Heterogeneous Environmental Regulation,Biased Technological Progress and Economic Growth
By constructing a theoretical model of heterogeneous environmental regulation,biased technological pro-gress and economic growth,and using the SBM directional distance function model to calculate China's industrial biased techndogical progress index between 2000 to 2019,this research empirically estimates the impact of different environmental regulation methods and biased technological progress on economic growth.It is found that cost-type environmental regulation,investment-type environmental regulation,and biased technological progress all contrib-ute significantly to economic growth,and this promotion is somewhat heterogeneous depending on regional differ-ences and the type of technological progress bias.Expansive analyses show that heterogeneous environmental regu-lation can achieve the promotion of economic growth through the mediating channel of biased technological progress,while differences in the types of environmental regulation affect the strength of the mediating effect.This research can provide a basis for promoting the construction of ecological civilization,continuously shaping new dynamics and new advantages for development,and achieving high-quality economic development.
