贸易开放是否促进了文化认同——基于中国1990～2014年数据的实证研究

Abstract:Cultural identity refers to the process of cultural recognition and acceptance among countries with narrowing of cultural differences and alleviation of cultural conflicts.Based on China's trade data from 1990 to 2014 with 40 partners and data of World Value Survey，this paper measures the index of Chinese trade openness and degree of cultural identity from foreign countries，and then estimates the impact of trade openness on cultural identity.Results show trade openness not only strengthens Chinese cultural identity from other countries in terms of trust，respect，control and obedience dimension significantly，but also promotes the overall cultural identity.Moreover，inequality of income distribution will not affect the promotion of trade openness on cultural identity.
