论文将研究的视点从关注资源禀赋与经济发展的关系,转向资源禀赋对资源利用效率的影响上,选取了中国大陆31个省(自治区、直辖市,未计算香港、澳门地区)2008年能源和水资源的面板数据,力图用统计模型来验证资源禀赋对资源利用效率存在负相关作用的假说,即资源越丰富的地区,对该种资源使用效率往往越低。研究发现:资源禀赋对资源利用效率存在显著的逆向影响,资源的"诅咒"效应不仅作用于区域经济发展上,也同样作用于资源利用效率上;然而,不同于经济诅咒,资源禀赋与资源利用效率之间的这种负相关关系在分散型资源上体现更加明显。对区域资源禀赋与资源利用效率之间影响关系与作用机制更深入的研究将为科学、高效的资源管理政策提供理论支持。
Resources utilization efficiency is very crucial to natural resource conservation and emission reduction, especially under the policy framework of energy saving and emission reduction nowadays in China. As a supplement to resource curse theory, a hypothesis was put forward with regard to regional resource endowment and resource utilization efficiency. Therefore, the panel data of energy and water resources of 31 provincial-level administrative regions in mainland China (not including Hong Kong and Macao due to no data) in 2008 was adopted to make statistical analysis to verify the negative effects of the regional resource endowment on resource utilization efficiency. The results showed that, there has been obvious negative effect between resources endowment and resources utilization efficiency, i.e., the resource efficiency is relatively lower in resources rich area and vice versa. It can be prudently concluded that, in addition to economic development, the curse effect is applied to resource utilization efficiency associated with resources endowment. In comparison with concentrated resources as mineral resources, dispersed resources as water is more sensitive in utilization efficiency affected by resources endowment, which is much in contrast to the curse associated with economic development. The results obtained in this analysis have much implication to policy making with regard to resources utilization efficiency.
