Abstract928)      PDF(pc) (9107KB)(1659)       Save
This study leverages the implementation of the “Environmental Air Quality Standards”, designed to augment environmental information transparency,as a quasinatural experiment The research draws upon the pool of publicly listed companies on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges spanning from 2010 to 2020 as the focal sample and employs a multiple difference model to empirically scrutinize the impact of macrolevel regional environmental information disclosure on microlevel corporate environmental governanceThe findings of this study are as follows:
First,the study reveals that an increase in governmental pressure for firms to disclose environmental information serves as an incentive for companies to adopt environmental governance measures,consequently leading to a reduction in corporate pollutant emissions The empirical model employed in this study satisfies the parallel trend assumption,justifying the use of a differenceindifferences model for empirical testing Furthermore,the placebo test method is applied to confirm the nonrandomness of the research findings Additionally,instrumental variable methods,Heckman models,and PSMDID techniques are utilized to address potential endogeneity concerns,while robustness tests support the reliability of the primary regression results Second,mechanism analysis illustrates that governmentmandated environmental information disclosure enhances corporate environmental governance through two channels:strengthening regional environmental law enforcement constraints and reinforcing public environmental supervision Third,the effectiveness of government environmental information disclosure in promoting governance is shown to be weakened in regions facing significant fiscal pressure but strengthened when firms receive government environmental subsidies Lastly,further investigation indicates that firms response to government environmental information disclosure constraints significantly enhances their innovation capacity,quality,operational efficiency,and financial performance,ultimately achieving a “winwin” outcome In conclusion,this study enriches and expands the theoretical research in the field of institutional economics,particularly concerning macropolicies and microlevel firm behavior It provides valuable insights that support the institutional foundations hypothesis proposed by Acemoglu et al (2005) and offers beneficial references for stimulating firms enthusiasm towards environmental governance and facilitating the transition to a green,lowcarbon,and efficient development model

The paper,based on the new perspective of “one center and three basic points” of the new structural economics,constructs the framework of the new structural environmental economics,and proposes new insights in thirteen main research fields In terms of the new framework,this paper constructs a new theoretical framework of “endowment structureproduction structureenvironmental structuresuperstructure” and a new policy framework of “carbon peak carbon neutrality” strategy In terms of new insights,from the perspective of development,in different stages of economic development,the optimal production structure determined by the factor endowment structure is different,the corresponding optimal environmental structure is different,and the relationship between the optimal environmental structure and the optimal superstructure is also different From the perspective of transition,under the optimal production structure determined by the endogenous factor endowment structure,the distortion of environmental structure or superstructure caused by exogenous factors such as market (government) failure will further distort the relationship between the two Under the distorted production structure that violates the factor endowment structure,especially under the distorted production structure caused by the catchup strategy of heavy industry,the environmental structure and its relationship with the superstructure will be distorted,resulting in efficiency loss

Abstract338)      PDF(pc) (1259KB)(214)       Save
This paper compares the development goal of Chinese path to modernization of common prosperity and finds that the weakness of Chinese path to modernization of common prosperity in China is that the lowincome group is too large,and the difficulty is to increase the income of lowincome peopleTherefore,to effectively promote Chinese path to modernization of common prosperity,we must focus on increasing the income of lowincome peopleAccording to data from the National Bureau of Statistics,lowincome groups in China are mainly distributed in rural areas,central and western regions,and key employment groupsAccording to the characteristics of lowincome people's income sources,from the four main income sources of wage income,net operating income,net property income,and net transfer income,this paper proposes basic ways to broaden the income sources of rural,central and western regions,and key employment groups,so that more residents can enter middleincome groups,and achieve the development goal of common prosperity as scheduled
Key words:common prosperity;Chinese path to modernization;lowincome group;middleincome group;income source of residents

Developing manufacturing industry is an important way for resourcebased regions to realize economic transformation and sustainable development during the “14th Fiveyear Plan” period Theoretically,the mining industry will produce both crowdingout and crowdingin effects on the development of the manufacturing industry Based on the micro data of abovescale industrial enterprises from 1998 to 2013 and countylevel data,this paper empirically analyzes the impact of the mining boom on local manufacturing The results show that although the mining boom boosted local wages,it still promoted local manufacturing output and productivity,implying that the crowdingin effect is stronger than the crowdingout effect From the perspective of the mechanism:firstly,mining boom drove the development of the upstream manufacturing industry through industry linkage effect;secondly,through the expansion of the market scale and agglomeration effect,it improved the productivity of nonrelated manufacturing enterprises,thereby offsetting the increase of labor costs;finally,the expansion of local fiscal expenditure was also conducive to the development of local manufacturing industry developing resourcerelated manufacturing industries and cultivating manufacturing industry clusters will help the manufacturing industry to become the economic engine of resourcebased regions and promote highquality regional development

Abstract226)      PDF(pc) (2369KB)(180)       Save
In recent years,the problem of “removal from reality” in Chinas real economy has become increasingly serious,and the risks in financial system are accumulatingIn this context,this paper takes Ashare nonfinancial listed companies from the first quarter of 2009 to the third quarter of 2019 as samples,from the perspective of microentities,examines the impact of commercial bank supervision on the financialization of entities and explores whether the commercial bank supervision policy can play an important role in making the real economy “removing back to reality”This paper finds that strengthening commercial bank supervision has significantly reduced the level of financialization of entitiesThis result is still valid after considering the endogenousness and testing the sensitivity of the regression modelThe mechanism test shows that the supervision of commercial banks can narrow the gap between financial income and entity income,improve the transparency of corporate information,and thereby inhibits its financializationFurther research has shown that microprudential supervision of commercial banks has a more significant inhibitory effect on corporate financialization,but the coordination of macroprudential supervision and microprudential supervision can enhance their respective effectsThis paper clarifies the role of financial regulation on micro enterprises,constructs a prudential supervision indicator system for Chinese commercial banks,and further explores its micro impact,providing a decisionmaking basis for the authorities to guide the real economy through macro regulation to “move back to reality”

 To build a highlevel socialist market economy system,we must adhere to the two “unwavering” principles Because China is developing its market economy under the basic socialist economic system,developing and strengthening stateowned economy helps to leverage the advantages of the socialist system and better leverage the role of the government To play the decisive role of the market in resource allocation,it is necessary to vigorously develop the private economy The key to building a socialist market economy system with coordinated development between stateowned economy and private economy is to optimize the layout of the stateowned economy and allow them to leverage their respective advantages in different fields,promoting each other and developing together The key to substantively promoting the optimization of the layout of the stateowned economy is to establish the standard of “optimization”,so as to establish an implementation plan based on this standard that includes where the stateowned economy should go and where it shouldnt go This article advocates to handle the relationship between the stateowned economy and the private economy based on the principle of classified reform,and achieve the optimization of the layout of the stateowned economy

Urban land tax takes land as the tax object and can be controlled by local governments to a large extent However,because it is a “small tax”,few researches focus on it This paper focuses on the impact of the local autonomy and collection methods of urban land tax on tax burden Based on the “regional” data of prefecturelevel cities in several provinces from 2007 to 2019 obtained through application and other channels,this study finds that the more economically developed the prefecturelevel city,the lower the actual tax rate of urban land tax That is,the phenomenon of “inversion” appeared The faster the economic growth over time,the more obvious the phenomenon of “inversion” This study finds that the nature of specific fixed tax and the hysteresis of adjusting the tax standard make it difficult for the tax burden to keep pace with economic growth,and the actual tax rate gradually deviates from the land market value Within the scope of tax autonomy,local governments may choose to “release water for fish farming” or collect all receivables from different perspectives of economic development or revenue collection,depending on the actual situation The research conclusion has certain significance for the improvement of local tax system and the understanding of tax competition phenomenon in China

Under the guidance of the “double carbon” goal,exploring the impact of green credit policies on the total factor productivity of enterprises will provide useful reference for promoting higher quality economic development Based on the data of Ashare listed industrial companies from 2003 to 2020,this paper uses the differenceindifference model to investigate the impact of green credit policy on the production efficiency and production mode of industrial companies with high pollution and high energy consumption It is found that,the green credit policy restrains the disposable capital factors and resource allocation efficiency of  “doublehigh” companies by imposing credit financing constraints on them,resulting in a decrease in their total factor productivity in the short term But in the long term,it can significantly improve the level of green technology innovation and promote the green transformation of their production mode Heterogeneity analysis shows that the policy has an asymmetric impact on the “double high” companies with different ownerships and different scales This conclusion provides policy implications for China to further use financial means to promote the realization of “double carbon” goals and achieve highquality economic development

The onechild (OC)policy is undoubtedly one of the most farreaching policies that has significantly impacted Chinese families and population structure in the past thirty years The unique “onechild” property of these individuals may influence families decisions regarding commercial insurance purchases through various channels Based on data from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS),this paper shows that OCs are less likely to purchase family insurance compared to nonOCs To explain it,this paper delves into four primary channels:financial knowledge,risk attitude,social interaction,and trust The first two channels are closely related to the concept of risk diversification,while the latter two are connected to the inherent trust property of insurance due to information asymmetry However,the research finds no significant differences between OC and nonOC individuals concerning financial knowledge and risk attitude,even when considering their economic status Instead,the actual reasons are that OCs have fewer social interactions and lower degrees of trust than nonOCs Both aspects suggest that OCs are less socially active than nonOCs
