报告内容简介：

While decentralization has incentivized local governments to compete for capital and promote economic growth (race to the top), it also gives rise to local protectionism and market segmentation (race to the bottom). In the last one or two decades, China has experienced a substantial shift from goods to factor market segmentation. Contrary to previous work that has predominantly focused on final goods market integration, this paper examines the scope and causes of domestic factor market segmentation in China. Based on the framework of Hsieh and Klenow (2009), I introduce an approach to measure factor market segmentation at the city-pair level. In the empirical analysis, I investigate the effects of jurisdictional borderon market segmentation, to account for the consequences of inter-governmental competition.
