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 کاملShadow prices, environmental stringency, and international competitiveness
Empirical tests of the relationship between international competitiveness and the severity of environmental regulations are hampered by the lack of pollution abatement cost data for nonU.S. countries. The theory of the firm suggests that environmental stringency can be measured by the difference between a polluting input’s shadow price and its market price. We make a first attempt at quantifyin...
متن کاملA Dynamic Approach to Calculate Shadow Prices of Water Resources for Nine Major Rivers in China
China is experiencing from serious water issues. There are many differences among the Nine Major Rivers basins of China in the construction of dikes, reservoirs, floodgates, flood discharge projects, flood diversion projects, water ecological construction, water conservancy management, etc. The shadow prices of water resources for Nine Major Rivers can provide suggestions to the Chinese governm...
متن کاملShadow Prices of SO2 Abatements for Regions in China
We use the linear programming approach to examine the overall macroeconomic performance and compute shadow prices of SO2 emission abatements for thirty regions in China during the 1996-2002 period. Our major findings are as follows: On average, the east is the most efficient and the west is the most inefficient during these seven years. The average efficiency of those regions with serious acid ...
