Demand-Led Growth,Structural Growth and China's Spatial Economic Inequality
This paper introduces the regional adjacency relationship into the traditional Gini coefficient,constructs the spatial Gini coefficient index(SpGini),and measures the level of inequality in China's spatial economy based on prefecture level zoning data.At the same time,the commodity trade between regions was decomposed into demand-led growth and structural growth.Based on relevant data from 2006 to 2020,spatial econometric techniques were used to examine the impact of induced growth and structural growth on the provincial spatial Gini coefficient.The results indicate that demand-led growth caused by commodity trade will promote the increase of provincial spatial Gini coefficient,but structural growth will inhibit its increase.Overall,the inhibitory effect of structural growth is greater than the promoting effect of demand-led growth,and it has both short-term and long-term effects.After using the common factor method to handle the endogeneity between demand-led growth,structural growth and spatial Gini coefficient,the results show strong consistency and robustness,and spatial inequality has cyclic causal cumulative effects in terms of spatiotemporal dimensions.Therefore,the research conclusion of this article is beneficial for achieving comprehensive and coordinated development of regional economy.
