<abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The construction industry is one of the important sectors for a country's economic development. Compared with the agricultural, industrial and service sectors, the theoretical circle's attention to it is obviously insufficient. Although disciplines such as management, engineering, and economics have conducted relevant research on the development of the construction industry and others from their own disciplinary perspectives, there are still few studies on the regional differences in construction industry investment and national economic security from a regional perspective. Therefore, from the perspective of regional economy, this paper explores the influence mechanism of the construction industry on regional economic security. This paper reviews the concept of economic security and the performance of the construction industry and investment. This study utilises panel data from 132 small and medium-sized cities in China, spanning from 2010 to 2023, and using the fixed effects variable coefficient model to examine the influence of construction sector development on regional growth. The analysis indicates a strong correlation between investment and development in the construction industry and the economic growth of small and medium-sized cities, demonstrating a considerable positive impact on regional economic development in the short term. However, the impact effect of the development of the construction industry on regional economic growth varies greatly in different regions. The development of the construction industry in Northeast China has a greater impact on regional economic growth.</p>

<trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Строительная отрасль является одним из важных секторов экономического развития страны. По сравнению с сельским хозяйством, промышленностью и сферой услуг, внимание к ней со стороны теоретиков явно недостаточно. Хотя такие дисциплины, как менеджмент, инженерия и экономика, проводили соответствующие исследования развития строительной отрасли и других отраслей с точки зрения своих дисциплин, исследований региональных различий в инвестициях в строительную отрасль и национальной экономической безопасности с региональной точки зрения по-прежнему мало. В данной статье исследуется с точки зрения региональной экономики механизм влияния строительной отрасли на региональную экономическую безопасность. Рассматривается концепция экономической безопасности, а также эффективность строительной отрасли и инвестиций. В исследовании используются панельные данные по 132 малым и средним городам Китая за период с 2010 по 2023 год, и модель с фиксированными эффектами и переменными коэффициентами для изучения влияния развития строительной отрасли на региональный рост. Анализ показывает сильную корреляцию между инвестициями и развитием строительной отрасли и экономическим ростом малых и средних городов, что демонстрирует значительное положительное влияние на региональное экономическое развитие в краткосрочной перспективе. Однако влияние развития строительной отрасли на региональный экономический рост существенно различается в разных регионах. Развитие строительной отрасли в Северо-Восточном Китае оказывает более сильное влияние на региональный экономический рост.</p>
