Based on the data from 2011-2019 China's 266 cities,this paper empirically tests the impact of free trade zone(FTZs)on urban economic resilience and its mechanism.Results show that:First,the establishment of FTZs is beneficial in enhancing the economic resilience of cities and has a sustainable promotional effect.Second,the establishment of FTZs can strengthen a city's economic resilience through three pathways:by promoting the digital economy effect,driving the talent ag-gregation effect,and stimulating the industrial innovation effect.Third,the earlier batches of FTZs have a greater magnitude in enhancing economic resilience,while the later batches have a more pronounced effect on enhancing economic resilience.Moreover,the policy effect of inland FTZs in strengthening economic resilience is about twice that of coastal FTZs.
