Social Integration Of Residents In The Transitional Community

As the logical intermediary of the accommodation of new urban immigrants, Social adaptation may evolve into four different statuses : Integration, Assimilation, Separation or Marginalization. As the result of mandatory institutional change, the transitional community is filled with residents who are mainly formed by land-lost famers and floating population. These residents are the key group conducting social adaptation. Also, they are currently at the key point of social adaptation. So we take the residents as the object of study as well as the transitional community the carrier.The essay starts from normative study. An index system of social adaptation is made to evaluate in which stage the residents are. Based on the data collected by questionnaires, factor analysis is made and 5 factors named with financial capital, human capital, rights capital, social capital and cultural capital. The conclusion which drawed from the analysis of residents behavior on 5 factors shows that currently residents` social adaptation has the trend of assimilation, separation or marginalization.The phenomenon appears because of the ’Two Loops System’. One is the disorder of the inner loop, the loop of factor abundance,which is characterized by employment filtration and cost overload on financial capital, cycle of low capacity and lack of self-developed ability on human capital, imbalance and invalidation of rights on rights capital, cultural conflict and disintegration of original culture. The other is the solidification of the outer loop, which is the loop of structural social exclusion-imbalanced factor abundance-functional social exclusion. Therefore, in order to achieve successful social integration, factor abundance, the intersection of the double-loop system, should be viewed as the breach to social integration obstacles. so we must optimize the inner loop and break the outer loop.
