Along with urbanization process accelerating day by day, the problem of migrant workers’ becoming citizen is imminent. The intergenerational differentiation in migrant workers’community enables new-generation migrant workers to occupy the main body status in migrant workers. Specially, the future outlet of most new-generation migrant workers will inevitably be to settle down in the city. Thus, how to promote the urbanization of new-generation migrant workers has relation to our country’s lasting political stability, society’s harmonious development, new countryside construction and long-term healthy and stable development of our country’s economy.This article studies the urbanization of new-generation migrant workers from the angle of their own, which means the focal point of this article is to find the way to realize the new-generation migrant workers’becoming citizen under the invariable policy system frame. Before analyzing the influencing factors of urbanization, it is necessary to carry on the measurement of urbanization degree. This article firstly proposes a new measure method of urbanization degree, which analyzes from the angle of citizen demand and citizen supply. After obtaining the urbanization degree of new-generation migrant workers, the article analyzes its influencing factors.Therefore, this article mainly includes the following five parts.The first part is the research preparation. The corresponding part is the first chapter of the article. This part mainly illuminates the research background and research significance of this article. After reviewing the literature, it proposes the research target and the main research content of this article, and then summarizes the research methods, data and analysis frame used in this article. Finally, this part also defines the basic concepts, and introduces the background of theory and policy used in this article.The second part is the theoretical analysis. The corresponding part is the second chapter of the article. This part carries on the analysis of new-generation migrant workers’ urbanization from the angle of static state and dynamic state. From the static angle, this paper analyzes influence of human capital, social capital as well as their coupling on the utilization by using the elementary theory of general equilibrium, The study finds that there is a complementary relation between human capital and social capital, and the improvement of human capital has a vital role in promoting urbanization. The coupling of human capital and social capital’s is higher will enhance the urbanization degree. From the dynamic angle, this paper analyzes influence of game between the government and the migrant workers on the utilization by using the elementary theory of evolution gambling, The research discovers that enhancing the migrant workers’citizen demand will promote the maximization of entire social utility, and only when the citizen supply quantity provided by the government is bigger than the migrant workers’citizen demand quantity, can it produce stable equilibrium. Under the present situation of insufficient citizen supply provided by the government, increasing the citizen demand and supply will promote the social utility maximization.The third part is the measurement of new-generation migrant workers’urbanization degree and includes the third, fourth, fifth and sixth chapter. The third chapter carries on a descriptive analysis on the data used in the empirical analysis of the article and then compares the difference of own characteristic, countryside withdrawal, city entry and urban inclusion between new-generation and previous generation migrant workers. The fourth chapter analyzes new-generation migrant workers’citizen demand and defines the concept and the measure target of citizen demand. We thought that there is a threshold in the citizen demand, only when the labor supply curve is above the threshold can it be the citizen demand curve, and then this paper carries on an empirical analysis on this theory. The study discovers that the income has a remarkable influence on the citizen demand under the threshold, namely the new-generation migrant workers are seeking for income maximization during this stage; But the income has unremarkable influence on the citizen demand above the threshold, namely the new-generation migrant workers are seeking for effectiveness maximization during this stage.The fifth chapter analyzes new-generation migrant workers’citizen supply and defines the concept and the measure target of citizen supply, and then it analyzes influencing factors of work stability and wage income separately. The research shows that the job of new-generation migrant workers with high level education is stabler, and they may not leave their job easily; However, the increasing of work time in the city will affect them to choose whether taking occupational mobility or not, but it has no posotive correlation with the occupational mobility times.The primary factors that affecting the new-generation migrant workers’ wage income are the education level, working time in the city as well as their interactions. The sixth chapter measures the urbanization degree and citizen inhibitory degree in sample areas through the demand identify biprobit model and then carries on a robustness test.The fourth part is the influencing factors of urbanization of new-generation migrant workers. The corresponding part is the seventh chapter of the article. According to the result of urbanization degree and citizen repression degree obtained from chapter six, this chapter analyzes the influencing factors of new-generation migrant workers’urbanization degree and citizen inhibitory degree in sample area Shenyang and Yuyao by adopting the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition method and quantile regression decomposition method. The research discoveres that there is great difference between the two area’s urbanization degree, and the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition shows that, the coefficient difference is the primary factor causing the regional difference, moreover, the occupational strata’s difference in the coefficient difference may explain completely the urbanization degree difference. Similarly, the two areas also have the big difference in citizen repression degree. The Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition finds that, the contribution of characteristic difference achieves 40%. This article further uses the quantile regression method to analyze the contribution of human capital and social capital. The result shows that the social capital has a forward influence on reducing citizen inhibitory degree, however, only when the citizen inhibitory degree is high, can we enhance the human capital to reduce the citizen repression degree.The fifth part is the policy suggestion. The corresponding part is the eighth chapter of the article. This part proposes the corresponding micromanagement countermeasures to the new-generation migrant workers based on the conclusion obtained from this article. In reference to the aspect of household registration system, it should cancel welfare distribution whch is related with the household registration system, and reduce the threshold for the migrant workers to settle down. In reference to the aspect of housing, it should encourage to employment units build dormitories by themselves and bring the new generation migrant workers according with conditions into the right enjoying scope of the urban safeguard buildings. For the aspect of human capital cultivation, it should firstly strengthen the compulsory education in countryside areas; secondly it may enhance the vocational education training and finally it would reinforce the enthusiasm of enterprises to carry on on-the-jobing training for the migrant workers. For the aspect of social capital construction, it should firstly increase the construction of the new generation migrant workers’contractual social capital; secondly it may consummate the construction of the new generation migrant workers’ institutional social capital; and finally it would strengthen the social capital self-investment of the new generation migrant workers.
