城市移民的政治参与：一个社会网络的分析视角

Political Participation of Rural-to-Urban Migrants:An Aspect of Social Network Analysis

在中国,随着城市化进程的加快,大量来自乡村的移民进入城市,城市移民群体在城市社区中的社会融合与公共事务参与,对于中国未来的城市发展与社会整合具有重要的意义。使用上海地区"2009年社会网络与职业经历问卷调查",本文采用一个社会网络的分析视角,实证地验证了社会网络对于城市移民政治参与的效果。结果显示:"拜年网"的规模对于城市居民(包括上海户籍与非上海户籍)的政治参与具有负向的效果;"讨论网"的规模只对城市移民群体(非上海户籍居民)具有正向的促进作用;而"社会参与网"表现出了非常显著的正向作用,而且,城市移民群体的"社会参与网"比上海户籍居民具有更强的正向效果。

With quickened urbanization in China, many rural migrants have settled down in cities. Their social inclusion in the urban communities and involvement in public affairs are crucial to the future urban development and social integration in China. Using the data of 2009 Shanghai Social Network and Occupation History Survey, this study empirically tested the relationships of social networks with the rural-to-urban migrants ＇ political participation from the social network perspective. The following findings were obtained： The ＂New Year Greeting Network＂ has a negative effect with the political participation of urban residents （both those with regular urban household registration and those without-i, e. , the rural-to-urban migrants）; the ＂Discussion Network＂ has positive effect on the migrants＇ political participation only; and the ＂Social Participation Network＂ shows the most significant positive effect on political participation for both urban citizens and migrants. And furthermore, Social Participation Network has a bigger effect for migrants than for local citizens; And furthermore, ＂Social Participation Network＂ has a stronger effect for the migrant group than for the local group.
