“…There are obvious externalities associated with the digital economy, unlike the agricultural and industrial economies, which are characterized by high mobility and strong penetration with spatial spillover characteristics [39]. Data and information can be disseminated across space and time at a low cost, breaking the limitation of spatial distance between regions, weakening the law of decay of the technology spillover effect, and enhancing the sharing and universality of knowledge and technology.…”

Common prosperity is the essential requirement of socialism and an important feature of Chinese-style modernization. Data from 284 cities in China from 2011 to 2020 were collected to construct an evaluation system of the digital economy and common prosperity and establish relevant econometric models to explore their impact, spatial spillover, and mechanism. It is found that: (1) the digital economy has an obvious role in promoting common prosperity, this promotion role is dynamic and nonlinear, and the digital economy’s promotion is more obvious in low-level digital economy regions; (2) the digital economy has obvious externalities, and there is a spatial spillover effect in the process of promoting common prosperity; (3) resource allocation efficiency plays a mediating role in the process of promoting common prosperity development in the digital economy. Finally, countermeasures and suggestions are proposed in four aspects: strengthening the development of the digital economy, increasing investment in digital infrastructure, enhancing the digital governance capacity of the government, and building a digital economy demonstration zone. The research results deepen the understanding of the digital economy and common prosperity and provide some insights for the ultimate realization of common prosperity.

“…They are development, sharing, and sustainability, respectively. ① Development means the increase of the total wealth of society and the rise in the income level of the people, which is the basis for the realization of common prosperity 8 . ② Sharing indicates that the material wealth created should benefit everyone with equal employment opportunities, health care, education, and the ecological environment 9 .…”

The characteristics of common prosperity include harmonious relationships between humans and the environment, as well as sustainable economic and social growth. The process of achieving common prosperity will necessarily have an impact on carbon emissions. In this article, panel statistics collected from 30 Chinese provinces and cities between the years 2006 and 2020 are utilized to assess the level of common prosperity and the intensity of carbon emissions in China. Then the SDM model is applied to explore the effects of the common prosperity level on the intensity of carbon emissions. The findings reveal that: (i) The common prosperity level in China has shown an increasing tendency. Between 2006 and 2020, the mean level of common prosperity increased from 0.254 to 0.486. From the regional perspective, eastern China has seen greater levels of common prosperity than central China, while central China has experienced greater levels of common prosperity than western China; regional disparities in the degree of common prosperity are substantial among Chinese provinces from 2006 to 2020; the common prosperity level is relatively high in economically developed provinces and relatively low in economically backward provinces. (ii) China's carbon emission intensity shows a continuous downward tendency. The annual average intensity of China's carbon emissions decreased from 4.458 in 2006 to 2.234 in 2020. From the regional perspective, the three main regions' carbon emission intensity likewise exhibits a decline in tendency between 2006 and 2020; still, western China continues to have the greatest carbon emission intensity, following central China, while eastern China has the smallest; however, certain provinces, notably Inner Mongolia and Shanxi, continue to have high carbon emission intensity. (iii) China's common prosperity level and carbon emission intensity both exhibit positive spatial autocorrelation at a 1% significant level under the adjacency matrix. The spatial agglomeration effect is significant, and adjacent provinces can affect each other. (iv) The SDM (Spatial Durbin Model) model test with fixed effects finds that the increase in the level of common prosperity suppresses the intensity of carbon emissions in the local area and neighboring regions. (v) The mediating effects model indicates that the process of common prosperity suppresses carbon emission intensity through high-quality economic development, narrowing the income disparity, and the development of a sharing economy.

“…Wan and Chen defined common prosperity and measured common prosperity by using per capita gross national income and the Gini coefficient of per capita disposable income [12]. Xie et al not only selected indicators to measure common prosperity, but also analyzed the influencing factors of common prosperity and found that there are many factors affecting common prosperity, among which per capita GDP had the greatest impact on common prosperity [13]. In addition to the assessment of common prosperity and analysis of influencing factors, some scholars put forward suggestions to achieve common prosperity [14,15].…”

Green development is the background of common prosperity and is important for the sustainable development of China. The purpose of this paper is to quantitatively evaluate China’s common prosperity policies to understand the advantages and disadvantages of common prosperity policies. In this paper, 15 representative common prosperity policies are research subjects, and this study uses the PMC (Policy Modeling Consistency) index method to assess the quality of common prosperity policies in China. This study, firstly, finds that the average value of the 15 common prosperity policies is 6.47, evaluated as a good grade. Secondly, 80% of policies are evaluated as a good or excellent grade, which means that the quality of the policy making of 80% of policies is at least good. Except for policy prescription, policy subject and policy incentive, the values of other first-level indicators are all greater than six, indicating that the Chinese government’s formulation level of common prosperity policies is relatively high. Thirdly, among fifteen common prosperity policies, one policy is evaluated as a perfect grade (quality of policy making is very good), four policies are evaluated as excellent (quality of policy making is better than required), eight policies are evaluated as good (quality of policy making is good) and two policies are evaluated as bad (quality of policy making is bad). Fourthly, by drawing figures composed of PMC curves, this paper analyzes common prosperity policies of different grades. Finally, some suggestions are proposed in this study to improve China’s common prosperity policies.
