摘　　要：我国多个地区正在探索"省直管县"体制改革,目前的最大顾虑是改革是否会损害地级市的利益?本文利用1999—2008年我国地级市数据,通过系统GMM估计对此进行了实证研究。结果发现:"强县扩权"提高了城市财政收入,抑制了城市财政支出增长;财政"省直管县"的作用则恰好相反。"强县扩权"促进了城市经济增长,但不利于城市第三产业的发展;财政"省直管县"虽然降低了城市经济增长速度,却提高了第三产业比重。两项改革措施都抑制了城市规模的扩大,但有利于改善城市的环境质量。因此,我们不能笼统地断定"省直管县"改革一定会有损地级市的利益、阻碍城市化的进程,应深入地研究各项改革措施的利弊得失,做到综合运用、扬长避短。The reform of ＇ County Directly Administrated by Province＇ has been put into practice in some regions of China for several years. Does the reform damage the city＇ s interests？ This paper uses the county data from 1999 to 2008 in China to do some empirical analyses by system GMM method. This paper finds that ＂Expansion County＇ s Authority＂ can increase the city＇s fiscal revenue, but decrease the fiscal expenditure. However, the effect of ＂County Directly Administrated by Province＂ in fiscal system is reversed. ＂Expansion County＇s Authority＂ can improve the city＇s economic growth rate, but restrain the development of tertiary industry. Also, the effect of ＂County Directly Administrated by Province＂ in fiscal system is reversed. Both of the reform methods can control the expanding of city＇ s population and improve the city＇ s environment quality. So we can not conclude the reform could damage the city＇ s interests and block the urbanization of China. It is necessary to study every reform methods＇ gain and loss to make best use of the advantages and bypass the disadvantages.
