Currently,China is fully accelerating to construct the level of basic public service,and the word about "basic public service" has received wide attention.According to the“13th Five-Year" Boosting Equalization of Basic Public Service,which was issued on March 02,2017,we know the basic public services mainly include eight fields:labor and employment,social insurance,social services,basic public education,housing security,public cultural and sports,health care and basic public services for the disabled people,and covers 81 projects.Providing basic public services for citizens is not only the requirement of building a service-oriented government,but also the requirement to promote the equalization of basic public services.This also requires that all aspects of basic public services can be fully developed,and make the basic public service system more perfect.In a word,basic public service is the career of the whole society,not only need the strong support of the government,but also need the support of the society,the family and the citizens,which is of great significance for promoting economic development and social stability,enhancing the well-being of the people,and realizing the Chinese dream of great national renewal.At the same time,"economic growth" still does not leave the eyes of the people.It refers to the phenomenon in which a country's per capita output or per capita income continues to increase during a given period of time.According to the economic growth theory of Cobb-Douglas production function,we can see that the factors that determine the economic growth are divided into three categories:the first is material capital,which refers to the long-standing form of production materials,such as machinery,equipments,factories,buildings,transportation facilities,etc.It occupies the leading position in the traditional industrial economy;the second is the level of labor force,which refers to the capacity for physical labor,and that is the total of mental and physical strength contained in the human body.The broad sense of the labor force refers to the whole population,while the narrow sense of the labor force refers to the ability of the population;the third is technological progress,the development of technology can improve the level of productivity.Therefore,the paper researched the basic public service and its impact on economic growth in a more scientific and comprehensive way,and to pave the way for realizing the steady development of economic growth better.Above all,this paper researched the basic public service level and its impact on economic growth of 31 provinces,municipal cites and municipalities in our country,which is of great significance to promote the equalization of basic public services and optimize the basic public services to promote the economic growth.First of all,this paper uses SPSS22.0 software to analyze the number of employed persons in urban areas by the end of the year,the number of full-time teachers in general primary schools,the number of medical and health institutions and other 16 basic public service indicators by factor analysis.After KMO Test,Bartley Sphere Test and Principal Component Analysis,three common factors of public welfare factors,public utility factors and public safety factors were extracted,and their contribution rate of factor variance were 0.58532,0.19138 and 0.07618 respectively.We can see that the public welfare factors contributes most to the total score,and the provinces with high comprehensive factor scores included Guangdong,Jiangsu,Shandong,Zhejiang,Henan,Sichuan,Hebei,Beijing,Hunan and Liaoning.Then,based on the factor analysis,we used GeoDal.6.5 software to research the spatial differentiation characteristics of basic public services between provinces.The results showed that the values of Global Moran's I are greater than 0 in 2001 to 2015,indicated that the level of basic public services between the provinces in China has obvious spatial correlation,and Shanghai,Guangzhou and other eastern areas become the main focus of the HH area from the four-quadrant analysis.The western region has become the main focus of LL area due to remote location and traffic inconvenience and adverse natural conditions.Some provinces in the central region with the help of the eastern region's development opportunities,have become the hinterland of the economic development of the eastern provinces,under the effect of "trickle-down",the level of basic public service level has been gradually improved and reached the HL area.And for the other provinces in the central region,"the polarization effect" is greater than"trickle down effect" and generated spatial heterogeneity,making the regional resource flow to the eastern region,increasing the gap with the eastern region,and becomes the distribution area of LH District.On the whole,this spatial clustering of basic public service level has a decreasing trend from east to west obviously,and the development gap between east and west is still very serious.Finally,this paper used econometric analysis software stata13.0 and the selected sample data to construct the economic growth model through Cobb-Douglas production function.Under the premise of keeping the three control variables of material capital,labor force and technological progress unchanged,taking the general level of basic public services,public welfare factors,public utility factors and public safety factors as independent variables respectively,taking economic growth as the dependent variable,then studied the contribution of various independent variables to economic growth.The results showed that the contribution of public service is the greatest than others,and we can improve the level of basic public services and economic growth by enlarging the number of full-time primary school teachers and the number of public library institutions,expanding the highway construction,etc.Further,this paper puts forward some policy suggestions according to the research conclusion,including strengthening the exchanges and cooperation basic public services between different provinces and strengthening the supervision of the government to fulfill the construction of basic public service in view of the current situation and spatial differentiation characteristics of basic public service level between provinces in China,and increasing the input of the public utility services in views of the different contributions of various basic public service factors to economic growth.We hope that on the basis of understanding the problems about basic public service in China,It can not only promote the balanced development of basic public services between provinces and regions,but also promote economic growth and achieve the goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects soon.
