近年來中國在經濟上的成就是有目共賭的，並儼然成為帶動世界經濟成長的重要推動力。為因應社會主義市場經濟的建立和發展，並解決原稅制與市場經濟發展不相配合的問題，中國自1980年起進行多次的財政改革，將中央政府的財政權力下放給地方政府。也由於此一「財政分權」的設計，加強地方政府發展經濟的財政誘因，不但帶動了地方經濟的發展，也因地方財政收入增加而提高了地方公共財的投資，更進一步的促進經濟成長。然而，隨著地方經濟的發展和勢力的壯大，「先發地區」政府利用其經濟優勢，向中央或上級政府爭取更多的政策優惠和發展資源；但對於「後發地區」政府，由於經濟落後，因而與中央談判的籌碼不多，致使各地方政府分配到的財政資源殊異。 本篇文章之主要研究目的，即為探討改革開放後中國地方財政不均度對經濟成長的影響。本研究將利用1979年至2006年的時間序列資料來分析，中國地方財政分配不均度對於其經濟成長是否呈現正向的貢獻。於本研究中，將回顧現有文獻中，關於地方財政分配不均度對經濟成長影響之相關理論與實證文獻。其次，本文也將清楚地介紹與說明，改革開放以來中國地方財政分配不均度與其經濟成長間關係之現況。再者，本研究將建立九組實證模型，並透過共整合ARDL模型來試圖捕捉到更全面性的中國地方財政不均度與其經濟成長之關係。本文主要發現可分為長期與短期兩部分。先就長期而言，中國地方財政不均度對其經濟成長有著顯著且為正向的關係。再就短期而言，中國地方財政不均度對其經濟成長則呈現不顯著或顯著且為正向的關係。最後，為了降低實證模型發生錯誤的機會，並使研究過程更為嚴謹，本研究將對實證模型和估計結果使用更多方法檢定。 / The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of regional fiscal distribution inequality on the economic growth in post-reform China. By using of the time-series data during the period of 1979-2006, this study analyzes whether or not China’s regional fiscal distribution inequality provides a positive effect for economic growth. Both theoretical papers and empirical papers related to the relationship between regional fiscal distribution inequality and economic growth are reviewed. This study establishes nine empirical models and are estimated by ARDL with cointegration model which attempts to catch the relationship more comprehensively between regional fiscal distribution inequality and the economic growth in China. The main finding of this study is that China’s regional fiscal distribution inequality has the significantly positive effect on its economic growth in the long run. In the short run, China’s regional fiscal distribution inequality has the significantly positive effect or not has an effect on its economic growth. Finally, in order to reduce the mistakes occurred in positive models and enable the study more rigorous, this study uses more methods to test the models and the result.

1992年鄧小平「南巡」之後，上海房地產業頓時成為全世界投資者所矚目的焦點。伴隨著上海經濟的急速成長、房地產市場的豐厚利潤、以及對人民幣升值的強烈預期，境外資金不斷湧入上海市進行房地產投資。節節高升的房價最終造成中國政府的注意，限制外資進入房地產市場成為大陸宏觀調控的重點。然而外資是否為房價高漲的主因，至今為止依然是爭論不休。到底外資是大陸房地產價格居高不下的罪魁禍首，還是宏觀調控政策下的代罪羔羊，為了清楚了解FDI對大陸房地產價格到底造成何種影響，本文主要研究目的主要有以下兩點：一為探討FDI金額的變動對上海房地產價格波動是否造成影響，二為研究影響上海房價波動的總體經濟因素為何。 根據實證結果顯示，就長期關係而言，外商直接投資、物價、利率、匯率、收入，皆與房價呈現正向關係，股價則與房價呈現反向關係。就短期關係而言，影響房價的因素有外商直接投資、利率、收入、以及房價本身，以上皆與房價呈現正向關係；整體而言短期物價對房價沒有顯著影響，但就個別月份而言，落後兩期的物價指數與房價指數呈現反向關係；短期匯率波動對房價的影響相互抵銷，加總後的影響效果為零，而短期股價則對房價沒有顯著影響，宏觀調控脈絡下的「限外令」並沒能使房市降溫。總的來說，外商直接投資雖對房價有正向影響，但影響最劇的因素卻是匯率與利率，因此外商直接投資並非上海房價飆漲的罪魁禍首，亦不是宏觀調控政策下的代罪羔羊。大陸政府拿外資開刀，其目的不外乎是為了「殺雞儆猴」，借此達到抑制房價的目的。 / The real estate has become a burgeoning industry in Shanghai since the Mainland deceased leader Deng Xiao-ping made his remarkable inspection tour of the South in 1992. Due to the fast growing market and desirable profit, uncountable foreign capital has flowed into the real estate industry of Shanghai. Housing prices have soared and already drew the attention of the authorities, which causes the restraint on real estate investment. Does foreign capital matter to real estate prices? What economic factors cause the movement of real estate prices? The purposes of this paper are to investigate the relationship between foreign direct investment and real estate prices of Shanghai. The empirical result shows: FDI, CPI, interest rate, exchange rate and income have significant positive effects on real estate prices in the long run. Nevertheless, stock market has significant negative effect. In the short run, however, FDI, interest rate, income and housing price itself have significant positive effects on real estate prices. In addition, overall CPI has no effect on real estate prices while some individual months of CPI have negative effect; exchange rate and stock market also have no effect on real estate prices in general. Furthermore, the policy of restraining foreign capital on real estate investment does not induce declining housing prices. To sum up, exchange rate is the main reason that affects real estate prices of Shanghai. FDI is not the “chief criminal” nor a scapegoat, neither. Penalizing the foreign capital is simply a warning from the Mainland government to seize the “hot money” in the real estate market.

天津經過百年來的努力發展，以及改革開放後濱海新區在「十一五規劃」被納入國家發展戰略，不但成為中國大陸高收入的城市，亦是眾多外資亟欲前往的投資地點。從天津三級產業結構的觀察，可以發現雖然目前天津的第二、三級產業的分布仍與先進國家有所落差，但整體來說，仍是逐漸從二三一的產業結構往三二一的產業結構發展。但1997年至2006年仍發生工業化現象，即工業部門產值比重增加。這段時間亦伴隨產業升級，使得產業結構從消費財產業轉成為資本財產業。由政策上觀察，此結果主要與天津濱海新區的發展關係最密切。 從本研究的ARDL時間序列模型的估計中發現，造成天津工業化的最主要因素為資本勞動比的提升與貿易依存度的增加，而造成產業升級的主要因素則為外資與財政的科技支出。天津政府在經濟迅速發展的條件下，調節產業結構的均衡發展亦是重要任務，使得天津以及中國大陸其他城市能夠早日進入已開發國家的產業結構模式。 / After centuries of efforts to develop and the Binhai New Area being writing into national development strategies in the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" after reform and open-up, Tianjin has not only become the high-income cities in mainland China, but also a location that many foreign investment is anxious to go. According to the observation of Thrice Industrial structure in Tianjin, there is a big gap that the distribution of Tianjin’s secondary and tertiary industry with compared with other advanced countries. However, on the whole, there is still a gradual shift from the industrial structure of two-three-one to three-two-one. From 1997 to 2006, there is still a phenomenon of industrialization in Tianjin, which means that the percentage of secondary industry increasing the whole industrial sectors’ GDP. It’s also accompanied with industrial upgrading, which means that industrial structure will turn from consumer goods industries to capital property industries. From the prospect of policy, this result is most closely related to the development of the Tianjin Binhai New Area. By using ARDL time series model, this study estimates found that the most important factor of Tianjin industrialization was the capital-labor ratio improvement and the increase of trade dependence. The main factor of causing the industrial upgrading was the foreign investment and finance spending on technology. Under the rapid economic development, adjusting the industrial structure for balanced development is also Tianjin Government’s important task that could help Tianjin and other cities in mainland China as early as possible to enter the mode of development of the country's industrial structure.

2006年，中國大陸國務院將天津定位為北方經濟中心，天津的金融發展加速，金融機構家數及存貸款餘額不斷增加。當金融市場完善，有助降低交易成本使資金的融通管道暢通，居民可透過金融市場融通資金來從事更多消費，因此本研究目的為探討金融發展是否也是影響居民消費及恩格爾係數的因素。 本研究以金融深化程度及銀行效率指標兩項金融發展指標，來衡量天津的金融發展程度。實證結果顯示，短期下實質人均儲蓄、都市化程度對居民消費有負向影響；物價指數、實質人均GDP、實質人均可支配年收入與金融深化程度對居民消費有正向影響，銀行效率則對居民消費無影響；而長期下，實質人均儲蓄與都市化程度對消費有負向影響，物價指數、實質人均可支配年收入及銀行效率對消費有正向影響，金融深化程度及實質人均GDP則與居民消費無影響。 在恩格爾係數方面，短期下依賴比、實質人均可支配年收入對居民消費有負向影響；金融深化程度、都市化程度對居民消費有正向影響。長期下金融深化程度對恩格爾係數無影響，但銀行效率卻對恩格爾係數有正向影響。依賴比與實質人均可支配年收入呈負向關係，但金融發展程度與銀行效率對居民消費確實有促進作用。最後本研究建議天津政府除了積極促進消費的同時，也應致力於提高居民實質人均可支配年收入水準及提高銀行資金運用效率。 / In 2006, The State Council in China set Tianjin as the economic center in the northway of China., the financial development in Tianjin has speeded up. The numbers of the financial institutions and the balance of deposit and loan have risen up. When the financial market becomes mature that will reduce the transaction cost and consumers will have more financial accesses and opportunities to finance. Therefore, this paper is aimed to discuss whether the financial development is a factor that influence the consumption and Engel’s coefficient or not. This paper used two financial development indicators to measure the financial development in Tianjin- Financial irrelevant ratio (FIR) ,and bank efficiency. The empirical results shows that real personal savings, and urbanization have negative influence on consumption whereas the price index, real GDP per capita, real personal disposal income and financial irrelevant ratio have positive influence on consumption and banking efficiency has no influence on consumption in the short run. In the long run, however, real personal savings and urbanization have negative influence on consumption but price index, real personal disposal income and banking efficiency have the positive influence on consumption. But financial irrelevant ratio and real GDP per capita have no influence on consumption. In the Engel’s coefficient aspect, dependency ratio and real personal disposal income have negative influence. The Financial irrelevant ratio, urbanization and food price index have positive influence in the short run. In the long run, financial irrelevant ratio has no significant influence on Engel’s coefficient but banking efficiency has positive influence on consumption. Dependency ratio and real personal disposal income have negative influence on consumption. Therefore, this paper finds out that the FIR and the bank efficiency have pushed up the consumption in the short run and long run respectively. This paper recommends that the Tianjin’s government should not only to push up the consumption but also should be dedicated to raise up the personal disposal income and banking efficiency.
