| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立東華大學 === 公共行政研究所 === 101 === The poverty line of Mainland China has raised year by year, it should cause the poverty population to increase. However, the poverty population has decreased year by year. It is because of the continue economic development and the policy of aid-the-poor in Mainland China was executed. Therefore, the poverty population can be reduced effectively. According to the statistical data of Mainland China, the rural poverty population in 1978 was about 250 million and the rate of incidence of poverty was about 30.7%, and reduced about 3% in 2000. Until 2011, the standard of poverty line was $RMB 2300, the rural poverty population is about 120 million. Also, the poverty line was adjusted six times from 2004 to 2011. The scholars argued that the economic growth rate is faster than the adjustment of the poverty line, so the adjustment of poverty line must be extended and accelerated.
The feature of poverty has transformed under the economic growth. It makes the old poverty line not suitable and the policy of aid-the-poor cannot be executed to the needed people. For this reason, Mainland China has to modify the poverty line on the basis of the adjustment between the new and old poverty populations. It makes the policy of aid-the-poor could be executed properly.
First of all, the research is to explore the definition of poverty; the reasons of poverty in Mainland China; the standard of poverty line; the process of the aid-the-poor policies. Secondly, on basis of economic growth data from 2004 to 2011 in Mainland China, verify the correlation between the economic growth and the adjustment of poverty line.
The research assumes that it has correlation between the economic growth and the adjustment of poverty line and poverty problems. And it takes data of fourteen economic growth as empirical studies in which contains the GDP of Mainland China (including the GDP, the primary industrial sectors, the secondary industrial sectors, and the third industrial sectors), the per capita income of Mainland China (including the per capita income, the per capita disposable income of urban residents, and the per capita net income of rural residents), the employment of Mainland China (including the employment, the urban employment population, the rural employment population), and the consumer price index of Mainland China (including the consumer price index, the consumer price index of urban residents, the consumer price index of rural residents).This research also analyzes the exchange rate of RMB in Mainland China.
The research discovers that it has the correlation between the economic growth and adjustment of poverty line. It has total Mediator effest between the rural employment population and poverty line and poverty population.That is the rural employment population influenced the poverty line ,then the poverty line influenced the poverty population.
