Spatial-temporal Evolution and Influencing Factors of the Coupling Coordination of Digital Economy and High-quality Development of Manufacturing Industry in the Yangtze River Delta Urban Agglomeration
The continuous and rapid growth of the digital economy has become an important force to promote the high-quality development of China's manufacturing industry.Based on the panel data of 41 cities at the prefecture level and above from 2012 to 2021 in the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration,this paper analyzes the spatial-temporal evolution characteristics of the coupling coordination between the digital economy and the high-quality development of manufacturing industry and its influencing factors using the coupled coordination model and the spatial Durbin model.It'found that:1)The degree of coupling coordination between the digital economy and the high-quality development of manufacturing industry continues to strengthen.In terms of temporal evolution characteristics,it shows a highly coupling coordination development trend between the digital economy and the manufacturing industry in the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration,and has obvious regional differences.2)There are great differences in the coupling coordination level between the digital economy and the manufacturing industry in different regions,and there is a large room for improvement.From the perspective of spatial evolution,the proportion of high-quality coordination,good coordination and intermediate coordination is very low,and there is still much room for improvement.From the perspective of spatial correlation,there is a significant spatial correlation,which is embodied in the characteristics of spatial agglomeration.3)The coupling coordination degree between the digital economy and the manufacturing industry affects each other and has some differences between neighboring cities.Among them,the level of economic development,the level of financial development,the utilization level of foreign capital and the optimization of industrial structure have a significant positive promoting effect on the coupling coordination degree of neighboring areas,the government intervention and the degree of opening to the outside world have a significant inhibiting effect on the coupling coordination degree of neighboring areas,while human capital fails the significance level test.According to the above,it proposes some suggestions:strengthening the top-level design,radiation drive and support capability,and providing impetus for the coupling coordination development between the digital economy and the high-quality development of manufacturing industry in urban agglomerations.
