(TFP)
promotes

development.
This
study
estimates
the
TFP
of
284
cities
in
China
for
period

and
constructs
a
time-varying

zones
(DZs)
on
regional
TFP.
The
findings
are
as

(1)
although
DZs
improve
economic
performance,
they
have
not
created
growth;
(2)
despite
heterogeneous
effects
development,
overall
effect
remains
negative;
(3)
suppression
is
greater
central
western
than
eastern
cities,
underdeveloped
developed
cities.
Finally,
policies
should
consider
quality
