Abstract

Pearl River Delta region is an important economic central region in China. It is crucial to reduce isomorphism between industries, improve industrial structure and strengthen competitiveness. This paper employs similarity coefficient of industrial structure to measure the degree of convergence between 9 cities in Pearl River Delta. The results illustrate there is an obvious industrial structure convergence in the three industries. The author figured out the measure respectively based on the internal industrial structure convergence among three industries. It was found that internal industrial structure similarity coefficient of the secondary industry is higher than the other two and the tertiary industry is larger than the primary industry. Therefore, more attention should be paid to achieve differentiation development of tertiary industry and primary industry and to promote the division of labor and cooperation of internal industries between cities.
