abstract: 'Migration is an important way for rural labourers to break the uneven
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
distribution of resources, earn more income and seek their own
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sustainable development. However, existing studies have focused more on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rural-urban migration and less on geographical migration. Our study
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
further enriches the existing research on poverty reduction and provides
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a theoretical reference for policy decisions to promote a balanced
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regional development. Using data from the China Family Panel Studies
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(CFPS) 2012-2020, we conduct benchmark estimates through linear
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
probability models and estimate the impact of migration on the relative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
poverty of the rural labourer through binary probit models. The results
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
show that migration could significantly reduce the likelihood of a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relatively poor state of rural labourers by around 4\%; the greater the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
distance of migration, the greater the effects; and migration of rural
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
labourers in the central region has the largest and most significant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relative poverty reduction effect. Furthermore, migration could also
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compensate for the disadvantages of rural labourers who are unemployed,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
less educated and in poor health, making them less likely to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relatively poor. We also use multiple linear models to examine whether
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
migration has a significant income-boosting effect on the rural people
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and found a positive result in which the effect reaches its highest in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the central region at 22.95\%. Therefore, it is necessary to further
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
break down the barriers to geographical migration of rural labourers,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
strengthen the public transportation system and pay greater attention to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Central China in order to better promote balanced development among
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regions.'
