中国贫困减少的趋势、特征与政策建议

The Trend,Characteristics and Countermeasures of the Poverty Reduction in China

改革开放30年来,中国的贫困人口随经济增长迅速下降,但1985年后减贫成效趋缓。收入差距的扩大是弱化减贫效应的重要因素。新时期中国减贫事业面临贫困人口众多、分布趋于边缘化、返贫现象严重的特征。中国在今后发展中应该努力缓解收入差距、提高贫困线标准、建立健全扶贫机制和注重生态保护,以进一步缓解贫困。

Over the thirty years since China＇s reforms and opening to the world, the absolute poor population reduced with the rapid economic growth. But after 1985, the poverty reduction has had a tendency to slow down. The increasingly enlarged income disparity partially offset the achievements of poverty reduction made by economic growth. China is facing the new characters of poverty in the new era, such as the poverty headeount is still large, the distribution tends to marginalization and the phenomena of slip back to poor are severe. China＇s development in the future should strive to alleviate the income gap and raise the official poverty line, and establish and improve mechanisms focus on helping the poor and emphasis on protecting the environment, in order to further alleviate poverty.
