基于产业集群的工业化模式对农村贫困影响的研究

One of the goals of human society pursuing is reducing poverty. The cluster-based industrialization model has played a key role in generating employment and reducing poverty in East Asian countries during the Last Half-Century. However, there are no deeply empirical studies to test the effects of cluster-based industrialization on the rural poverty alleviation. This study aims to systemically compare the experience and lessons of cluster-based development model in China. First, the study will explore the underlying mechanisms of how clustering can help reduce poverty by comparing four in-depth case studies in China. Second, using economic census data at the county level, survey data of Rural China Fixed Point Observations, survey data of Chinese Household Income Project(CHIP), and Survey data of China Household Finance survey(CHFS), the study will empirically evaluate as to what extent cluster-based rural industrialization model has contributed to poverty alleviation in China; Third, through the comparative studies, we will formulate some new hypotheses regarding cluster-based rural industrialization and poverty reduction. At last, we would summarize the policy recommendations to promote the germination and growth of the cluster-based development model. This study will not only contribute to the literature of development economics by integrating the cluster-based development model with the framework of mainstream economics, but also shed important light on anti-poverty strategies in Western china, African and South Asian countries.

减少贫困与促进发展是人类社会一直追求的目标。东亚地区最近半个世纪的发展实践表明，基于产业集群的工业化发展模式对农村贫困的减少发挥了重要作用。然而已有研究主要是个案剖析，尚未有大样本实证研究深入、系统地检验发展中国家产业集群对农村贫困的影响，从而未能构建出一套切实可行的政策框架。本项目首先通过深入对比分析中国不同区域四个产业集群的发展对当地农村贫困的影响，总结产业集群促进农村减贫的作用机制；然后采用县级统计数据、经济普查数据、农村固定观察点数据、中国家庭收入调查数据和中国家庭金融调查数据，实证检验产业集群对农村减贫的影响程度；最后，总结上述案例与实证研究，结合相关文献，进行理论提升，进而提出相应的政策建议。本项目研究不仅具有重要理论意义，而且所得出的政策建议能够为中国欠发达地区以及非洲、南亚等贫困地区的农村减贫事业提供政策参考。

减少贫困与促进发展是中国政府工作的重点之一，也是人类社会一直追求的目标。东亚地区最近半个世纪的发展实践表明，基于产业集群的工业化发展模式对农村贫困的减少发挥了重要作用。然而已有研究主要是个案剖析，尚未有大样本实证研究深入、系统地检验发展中国家产业集群对农村贫困的影响，从而未能构建出一套切实可行的政策框架。本项目首先通过深入对比分析中国不同区域产业集群的发展，总结产业集群促进农村减贫的作用机制；然后采用微观数据实证检验产业集群对农村减贫的影响程度；同时，利用历史数据、省际数据等进一步检验了影响经济社会长期发展的因素和内在机制，在市场制度、技术创新等方面对产业集群发展的演化过程及对农村减贫的意义进行了补充；最后，总结上述案例与实证研究，结合相关文献，进行理论提升，进而提出相应的政策建议。本项目研究不仅具有重要理论意义，而且所得出的政策建议能够为中国欠发达地区以及非洲、南亚等贫困地区的农村减贫事业提供政策参考。本课题研究共发表国外TOP期刊《Food Policy》论文一篇，国内权威期刊《管理世界》、《经济学（季刊）》共四篇，其他国内外期刊共五篇。培养了3名博士生，2名硕士生和16名本科生。
