民生性财政支出对我国家庭多维贫困的影响研究

The Impact of Public Service Expenditures on Chinese Household Multidimensional Poverty

研究目标:分析民生性财政支出对我国家庭多维贫困的作用机制及减贫效应。研究方法:利用2004~2015年“中国健康与营养调查”(CHNS)面板数据,测度我国家庭的长期多维贫困指数,并构建多层模型进行实证分析。研究发现:当前我国的多维贫困主要是能力贫困;民生性财政支出对我国家庭的多维贫困具有显著的减贫效应,对农村家庭的减贫效应比城镇家庭更为显著;投资性民生支出的减贫效应比转移性民生支出更为显著。研究创新:动态分析了民生性财政支出对家庭多维贫困的影响,并控制了个体内、个体间和地区的异质性。研究价值:政府既需要完善社会机会的政策安排,注重对贫困人口持续发展能力的支持,也需要加强防御性保障制度的建设。
