摘要

我们研究了贸易自由化对创业的影响。通过将中国加入世界贸易组织作为一个外生冲击，进行差分估计，我们发现贸易自由化对创业有相当大的积极影响。我们的研究结果对不同规格和内生性问题都是稳健的。我们进一步讨论了结果的合理驱动机制：贸易诱导竞争和投入品市场渠道。在经济发展水平较低、信任度较高的地区，以及对外部资金依赖程度较低的行业，中国加入世贸组织可能会带来更多的创业机会。

Trade liberalization and entrepreneurship: Evidence from China’s WTO accession

We investigate the effect of trade liberalization on entrepreneurship. By using China’s World Trade Organization accession as an exogenous shock to conduct a difference-in-differences estimation, we find that trade liberalization has a sizeable positive effect on entrepreneurship. Our findings are robust to different specifications and endogeneity problems. We further discuss the plausible mechanisms driving our results: the trade induced competition, and input market channel. China’s WTO accession may lead to more entrepreneurship in areas with low levels of economic development, a high level of trust, and industries with a low level of external finance dependence.
