Abstract:
In order to study the influence of digital economy on high-quality exports and its mechanism, based on the core characteristic attribute of “de-boundary” of digital economy, this study discusses the theoretical logic of digital economy affecting high-quality exports from two paths: local market integration and innovation paradigm reshaping. By constructing the panel data set of 281 prefecture-level cities and above from 2010 to 2020, and adopting thedouble machine learning model, this paper empirically tests the action path and effect of digital economy on high-quality exports. The research believes that the development of digital economy can significantly promote high-quality exports, and this promotion is mainly realized through the integration of local markets and the reshaping of innovation paradigms. The positive impact of digital economy on high-quality exports is asymmetric among cities. Specifically, for inland areas with no obvious geographical advantages and areas with weak policy support, the driving effect of digital economy on the improvement of export quality is more obvious, which can greatly release incremental dividends. The research shows that it is necessary to accelerate the improvement of the original innovation ability of digital technology and actively promote the circulation and sharing of information and data resources to cultivate new advantages of China’s export trade. And it is also essential to continue to promote the efficient smoothness and scale expansion of the domestic market, optimize the domestic regional layout, and adopt differentiated policies to guide the high-quality development of trade for different regions.
