Equity analysis of public service delivery among regions from temporal and spatial perspectives
构建了考虑投入和产出的公共服务供给水平测度框架,从时空角度分析中国区域间公平性,发现资源不均导致区域差异,且区域内不平等影响大于区域间。
This study focuses on exploring equity among regions regarding public service delivery. An analytical framework is established to measure the level of public service delivery considering input (resources) and output (results), and an equity analysis is conducted from temporal and spatial perspectives. The results show that there are disparities in the level of public service delivery among regions in China (mainly due to inequality in resources), and within-region inequality has a greater influence on overall regional inequality than between-region inequality. The proposed analytical framework can help governments make better decisions about public service delivery.
