Abstract

Aiming at the strategic requirements of China's innovation-driven and high-quality development, this paper, centering on the spatial economic proposition of "where is innovation", constructs a new spatial economic model driven by qualities of space, and studies the influence mechanism of qualities of space on the location of talents and the growth of human capital. The results show that when the expected human capital investment is not taken into account, talents are transferred orderly according to the critical migration curve, and the migration decision is stable. The improvement of ecological environment is conducive to attracting talents, thus improving the growth of regional human capital. When the convenience effect in the intra-region is larger than that in the inter-region, the improvement of non-tradable variety or quality of the region can attract more talents and promote the growth of regional human capital. When the convenience effect in the intra-region is smaller than that in the inter-region, improving the non-tradable variety or quality of the region will not effectively attract talents. Improving the convenience of consumption in the intra-region is conducive to attracting talents and promoting the growth of regional human capital. Improving the convenience of inter-regional consumption is conducive to restraining the migration of talents and promoting the growth of regional human capital. When considering the expected human capital investment, the stable situation of talent migration is theoretically the "core-periphery", and different local qualities only affect the "threshold value" of critical migration. The research results have policy implications for the scientific understanding of the spatial allocation of human resources, the cultivation and improvement of human capital, and the promotion of regional innovation-driven and high-quality development.
