The Study of Electronic and Communication Equipment Intra-Industry Trade and Effect of Technical Progress in China

Since the economic globalization, intra-industry trade has gown rapidly all over the world , and the intra-industry proportion of china has constantly increased. As electronic and communication equipment products play an important role in technical progress, it is vital to study the relationship between electronic and communication equipment product intra-industry and technical progress effects under the circumstance of upgrading industries of our nation. First of all, the paper ensures the concepts of IIT and measurement methods of IIT, elaborating and analyzing the development condition of electronic and communication equipment product intra-industry of china from 1995-2009. Econometrics models based on Computers and telecommunications, Electronic have established to analyze the relationship of electronic and communication equipment product intra-industry and technical progress effect. Through the empirical analysis, it can be concluded that: the electronic and communication equipment product intra-industry trade has a positive impact on technical progress, and the effect of export is more significant than import. However, as the relatively low level of electronic and communication equipment intra-industry trade of our nation, the technical progress from trade is limited, therefore China should improve IIT degrees; insist on the principles of independent innovation; imitation and absorption; expanding export and domestic demand, form the technical progress mechanism that possessing our nation´s characteristics, enhance the competitiveness of products and realize the technical upgrading of industry.
