Measurement and Spatio-temporal Difference Evolution of the Construction Level of Livable,Suitable for Employment,and Beautiful Rural Areas in Old Revolutionary Base Areas:Taking the Five Key Old Revolutionary Base Areas as an Example
Building livable,suitable for employment,and beautiful rural areas is a key measure to promote high-quality development in old revolutionary base areas.Based on panel data from five key old revolutionary base areas in China from 2011 to 2022,an evaluation index system for the construction Level of livable,suitable for employ-ment,and beautiful rural areas is constructed.The entropy weight method and kernel density method are used to cal-culate the construction index,and the coefficient of variation and Theil Index are selected to measure and decompose regional differences.The results indicate that the overall construction level of livable,suitable for employment,and beautiful rural areas in old revolutionary base areas increased steadily,and polarization has weakened;The subsys-tem indices show varying degrees of upward trend,with relatively high and significant increases in the indices of ru-ral areas suitable for employment,beautiful rural areas,and happy rural areas,while the index of livable rural areas is relatively low and the growth rate is slow;The regional differences in subsystem indices are gradually narrowing,and the distribution tends towards a balanced trend;There are significant differences in the comprehensive construc-tion level of rural areas among the five key old revolutionary base areas;Regional differences are in a convergence state,with the Dabie Mountains,the Jiangxi-Fujian-Guangdong Revolutionary Base Areas,and the cross-regional differences being the main sources of differences.
