摘要

行政改革是否促进了有利的营商环境?这种改革的机制是什么?本研究采用混合方法探讨中国行政改革与商业环境之间的关系。本文将行政负担理论扩展到政企互动中，提出了行政改革与商业环境之间的桥梁框架。本定量分析基于企业层面的调查数据和案例数据，证实行政改革能够显著提升营商环境，行政负担是这一过程中的中介变量。定性比较分析认为，有三种不同的配置可以促进良好的商业环境:协作治理、政府驱动和企业驱动配置。在理论上，本文对行政负担理论进行了拓展，将企业作为新的行为主体纳入到行政负担理论中。我们也为从业者提供改革建议。

Does Administrative Reform Improve the Business Environment in China? A Mixed-Method Analysis Based on Administrative Burden Theory

Does administrative reform boost the favorable business environment? What is the mechanism underlying such reform? This study explores the relationship between administrative reform and the business environment in China via a mixed-method approach. This paper extends administrative burden theory to government-company interactions and then proposes a framework that bridges administrative reform and the business environment. Based on firm-level survey data and case data, this quantitative analysis confirms that administrative reform can significantly boost the favorable business environment and that administrative burden is a mediating variable during this process. The qualitative comparative analysis contends that there are three different configurations that can boost the favorable business environment: collaborative governance, government-driven, and enterprise-driven configurations. Theoretically, this paper extends the administrative burden theory, which brings companies into this theory as new actors. We also provide reform advice for practitioners.

期刊介绍： TRAS represents a collective effort initiated by an international group aimed at boosting the research in the field of public administration in a country where during the communist regime there was no tradition in this sense. TRAS represents a unique source of specialized analysis of the ex-communist space, of the transition processes to democracy, of the reform of public administration, and of comparative analysis of administrative systems. The general topic covered by the articles in the Review is administrative sciences. As a result of an interdisciplinary, modern approach, the articles cover the following specific themes: Public management, public policy, administrative law, public policy analysis, regional development, community development, public finances, urban planning, program evaluation in public administration, ethics, comparative administrative systems, etc. TRAS encourages the authors to submit articles that are based on empirical research. From the standpoint of the topic covered, TRAS is lined up with the trends followed by other international journals in the field of public administration. All articles submitted to the Transylvanian Review of Administrative Sciences have to present a clear connection to the field of administrative sciences and the research (both theoretical and empirical) should be conducted from this perspective. Interdisciplinary topics related to organizational theory, sustainable development and CSR, international relations, etc. can be considered for publication, however the research needs to address relevant issues from the perspective of the public sector. Articles which use highly specialized econometrics models as well as studies addressing macro-economic topics will not be considered for evaluation. The decision on whether a certain topic falls within the interest of TRAS belongs to the editors and it is not connected with the overall quality of the work submitted.
