As an important part of migrant groups,farmers are closely related to social stability and economic prosperity.With the advancement of reform and opening up,the level of industrialization,urbanization and modernization has been continuously improved,thus opening the "door" of rural areas to cities.This not only brings huge economic benefits,but also leads to changes in farmers' values.Social mobility starts to develop from the individual actions of a few farmers to the normal choice of most farmers.As far as individual farmers are concerned,their urban mobility behavior mainly depends on their mobility intention,which is closely related to many factors.Subjectively,individual values and social identity are important influencing factors,and the happiness view,as an important part of values,also plays a guiding role in people's specific behaviors.As a group concept,social identity is the concentrated embodiment of people's action orientation and plays an irreplaceable role in farmers' urban mobility intention.This study through in-depth understanding of current our country farmer happiness,social identity,the status quo of urban mobility intend to explore under the interaction of happiness and social identity is how to influence the formation of the will of farmers to urban mobility,in order to establishment and perfecting the government to adapt to the strategy of rejuvenating rural policies,guide the urban floating population to adapt to urban development policy,strengthen farmers' happiness education policy and so on practical work to provide the reference suggestion.Under the guidance of MarxismView ofHappinessand Ttheory of Routine actiity,this study conducted a questionnaire survey on the happiness view,social identity and urban mobility intention of 555 farmers in XX village,trying to understand the status quo and the relationship among the happiness view,social identity and urban mobility intention of farmers.This study has the following findings:(1)The view of happiness.Firstly,theview of happiness concept mainly includes five aspects,namely,enjoyment-entertainment,pursuit-struggle,family-happiness,interpersonal harmony,life-prosperity,showing diversified characteristics.In terms of the subject of happiness value,farmers attach greatimportance to family and individuals,followed by the country,organization(village collective)and the whole world.In terms of access to happiness,I agree that creation and enjoyment are equally important.Secondly,there are differences in the concept of happiness in terms of demographic variables.Compared with men,women attach more importance to enjoyment--entertainment,pursuit--struggle,family--happiness and interpersonal harmony.The less educated farmers were,the less they valued enjoyment and entertainment.Young farmers value enjoyment more-entertainment;Farmers in good physical condition attach more importance to enjoyment-entertainment,pursuit-struggle,family-happiness and interpersonal-harmony.Farmers with children attach more importance to pursuit-struggle,family-happiness,interpersonal harmony,life-prosperity.Married farmers attach more importance to family-happiness,interpersonal harmony,life-prosperity;Farmers who are not the only children attach more importance to the pursuit--struggle,family--happiness and interpersonal harmony.Finally,the urban experience influences the happiness view of peasants,and the peasants with urban work and life experience attach more importance to the pursuit--struggle.(2)The social identity.First of all,the social identity of farmers has changed,the group emotional sense of belonging to the highest.Secondly,there are differences in demographic variables of social identity.Women are more proud of their peasant status than men.The older the farmers,the more they see their fate as tied to that of other rural people;The less educated,children,non-only children and married farmers are more willing to participate in rural institutions and activities;Farmers in better health and above prefer to socialize with people from the countryside.Finally,urban experience will increase farmers' social identity.Farmers with urban work and life experience are more willing to tell others that I come from the countryside.(3)The willingness of urban mobility.First of all,the internal structure of farmers' willingness to move in the city is differentiated,which is manifested as the inconsistency between their willingness to move permanently and temporarily.To be specific,farmers tend to live and work in the city,but prefer to provide for the aged in the countryside.Secondly,there are differences in the demographic variables of farmers' willingness to move to cities.The average farmer who is in poor health is more willing to stay in the city for the aged than the farmer who is in goodhealth.Farmers under 50 and without children are more likely to work in cities.The poorer the farmer,the less likely he is to live in the city.Finally,urban experience affects the willingness of farmers to move to cities,and farmers with urban work experience are more inclined to provide for the aged in rural areas.(4)The relationship between happiness view social identity and urban mobility intention.First of all,the components of pursuit-struggle,family-happiness,and interpersonal harmony have positive predictive effects on social identity,and pursuit-struggle has negative predictive effects on urban pension intention.Secondly,social identity plays a negative role in predicting urban mobility intention.Finally,social identity plays a significant mediating role between the concept of happiness and the willingness to move around the city.Specifically,it plays a complete mediating role between the pursuit-struggle component and the willingness to live and work in the city,and a partial mediating role between it and the willingness to provide for the aged in the city.It plays a mediating role between family-happiness,interpersonal-harmony and urban mobility(life,work,pension).This study has the following basic conclusions :(1)the family orientation in traditional culture still influences the happiness view of Chinese farmers.(2)farmers prefer to go to cities to work and live,and stay in the countryside to provide for the aged.(3)the happiness view affects social identity and urban mobility intention,and the mediating effect of social identity is significant.(4)urban experience intensifies pursuit--struggle,and produces "siege effect" on social identity and urban mobility intention.Based on the findings and conclusions of this paper,the following countermeasures and Suggestions are put forward :(1)pay attention to the needs of family development,and effectively promote family harmony and happiness.(2)strengthen education on the concept of happiness and guide the pursuit of the value of happiness.(3)accelerate the integrated development of urban and rural social security and enhance social identity.(4)pay attention to farmers' vocational skills training and improve their social adaptability.
