摘要

喜马拉雅山对中国和印度都具有重要的战略意义,但这一偏远地区的发展仍相对落后。本文对中国西藏和印度拉达克进行了比较分析,旨在找出与当地经济发展相关的共同因素和特殊因素。描述性分析探讨了两个地区的行政、军事、人口和经济因素。此外,我们还使用 ARDL 模型研究了财政转移支付与地区增长之间的长期关系。最后,我们采用了三种测量方法来研究喜马拉雅地区与各自国家其他地区的一体化程度。结果表明,西藏和拉达克在有限的地区自治、强大的军事存在以及农业和服务业的重要性方面表现出许多相似之处。实证调查证实了转移与增长之间的协整关系。国内游客流入量的增加和货运量的扩大进一步推动了地区一体化。

China vs India in the Himalayas: Comparing economic development in Tibet and Ladakh

The Himalayas are of great strategic importance for China and India but the remote region remains relatively underdeveloped. This paper conducts a comparative analysis of China's Tibet and India's Ladakh with the aim of identifying common and idiosyncratic factors relevant for local economic development. A descriptive analysis explores the administrative, military, demographic, and economic factors in each region. Moreover, we use an ARDL model to examine the long-run relationship between fiscal transfers and regional growth. Lastly, three measures are employed to investigate the extent of integration between the Himalayan regions and the rest of their respective countries. The results indicate that Tibet and Ladakh exhibit many similarities related to a limited degree of regional autonomy, a strong military presence, and the importance of agriculture and services. The empirical investigation confirms the cointegration between transfers and growth. Regional integration is furthered by increasing inflows of domestic tourists and expanding freight traffic.
