民族地区义务教育财政支出的绩效评价研究——基于湖北恩施土家族苗族自治州的调查

A Study on Performance Assessment of Financial Expenditure on Compulsory Education in Ethnic Regions——Based on an Investigation of Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture

2006年春季我国在西部实施农村义务教育经费保障措施,至今已在全国城乡推广开来。湖北省恩施土家族苗族自治州是民族聚居地区、农村地区和贫困地区在地理空间上为交互"叠加"关系的地区。如何把国家对该地区有限的义务教育投入进行优化配置,提高教育质量和相关制度建设,树立民族地区可持续减贫的理念,使有限的公共财政支出发挥更大的绩效是亟待解决的问题。本研究深入恩施州几县市进行实地调查,分析恩施州义务教育经费新机制实施之后经费的投入和使用状况,从而发现存在的问题并提出相应的政策建议。

The financial guarantee mechanism for rural compulsory education in the Western China started in the spring of 2006.By now,it has been carried out in urban and rural areas all over the country.Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture is not only a compact community of minorities but also a poverty-stricken rural area.The problems demanding prompt solution are how to optimize limited disposition of the state input for compulsory education in this region,how to improve education quality and construct relevant systems,and how to uphold the concept of sustainable poverty reduction in ethnic regions to give full play to better performance of limited public finance expenditure.In this study,a field investigation was made in a few counties in Enshi Prefecture to analyze financial input and application after the implementation of the new financial mechanism for compulsory education so as to find out problems and put forward policy suggestions.
