The Spatial-temporal Evolution and Its Influence Factors of FDI in China
以中国31个省级区域为单元，利用空间自相关和地理加权回归模型，分析了1985-2010年外商直接投资的时空演变及其影响因素，发现各省份FDI水平差异显著且空间相关性很强。
Foreign Direct Investment(FDI) is a result between multinational company investment demand and the environment of the host country's economic as well as its policy. The paper takes 31 provincial regions in Chinese mainland as the research unit. Some relevant indicators have been selected with the spatial autocorrelation and geographically weighted regression model to analysis the special- temporal evolution of FDI in China and its influence factors from 1985 to 2010. The results show that:①There are significant differences of the level of FDI in different provinces, and there are variable features in different periods;②There is a very strong spatial correlation in the level of actual utilization of FDI in China, and there has been an increase in its concentration trend from 1985 to 2010;③The local spatial autocorrelation index shows that the level of the actual utilization of provincial FDI in China has shown a sustained non-equilibrium situation,and the special-temporal has not fundamentally changed;④Further study found that the spatial concentration difference between the cumulative effects, economic conditions, infrastructure, policy and market environment is remarkable
