Can high-speed rail promote regional technological innovation? An explanation based on city network centrality
The relationship between high-speed railway and technological innovation has attracted wide interest of scholars, but there are few studies pay attention to the role of urban status in the impact of high-speed rail on innovation from the perspective of urban development. In this paper, we construct the theoretical framework of high-speed railway, city network centrality and regional technology innovation, and explore the influence mechanism of high-speed railway on regional technological innovation. Referring to the concept of global urban interlocking network model in Taylor and Derudder (2015), we measure the city network centrality of China's prefecture-level administrative regions based on advanced producer services (APS), and empirically test the mediating effect of city network centrality in high-speed rail's influence on regional technological innovation using prefecture-level data in China from 2007 to 2016. The results suggest that the city network centrality is a mechanism by which high-speed railway affects regional technological innovation. The construction of high-speed railway promotes regional technological innovation by improving the city network centrality. In addition, the promotion of high-speed railway on technological innovation capability varies with urban features, where the small-scale and relatively backward cities gain more benefits from the construction of high-speed railway.
期刊介绍:
Research in Transportation Business & Management (RTBM) will publish research on international aspects of transport management such as business strategy, communication, sustainability, finance, human resource management, law, logistics, marketing, franchising, privatisation and commercialisation. Research in Transportation Business & Management welcomes proposals for themed volumes from scholars in management, in relation to all modes of transport. Issues should be cross-disciplinary for one mode or single-disciplinary for all modes. We are keen to receive proposals that combine and integrate theories and concepts that are taken from or can be traced to origins in different disciplines or lessons learned from different modes and approaches to the topic. By facilitating the development of interdisciplinary or intermodal concepts, theories and ideas, and by synthesizing these for the journal''s audience, we seek to contribute to both scholarly advancement of knowledge and the state of managerial practice. Potential volume themes include: -Sustainability and Transportation Management- Transport Management and the Reduction of Transport''s Carbon Footprint- Marketing Transport/Branding Transportation- Benchmarking, Performance Measurement and Best Practices in Transport Operations- Franchising, Concessions and Alternate Governance Mechanisms for Transport Organisations- Logistics and the Integration of Transportation into Freight Supply Chains- Risk Management (or Asset Management or Transportation Finance or ...): Lessons from Multiple Modes- Engaging the Stakeholder in Transportation Governance- Reliability in the Freight Sector
