Abstract

Based on the review of relevant literature, the definition of core concepts and the analysis of theoretical mechanisms, based on the relevant data from 2008 to 2015, the paper first used the DEA model to measure the logistics industry efficiency of the “core area” of the Silk Road Economic Belt and found that the efficiency of the overall logistics industry in the “core zone” has decreased significantly in 2009 compared to 2008. The openness index of all provinces and regions shows that the overall openness of the five Central Asian countries is higher than that of the five provinces and regions in northwest China, and mainly depends on international trade, and foreign capital dependence is lower than the five provinces and regions in the northwest. The empirical analysis of the above two aspects shows that the degree of opening to the outside world in Chinese northwest region has promoted the efficiency of the logistics industry but the impact is not significant. The opening of the "core area" and the opening of the five countries in Central Asia has a significant inhibitory effect on the efficiency of the logistics industry. It is suggested that the "core zone" of the economic zone should focus on improving the technology spillover and absorption capacity so as to increase the positive spillover effect of opening up to the logistics industry.
