中文摘要:

      从社会资本的认知维度和结构维度出发,系统分析了社会资本对流通产业发展的直接作用和间接作用机理,并构建了中介效应模型,以我国2005—2014年的省际面板数据进行了实证检验。研究发现,基于认知和结构两个维度的社会资本水平对流通产业发展的直接作用均显著。同时,社会资本通过降低流通领域的交易成本,间接促进了流通产业的发展。分东中西部地区的估计结果也大体一致,表明回归模型具有稳健性。应营造诚实互信的社会氛围,降低流通环节的交易成本,促进市场法律规制体系的完善,从而进一步促进流通产业发展。

英文摘要:

      From the perspective of cognitive dimension and structural dimension of social capital, this paper systematically analyzes the direct and indirect mechanism of social capital to the development of circulation industry, and constructs a mediating effect model to make an empirical study on China's provincial panel data during the years from 2005 to 2014. It is found that there is a significant direct effect of both cognitive dimension and structural dimension of social capital upon the development of circulation industry. At the same time, social capital indirectly promotes the development of circulation industry by reducing the transaction cost in the circulation field. The results are broadly consistent in the eastern region and the mid-western region, indicating that the model is robust. We should build a social atmosphere of honesty and mutual trust, reduce the transaction cost in circulation, and promote the improvement of law and regulation system on the market, so as to further promote the development of circulation industry.
