摘要
本文以2004~2017年中国30个省的公共部门投入和产出数据为样本,基于Bootstrap的Malmquist指数及其分解方法,测算地方公共部门2004~2017年以及各个连续时间段的公共服务生产率、效率和技术的变动情况。进而通过构建Tobit回归模型,检验财政分权对地方义务教育服务、医疗卫生服务、公共就业服务和基本民生公共服务的效率提高或实施技术创新意愿的影响。实证结果显示:除了医疗卫生服务外,财政分权对地方其他基本民生公共服务的生产率变动和技术进步指数均为显著负相关,分权程度越高的地区,地方公共部门推行技术创新的意愿越低,其公共服务生产技术退步的可能性就越大,且对地方政府公共服务的生产率具有不利影响。
The paper uses the Malmquist index and its decomposition method based on Bootstrap to measure the productivity and the change of efficiency and technology of local public services in every successive time period during 2004-2017,based on the input and output data of 30 provinces in China.Then,the paper uses Tobit model to test the effect of fiscal decentralization on the efficiency improvement or technological innovation of several local public service,including compulsory education services,health services,employment services and livelihood services.The empirical results show that:except health services,fiscal decentralization will adversely affect the productivity and the change of technology of other types of local public services.The local government with higher degree of decentralization will have fewer incentives to promote technological innovation,which leads to production technology regression and has negative effect on the productivity of the public services.
