| With the deepening of the research on global resources and environment,the transformation of resource-based cities has become a major issue that needs to be addressed urgently in China’s economic and social spheres.The National Sustainable Development Plan for Resource-Based Cities(2013-2020)issued by The State Council in 2013 defines 262resource-based cities,among which Heilongjiang province has 11,accounting for 4.2% of the total,making it the province with the most resource-based cities in China.Since the 1990 s,some resource-based cities in Heilongjiang Province began to experience a decline in coal reserves and gradually entered the later stages of resource exploitation.The problems of resource-based cities such as declining resource reserves and serious environmental pollution urgently require the implementation of green transformation development,accelerate the transformation of the economic development mode and explore a sustainable development path suitable for themselves.Based on a large amount of relevant literature from home and abroad,this paper evaluates the effect of economic green transformation in resource-based cities in Heilongjiang Province and analyses the combination of factors and improvement paths that affect the effect of transformation.Firstly,it explains the relevant concepts and theories involved in the research,analyzes the development status of resource-based cities in Heilongjiang Province from three perspectives of economy,society and resources and environment,and points out the problems existing in the green economic transformation of resource-based cities in Heilongjiang Province.Then,an evaluation index system for the green transformation of resource-based cities was constructed by selecting appropriate evaluation indicators based on relevant principles,and a comprehensive index for the green transformation of resource-based cities in Heilongjiang Province was found by using the entropy value method and the comprehensive evaluation method,aiming to objectively and truly reflect the actual situation of the green transformation of resource-based cities.Finally,fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis(fs QCA)is used to study the combination path of influencing factors that affect the effect of resource-based cities’ economic green transformation in Heilongjiang Province.The results show that there are three paths that can improve the effect of resource-based cities’ economic green transformation.According to the core factors.They are divided into two categories according to their core causal conditions: government-supported transformation paths and transformation paths driven by both opening up to the outside world and technological progress.There are four ways to produce the non-high economic green transformation effect,and there is an asymmetric causal relationship with the high economic green transformation effect.According to the research results,suggestions such as increasing government support,improving the degree of opening up to the outside world and optimizing the environment for scientific and technological innovation were put forward in a targeted manner,which provided a reference for accelerating the green transformation process of the resource-based urban economy in Heilongjiang Province. |
