| The promotion of human capital is the key to ensuring the sustainability of poverty reduction.Most of the existing literatures estimate the poverty reduction effect of human capital stocks with health and education as the connotation under the assumption of homogenization of family human capital structure,and pay less attention to the possible impact of differences in family human capital structure on rural poverty.Based on the 2010-2016 China Household Tracking Survey(CFPS)household data,this paper uses the APOUEY index method to measure the distribution structure of household human capital at the household level,and measures the human capital hierarchy of different households through the hierarchical proportional method.On this basis,from the dual perspectives of income level and income gap,the fixed effects and quantile regression methods are used to deeply study the specific impact of human capital structure embodied in health and education on rural poverty reduction.The study found that:(1)Considering the differences in family human capital structure,the increase in human capital stock reflected in rural family health and education has significantly increased the income of poor farmers,and education is still playing a role in narrowing the income gap between poor and non-poor households.A positive role.(2)The rural family health and education distribution structure coefficient has played a certain role in alleviating absolute poverty and relative poverty,and the healthy structure has a greater impact on rural poverty reduction than its stock.(3)The level of family health and the increase in the proportion of human capital in the family’s junior high school level are all conducive to the increase of income of poor households and narrow the income gap between non-poor households.Moreover,for the extremely poor households,the impact of the high school and illiterate and primary school level on the income gap has also begun to manifest,the former has significantly narrowed the income gap,while the latter has significantly expanded the income gap of farmers,leading to more serious income inequality.The policy implication is that the government should shift from focusing solely on human capital stocks to promoting the optimization of household human capital structures.According to the different human capital structure of different families,we will carry out differentiated assistance policies,increase the investment of healthy human capital of poor households,and focus on improving the proportion of education human capital in the middle and high schools of poor households.The possible innovations in this paper are as follows:(1)This paper recognizes that human capital structure is also an important factor affecting income,and systematically studies the relationship between family human capital distribution,hierarchical structure and rural poverty reduction.(2)Combining the current China’s precise poverty alleviation policy,focusing on the research perspective to micro-family,innovatively studied the impact of family human capital structure on rural poverty reduction.(3)Using the APOUEY(2007)method,which is more suitable for measuring discrete ordered variables,the distribution structure of human capital in rural households from 2010 to 2016 is measured.From the dual perspectives of income level and income gap,the quantile regression method is used to study rural areas.Poverty reduction. |
