Research on the Path of Industrial Transformation and Upgrading in Resource-Based Cities—From"Resource Curse"to "Blessing of Resources"
As the economy enters a stage of high-quality development,many resource cities are facing serious problems of economy transformation,and the "resource curse" is becoming a hot topic for scholars.Based on the theory of new structural economics,this paper discusses the reasons of "resource curse"and the logic of the successful realization of industrial structure transformation and upgrading in resource cities.With the systematic introduction of the theoretical framework of the Growth Identification and Facilitation of Factors(GIFF)model,Datong is taken as a typical case to illustrate the application of the framework and the role of the government in the transformation and upgrading process,and it is proposed to use the intervention of "promising government" to guide the capitals and resources to the non-resource industries with(potential)comparative advantages,and to eliminate the soft and hard bottlenecks of infrastructures that limit the development of the industries.In this way,a correct way of thinking from "resource curse"to "resource blessing"is proposed for the transformation of resource-oriented cities.
