Abstract

Under the background of market integration,the structural change of regional specialization has always been an important research field of regional economy.It is an important perspective to explain the regional gap and study the rationalization of industrial structure.Based on the panel data of 13 cities in Beijing Tianjin Hebei region from 2009 to 2018,this paper uses location entropy as an index to measure the degree of regional specialization, and makes an empirical study on the correlation between the degree of specialization of Beijing Tianjin Hebei region and urban economic growth.The test results show that the specialization of manufacturing industry and basic service industry have a negative impact on the economy,The specialization of high-end service industry has a positive impact on economic growth,and the excess supply of basic service industry is found.It is concluded that although the degree of specialization in Beijing Tianjin Hebei region has improved,the structure is unreasonable,which has become a major challenge for the coordinated development of Beijing Tianjin Hebei region.
