1955～1956年上海首次城市人口紧缩与粮食供应

Shanghai's Urban Population Reduction and Staple Food Supply from 1955 to 1956

1955－1956年,上海市经历了新中国成立以来首次大规模的城市人口疏散。为了应对日益严峻的城市人口压力,上海市动员了大批外来农民回原籍生产,并组织城市失业人口前往江西等地参加垦荒建设,期间共有50余万城市人口被疏散。从人口形势与粮食供给关系来看,城市粮食供应困难是导致这次城市人口疏散的重要原因。这一事件影响到此后的国家政策走向。

Shanghai has experienced the first large-scale evacuation of the urban population from 1955 to 1956 since the founding of New China.In response to increasingly severe pressure of urban population,Shanghai mobilized a large number of nonnative peasants back to work at their birthplace and organized the urban unemployed to participate reclamation construction to Jiangxi and other places.During this period,totally more than fifty million urban populations were evacuated.From the view of the relationship between population situation and staple food supply,the difficulty of urban staple food supply was the important reason of the urban population evacuation.This event influenced the direction of national policy.
