Book Description
Poverty alleviation is a common issue facing the majority of the Third World countries. Since the 1970s, the fact that the number of the poor in some developing countries has increased together with the fact that economic growth has aroused widespread concern of the international community. Therefore, development economics stressed the trade-off between "efficiency" and "equity" under special circumstances and clearly differentiated the concept of "growth" from "development." From then on, how to alleviate and eliminate poverty while pursuing economic growth became a development issue. At present, poverty in China is manifested as regional poverty in the rural society. Unlike the countries which allow free migration of population, the poor of China are concentrated in rural areas. This study focuses on the examination of the role of "Yigong-daizhen" projects in poverty alleviation.

Book Description
Poverty eradication is a common challenge faced by human beings. As the largest developing country, China has always placed poverty alleviation at a prominent position in its governance. On February 25, 2021, China fully completed its poverty alleviation goals and tasks, and the issue of absolute poverty was historically resolved, which greatly accelerated global poverty reduction process and wrote a new chapter in history of human anti-poverty. From the perspective of development economics, this book, taking economic growth and distributional regulation as the core thread and, public services, social security, ecological environmental protection as key elements, systematically sorts out through theoretical logic of poverty reduction in China's poverty eradication period, discusses and analyses implementation path of China's important poverty reduction measures, summarizes and shares China's poverty reduction experience in winning battle against poverty, which contributes Chinese wisdom and Chinese proposals to cause of global poverty reduction. The book consists of 7 chapters, roughly divided into three parts. The first part systematically analyzes basic features, policy system framework and implementation mechanism of China's poverty eradication and the results achieved from the perspective of international poverty reduction. The second part elaborates on theoretical logic, paths and policies, and practical experience of poverty reduction from five aspects: economic growth, distribution regulation, public services, social security, and ecological environmental protection. The third part summarizes China's experience in poverty alleviation from multiple perspectives.

Book Description
This open access book explores new research directions in social inequality and urban segregation. With the goal of fostering an ongoing dialogue between scholars in Europe and China, it brings together an impressive team of international researchers to shed light on the entwined processes of inequality and segregation, and the implications for urban development. Through a rich collection of empirical studies at the city, regional and national levels, the book explores the impact of migration on cities, the related problems of social and spatial segregation, and the ramifications for policy reform. While the literature on both segregation and inequality has traditionally been dominated by European and North American studies, there is growing interest in these issues in the Chinese context. Economic liberalization, rapid industrial restructuring, the enormous growth of cities, and internal migration, have all reshaped the country profoundly. What have we learned from the European and North American experience of segregation and inequality, and what insights can be gleaned to inform the bourgeoning interest in these issues in the Chinese context? How is China different, both in terms of the nature and the consequences of segregation inequality, and what are the implications for future research and policy? Given the continued rise of China’s significance in the world, and its recent declaration of war on poverty, this book offers a timely contribution to scholarship, identifying the core insights to be learned from existing research, and providing important guidance on future directions for policy makers and researchers.

Book Description
China has achieved remarkable progress in poverty alleviation since the start of its reform process, with rural poverty having dropped from 30.7 per cent in 1978 to 2.6 per cent in 2005. Rural-urban labour migration on an unprecedented scale played a vital role in rural income growth, poverty reduction and economic development. Empirical evidence shows that while the vast rural to urban migration does not significantly increase urban income poverty, labour market discrimination and social exclusion expose rural migrants to many risks and vulnerabilities in the cities, where the poor are becoming increasingly marginalised. Capacity building for the poor, the adoption of an integrated labour market system that also takes account of migrants, and the creation a of rural social security system are the three important poverty alleviation options promoted by the government. Although migration in China has unique institutional characteristics owing to the existence of the hukou system (Household Registration System), the experience of China has important lessons for our understanding of the impact of migration on development and poverty reduction.

Book Description
Poverty Reduction and Sustainable Development in Rural China is translated from the original Chinese to provide a look into how scholars in China have been assessing perceptions of poverty and reforms to improve conditions. This volume, and the others in the SSRC series, provides Western scholars with an accessible English language look at the state of current scholarship in China and, as such, does not simply provide information for the direct study of socio-political issues, but also for meta-level analysis of how the domestic scholarship in China is developing and assessing the interplay of the country's political and economic reforms with the society and daily life of its people.
