A Regional Analysis Of The Social Integration Of The Migrant Population In China

Since the 1980 s,the scale of China's migrant population has experienced a rapid growth stage.According to the Report on China's migrant population development in 2018,the number of migrant population reached 244 million in 2017.In the new normal of urbanization in China,how to let the large-scale migrant population get rid of the life of migratory birds,settle down in the town and finally integrate into the urban society has become an urgent problem.Therefore,more and more scholars begin to study the social integration of Chinese migrant population.After sorting out and summarizing,it is found that the existing research results have three characteristics: more qualitative research,less quantitative research;more regional research,less overall research;more static research,less dynamic research.So it is difficult to control the social integration of migrant population objectively and comprehensively.Therefore,in order to fully understand the social integration of the migrant population in China,this paper studies from the time dimension and the space dimension.First,based on the data of China Migrants Dynamic Survey(CMDS)and China Statistical Yearbook from 2011 to 2017,a complete index evaluation system is constructed.Then,based on Bayesian spatiotemporal level nonlinear model,this paper explores the overall time effect,overall spatial effect and spatiotemporal interaction effect of the social integration degree of migrant population in 31 provinces and autonomous regions of China in 2011-2017(excluding Hong Kong,Macao Special Administrative Region and Taiwan Province).So as to realize a comprehensive and dynamic analysis of the spatial and temporal characteristics of the social integration of the migrant population.Finally,in order to explore whether the regional allocation of the scale of the migrant population based on the perspective of social integration is reasonable,the spatial distribution of the degree of social integration of the migrant population and the spatial distribution of the scale of the migrant population are compared and analyzed.The main conclusions are as follows:(1)In terms of time dimension,the social integration degree of migrant population in 31 provinces and autonomous regions of China increased in fluctuation during the research period(2011-2017).(2)From the perspective of spatial pattern,the social integration degree of migrant population in 31 provinces and autonomous regions in China has formed a relatively stable spatial feature of "high in the East and low in the west","high in the coastal area and low in the inland".(3)From the perspective of growth trend,the scores of social integration of migrant population in 31 provinces and autonomous regions showed a trend of "weak increase in high value,strong increase in low value".(4)From the perspective of social integration,after analyzing the scale distribution of the migrant population,it is found that the existing scale of the migrant population in many areas does not match the degree of social integration.This will make it more difficult for the migrant population to integrate into society,so that it is difficult to participate in economic life and enjoy high-quality public resources.Therefore,the scale distribution of migrant population needs further reasonable allocation.
