双边贸易壁垒除了地理距离之外还应包括跨国间文化异质性程度带来的贸易成本。本文选择民族间距其最近的共同祖先所过去时间一遗传距离作为文化异质性的度量指标并阐述其有效性,并采用民族加权法计算了我国与110个国家的遗传距离,在贸易引力模型的基础上对1996-2010年的面板数据进行实证分析,结果表明:在控制地理距离等变量后,遗传距离对双边贸易流量起着显著的阻碍作用,随着时间的推移呈递增趋势,遗传距离与地理距离对双边贸易的影响存在替代效应;进一步分析发现,遗传距离对我国与24个发达国家的双边贸易流量的负向效应更显著。本文引入公元1500年主要民族间遗传距离作为工具变量,面板IV估计较好地克服了解释变量的内生性问题,实证结果具有稳健性。
雙邊貿易壁壘除瞭地理距離之外還應包括跨國間文化異質性程度帶來的貿易成本。本文選擇民族間距其最近的共同祖先所過去時間一遺傳距離作為文化異質性的度量指標併闡述其有效性,併採用民族加權法計算瞭我國與110箇國傢的遺傳距離,在貿易引力模型的基礎上對1996-2010年的麵闆數據進行實證分析,結果錶明:在控製地理距離等變量後,遺傳距離對雙邊貿易流量起著顯著的阻礙作用,隨著時間的推移呈遞增趨勢,遺傳距離與地理距離對雙邊貿易的影響存在替代效應;進一步分析髮現,遺傳距離對我國與24箇髮達國傢的雙邊貿易流量的負嚮效應更顯著。本文引入公元1500年主要民族間遺傳距離作為工具變量,麵闆IV估計較好地剋服瞭解釋變量的內生性問題,實證結果具有穩健性。

Besides geographical factors, trade cost caused by cultural heteroge- neity is also one of the barriers to bilateral trade. Choosing genetic distance as a proxy variable of cross-national cultural heterogeneity, this paper uses weighing method to construct the genetic distance between China and other 110 countries. The genetic distance is supposed to reflect the degree of variation between two populations and the effectiveness of such a cultural variation. Based on Gravity model, this paper then examines the relationship between genetic distance and in- ternational trade using panel data from 1996 to 2010. The findings prove that once the geographical variable is determined, the genetic distance becomes a sig- nificantly negative factor that contains the size of bilateral trade flow, during which the containing effect increases as time passes by. It is also found that there is a substitution effect between the genetic distance and the geographic dis- tance on bilateral trade. What' s more, through further inspection it is found that the genetic distances between China and 24 OECD countries have a greater im- pediment effect on these bilateral trade flows. As this study uses genetic distance of the year 1500 as an instrumental variable for current genetic distance, and pan- el IV is considered to have addressed the endogeneity problem, the findings from this empirical analysis claim conservatism.
