Analysis On China’s Regional Imbalance In Construction Industrial Growth And Its Influencing Factors

While China construction industry, as one of the pillar industries of the national economy,is developing very fast, the development and growth of the regional construction industryshows the unbalanced situation. Some provinces have sustained and stable growth ofconstruction industry output, with slow output growth of others. The unbalanced growth willcause the unbalanced development of regional construction industry, so the study on thisphenomenon and its reason is extremely necessary.Based on economic growth theory and regional unbalanced growth theory, this thesis makean empirical analysis of the characteristics of regional construction industry unbalancedgrowth from growth rate, the total account of growth, growth benefits and growth mode. Theresults show that the relative unbalance of regional construction industry decreases, while therelative unbalance of the total account expands. The difference of level of growth benefitsamong the provinces is great, with the total account of the benefits expanding. In aspect ofgrowth mode, the relative unbalance of labor productivity tends to decrease, while the relativeunbalance of investment effect level is to enlarge. Totally, the gap between the backwardprovinces and developed provinces of construction industry is still great.In aspect of the characteristics of regional construction industry unbalanced growth, thisthesis makes an empirical analysis of growth rate, the total account of growth, growth benefitsand growth mode. The results show that the relative unbalance of regional constructionindustry decreases, while the relative unbalance of the total account expands. The differenceof level of growth benefits among the provinces is great, with the total account of the benefitsexpanding. In aspect of growth mode, the relative unbalance of labor productivity tends todecrease, while the relative unbalance of investment effect level is to enlarge. Totally, the gapbetween the backward provinces and developed provinces of construction industry is stillgreat.Secondly, with application of exploratory spatial data analysis method, spatial pattern andits evolution of unbalanced construction industry growth of the chines provinces are analyzed.The results show that spatial dependence and heterogeneity of unbalanced constructionindustry growth exist and China construction industry shows that the provinces with higherconstruction industry growth level clusters and the provinces with lower clusters. Thisphenomenon is more obvious since2002. At the same time, the construction industry growthrate some provinces showed a positive correlation with the initial level, and this preliminaryinfers that the unbalanced growth of the provincial construction industry output value tends to expand.In view of unbalanced growth situation of China construction industry, this thesis makes ananalysis from direct factors like human capital, material capital and indirect factors like theregional economy development level, policy support, demand structure. The analysis find thatthey are important factors of regional construction industry unbalanced growth such as humancapital, material capital, regional economy development level, marketization level,urbanization level and so on. Then this thesis discusses the ideas the coordinated growth ofthe regional construction industry from from the region, regional and national levels, and therelated measures are summarized.
