Measurement,Spatial Characteristics,and Dynamic Evolution of the Level of the Common Prosperity in China's Spiritual Life
Achieving the common prosperity in spiritual life is a fundamental requirement of socialist modernization.The entropy method is used to measure and calculate China's level of common prosperity in spiritual life across five dimensions,namely,material civilization,political civilization,spiritual civilization,social civilization,and ecological civilization,and the Dagum Gini coefficient,Moran's index,Kernel density estimation,and Markov chains are utilized to study the regional disparities,spatial clustering,and dynamic e-volution of China's common prosperity level in spiritual life from 2010 to 2022,which is very necessary.China's overall level of common prosperity in spiritual life has been lower,but it has steadily improved during the study period.Among the five primary indicators,material civilization has exhibited the fastest growth,while spiritual civilization has progressed steadily,lagging behind the other primary dimensions.Both intra-re-gional and inter-regional disparities in the development level of common prosperity in spiritual life have shown the narrowing trend,with inter-regional disparities remaining the primary source of overall disparities.The most prominent factors contributing to the regional disparities of common prosperity in spiritual life include the residents'per capita consumption expenditure,newspaper circulation,education expenditure as a percentage of GDP,and energy consumption per unit of GDP.The distribution pattern of common prosperity level in spir-itual life across the country reveals a"high-high"and"low-low"clustering.Short-term level-crossing of com-mon prosperity in spiritual life across the regions remains challenging,but when spatial geographic factors are considered,the stability of common prosperity in spiritual life is significantly affected.Both China as a whole and the four regions exhibit absolute β-convergence trends in common prosperity in spiritual life,and this convergence persists even after controlling a range of influencing factors,with a notable acceleration in conver-gence speed in comparison with the absolute β-convergence scenario.
