Abstract

This article focuses on the Empirical Research about the effects of public investment to economic growth,using econometric tools of cointegration analysis,VECM,impulse response and residual decomposition.Our results indicate: public investment,including public material investment,public labor investment and public RD investment,has positive long-term equilibrium relation with GDP;impulse response of GDP to the public investment shock is positive,while to the RD investment is negative;RD investment does not Granger cause GDP.So the authors suggest pay more attention to adding investment on technology,education and healthcare,while adjusting structure of public investment.
