Abstract

China’s economy has a typical characteristic that the government has a strong control of enormous productive resources, such as the land resources. Industrial land use is greatly influenced by institutional factors that refer to the market means and government control. But little empirical researches have focused on the performances of government incentives and land market in industrial land use efficiency (ILUE). Based on the geographically and temporally weighted regression model, this study reveals the spatial and temporal role of government incentives and land market on ILUE in China from 2007 to 2015. The results show that the ILUE has spatial and temporal differences in different cities, showing a significant increasing trend from 2007 to 2015. The land transfer fund, land added tax, and official promotion incentive have a negative impact on the ILUE of most cities in 2015. There are significant temporal and spatial variations in the effect of land marketization, land price, the proportion of stock land and the proportion of unused land on ILUE between cities. Finally, this paper provides some policy implications according to the results obtained.
