What is infrastructure in infrastructure construction?

Infrastructure is an important support for economic and social development. What exactly is infrastructure? What facilities around us are infrastructure? What is the role of infrastructure?

1. Infrastructure refers to material engineering facilities that provide public services for social production and residents' lives, and is a public service system used to ensure the normal conduct of social and economic activities in a country or region. It is the general material condition for the survival and development of society.

How to understand:

1, non-physical infrastructure can not be counted as infrastructure, must be visible, such as social security is not infrastructure;

2, to provide public services, you build a staircase in your own home, that is not infrastructure;

3. Does the vegetable garden downstairs count as a service for social production and residents' life? It also produces vegetables, and it also serves the lives of individuals. Of course not, not to serve the whole society and residents, if it is an agricultural base, then it is, to serve social production.

Ii. Scope

Infrastructure includes transportation, post and telecommunications, water and power supply, commercial services, scientific research and technical services, landscaping, environmental protection, culture, education, health and other municipal public works facilities and public life service facilities. They are the basis for the development of various undertakings in the national economy.

Understanding: Generally you need, and not you or your family to use the material facilities, basically count, such as toilets, built in the home, it is not, built in the street, you can use, everyone can use, for public life services, that is infrastructure. So, as long as you go out and walk on the street, the basic thing that catches your eye is infrastructure.

It's basically infrastructure as far as the eye can see

● Residential buildings, villas, apartments, etc

● High-end hotels, shopping malls, office buildings, office buildings and other office and commercial building projects

● Oil, coal, natural gas, electricity and other energy power projects

● Railway, highway, aviation, water transport, road and bridge, tunnel, port and other transportation projects

● Reservoir, dam, sewage treatment, air purification and other environmental protection water conservancy projects

● Telecommunications, communications, information networks and other post and telecommunications

Does it make up most of our world?

Third, why does the state attach so much importance to and advocate increasing infrastructure construction

1, let the people live happy, infrastructure to keep up. Take the transportation facilities, before home 3 days, now 3 hours, do you feel happy? As well as our mobile phone signal, there is no supporting infrastructure, it is estimated that you will not calm down, some older friends, should have experienced China Mobile, to move up to have a signal day.

2. Infrastructure construction has the so-called "multiplier effect", that is, it can bring several times the total social demand and national income of the investment. Whether the infrastructure of a country or region is perfect is an important basis for the long-term sustainable and stable development of its economy.

Oh, it is also related to the economy, what kind of relationship is it? Let's start with the multiplier effect:

Multiplier effect is a kind of macro-economic effect and a means of macro-economic control, which refers to the degree of chain reaction of the change of economic aggregate caused by the increase or decrease of a certain variable in economic activities.

In terms of investment or public expenditure, that is, the investment expenditure of one sector will be converted into income of other sectors, and the income obtained by this sector will be used for consumption or investment after deducting savings, and will be converted into income of another sector. If the cycle continues, national income increases as a multiple of investment or spending. The same is true of reduced investment. A decline in investment will cause national income to decline as a multiple of investment. The public spending multiplier works in the same way as the investment multiplier.

For example, building an industrial park is often far away from the city, but when a park is established, you will find that it not only attracts people from the construction industry to build buildings, but also attracts people who are employed to work. Gradually, living areas are established around it, and then gradually greening companies come in to engage in greening. Underground networks, water and electricity facilities, drainage, sewage treatment, transportation systems, gas stations, supermarkets have all been set up.

Just like when we play games, we either give you a sum of money to buy materials to build facilities, or give you a well-equipped base camp, so the food and grass are not moved, and the infrastructure is first.

In the 1930s, in order to cope with the unprecedented economic depression, US President Roosevelt implemented the famous "New Deal", one of the most important policies was the government-led large-scale infrastructure construction. These infrastructure projects not only increased employment and increased people's income, but also laid a solid foundation for the great development of the US economy in the later period.
