中国对外直接投资、研发技术溢出与技术进步

摘要/Abstract

摘要： 本文从投资国自主创新能力和全要素生产率两个角度构建模型检验了中国对外直接投资的逆向技术溢出效应,考察了国内研发和人力资本吸收要素对该效应的影响。研究发现:短期内,对外直接投资促进了国内创新能力的提升,中国分别在1992年和1990年达到了国内研发和人力资本的“吸收门槛”;长期内,对外直接投资也促进了全要素生产率的提升,中国在1990年达到了国内研发存量的“吸收门槛”,而人力资本则未显现“门槛”效应。总体来看,对外直接投资提升了中国国内的创新能力和全要素生产率,促进了中国的技术进步。

Abstract: In this paper, we construct models from angles of investment country's independent innovation capability and total factor productivity to test reverse technical spillover and the influence that the absorption capacity have on the reverse technical spillover. The main conclusions are as follows. In the short term, outward foreign direct investment has promoted domestic innovation capability. China has surpassed the domestic R&D absorption and human capital absorption threshold in 1992 and 1990 respectively. In the long term, under the absorption of domestic R&D and human capital, outward foreign direct investment has also promoted the total factor productivity. China has surpassed the domestic R&D absorption threshold in 1990, and has no threshold in human capital. Overall, outward foreign direct investment has promoted China's technical progress by raising domestic innovation capacity and total factor productivity.

Key words: outward foreign direct investment, international R&D spillover, technical progress, absorptive capacity
