“…Lee (1994) investigates the relationship between FDI and regional development gap, and concludes that the difference in the amount of FDI contributes to China's regional disparity. Similar results can also be found in the analysis of Dayal-Gulati and Husain (2000). Young (2000) considers the role of local protectionism in explaining China's regional disparity.…”

Deepening financial development and rapid economic growth in China have been accompanied by widening income disparity between the coastal and inland regions. In this paper, by employing panel dataset for 29 Chinese provinces over the period of 1990-2001 and applying the generalized method of moment (GMM) techniques, we examine the impacts of financial development on China's growth performance. Our empirical results show that financial development significantly promotes economic growth in coastal regions but not in the inland regions; the weak finance-growth nexus in inland provinces may aggravate China's regional disparities.

“…Capital inflow, especially foreign direct investment (FDI), often brings with it new technology and management (Lee 1994;Dayal-Gulati and Husain 2000). Therefore, the greater the FDI inflow (denoted by FDI i ) into a province, the more advantages it has in technology progress.…”

“…The vitality of private enterprises in China has been due to their entry/adoption of labour-intensive industries/technologies, which are consistent with China's comparative advantages. Lee (1994) and Dayal-Gulati and Husain (2000) emphasize the effects of foreign direct investment (FDI) on regional disparities. However, they do not analyse factors determining the location and industrial distribution of FDI.…”

Development Strategies and Regional Income Disparities in China*

This paper argues that the regional income gap of China is endogenously determined by its long-term economic development strategy. Development strategies can be broadly divided into two mutually exclusive groups: (i) the comparative advantage-defying (CAD) strategy, which attempts to encourage firms to deviate from the economy's existing comparative advantages in their entry into an industry or choice of technology; and (ii) the comparative advantage-following (CAF) strategy, which attempts to facilitate the firms' entry into an industry or choice of technology according to the economy's existing comparative advantages.Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the government has pushed a CAD strategy, i.e., 'leap forward' strategy that emphasized the development of capitalintensive heavy industries. In most provinces, however, the priority industries under this strategy were inconsistent with the comparative advantage determined by the factor endowments in those provinces. Many enterprises in the priority industries were not viable in competitive markets and required interventions in the markets by the …/.
