Abstract
The "One Belt and one Road" development strategy is put forward for the development of the western region of China. This paper uses the spatial economic model to do some empirical research on the economic convergence trends in western regions of China. Our results shows that the regional economic growth has a strong space correlation; After considering the spatial factors, the 67 cities have the convergence trend of economic development; beta convergence is more significant when we add the government impact factor, suggesting that the government plays an important role in the economic development convergence trend, but the employment factor’s effect on the convergence trend in the development of economy is still in doubt.
