Abstract

Based on Deap-Malmquist index during 1985-2008, the empirical analysis shows that: total factor productivity growth improve by period in China. Our economic growth mode transfer steady, but not balanced. Among them, the east and northeast China as a whole technology progress faster, efficiency improve obviously, economic growth mode transformation walk in the front in the whole country. The western region is basically synchronous with the national, efficiency improved clearly, and technological progress is slow; the central region technology stagnation, inefficiency, the change of the economic growth mode is seriously lagging behind. Technical progress is first force to promote the economic restructuring, pure technical efficiency contribution to the second, and the influence of international economy environment is larger too. So, it is necessary to increase investment in science and technology innovation, to vigorously develop modern service industry, to expand domestic demand, coordinating regional development, maintain a steady improvement in productivity, and promote economic growth mode transformation.
