The Spatiotemporal Evolution and Driving Factors of the Coupling and Coordination between Social Welfare Level and Resources Consumption
Based on China's provincial-level panel data from 2004 to 2020,the coupling coordination degree model is constructed to measure the coupling coordination degree between social welfare levels and resource consumption.Then,this article constructs a spatial Durbin model to empirically test the driving mechanism of their coupled and coordinated development and decomposes the spatial effects of each driving factor.It is found that:(1)During the research period,the coupling coordination between China's social welfare level and resource consumption showed an overall upward trend,with only a few years experiencing a decline;The coupling coordination degree in the western region is lower than that in the eastern and central regions,while the central region later caught up and surpassed the eastern region in 2017;The coupling coordination degrees of Shanghai and Beijing are at the leading level,while the coupling coordination degree in Tianjin has decreased significantly since 2015.(2)Economic scale,industrial structure,technological progress,energy consumption structure,energy intensity,foreign investment,and government scale significantly drive the coupled and coordinated development between the social welfare level and resource consumption.(3)In the process of coupling and coordinating development between social welfare level and resource consumption,there is a positive spatial spillover effect on the surrounding areas,and the impacts of driving factors on the coupling coordination degree also have spatial spillover effects.Among them,the direct and indirect effects of industrial structure,technological progress,and energy consumption structure are in the opposite direction.
