outside world,were extracted as antecedent variables,and logistics industry GTFP was taken as the result variable.The fsQCA method is used to reveal the configuration paths that lead to high and non-high GTFP in China's logistics industry.The study found that during the"13th Five-Year Plan"period,the GTFP of China's logistics industry continued to make progress,and the GTFP of the logistics industry in most provinces and cities has improved.The path to high green total factor productivity in the logistics industry can be summarized as"Internet-opening up-innovation"driven,"Internet-opening up-new energy-logistics industry agglomeration"driven and"new energy-mar-ketization-logistics industry agglomeration"driven.
