內(nèi)容摘要：

This paper explores the impact of environmental regulation on total factor productivity growth, taking spatial heterogeneity into account, for the years 1992-2008 periods in China, and thus providing an understanding of spatial linkage between the environment and economic growth, based on the two stages of DEA-spatial Durbin models. The empirical findings are: (1) TFP growth increased slightly over the years for 1992-2008 periods in China, depending mainly on the technical change. (2)Spatial dependence and their productivity effect are positive to be upheld. (3)The local environmental regulation has a positive impact on TFP growth, confirming the Porter Hypothesis. On the other hand, the neighboring environmental regulatory has a negative effect on the local TFP growth, and moreover, the economic development of the province is more vulnerable to neighoring environmental regulatory effort with geographic-based linkage than that of the income-based one. (4)There is little evidence supportive of an environmental race to the bottom in Chinese provincial environmental regulation .
