Regional Disparity of Productivity in China: A Stochastic Frontier Approach
We attempt to use a group-specific stochastic frontier method to analyze temporal change in the regional productivity performance of China. This method allows us to separate China into three different regional groups, namely the eastern, central, and western, each of which can have its own temporal movement of inefficiency. Our estimation indicates that Shanghai is the most efficient economy in...
متن کاملIndustrial Productivity Convergence in China
This paper examines the convergence process of industrial productivity between Chinese regions. Both σ and β convergences are investigated using a panel data set of 30 provinces and autonomous regions over the period 1985-1999. Unconditional σ and β convergence methods fail to detect productivity convergence over the whole sample period, although they suggest convergence during a sub-period 198...
متن کاملFinancial Reforms, Growth and Regional Disparity in Post-reform China
In this paper, by employing the Generalized Method of Moment (GMM) techniques and Chinese provincial level data from 1991 to 2003, we empirically investigate the relationship between finance and growth in post-reform China. We find that financial development significantly promotes economic growth in coastal regions but not in inland regions; the weak finance-growth nexus in inland provinces has...

Though still considered an emerging market, the speed of its economic growth places it in direct competition with more mature economies, such as the United States and the European Union, both economical...
متن کاملSources of Productivity Disparities in Regional Grain Production in China
The study utilises survey data on 1000 households in rural China to investigate sources of disparities in factor productivities for rice, wheat and maize in different provinces. The effects of natural endowments are emphasised. It is found that for respective crops, the level of factor productivities is generally higher in their major producing areas than that in the non-major producing areas d...
