New infrastructure investment affects the spatial effect of industrial structure upgrading
Our country is in the crucial process of industrial structure reformation,and ex-panding the new infrastructure investment,which has a feature of digital technology application,has a practical significance in pushing the upgrading industrial structure.This article picks China's 2004-2021 provincial panel data as samples to empirically prove the spatial effect of new infrastructure investment on industrial structure upgrading.Empirical results illustrate that the new infrastructure investment will accelerate the upgrading of the province's industrial structure,and have a positive spatial spillover effect.New infrastructure investment will inhibit the coor-dinated transformation of industrial structure,but this negative impact is not contagious among regions;The impact of new infrastructure investment on the upgrading of industrial structure is heterogeneous among different infrastructure types and eastern,central,and western regions.The above conclusions have certain policy implications for China to grasp the direction of new infrastructure investment,improve the efficiency of resource allocation,and accelerate the pace of industrial structure optimization and upgrading.
