摘要
The tourism industry has become a new growth engine that closely coordinates with the financial industry and contributes to the sustainable development of local economies. This study establishes a comprehensive index system and evaluates the coupling coordination based on an integrated approach, and the dynamic relationship between tourism and finance through applying coupling coordination degree modeling, the Granger causality test, and an impulse response function based on the regional coordination theory and system theory. Using data from 2000 to 2016 of three tourism-based cities in China, the findings reveal heterogeneous results among the cities. Specifically, the following: (1) The coupling coordination degree between finance and tourism in Zhangjiajie increased with strong fluctuations. A one-way causality relationship existed between two subsystems, and finance continuously contributed to the growth of tourism with serious lags; (2) The coupling coordination degree between finance and tourism in Huang Shan presented a ladder-type and continuous rise. A two-way causality relationship existed between the two subsystems mentioned above, and finance influenced the growth of tourism with continuously positive or negative effects, while tourism continuously contributed to the development of finance. (3) The coupling coordination degree between finance and tourism in Sanya grew with a frequent, tiny, and fluctuating trend. A two-way causality relationship existed between the two subsystems mentioned above, and finance influenced the growth of tourism with continuously positive or negative effects, while tourism influenced the development of finance with temporary positive or negative effects.
