Industrial and Environmental Governance Efficiency in China's Urban Areas

摘要

In this chapter, the overall industrial process consists of two sub-stages-industrial production and pollution treatment. By using the network DEA model, considering undesirable outputs, and the industrial data of 2000-2014 from the TFUA, the overall industrial efficiency, industrial production efficiency and pollution governance efficiency are estimated. The evolution trends and spatial differences among urban agglomerations are also analyzed. Industrial inefficiency is decomposed and calculated using inefficiencies, desirable output inefficiencies and undesirable output inefficiencies. The primary difference of pollution governance efficiency among urban agglomerations is illustrated.
