Abstract
1.the Research Question: -What does the framework of China's planning system look like, i.e. the positioning and internal structure of the framework and its components? -What is the relationship between various types of planning in the system? How do they combine with each other? 2.Background:As an important policy tool for governing the country and guiding economic and social development, the planning system has played a positive role in China's rapid economic and social development.However, during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, the number of national plans has reached 306. Meanwhile, there are different degrees of unclear positioning, overlapping content, non-coordination and other problems among them. It seriously affects the overall effectiveness of the planning system.Although many experts and scholars have conducted studies on the current situation of the planning system, most of them are qualitative studies, and the internal structure and order of the planning system are relatively lacking in quantitative analysis. 3.the Methods:Taking 306 national plans during the 13th Five-Year Plan period as samples, the framework and order of the planning system were analyzed quantitatively and visually using vector space model, TF-IDF coefficient, correlation coefficient, associated map visualization methods. The vector space model with feature weight (TF-IDF) was used to express each plan. The correlation coefficient was used to measure the degree of correlation between plans. The associated map visualization was made by UCINET and NetDraw software to visualize the centrality and the relationship network of the plans. 4.Results: -Among the 306 plans, there are one national development plan, three territorial and spatial plans, 274 special plans and 28 regional plans. -The plans can be divided into eight areas: livelihood security, industrial system, natural resources, ecological environment, agriculture and rural areas, infrastructure, scientific and technological innovation, and others. They accounted for 24.73%, 17.45%, 11.77%, 10.46%, 10.13%, 9.15%, 5.88% and 4.58% in the sample set, respectively. -By comparing the feature weights of the planning, the findings are as follows: Firstly, the national development planning is remarkably comprehensive. Secondly, there are significant differences between spatial planning and national development planning. Thirdly, the National territorial planning and the main functional zone planning have a very high degree of fitting in each feature. -The total TF-IDF value (10-4) of natural resources, infrastructure, industrial system, people's livelihood, agriculture and rural areas, scientific and technological innovation, ecological environment and other fields decreased successively, which were 1274.67, 1002.25, 847.14, 726.59, 717.44, 502.19, 321.28, respectively. -Natural resources are closely related to ecological environment plans, while natural resources, ecological environment and industrial system are less closely related. Scientific and technological innovation is closely related to industrial system in intelligence, manufacturing and other aspects. -It is suggested that the list of national special planning and the list of national spatial planning should be compiled in a coordinated and differentiated way. 5.Reference: -Opinions of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on Unifying the Planning System to Give Better Play to the Strategic Guiding Role of National Development Planning -Opinions of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on Establishing a Territorial Spatial Planning System and Supervising its Implementation 6.Note:This paper is an exploration of using text analysis method to study on the framework and order of the planning system by using quantitative methods. However, the results still have the following shortcomings: The sample set was collected online, so plans that aren't posted online may fall through the cracks. In addition, the research category is the empirical judgment after literature review, rather than the absolute text cluster analysis in the strict sense, which has certain subjective factors.
