Abstract

As information technologies support more freedom of industrial location. Local governments, in order to increase their own output, may use telecommunications investment as a competitive tool for attracting factors of production. This effect, in a production-function framework, would manifest itself as a negative output spillover effect to other provinces from telecommunications investment. This paper tests for spatial spillover effects of province-level telecommunications services on province output by using spatial panel data for 30 provinces in China from 1993 through 2004. Findings indicate that a province benefits from its own telecommunications development, but the level of telecommunications services (it reflects development) in its “network neighbors” has a negative impact on its output.
