Abstract

Based on a multidisciplinary economic theory including evolutionary economics, institutional economics and development economics, this study is to analyse the impact of marine culture including marine creativity(R&D investment on marine), marine globalization (joint investment on marine) and marine challenge(saving scales of coastal residents) on marine economy(GNP in marine sector) in China using quantitative analysis(regression model) and qualitative analysis(PEST model). Comparing with the marine industry’s development of the US, current maritime powerhouse in the world, this study comes to the conclusion that enhancing the marine consciousness of Chinese citizens as well as promoting the China’s marine culture are the key solutions to narrow the gap on marine industry development. Based on the proxy variables of marine culture such as R&D investment on marine, joint investment on marine and saving scales of coastal residents in China, multiple regression analysis is used to know the relationship between marine culture and marine economy. The results show that GNP in marine sector should be increased by 0.7596% when R&D investment on marine is increased by 1%, and it be increased by 0.1865% when the change in joint investment on marine is increased by 1%, while it be decreased by 0.3932% when the change in joint investment on marine is increased by 1%. This result implies that improving the marine-creative consciousness which is one of the key factors of marine culture need to be preferred to develop marine economy. In addition, this paper suggests special strategy and steps of utilizing the "mini-blog" in marine culture with a view to promoting marine consciousness in China.
