Abstract
The article examines the coupling coordination level in Zhejiang Province from 2015 to 2021 from the standpoint of high-quality development. It does this by building two evaluation index systems for the development levels of rural e-commerce and the digital economy, respectively, using the coupling coordination degree model and the entropy power method. It also examines the primary factors that impede the development of the coupling coordination in these two areas. The findings indicate that, from 2015 to 2021, the overall system integrated development level of the digital economy and rural e-commerce increased steadily. The main factors impeding the system's development are the full-time equivalent of R&D personnel, the number of employment in the information and communication industry, the number of rural logistics employees, and rural delivery routes, which should be tackled with effective measures in the process of high-quality development.
