An Empirical Analysis On The Regional Economic Gap In China Under The Background Of Economic Globalization

In recent years,with the globalization,economic globalization's influence on the regional economic disparity has caused the attention of many scholars,domestic and foreign scholars conducted a lot of theoretical and empirical research,the conclusions are not the same.From 1978 since China's reform and opening up,China's participation in the process of economic globalization is not plain sailing,there are both opportunities and challenges in the tide of economic globalization,especially the trend of the expanding regional economic gap year after year worry us.In order to understand whether there is some degree of correlation between the economic globalization and regional economic gap in China,this paper adopts the method of combining normative research and empirical research,using data from 1978-2012 and econometric model to analysis the relationship between the economic globalization and regional economic gap in China,hoping to put forward some useful suggestions for our country's economic development.The first chapter firstly put forward the research background in this paper,and then combed the related literature about the economic globalization and regional economic disparity from domestic and foreign.This paper comprehensive literature at home and abroad after finishing can be divided into four categories.The second chapter is the definition about the explanation of economic globalization and regional economic gap,and introduces in detail the measure of economic globalization and regional economic gap.Due to the influence of economic globalization factors too much and can't measure,so this article from the perspective of trade liberalization.Trade liberalization measures usually have trade dependency,and the ratio of external financing foreign investment ratio,etc.This paper USES a modified trade dependency to measure the degree of participation in economic globalization,taking into account the economic development and population size effect on the degree of openness to trade,trade dependency for the correction.Regional economic disparity includes many aspects,embodied in the social,economic,cultural and political aspects.No matter from the level,income level is a basic standard,therefore this article through to the measure of income distribution to represent the regional economic disparities,specifically the income gap between urban and rural areas,urban per capita disposable income and per capita annual net income of rural residents family ratio,to measure the gap of income distribution.Finally review the process of economic globalization which our country participated,the influence of economic globalization to our country and the status quo of China's regional economic disparity.The third chapter makes theoretical analysis on the actual situation of our country on the basis of expounding the relevant classical theory.The third chapter is based on the relevant methods of measuring the degree of openness to trade,using co-integration equation and VAR model to build a impulse response function,to study the influence of economic globalization for the regional economic gap in the empirical analysis.From the co integration equations,we can see the long-term stable equilibrium relationship between two variables.Can be seen at the same time,also on behalf of the economic globalization is a positive relationship between variables and the income gap,that is economic globalization increases the income inequality in China.By the impulse response function can be seen that the impact of economic globalization caused by impulse response in the each period of the income gap is positive,indicating that the role of economic globalization has widened the income gap.The fourth chapter puts forward some policy suggestions according to the empirical results.The innovation point of this article is adopting the revised trade dependence index in the empirical research,revised trade dependence index is more reasonable and stronger to the explanation of trade freedom,after considering the economic development and population size influence on trade freedom,and the analysis structure on the based of this index is more persuasive.
