In his representative,Native Son,Richard Wright employed typical descriptions of Gothic in plots,setting,and portrayal of characters to expose that the seeds of racism had yielded the fruit of dehumanization of black Americans and to alarm the bell that racism is a double-sword which hurts not only blacks but also whites.
为促进绿色低碳转型,中国正稳步推进低碳城市试点工作,并致力于精确衡量这些试点在提升绿色全要素生产率方面的成效。为此,研究聚焦于低碳城市,依托2007年至2021年间中国281座城市的面板数据,运用多阶段双重差分模型,对低碳城市试点政策如何影响金融发展水平进行了实证分析。结果显示,与非试点城市相比,低碳试点政策显著抑制了金融发展水平的提升,经过一系列稳健性检验后,上述结论依然成立。机制分析表明,低碳城市试点能够通过政府干预和经济集聚水平抑制金融发展水平。To promote a green and low-carbon transition, China is steadily promoting low-carbon city pilots and is committed to accurately measuring the effectiveness of these pilots in enhancing green total factor productivity. To this end, the study focuses on low-carbon cities and empirically analyzes how pilot policies for low-carbon cities affect the level of financial development, relying on panel data for 281 Chinese cities between 2007 and 2021 and using a multi-stage double difference model. The results show that compared with non-pilot cities, low-carbon pilot policies significantly inhibit the improvement of financial development level, and the above conclusion still holds after a series of robustness tests. The mechanism analysis suggests that low-carbon city pilots can inhibit the level of financial development through government intervention and the level of economic agglomeration.
