摘　　要：在财政分权、政绩竞赛等多种因素的交织影响下,市场分割成为中国经济发展的一大顽疾,阻碍了区域间资源和商品的自由流动与竞争,本文通过构建地方政府间的无限重复博弈模型,探讨了区域经济差距和地方政府的短期目标导向对市场分割的影响机理,并以2003—2017年间中国任意两省市的配对组合为样本进行了实证检验。研究发现,在竞争格局下,地方政府存在着一定的“经济合作空间”,具有共同建设并维护全国统一市场的动力。然而,市场分割阻碍了这种经济合作,其中区域经济差距超出合理区间是地方政府放弃合作策略、形成市场分割的根源之一,而地方政府的短期目标导向则进一步加剧了这一问题。首先,两地间的市场规模差距和技术效率差距越大,地方政府越可能放弃合作策略而形成严重的市场分割;其次,地方政府的短期目标导向不仅会促进市场分割水平上升,而且还通过调节作用使地方政府的经济合作空间进一步减小,加剧了区域经济差距对市场分割的正向影响。Under the influence of various factors such as fiscal decentralization and political promotion tournament,market segmentation has become one of the serious obstacles to China’s economic development,hindering the flow and competition of resources and commodities between regions.By constructing an infinite repeating game model to describe the interaction between local governments,this paper explores the influence mechanism of regional economic gap and local government’s short-term orientation on market segmentation.And then,this paper takes the matching combination of any two provinces in China from 2003 to 2017 as the sample to make empirical test.It is found that local governments have a certain degree of“economic cooperation space”and have the motivation to jointly build and maintain the national unified market.However,the market segmentation hinders this kind of economic cooperation,in which the regional economic gap beyond the reasonable range is one of the root causes for the local government to give up the cooperation strategy and form the market segmentation,and the local government’s short-term orientation further aggravates this problem.Firstly,the larger the market size gap and technical efficiency gap between two regions,the more likely is that local governments will abandon cooperative strategies and create severe market segmentation.Secondly,the short-term orientation of local governments not only promotes the level of market segmentation itself,but also has moderating effect,which further reduces the cooperation space of local governments and intensifies the positive impact of regional economic gap on market segmentation.
