Abstract
The innovative city pilot policy (ICPP) is an essential manifestation of China’s construction of an innovative and green-driven development country. We incorporated urban green total factor productivity (GTFP) growth into the evaluation of ICPP. Based on the panel data of 223 cities in China from 2005 to 2020, we used the difference-in-differences model to empirically assess the influence and mechanism of the ICPP on urban GTFP growth. The main results show that (i) The ICPP has maintained an effectively fluctuating promotion on urban GTFP growth, mainly manifested in the urban green technological progress improvement. (ii) The ICPP has urban heterogeneity in promoting GTFP growth in pilot cities, mainly affecting key cities such as provincial capitals. (iii) The interaction between the agglomeration of producer services and the ICPP inhibits GTFP growth in pilot cities.
期刊介绍：
The Chinese Journal of Population, Resources and Environment (CJPRE) is a peer-reviewed international academic journal that publishes original research in the fields of economic, population, resource, and environment studies as they relate to sustainable development. The journal aims to address and evaluate theoretical frameworks, capability building initiatives, strategic goals, ethical values, empirical research, methodologies, and techniques in the field. CJPRE began publication in 1992 and is sponsored by the Chinese Society for Sustainable Development (CSSD), the Research Center for Sustainable Development of Shandong Province, the Administrative Center for China's Agenda 21 (ACCA21), and Shandong Normal University. The Chinese title of the journal was inscribed by the former Chinese leader, Mr. Deng Xiaoping. Initially focused on China's advances in sustainable development, CJPRE now also highlights global developments from both developed and developing countries.
