How does the development of fintech affect financial efficiency? Evidence from China
The rapid development of fintech is transforming the global financial system. However, how does fintech impact financial efficiency? Based on the technology spillover theory, this study analysed the theoretical mechanism of fintech’s impact on financial efficiency and used the text mining method to construct a fintech level index for each province in China. Using interprovincial panel data from 2008 to 2018, the study empirically tested the relat…
Political Conflict and Development Dynamics
As a multi-faceted socio-political movement in twentieth-century China, the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976) witnessed conflict and social upheaval. This paper investigates its economic legacies, exploiting geographic variation in revolutionary intensity, measured by the number of resulting deaths. Using a newly assembled county-level panel dataset over five decades, we find worse-affected areas performed slightly better at baseline, but were slow…

Despite achieving high take-up of suc…
