摘要
土地与教育都能减少农村移民非农就业的收入冲击,因此可能会相互替代:土地为失业农村移民提供了返乡务农的选择,其功能类似"失业保险";高教育让农村移民更可能找到稳定的工作,减少其失业的可能。使用CHNS数据,本文发现土地对教育的替代作用在各个地区都存在。并且在土地效率增加或教育回报减少时,土地平滑收入冲击的效果相对教育的效果上升,土地对教育的替代效应也相应增大。
To migrant workers, both land and education can reduce their income shocks of non-agricultural employment. Land provides unemployed migrant workers with the choice of returning home, similar to the unemployment insurance, and higher educational attain- ments enable migrant workers to find more stable jobs, thus reducing the possibility of unem- ployment. Therefore land and education may substitute with each other. Using the CHNS da- ta, we find that the substitution effect of land to education exists in various regions, and is larger as land productivity increases or the return to education decreases.
