Influence of regional leading enterprises on government environmental regulation
摘要
Abstract
Will the government regulation be influenced by the scale of pillar firms when the interests of firms and government conflict? Literature relating this important public management topic is scarce.From the point of environmental regulation,based on data of China's provincial level from 1999-2013,and micro data from China's Industrial database,this paper investigates whether and how the size of leading firms will influence regional environmental regulatory stringency.We find evidence that:① the larger the scale of regional firms is,the more stringent the environmental regulation will be;② there are two mechanisms firm size affect regulatory enforcement,the first path is the more important the 2-digit industry of the pillar enterprise is,the more stringent the environmental regulation will be;the second path is the more important the pillar firm in the 2-digit industry,the more attention it will attract from the government;③ the effect of firm scale on regulatory enforcement depends on government capacity.While the government capacity is insufficient,to improve regulatory efficiency,the government will'invigorate large enterprises while relaxing control over small ones',focus on the regulation on the large firms strategically;with the increasing of firm capacity,the coefficient between firm size and environmental regulation decrease and statistical significance diminish too;when the capacity of the government is sufficient,the scale of regional firms will be negatively correlated with regional environmental stringency.Our work suggests that when there is interest game between government and firm,the interest of government is overwhelming.Only when the interest of the government is fulfilled,will the scale effect of firm could improve finn interest.Our conclusions relieve the worrisome of political-commercial collusion on the one hand,but remind the precaution of the distortion by the "visible hand" of the government on the other hand.关键词
