云南省进口贸易与经济增长之问关系的实证研究

进口贸易以其独特的作用机制,通过影响经济体系的生产、消费的总量和结构而影响一国的经济增长.因此,深入把握进口贸易和经济增长之间的关系对于一国制定适当的增长和发展政策有着重要的指导意义.长期以来,人们没有足够重视进口贸易对经济增长的作用.本文利用云南省1980～2006年的相关统计数据,对云南省的进口贸易与经济增长之间的关系进行了实证研究,结果表明二者具有长期稳定的均衡关系,而且云南省的进口贸易是区域经济增长的重要原因.从而,本文深入地分析了云南进口贸易促进经济增长的作用机制,并提出了相关的政策建议.     

河南省资本市场与经济增长关系的实证研究

通过对河南省2002～2011年的数据进行实证分析,得出结论:河南省资本市场中股票市场的发展促进并拉动经济增长,但是其作用是有限的.而其中长期信贷在经济增长中的贡献是比较大的.这说明在河南的经济增长中,依然依赖于金融中介的间接融资,直接融资比例依然偏低.     

中国农村金融功能发挥与农村经济增长关系的实证研究

文章通过建立内生经济增长模型,对中国农村金融功能发挥与农村经济增长的关系进行了实证检验。结论是:长期地看,中国农村经济增长与农村金融功能发挥无关;但短期地看,中国农村金融功能对农村经济的发展具有助推作用。原因在于中国农村金融的功能缺失,一方面不能根据农村的金融需求,尤其是农村的投资需求重新有效地分配农村储蓄;另一方面缺乏将短期可支配资金变为长期投资的机制。

保险商品消费与经济增长关系的实证分析

保险商品消费与经济增长的关系对我国经济和保险的发展都有重要的作用.通过理清保险商品的消费与经济增长之间的相互关系,对促进保险增长和经济增长有着决定性的意义.本文采取1989-2009年全国的保费收入与人均GDP的数据,利用Eviews 6.0进行实证研究,通过格兰杰因果检验,得出保险商品消费不是经济增长的原因,经济增长是保险商品消费的原因,进而从微观的角度证明了经济增长对保险商品消费增长的促进作用.     

云南省对外贸易与经济增长关系的实证研究

采用协整检验与VAR模型，对云南省对外贸易与经济增长关系进行实证研究，结果表明：云南省出口增长对经济增长促进作用不大，出口增长不是GDP增长的Grange原因；而进口增长和经济增长互为因果关系；经济增长促进了进、出口的增长。     

我国固定资产投资与经济增长关系的实证分析

一、引言 无论是西方的古典经济增长理论,还是新经济增长理论,无不将资本积累作为推动经济增长的重要因素.与其他手段相比,固定资产作为资本积累的重要途径,对宏观经济的作用可以通过短期的需求效应和长期的供给效应这两个方式来实现,因而对经济增长的拉动作用更为直接和显著,一直是政府实现经济增长目标和进行宏观调控的首要手段.     

制度变迁与经济增长质量:理论分析与计量检验

本文提出有效的制度变迁是经济增长质量变化的重要原因这一假说,论述了制度变迁对经济增长质量的作用机理,并依据1992-2007年数据检验了二者长期因果关系。结论是制度变迁是中国经济增长质量的长期格兰杰原因。中国经济增长质量总体呈上升趋势,但与经济增长速度并不同步。提高经济增长质量需要从制度方面加以型塑,逐步实现经济增长与质量提高进行同步。     

我国股票市场与经济增长关系的实证研究

笔者利用我国1993年～2007年的时间序列数据,运用协整分析技术和格兰杰因果检验等计量分析方法,对我国股票市场与经济增长之间的关系进行分析.实证检验结果显示,我国股票市场与经济增长存在弱相关性,经济增长对股票市场发展有显著的影响,股票市场对经济增长的作用不显著.在选取的股票市场指标中,股票市场规模、交易率、筹资率对经济增长的影响显著,其他指标作用影响不显著;而经济增长对所选取的表示股票市场发展状况的指标有显著的影响.     

论技术和制度的关系及其在经济增长中的作用

技术在经济增长中的决定性作用，已被史实和现实所证实。但技术革命发展的阶段性，并不能完全说明经济增长的持续性。在这一过程中，制度也发挥着十分重要的作用。正是由于技术和制度的相互促进和相互决定，才为经济增长提供了持续性的保证。因而，技术和制度在经济增长中“互动论”的观点，为说明在相对较长时间里经济持续增长提供了较为完整的依据。     

宏观经济景气波动对就业增长的影响

中国不成熟的市场经济和特殊的人口环境使得用就业弹性和奥肯定律均无法有效反映我国经济增长与就业关系，更无法刻画经济波动对就业的冲击。本文从宏观经济景气波动影响就业增长的三个路径：劳动力供给、劳动力需求和政府公共就业政策来建立系统的分析模型，以探析经济波动与就业增长的长期均衡关系和滞后冲击效应。在劳动力供给系统中，经济波动使经济活动人口增多，加快了就业增长；在劳动力需求系统中，经济波动不利于经济增长，从而不利于劳动力需求增长；在政府就业促进政策系统中，社会保障和就业的投入缓和了经济波动对就业增长的冲击。     

制度、企业家精神与中国经济增长动力的再检验

通过省际面板数据,笔者探讨了制度和企业家精神对我国区域经济增长的直接和间接影响。结果表明,首先,制度改革以及企业家精神不仅通过影响技术进步而直接影响我国长期经济增长,而且通过影响资本、劳动力、人力资本配置效率的途径影响我国当期经济增长;其次,2000年～2008年期间,东部地区制度改进的影响主要表现为对技术进步的推动,而在中西部地区则主要表现为对增长要素配置效率的提升。另外,制度对企业家精神的决定性作用也在研究中得到了验证。     

Energy efficiency and economic growth of China： 1953-2006

Energy plays an important role in the economic life. With the rapid development of economy, the constraint of energy on the sustainable development of economy is becoming more and more obvious. This paper just Studies the factors influencing energy efficiency of China and the relationship between energy efficiency and China＇s economic： growth. By using time series multivariable linear regression methods with China＇s relevant data from 1953 to 2006, this paper constructs the regression model to analyze the factors that would impact energy, efficiency. After that, a regression model of China＇s real output to capital, labor and energy e lficiency is conducted to estimate the marginal contribution of every factor to the real output to prove the fundamental influence of energy efficiency to the economic growth. In the end, some policies and recommendations are also put forward in order to improve the energy efficiency; of China.     

Military spending and economic growth in China: a regime-switching analysis

This article investigates the impact of military spending changes on economic growth in China over the period 1953 to 2010. Using two-state Markov-switching specifications, the results suggest that the relationship between military spending changes and economic growth is state dependent. Specifically, the results show that military spending changes affect the economic growth negatively during a slower growth–higher variance state, while positively within a faster growth–lower variance one. It is also demonstrated that military spending changes contain information about the growth transition probabilities. As a policy tool, the results indicate that increases in military spending can be detrimental to growth during slower growth–higher growth volatility periods.     

Short- and long-term impact of remarkable economic events on the growth causes of China–Germany trade in agri-food products

This paper focuses on a systematic quantitative discussion of the short- and long-term impact of remarkable economic events on international trade in a two-stage framework. Firstly, procedures based on dummy variables are proposed to detect structural breaks, types and sizes of jumps caused by such events. Then we propose to apply a hierarchical CMS (Constant Market Share) model to all sub-periods determined by the detected change points to study the short- and long-term impact of those events on growth causes. Application to China–Germany trade in agri-food products shows that China's accession to WTO had a negative short-term impact on corresponding series. But its long-term impact on China's export competitiveness was clearly positive. The short-term impact of the EU's CAP (Common Agricultural Policy) reform on Germany's exports to China was also negative. Its long-term impact on export competitiveness was sometimes positive and sometimes negative. The financial crisis of 2008 caused a significant reduction of China's agri-food exports to Germany. But Germany's exports to China in 2009 were not affected by the financial crisis as much.     

Niches and economic competition: implications for economic efficiency,growth and diversity

This article examines the relationship between market niches and economic competition and explores the consequences of niches for economic efficiency, growth and diversity of commodities. Concepts of a niche in everyday use, ecology, economics and business management are compared. Factors giving rise to market niches, some of which are institutional, are identified, and their links with barriers to entry and mobility are discussed. Common negative views about their consequences for competition and economic efficiency are outlined. However, the availability of niches can potentially have a very positive impact on economic growth and development as well as on the diversity of commodities. New measures of global diversity of commodities are introduced. Economic globalisation involves institutional change that reduces the availability of niches and threatens long-term economic growth and diversity of commodities. Niches also provide frictions in economic systems and may have stabilising properties.     

An empirical analysis of the relationship between economic development and population growth in China

China has experienced a dramatic demographic transition since the latter half of the twentieth century, and thus, assessing the global economic implications is an important issue. This article uses time-series data on China to estimate the determinants of gross domestic product (GDP) per capita. According to the results of the presented co-integration analysis, population has a significantly negative impact on GDP per capita, while savings rate, total factor productivity and degree of industrialization have significantly positive impacts on GDP per capita. These results suggest that the share of the working-age population relative to the total population does not have a strong influence on GDP per capita. Therefore, the contribution of the working-age population to economic growth might not be as large as previously assumed. It is also possible that an increase in savings, remarkable industrialization and rapid technological progress have all stimulated economic growth in China greatly.     

A cost-benefit analysis for the economic growth in China

Currently, traditional development issues such as income inequality, depletion of natural resources, environmental pollution as well as retardation of infrastructure have occurred in China. In the future, more pressures would be imposed on China by the continuous fast development of industrialization, and with transfer of the world manufacture center to China. Sustainable development, including its economic, environmental and social elements, is a key goal of decisionmakers. This paper develops a methodology on cost benefit analysis of economic growth at macroscopic level to identify issues of China's sustainability. In order to address some important issues on how to make policies to improve the quality of economic growth, the CBA framework developed in this study analyses economic-ecological-social interaction, building three accounts that reflect three dimensions of sustainable development that includes 26 sub-models in all, and finally is integrated into an index as Net Progress Proceeds (NPP). The estimation methods of these submodels, such as cost of environmental pollution, depletion of natural resources and defensive expenditures are described in detail. Based on the framework and methods, this paper examines the costs and benefits of economic growth in three aspects of economy, ecology and society. The results illustrate that NPR of China's economic growth had been negative for a long time and has just became positive since year 2000 but was quite low. Even the best was only 1.6% in 2002 (the worst was − 24.2% in 1982). Based on the comparison between three accounts, we can draw a conclusion that ecological cost is the dominant factor that affects China's NPR. The empirical results show that if no other innovative measures or policies are taken in the future the costs of growth would outweigh its benefits, resulting in un-sustainability. Basically, the long-term economic growth would be unsustainable due to increasing environmental damage and depletion of natural resources. There are a few limitations that we consider need to be improved in our CBA framework and method, nevertheless they have many options that can be explored by policy makers, to make the development path more sustainable.     

Financial innovation,economic growth,and the consequences of macroprudential policies

We leverage a ‘catch-all’ measure of financial innovation—research and development spending in the financial sector—to assess the net relationship between financial innovation and economic growth and evaluate the influence of macroprudential policy on this relationship. Using a panel of 23 countries over the period of 1996–2014, our results demonstrate a net-positive relationship between financial innovation and gross capital formation. We find no evidence of a net-negative impact of financial innovation on economic growth, challenging the popular and political stigma surrounding financial innovation. We also find little robust evidence of macroprudential policy influencing the relationship between financial innovation and economic growth. Our results support a functional approach to the regulation of financial innovation, which improves the intermediation process, leading to increased capital formation.     

Modelling the nonlinear relationship between CO2 emissions from oil and economic growth

The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from oil and GDP, using panel data from 1971 to 2007 of 98 countries. Previous studies have discussed the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis, but little attention has been paid to the existence of a nonlinear relationship between these two variables. We argue that there exists a threshold effect between the two variables: different levels of economic growth bear different impacts on oil CO2 emissions. Our empirical results do not support the EKC hypothesis. Additionally, the results of short-term analyses of static and dynamic panel threshold estimations suggest the efficacy of a double-threshold (three-regime) model. In the low economic growth regime, economic growth negatively affects oil CO2 emissions growth; in the medium economic growth regime, however, economic growth positively impacts oil CO2 emissions growth; and in the high economic growth regime, the impact of economic growth is insignificant.
