How Urban Public Service Affects the Well-Being of Migrant Workers:An Empirical Analysis Based on the Theoretical Perspective of Social Comparison Theory

Government city management is facing higher requirements with the development of the number of migrant workers.Therefore,improving their subjective well-being is a significant practical problem that the government must consider in public governance.This research discusses the influence of public service satisfaction on the well-being of urban migrant workers from the perspective of social comparison theory and the role of the sense of social equity and social conflict in the process of this influence.Using the structural equation modeling and moderated mediating mechanism analysis,the results show that:(1)the satisfaction of social and economic public service significantly and positively affects subjective well-being.(2)The sense of social equity completely mediated the influence of the satisfaction of public social service on well-being and partly mediated the influence of the satisfaction of public financial service on well-being.(3)The sense of social equity and conflict have a moderated mediating effect for social and economic public service satisfaction on well-being.Finally,the article concludes with some suggestions to improve the well-being of migrant workers based on the conclusion of the study.

On the Process of Peasant Workers' Transformation to Urban Residents

The unique two-stage "Chinese path" of China’s ru-ral-urban migration, which cannot be fully explained by classical theories of economic development, makes us to give peasant workers’ transformation to urban residents a top priority. On the basis of fully explaining peasant workers’ transformation to urban residents, a method for measuring its process has been advanced and then confirmed with the data of March in 2005 from surveys to peasant workers in Wuhan. Finally, the suggestions of acceler-ating peasant workers’ transformation to urban residents to pro-mote the construction of a harmonious society have been drawn from the analysis.

Urbanization and Workers' Compensation in China from 1995 to 2012

In order to determine the trend in the number of employees covered by workers＇ compensation （WC） and trends in the burdens and benefits of WC, and to discuss the possible factors that might influence those trends. A relevant national statistical data from 1995 to 2012 are collected and analyzed. In the results, we found that the proportion of employees covered by WC to total employees in urban areas increased from 13.7% in 1995 to 51.2% in 2012 and also exhibited a significant degree of polarization. In 2012, 27.3% of the peasant workers were covered by WC, which accounted for 37.8% of the total employees covered by WC. Factors found to impact the number of employees covered by WC and trends in the burdens and benefits of WC from 1995 to date in China included urbanization, represented by the migration of farm labor to urban areas, changes in industry mix, regional disparity, GDP movements, and changes to legislation on WC and occupational health and safety.

城市户外劳动者服务站点空间分布评价:以厦门市厦门岛为例

基于人本主义理念,从城市户外劳动者服务站点主要服务群体的需求出发,从需求目标、模型评价、反馈评价3个层面,构建交通便捷度、道路旁站点供需指数、用地内站点供需指数等评价指标及定量化评价模型,以厦门市厦门岛爱心驿站为例,研究城市户外劳动者服务站点空间分布的合理性,并通过主要服务群体反馈评价服务站点对服务群体需求的满足程度。结果表明:厦门岛服务站点交通便捷度空间分异显著;分布在城市支路和主干道/快速路旁的服务站点数量供需基本平衡,次干道旁的站点呈轻度供不应求;居住、商业设施、商务设施、交通设施四类用地内服务站点的供需匹配度相对较好,教育科研、文化设施和体育、医疗卫生等用地的供需匹配度相对较差,服务群体对各类用地满意度评价与供需匹配状态基本契合。建议从制定规划建设标准、统筹站点规划布局、盘活存量更新改造等方面优化城市户外劳动者服务站点布局。

城乡迁徙视角下我国青年农民工政治参与的多重影响因素探究--基于CGSS 2017年数据的AMOS结构方程分析

青年农民工是一个规模庞大的群体,对我国的政治生态、民主发展和社会治理有着重要影响,是政治参与研究的重点对象之一。研究青年农民工政治参与,有两个视角值得关注:宏观上,从动态的社会变迁层面关注城乡迁徙的流动性,这是青年农民工群体的结构性特征;微观上,关注城乡迁徙中的社会关系网络与媒体使用的变化,这是对青年农民工政治参与的动机、态度及行为产生持续影响的重要因素。本研究旨在通过这两个视角探讨媒体使用和社会关系网络对青年农民工政治参与产生的影响。基于中国综合社会调查(CGSS)2017年的调查数据,本文运用AMOS结构方程模型分析迁徙年限和不同的媒体使用与社会关系网络对青年农民工政治参与的影响。研究发现,除纵向社会关系网络对意见流法定政治参与具有显著负效应外,横向、纵向社会关系网络在其他方面均表现为显著正效应,这表明在城乡迁徙时空格局中,横向、纵向社会关系网络作为信息传播的“媒介化”作用,对青年农民工政治参与具有显著影响,这对提升新时代青年农民工政治参与水平和优化社会治理路径具有参考价值。

新生代农民工举家迁移对教育支出的影响研究

基于中国家庭追踪调查数据和实地调研发现:存在子女随迁现象的新生代农民工家庭均为举家迁移。举家迁移显著增加家庭教育支出,随迁子女数与家庭教育支出显著正相关。家中既有男孩又有女孩的举家迁移家庭教育支出显著增加,家中只有男孩的家庭教育支出显著高于家中只有女孩的家庭。相比中部和东部,西部新生代农民工举家迁移显著增加家庭教育支出。建议积极落实“两为主”“两纳入”“两统一”“同城化”等随迁子女教育政策,切实减轻农民工家庭教育负担;统筹义务教育资源均衡配置,努力缩小教育区域化差异;完善户籍制度和流动人口服务体系,衔接城乡有关社会保障与福利政策,促进农民工随迁家庭整体市民化。

China's next giant:Urbanized migrants as new consumers

劳动权益保障、政府信任与高龄农民工的城市融合

基于调研数据,本文考察了劳动权益保障对高龄农民工城市融合的影响机制。实证结果显示,工资拖欠、工伤纠纷、劳动合同纠纷等劳动权益受损事件均会显著影响高龄农民工城市融合程度。对劳动权益纠纷解决过程的进一步考察发现:第一,劳动权益受损事件发生后,当高龄农民工对维权过程解决较为满意时,其城市融合程度显著高于没有发生过劳动权益纠纷者;第二,政府部门主导解决劳动权益纠纷对高龄农民工城市融合具有一定的“放大效应”。当高龄农民工对维权解决过程满意时,解决过程中的政府干预会显著提高其城市融合程度;当其对维权解决过程不满意时,解决过程中的政府干预反而使其城市融合程度下降的幅度更大。因此,本文认为应健全源头预防,杜绝劳动权益纠纷事件发生;建立农民工劳动权益保护协调机制;强化政府责任意识,属地监管、多部门协同,发挥政府在高龄农民工劳动权益保障工作中的积极作用。

面向城市一线务工人员的保障性租赁住房区位选址研究

大力发展保障性租赁住房是我国“十四五”时期住房建设的重点,关注城市一线务工人员的住房保障需求,尤其是建设供给符合这类人群住房特征需求的租赁住房,成为目前亟待解决的问题。在总结国内外面向这类人群住房供应相关经验的基础上,基于对建筑、环卫、绿化养护、快递等行业的城市一线务工人员的问卷调查,分析总结这类人群的住房区位共性需求,构建了生活性、便利性、经济性、发展性四维度加权总和的区位选址模型,利用上海市的相关数据进行实证分析,提出要紧密结合就业机会区域、优先考虑在社会经济密度比较集中、交通条件比较好的地段镶嵌式散点状形成此类保障住房空间供应,并合理控制每处供应规模;在房源分配管理上要因时因地动态调整提高区位房源供给的适配性,此外还应整合多方管理服务的配套支持,提高保障供应效果,实现住房保障发展的初衷和城市化发展的战略目标,为政府住房保障部门在面向城市一线务工人员的保障性租赁住房项目中的选址评估与审批提供参考。

老龄化背景下我国城镇职工基本养老保险制度改革潜在方案效果研究——基于瑞典零支柱保障型养老金视角

随着人口老龄化的加剧,我国城镇职工基本养老保险制度面临财政压力,有必要考虑改革城镇职工基本养老保险制度。文章通过探究我国养老制度改革的潜在方案,旨在利用数值模拟的方法为我国城镇职工基本养老保险制度改革提供一定借鉴。改革方案以瑞典公共养老金制度中的零支柱保障型养老金为参照,利用公共养老金制度的收入再分配功能,将瑞典养老金制度中的零支柱保障型养老金与我国城镇职工基本养老保险制度中的基本养老金进行了比较。模拟结果表明,从基本养老金向零支柱保障型养老金的转变并不总是产生有利的结果。如果考虑实施一种与我国现行城镇职工基本养老保险制度规模类似的为低收入职工提供养老资金的公共养老金制度,那么当这种公共养老金制度由间接税提供资金时,不仅有利于实现代际公平,而且还会缓解人口老龄化对我国基本养老金制度的冲击,提高社会福利水平。

人口老龄化视域下瑞典养老保险制度及其对我国的启示

在人口老龄化背景下,我国城镇职工基本养老保险还存在全国统筹尚未完全发展成熟,地区间养老金存在差异,基本养老保险财务可持续性面临压力,养老金替代率低等问题。瑞典作为老龄化国家实行多支柱养老保障体系,借鉴瑞典养老保险制度的先进经验,提出应不断完善统账结合制度模式中的个人账户,发展多层次养老保险,实施渐进式延迟退休政策等建议,以期为我国城镇职工基本养老保险发展提供参考。
