DOES ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION INFLUENCE INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTIVITY IN CHINA——The Empirical Test Based on DEA and Co-integration Analysis

Abstract

Abstract: This paper applies DEA to measure total factor productivity(TFP) on China's industrial sector during 1996—2007,then tests the relationship between environmental regulation and TFP.The results show that:(1)there is a co-integration relationship between environmental regulation and TFP;(2)environmental regulation is Granger-cause of TFP,with the increasing of time lag,such cause is more significant;(3) environmental regulation's positive promotion to TFP is much more obvious in long run than that of in short run.Therefore,the government should increase the strength of environmental regulation properly and optimize the forms of environmental regulation,thus to induce the effect of innovative compensation,and realize the win-win situation between the protection of environment,the improvement of productivity and the increase of economy.

Key words: environmental regulation, productivity, innovative compensation, co-integration, win-win

摘要： 本文先基于DEA方法测算出1996—2007年我国工业部门的全要素生产率(TFP),然后验证了TFP和环境规制之间的关系。结果表明:(1)环境规制和TFP之间存在协整关系;(2)环境规制是TFP的格兰杰成因,随着滞后期的加大,格兰杰成因更加显著;(3)环境规制在长期对TFP的正向促进作用比短期更为明显。因此,政府应当适度提高环境规制强度,优化环境规制形式,进一步诱发"创新补偿"效应,实现环境保护和生产率提高、经济增长的"双赢"。
