摘要

本文量化了 2005 年至 2013 年在印度建立的经济特区对当地经济的影响。我们使用了一个新颖的数据集，该数据集将印度企业总体的人口普查信息与经济特区的地理参照数据相结合，发现经济特区的建立增加了当地制造业和服务业的就业，并在距离经济特区区域 10 公里的范围内产生了正溢出效应。分析表明，在制造业和服务业就业增加的同时，农业劳动力，尤其是妇女的农业劳动力减少，这表明该政策促进了结构变化。在进一步分析中，我们发现不同类型的经济特区都会对当地就业产生重大影响：私营和公营经济特区，以及不同行业的经济特区。

Place-based policies, structural change and female labor: Evidence from India’s Special Economic Zones

This paper quantifies the local economic impact of special economic zones (SEZs) established in India between 2005 and 2013. Using a novel dataset that combines census information on the universe of Indian firms with geo-referenced data on SEZs, we find that the establishment of SEZs increased local manufacturing and service employment, with positive spillovers up to 10 km from the SEZ area. The analysis shows that the gains in manufacturing and service employment were accompanied by a decline in agricultural labor, especially for women, suggesting that the policy contributed to structural change. In further analysis, we document that significant local employment effects occur across different types of SEZs: privately and publicly run zones, and SEZs with different industry designations.
