Since the reform and opening up, China's economic growth rate and GDP has been created record, but residents of the expansion, the gap between rich and poor, dual economy between urban and rural has become an economic miracle behind disharmonious factors, explore the gap between rich and poor has been a hot issue. Research found that our country has more than 0.5 gini coefficient, the gap between rich and poor has exceeded the reasonable limits and entered into the huge gap ranks. However, in recent years, China's economic and social development present situation shows that gini coefficient outnumbering the international security line does not lead to our country social unrest. Visible, gini coefficient and statistical indexes that based on section data cannot reflect the residents of the real disparity between rich and poor, and income mobility which based on the panel data has more practical meaning.This paper, based on the Chinese health and nutrition survey (1989-2009) data to our country present stage income mobility to study in detail. First comparative study of rural and urban residents personal income mobility in 20 years; the trend of change Then for urban residents, through the parents and the younger samples in urban residents to explore match between the intergenerational income mobility development present situation; Finally Logistic use two regression model is likely to affect the income mobility of the micro factors were analyzed, explores the influence degree and direction.This paper mainly content by four parts, the arrangements are as follows:The first chapter of the paper mainly introduces the background and significance, research situation, the whole research methods and possible innovative and shortage. This chapter intergenerational income mobility, from within the intergenerational income mobility between income mobility and the influence factors of the three aspects of the research in our country income mobility and the gap between rich and poor relations.The second chapter of this theory structure income mobility is introduced, and the commonly used measure. This chapter intergenerational income mobility within the measure index into relativism measure index and absolute socialist measure index. Which relativism measures including inertia rate, and inertia rate, the average turnover, Shorrocks index and M index; Absolute socialist measure index is mainly refers to the Euclidean distance functions. In the measure the intergenerational income mobility between, this chapter of the method is to use the income elastic coefficient method, also is the younger relative to the income of the parents income elastic coefficient. Finally, this paper through the Logistic regression model to measure income mobility influence factors and its influence size.Chapter 3 is for our country income liquidity empirical analysis of the present situation, based on China's health and nutrition survey (1989-2009) data are from the quantitative and qualitative analysis Angle in our country, the size of the income mobility and influencing factors. Through empirical analysis found that, in rural and urban income mobility present higher early fit, all is the increased gradually. 1997-2000 is turning point, since 2000 rural residents income mobility steadily rising, city residents income mobility is to drop quickly. While the city residents between the intergenerational income mobility presents the first up, and then down the fluctuation. Finally, based on the findings of the micro factors, rural and urban income mobility influence factors are also obvious dual economy. In rural model, gender variables and age of variables is very significant, and in city model, micro factors extremely not significant, and even some years without the influence factors into the model.The fourth chapter expounding the main income mobility and the gap between rich and poor action results, and puts forward some policy Suggestions. Research shows that the gap between rich and poor has continued to increase, signs of urban and rural economic development dual economy type increasingly seriously. According to this phenomenon, should be further expand rural industry diversification, increase rural income source, macroeconomic regulation agricultural prices, avoid " Cheap grain harms the peasants " phenomenon, fundamentally change the present situation of the farmers rely on. Establishing a rural social security system, make rural residents in old have. And further improve rural medical security system so as to reduce the rural residents for disease or other accident the extra spending from high income levels fell into the impact of low-income class.The main innovations of this paper is that it draw the conclusion based on the panel data from different angles and the different ways to measure income mobility. Also the research conclusion can be more comprehensive because we compared rural and urban income mobility in one paper. This paper deficiency lie in that it is unable to fully consider the influence factors because of limit of research data and time, which leads to that the conclusion is a bit of a lack of convincing.
