摘要
优化经济结构、转换经济增长动力是新时代资源型地区高质量发展的必然要求,也是实现资源型地区可持续发展的根本。本文基于1998—2018年中国284个地级市面板数据以及1998—2013年中国工业企业数据,利用国际资源价格这一外生冲击研究了资源丰裕程度对地区创新水平的影响及作用机制。研究结果表明:资源丰裕对地区创新水平存在“资源诅咒”现象,即资源丰裕程度越高,地区创新水平越低。进一步机制分析发现,资源丰裕通过抑制非资源部门人力资本投入、挤出科技支出、削弱产业多样化和影响创新市场环境对地区创新水平产生抑制作用。基于此,笔者提出,资源型地区应合理配置并充分利用资源优势,促进关联产业发展,构建多元化产业体系,实现创新驱动发展。
Natural resources play a very important role in economic development,providing an important energy support for the sustainable and healthy development of the national economy.Abundant natural resources may promote regional innovation,or may have a negative impact on regional innovation.There are two different views on the relation between natural resources and innovation,namely,“inhibition theory”and“promotion theory”.This paper uses the exogenous impact of international resource prices to study the impact of regional resource abundance on regional innovation and its transmission mechanism.First,resource abundance inhibits regional technological innovation activities.The higher the resource abundance,the lower the comprehensive index of regional innovation and entrepreneurship.This negative effect has a certain continuous effect,and the negative effect in the third and fourth years is still significant;Second,evidence at the enterprise level indicates that regions with high resource abundance exhibit fewer patent applications and acquisitions;Third,exploring the mechanism of resource abundance inhibiting regional innovation,suggests that high regional resource endowments distort the allocation of human capital,squeeze out scientific and technological expenditures,reduce regional industrial diversification,and worsen innovation environment,leading to insufficient regional innovation momentum.This article expands existing literature form the following aspects.First,compared with previous studies,this article uses the product of world resource prices and regional initial endowments to construct a proxy variable for regional resource abundance,which can better identify the impact of natural resource abundance on regional innovation.Second,this article tests the relationship between resource abundance and technological innovation based on large‐scale enterprise micro data.At the same time,this article enriches the literature related to the“resource curse”.Previous research has mostly focused on the relationship between resource abundance and regional economic growth,with less attention paid to the impact of resource abundance on regional innovation and its mechanism.This article provides an analytical framework for the dynamics of economic transformation and development in resource‐based regions,which is conducive to promoting the transformation and innovative development of resource‐based regions.In terms of policy recommendations,resource‐based regions should allocate resources reasonably,promote the development of related industries,build a diversified industrial system,and promote innovation‐driven development in resource‐based regions.
