集约型经济增长方式是最有效率地应用资源的经济增长方式。它要求资源配置的最优化，不断的科学技术的进步，不断的生产要素质量的改善和经济具有活力。这只有发挥市场机制调节资源配置的基础作用和通过市场竞争才能实现。所以，集约型经济增长方式与社会主义市场经济体制之间存在着内在的、必然的联系。 Intensive economic growth is the most efficient way to use resources for economic growth. It requires the optimization of resource allocation, the constant progress of science and technology, the constant improvement of the quality of production factors and the economy vitality. This can only be achieved by playing the basic role of the market mechanism in regulating the allocation of resources and through market competition. Therefore, there is an inherent and necessary link between the intensive economic growth mode and the socialist market economic system.
