摘要

在全球化背景下,数字技术正成为帮助发展中经济体追赶发达经济体的合适解决方案之一。数字技术的进步促进了发展中经济体的经济增长,因为它降低了经济活动中的交易成本,提高了工人的技能和知识。同时,治理是经济增长的首要原因。因此,本研究提出了一个研究问题,即治理是否对发展中国家的数字化与经济增长关系有显著贡献。为了回答这个问题,该研究使用了不同的GMM Arellano-Bond估计器,对2006年至2019年35个发展中国家的数字化、治理及其相互作用对经济增长的影响进行了实证研究。然后,应用FE-IV估计量来检验估计的稳健性。结果表明,数字化与治理对经济增长有促进作用,而两者的相互作用则会阻碍经济增长。此外,贸易开放也促进了经济增长。这些发现提出了一些重要的政策启示,即发展中国家的政府应该建立适当的条件来促进数字技术,以便公民可以和平地表达他们对政府政策和法规的看法,这有助于国家的经济发展。

The Digitalization – Economic Growth Relationship in Developing Countries and the Role of Governance
Digital technology is emerging as one of the suitable solutions to help developing economies catch up with advanced economies in the context of globalization. Progress in digital technology promotes economic growth in developing economies because it reduces transaction costs in economic activities and improves workers’ skills and knowledge. Meanwhile, governance is the primary cause of economic growth. Therefore, this study raises a research question of whether governance significantly contributes to the digitalization – economic growth relationship in developing countries or not. For the answer, the study uses the difference GMM Arellano-Bond estimators to empirically examine the effects of digitalization, governance, and their interaction on economic growth for a group of 35 developing countries from 2006 to 2019. Then, the study applies the FE-IV estimator to check the robustness of estimates. The results indicate that digitalization and governance boost economic growth while their interaction hinders it. Furthermore, trade openness also increases economic growth. These findings suggest some crucial policy implications that governments in developing countries should establish appropriate conditions to promote digital technology so that citizens can peacefully express their views on government policies and regulations, which contributes to the economic development of the country.
