The City

When cities develop rapidly, there are negative effects such as population expansion, traffic congestion, resource shortages, and pollution. It has become essential to explore new types of urban development patterns, and thus, the concept of the “smart city” has emerged. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the links between smart city policies and urban green total factor productivity (GTFP) in the context of China. Based on panel data of 200 cities in China from 2007–2016 and treating smart city policy as a quasi-natural experiment, the paper uses a difference-in-differences propensity score matching (PSM-DID) approach to prevent selection bias. The results show: (a) Smart city policies can significantly increase urban GTFP by 16% to 18%; (b) the larger the city, the stronger and more significant this promotion.

Capital Intensive

People efficiently aware that exploitation of development technology gives significant economy advantage. This such of awareness supports the development of competition in technology innovation and the competition of exploitation technology to reach bigger economy advantage. The economical impact of the exploitation of technology constitutes occurring of management and organization transition in various companies both of a capital intensive and labour intensive. The writer also analyses an opinion of neoclassic economist about advancement of technology. The empirical analysis points out that national production (Y) is not only caused by capital development (K) and the growth of employee (L), but also caused by the other factor, which at the beginning are considered as residual factor. It is called Total Factor Productivity (TFP).
