ABSTRACT
This study applies a recently developed bootstrap multivariate panel Granger causality test to examine the causal relationship between international tourism receipts and economic growth in 20 regions of China for the period from 1995 to 2018. The results support evidence for the growth hypothesis in regions, such as Anhui, Henan, Hubei, Ningxia, and Shaanxi. A reverse relationship supports evidence of the conservation hypothesis for regions, such as Hunan and Inner Mongolia. In addition, a reciprocal causal relationship was found in Guangxi, Qinghai, Tibet, and Yunnan while the result of a neutrality hypothesis supported 9 of these 20 major regions (i.e., Chognqing, Gansu, Guizhou, Heilongjiang, Jiangxi, Jilin, Shanxi, Sichuan, and Xinjiang).
摘要
本研究应用拔靴多变量面板的格兰杰因果关系来检验中国20个地区1995至2018年间的国际旅游收入与经济增长之间的因果关系, 并解释这些地区的相关性与异质性。实证结果, 支持了增长假说, 例如安徽, 河南, 湖北, 宁夏和陕西等地区。支持经济成长驱动旅游发展假说的关系, 例如湖南与内蒙古地区。此外, 广西, 青海, 西藏和云南发现了支持互惠的因果关系, 而支持中立假设的结果有20个地区中的9个地区 (即重庆, 甘肃, 贵州, 黑龙江, 江西, 吉林, 山西, 四川和新疆)。
