英文文献：Geography and economic growth in Vietnam-越南的地理和经济增长

英文文献摘要：
Using panel data from Vietnam, this paper estimates the determinants of consumption growth for the period 2002-04, using a microgrowth model. While controlling for individual heterogeneity, particular attention is devoted to the question of whether geography, broadly defined to include natural and man-made characteristics at the level of the commune, can be responsible for lower growth rates and, consequently, poverty persistence. We find very limited support for this hypothesis. Neither public nor private investment at commune levels seem to have, per se, a significant effect on growth. However, local poverty rate does have an important, nonlinear, relation with growth rate of consumption at individual level, suggesting the importance of local externalities in this process. The policy implications of this finding are discussed.
本文利用越南的面板数据，利用微增长模型估计了2002-04年消费增长的决定因素。在控制个人异质性的同时，特别注意的问题是，广泛定义为包括社区一级的自然和人为特征的地理是否会导致较低的增长率，从而导致持续贫穷。我们对这一假设的支持非常有限。社区一级的公共或私人投资本身似乎对增长都没有重大影响。然而，地方贫困率与个人层面的消费增长率之间确实存在着重要的非线性关系，这表明了地方外部性在这一过程中的重要性。本文讨论了这一发现的政策含义。
