我国城市贫困的权利理论探微

A Probe into Urban Poverty in China in terms of Entitlement Theory

运用印度经济学家阿玛蒂亚·森的权利理论,分析了中国城市贫困群体的权利现状。除以生产为基础的权利无从谈起外,以贸易为基础的权利、自己劳动的权利、继承与转移的权利都在不同程度上恶化,这是城市贫困群体出现和扩大的根本原因。从权利理论的视角反贫困,政府的工作重点应当是采取多种手段和措施改善除以贸易为基础的权利以外的三种权利。

In terms of the entitlement theory by Indian economist Amartya sen,this article analyzes entitlement situation of Chinese urban poverty groups. Trade-based entitlement,own-labor entitlement and inheritance and transfer entitlement are getting worse with the exception of the inaccessible production-based entitlement,which is the fundamental reason of emergence and enlargement of urban poverty groups. To deal with the problem of anti-poverty from the view of entitlement theory,government should take diverse measures to improve the three entitlements except for trade-based entitlement.
