“…Many categories of industrial economy are in the industrial ecology that has spatial heterogeneity. Accurate identification of different regional industrial ecology, and reasonable allocation of resources are conducive to the sustainable industrial development, while unreasonable allocation of resources hinders industrial development ( Xu et al, 2022 ). To further investigate the intrinsic causes of the cultural resource curse, we place cultural resources into the economic ecology of cultural industries, and we first empirically examine the influencing factors of cultural industries and then conduct an empirical test on the transmission mechanism of the cultural resource curse in western China, where the cultural resource curse is severe.…”

Does cultural resource endowment backfire? Evidence from China’s cultural resource curse

Resource curse theory suggests that regions rich in natural resource endowments accumulate adverse economic competitive, but few studies have focused on causes and mechanisms of cultural resource curses. Since the development of the cultural industries is relatively backward in some regions with rich cultural resources in central and western China. Combined with the theory of cultural resources and the resource curse, we build cultural resource endowment and cultural resource curse coefficients and measure the distribution of cultural resource curses based on the dataset of 29 provinces in China covering 2000−2019. The results show that there is a serious cultural resource curse in western China. The causes of the cultural resource curse are multiple, place attachment and cultural field can influence cultural behaviors, and the environmental impact of industrial ecosystems causes path dependence in cultural resource exploration and cultural industry development. We further empirically tested the influence of cultural resources on cultural industries in different sub-regions of China and the transmission mechanism of the curse of cultural resources in western China. The results show that the influence of cultural resources on the cultural industries is not significant in the overall of China, but it is significantly negative in western China. The resource-dependent model of cultural industries development in western China has attracted more primary labor and crowded out government spending on education. Moreover, it hinders the upgrading of human resources and inhibits the modern innovative development of the cultural industries. This is an important reason for the curse of cultural resources in the development of cultural industries in western China.

“…To further verify the accuracy of the above regression results, and considering the number of samples and data availability, this paper uses the method of replacing the dependent variable for robustness testing. Specifically, based on the structural deviation index, the improved Thiel index [53,54] is used to measure industrial structure rationalization (LH). Moreover, according to the Perroux-Clark theory, the level of industrial structure upgrading (LG) is measured.…”

Elucidating the impacts of service industry’s agglomeration on the optimization of industrial structures holds paramount significance in advancing urban economic growth and fostering the coordinated and sustainable development of city economies. This study leverages panel data encompassing 251 prefecture-level cities spanning from 2003 to 2019, employing a spatial Dubin model to scrutinize the influence of distinct types of service industry agglomeration on industrial structure optimization. The results show that specialized agglomeration within the service sector significantly inhibits the rationalization of industrial structures and their underlying fundamentals. Conversely, heightened levels of agglomeration in diversified service industries facilitate the rationalization of industrial structure, predominantly driven by regional spatial spillover effects. Further analysis reveals heterogeneity in service industry agglomeration across cities of varying sizes concerning industrial structure optimization, notably accentuating underutilized spatial spillover effects in smaller cities. In light of these insights, this paper advocates for cities to capitalize on the agglomeration and spillover effects between the service industry and other sectors, strategically selecting optimal service industry agglomeration modes to propel industrial structure optimization.

“…Industrial ecologization refers to the integration of the concepts of ecological environment protection and sustainable development into industrial development (Xu et al, 2022). By optimizing industrial structure, improving resource utilization efficiency, reducing environmental pollution and ecological damage, and so forth, it aims to achieve coordinated development of economy, society, and environment.…”

In this study, we investigated the spatio‐temporal synergistic relationship between ecological urbanization (EU) and industrial eco‐efficiency (IEE) in the context of the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta region. The main findings are as follows: (1) EU and IEE generally exhibited similar spatial distribution patterns, with high values concentrated in the southern part of the delta and low values in the northern part and Anhui Province; there was also a high degree of coupling between the two systems. (2) IEE and EU's relationship presented a U‐shaped positive correlation trend from 2001 to 2019, and a positive correlation was observed in most cities, with highly correlated cities clustered in southern Zhejiang and Anhui province, while negative correlation cities scattered in a few cities in northern Zhejiang, northern Anhui, and southern Jiangsu. (3) Significantly spatial association characteristics were found between EU and IEE, with HEUHIEE type clustering mainly in southeastern delta cities, while the LEULIEE type slowly encroached upon northwest delta cities. (4). Synergistic promoting effects were identified between IEE and EU, whereby, the improvement of IEE in both local and neighboring cities contributed to promoting EU, and the progress of EU in both local and neighboring cities helped to promote IEE.
