Abstract: The development of regional economy depends on the regional central cities and the accumulation of human capital. Therefore,the construction of the central city becomes the growth pole of regional development. It plays a significant role in regional economic and social development,and human capital accumulation is the key to realize its functions. How does central city enable the human capital accumulation? In this paper,we establish spatial econometric models to explore the effect of the central city on human capital accumulation,from the aspects of economy,industry,education,employment and medical service. It is found that the industrial development,public expenditure,education and medical care have significant impacts on regional human capital accumulation. The impacts of central cities on regional human capital accumulation shows different mechanisms,some are accumulation, while others are spillover. Therefore, development strategies of central cities should be formulated to take into account both their own economic development and the interaction among cities,ultimately achieving common development.

摘要： 区域经济的发展很多时候会依赖于区域的中心城市带动和人力资本聚集。 因此,打造中心城市成为区域发展的增长极对促进区域经济社会发展起着至关重要的作用,而实现中心城市的这些作用,人力资本聚集是关键因素。 中心城市如何实现区域人力资本的聚集呢? 文章通过建立空间计量模型,从经济、产业、教育、就业、医疗等方面探讨中心城市对区域人力资本聚集效应和路径,发现中心城市的产业发展、公共支出、教育医疗等水平均对人力资本聚集有着显著影响。 不同的中心城市在区域人力资本聚集中的作用是不同的,有的是积聚作用为主,有的是溢出作用为主。 因此,中心城市在制定自身发展战略时既要从自身经济发展角度考虑又要兼顾城市间的互动关系,最终实现共同发展。
