Boosting the Development of New Quality Productive Forces through the Digital Economy: Theoretical Interpretation and Mechanism Analysis

摘要: 新质生产力以创新为主导，依托新技术、新要素实现生产力质态跃迁，数字经济作为重要驱动引擎，为新质生产力培育提供要素底座、技术工具与产业载体。文章立足产业经济学、创新经济学视角，从要素重构、技术创新、产业迭代、制度环境四个维度解析数字经济助推新质生产力的内在逻辑，识别数据要素、算力算法、数实融合、平台生态等核心变量，拆解“底层要素赋能–中层技术产业传导–顶层生产力跃升”的递进式作用机制，同时剖析数字经济赋能过程中存在的数字鸿沟、转型成本、要素协同不足等现实约束，并据此提出优化路径，为各地依托数字经济培育新质生产力提供理论参考。

Abstract: Led by innovation, new quality productive forces achieve qualitative leaps in productive capacity by virtue of new technologies and new factors. As a critical driving engine, the digital economy furnishes factor foundations, technological tools and industrial carriers for the cultivation of new-quality productive forces. From the perspectives of industrial economics and innovation economics, this paper analyzes the internal logic through which the digital economy boosts new-quality productive forces along four dimensions: factor restructuring, technological innovation, industrial iteration, and institutional environment. It identifies core variables including data factors, computing power-algorithms, digital-real integration, and platform ecology, and unpacks the progressive mechanism of “empowerment of underlying factors - transmission via mid‑tier technology and industry - leap of top-level productive forces”. Furthermore, it investigates practical constraints such as the digital divide, high transformation costs and insufficient factor synergy in the empowerment process. Corresponding optimization paths are proposed, offering theoretical references for regions to foster new-quality productive forces relying on the digital economy.
