Abstract

Based on the cross-border e-commerce online retail export data of cities in Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2020, this paper uses global and local autocorrelation methods to conduct a correlation test. The spatial distribution characteristics of the growth of cross-border e-commerce online retail exports in Zhejiang Province were discussed. On this basis, the convergence characteristics of cross-border e-commerce online retail export growth in Zhejiang Province were studied, the spatial condition convergence econometric model was constructed, and the convergence characteristics and the mechanism affecting the growth convergence were further discussed. The results show that the growth of cross-border e-commerce online retail exports in Zhejiang Province has obvious convergence characteristics, and the coefficient of variation decreases year by year. The convergence rate in northeast Zhejiang is faster than that of the whole province; and the convergence rate of the whole province is faster than that in southwest Zhejiang. The spatial clustering shows a significant "high to low" overlapping feature, with high-value area usually surrounded by low-value area. There are also spatial differences in the mechanism of the relevant control variables affecting the convergence of cross-border e-commerce export and retail growth in the province, northeast and southwest Zhejiang.
