摘要
文化交流与合作是"一带一路"战略的重要方面,而"一带一路"沿线国家文化距离对贸易往来的影响及其差异性有待深入探讨。从交易成本角度出发,借助Kogut和Singh等的方法构建跨国文化距离的测算指标,利用中国与"一带一路"沿线国家的双边贸易数据,实证探讨1993-2015年间中国与"一带一路"沿线国家文化距离对双边贸易关系的影响。结果表明:中国与"一带一路"沿线国家的文化距离对双边贸易流量有长期显著的负向影响,且这种影响在样本期间有逐渐加强的趋势,即沿线贸易国家与中国的文化距离越小,双边贸易往来越频繁。文化距离分项维度的实证结果也进一步证明了研究结论的稳健性。而细分地域与收入组别的估计结果表明,欧洲、中低等收入国家子样本中文化距离对双边贸易流量的负向影响更为明显,这意味着中国与欧洲、中低等收入沿线国家在文化融合与包容性方面仍存在较大的提升空间。鉴于此,在推进"一带一路"倡议的过程中应着力优化"软环境",逐步缩小中国与"一带一路"沿线国家的文化距离,坚持文化先行,通过加强文化交流与合作来化解和消除相互之间的沟通障碍与贸易壁垒,稳步推动中国与"一带一路"沿线国家之间的贸易规模扩大与贸易结构优化。
Cultural exchanges and cooperation is the key of construction of promoting Belt and Road In- itiative,,initiative. From the perspective of transaction cost, we calculate transnational cultural distance be-tween transnational countries with method of Kogut ＆Singh, and combine the bilateral trade data between Chi-na and countries along the Belt and Road Initiative to explore the effect of cultural distance on the bilateral trade relations during 1993 -2015. The results show that the cultural distance along the countries has a long - term negative impact on bilateral trade flows, which means that the smaller cultural distance is, the more bilat-eral trade flow is. The empirical results of the sub dimensions of cultural distance further prove the robustness of the conclusions. Furthermore, the effects of various cultural distances on bilateral trade flows are heteroge-neous. In addition, according to the estimated results of segmented regions and income groups, the negative effect of cultural distance on bilateral trade flows is more obvious in the samples of Europe and lower income countries, which shows that promoting cultural exchange and cultural integration between China and European countries still need to be improved. We should push forward to the goal of construction of ‘‘soft environment”, expanding and deepening cultural interaction and economic policy, narrowing cultural distances, and getting rid of the cultural obstacles that restricting the development of trade liberalization to promote bilateral trade scale and trade structure optimization.
