Fiscal Decentralization and Regional System of Carbon Emission Reduction:An Empirical Research Based on the Provincial in China
基于新经济地理视角,利用1995-2019年28个省份面板数据,用随机前沿分析法测算全要素碳减排效率,发现财政分权与碳减排效率呈倒U型关系,市场整合能削弱其负面效应。
Based on the perspective of new economic geography, we analyzed the micro mechanism of the establishment of carbon emissions standards by the local government under the influence of factors such as initial endowment and local population, and puts forward the hypothesis that fiscal decentralization has a nonlinear effect on carbon emission reduction efficiency, etc. Then, by using the panel data of 28 provinces and cities in 1995-2019, we calculated carbon emission reduction efficiency in view of total factor through the method of stochastic frontier analysis(SFA). Finally, we proved the inverted u-shaped relationship between fiscal decentralization and carbon emission reduction efficiency.Meanwhile, we found the degree of market integration can weaken the negative effects of fiscal decentralization on carbon emission reduction efficiency.
