摘要
主要考察了中国技术性贸易壁垒对国内制造业进口边际的影响以及中国在自由贸易协定框架下所采取的技术性贸易壁垒合作对于上述影响的调节作用。考虑到技术性贸易壁垒可能存在的内生性,采用工具变量回归,得到以下主要结论:技术性贸易壁垒在总体上对中国进口种类扩张和进口数量增长具有显著促进效应,其进口价格边际效应不太显著;技术性贸易壁垒对种类扩张和数量增长的促进作用分别主要存在于发达国家和发展中国家;中国所实施的技术性贸易壁垒合作可进一步扩大技术性贸易壁垒的上述积极效应。因此,中国应逐步完善国内技术性贸易壁垒体系,继续以减少贸易扭曲为目标来展开技术性贸易壁垒合作,并增强各项合作措施的可执行性,以此扩大中国进口贸易利得。
This paper mainly investigates the impact of China’ s TBT on the import margins of domestic manufacture and the moderating role of TBT cooperation on the above impact. Considering the possible endogeneity with TBT,the regression with instrumental variable estimation mainly comes to following conclusions. Firstly, China ’ s TBT promotes the growth of import variety and quantity significantly on the whole,while its effect on the price margin is not significant. Secondly,TBT’ s positive effects on the growth of import variety and import quantity exist within the developed and developing countries respectively. Thirdly,China’ s measures of TBT cooperation can increase the positive effect of TBT on import variety and quantity. Therefore,in order to expand the import gains,China should improve the domestic system of TBT gradually,keep cooperating on TBT with the goal of reducing trade distortion,and enhance the feasibility of TBT cooperation measures.
