Digital service trade has gradually become a key driving force for international trade and global economic recovery and growth. With its favorable policy environment and infrastructure, Zhejiang Province has witnessed rapid development in digital services trade. Based on data of China and Zhejiang Province from 2013 to 2022, this paper first analyzes the current situation of digital services trade in Zhejiang Province and its international competitiveness. The results show that the overall scale of digital services trade has expanded over the past decade, but its structure is relatively unreasonable. Moreover, its competitiveness is relatively strong and has an overall upward trend, but has weakened in recent years due to the decrease in export and the increase in import. This paper further conducts an empirical study on the influencing factors of digital services trade competitiveness in Zhejiang Province based on Porter's theory of national competitive advantage. The analysis shows that the export of services trade is most closely related to the digital services trade, while the foreign investment in actual use has a relatively weak correlation with the digital service trade due to its unclear driving effect on the export. R&D level, fixed asset investment, disposable income per capita, export of services trade, and the openness of digital services trade have a positive impact on its competitiveness, while the foreign investment in actual use has a negative effect. Finally, based on the research results, this paper puts forward corresponding recommendations.","PeriodicalId":117010,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Academic Research in Economics and Management Sciences","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128842501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A large body of literature was identified through a systematic search of several databases using relevant keywords. Through a rigorous filtering process, the selection was narrowed down to 88 articles, which are reviewed in depth to identify research gaps and contribute to the existing literature. The study highlights the importance of selecting appropriate indicators that capture the various aspects of poverty and go beyond monetary considerations. It highlights the importance of reliable and timely data, standardised measurement approaches and subjective assessments of well-being to capture people's life experiences. Multi-dimensional poverty indices, such as the Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) and the Capabilities Approach, are known to provide comprehensive measurements and information for targeted interventions. By addressing research gaps on the multi-dimensional nature of poverty, this study aims to improve understanding and contribute to evidence-based policies and interventions to promote inclusive societies and comprehensive poverty reduction efforts.","PeriodicalId":117010,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Academic Research in Economics and Management Sciences","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134165470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
