This paper measures inter-provincial market fragmentation by adopting an adjusted priced-based approach from the Law of One Price using a three-dimensional panel of annual price on eight goods across 31 provinces in Mainland China during 1999–2015. By using the system Generalized Moment Estimation (GMM) approach, we analyze the non-linear effect of inter-provincial market fragmentation on regional economic development and its differences in various regions and periods. By constructing a Cross-Terms Model, we analyze the influence of various motivations of provincial governments on the non-linear relationship between inter-provincial market fragmentation and regional economic development. The results show that (1) Chinese domestic market fragmentation appears to have caused a fluctuating decline during 1999–2015. (2) The inter-provincial market fragmentation imposes an inverted U-shaped influence on regional economic development. It is necessary to maintain moderate market fragmentation for the promotion of regional economic development. (3) It is beneficial to maintain a lower degree of market fragmentation as time goes on. It is necessary to maintain a lower degree of market fragmentation in Eastern and Central China compared with Western China. (4) Compared with Social Stability and Official Positions Promotion, the motivation of Fiscal Revenue Enhancement requires the maintenance of a lower degree of inter-provincial market fragmentation for regional economic development.

The rapid development of a new generation of information technology has caused major changes in teaching and learning methods, promoted the innovation and transformation of education informatization, and promoted the realization of education modernization. Education informatization has gradually become one of the core factors that determine the quality of education. There is a close connection with the regional economy. The western region of my country (mainly including the mountainous areas in the southwest and the arid areas in the northwest) shows regional characteristics such as fragile ecological environment, lagging economic development, and large gaps in infrastructure and public services. Informatization of education is urgently needed to promote regional economic development. By comparing the gross product and educational expenditure of Zhejiang province and Gansu Province, this paper concludes the interdependence and mutual promotion between the development of educational informationization and regional economic development. On this basis, this paper analyzes the necessity of the informationization of education and the coordinated development of regional economy in the ecologically fragile areas of western China. Finally, from five aspects, it puts forward an effective way to promote the development of education informatization and regional economy, aiming at realizing the coordinated development of education informatization and regional economy. Finally improve the social productivity of western region and our country's comprehensive national strength.
