And The Fiscal And Taxation Policy Of Regional Ecological Economy Development

With the progress of regional eco-economic development across the world, attempts are being made in many countries and regions to seek regional eco-economic development according to their respective conditions. To get free of the original development mode which stressed economic development and accumulation of social wealth, regional eco-economic development which emphasizes coordinated sustainable development of social, economic and eco-environment systems in the whole region should be sought after. This development mode has been recognized as an ideal mode for regional development. Therefore, it is necessary and of great significance to develop effective eco-economic development modes that suit the regional economic and social characteristics. Apart from technical factors, to overcome the negative externality caused by "market failure" in regional eco-economic development and construction, it requires the powerful support, guidance and participation of governments at various levels. Thus, the role of policies in promoting eco-economic development in China should not be underestimated. Instead, their critical role should be emphasized. Financial and tax policies, as important means of macro-control, are indispensable tools for national macro-control, rational allocation of social resources, social justice and intensive utilization of natural resources. This paper discusses the relations between eco-economy and regional economy, and the coupling relations between financial and tax policies and eco-economic development, with emphasis on discussions of regional features and regional economic features. Effective modes of regional eco-economic development based on financial and tax policies and active participation by parties concerned are also discussed in order to achieve harmonious integration of social, economic and natural resources and promote the transformation of traditional economic functions into ecological economic functions.This paper is aimed to solve the present discordant and unsustainable development conditions between economy and environment and the bottleneck, using a series of methods for systematic and comparative analysis, standard research and empirical research, based on theories for ecological economic development, regional development, sustainability and financial and tax policy application. From the perspective of eco-economic development policies, this paper gives definitions concerning regional eco-economy and financial polices, summarizes regional eco-economic practices from home and abroad, and explores regional eco-economic development modes, operating mechanisms and supporting systems. This paper also puts forward modes of intervention in the application of financial and tax policies in regional eco-economic development, with analysis of related problems, in order to help improve the theories and practices for regional eco-economic development. First of all, this paper gives detailed explanations of relevant terms such as region, regional eco-economy and financial and tax policy, and their dialectical relations, including definitions of region, regional economy, ecology, eco-economy, finance and tax, and financial and tax policies, as well as their dialectical relations, and classifications of regional eco-economies, with emphasis on analysis of the dialectical relations between regional economy and eco-economy, regional eco-economic development and policy support, and the coupling of regional eco-economic development and national eco-economy.Then, this paper devotes considerable space to descriptions of evolution of regional economy to eco-economy, including change of regional functions, present regional development features, change of financial and tax systems and policies, and evolution of regional economy to eco-economy, with emphasis on industrial restructuring, financial and tax policy changes, technical system construction, as well as latest developments about financial and tax policies for regional eco-economic development.This paper also discusses the financial and tax policy system for regional eco-economic development in cities and the correlation between urban and rural financial and tax policies. It points out that cities are regional eco-economic development centers, and puts forward financial and tax policies for regional eco-economic development in cities and for sustainable regional development as a whole. The paper calls for coordinated economic development in urban and rural areas through mutual complementation, job division and transfer in order to promote regional eco-economic development. The importance of financial and tax policies for sustainable regional eco-economic development is emphasized from the perspective of practicing criteria, promotion of scientific and technological advancement, protection of eco-environment and total improvement of people’s living conditions. This paper also discusses the irreversible evolution of financial and tax policies for regional eco-economic development from the following five points:mode of regional eco-economic development, industrial restructuring due to scientific and technological advancement, favorable ecological operations of the five capital systems, integration of urban and rural eco-economic resources, and innovation of financial and tax policies after the financial crisis, thus, it provides proof of the role of financial and tax policies in promoting regional ecological economic development. In the end, through analysis, comparisons and summarization of successful practices in Qingdao and other parts of the world, this paper gives examples of successful cases to promote regional eco-economic development through innovations of financial and tax policies, in order to find a new road for regional eco-economic development.In conclusion, this paper points out that regional eco-economic development is the only way to sustainable development in China, and that financial and tax policies are important drivers for regional eco-economic development. In this sense, innovation of relevant financial and tax policies must be strengthened to advance regional eco-economic development. In the case of Qingdao, an opening city that enjoys excellent natural conditions, independent economic plans and favorable financial and tax policies, this paper concludes that, with the support of national and local financial and tax policies, Qingdao has the necessary conditions for regional eco-economic development.
