摘　　要：跨省流域生态补偿是财政政策在流域生态文明建设中发挥积极作用的创新性探索,也是中央政府与沿江地方政府共同参与的流域共治实践。本文基于2008—2020年中国跨省流域生态补偿试点地区的面板数据,运用渐进双重差分法研究跨省流域生态补偿对上游地区经济增长的影响及作用机制。实证结果表明,生态补偿显著地促进了上游地区经济发展。机制检验得出,生态补偿主要通过加强上游地方政府环境规制强度、提高财政分权程度并提升民生性财政支出占比促进地区经济增长,而调整地区产业结构对经济增长的促进作用不明显。异质性分析发现,跨省流域生态补偿对上游地区经济增长的促进作用在首轮签约时最为突出,并且对中西部受偿地区的促进作用更强。Cross-provincial ecological compensation for river basins is an innovative exploration in which fiscal policies play a positive role in the construction of ecological civilization in river basins.It is also a joint practice of river basin governance involving the central government and local governments along the river.This article is based on panel data from pilot areas of cross-provincial watershed ecological com-pensation in China from 2008 to 2020,and uses the difference-in-differences with multiple time periods to study the impact and mechanism of cross-provincial watershed ecological compensation on economic growth in upstream regions.The empirical results indicate that ecological compensation significantly pro-motes the economic development of upstream regions.The mechanism test shows that ecological compensa-tion mainly promotes regional economic growth by strengthening the environmental regulation intensity of upstream local governments,increasing the degree of fiscal decentralization and the proportion of people's livelihood fiscal expenditure.However,the promotion effect of adjusting regional industri-al structure on economic growth is not significant.Heterogeneity analysis found that the promotion effect of cross-provincial watershed ecological compensation on economic growth in upstream regions was most prom-inent in the first round of signing contracts;it has a stronger promoting effect on the compensated areas in the central and western regions.
