Since the beginning of new century, voluntary rural-urban migration and peasants'citizenization gradually becomes the phenomon of Chinese economic development in new period.Rural person is not only the main body of voluntary rural-urban migration and peasants'citizenization but also the main body and core of urbanization, who play a dominant and motile role. Chinese urbanization also demands rural person change into citen. Hence, voluntary rural–urban migration typed peasants'citizenization is presented.Voluntary rural-urban migration typed peasants'citizenization has some merits that rural interior citizenization has not, which can solve well dual economic problems in China. During the process of it, rural person turn into urban person, is harmony with urban life and construct city, result in improvement of urban areas.It is assumed that rural persons are rational. Rural persons are affected by five economic forces. According to theoretical analysis, agricultural fiscal policy and unsteady income all influence migration decision of rural persons.Peasants in rural areas tradeoff farm work and non-farm work,in the urban areas they tradeoff rural work and urban work. Urban peasants experienced ten migration costs and potential returnees should tradeoff surplus money and rural expected income. Main body of voluntary rural-urban migration can be categorized with, voluntary migration peasants and land-lost peasants. As far as the former, conditions of migration in"seasonal alone","permanent alone"and"permanent with the family", though comparing life cost with separation cost, are concluded. As far as the latter, at the beginning of suburbanization, lost-land peasants have no chance of working there and are forced to commute to CBD for job. If urban planner attaches importance to the benefits of lost-land peasants, lost-land peasants commute CBD for job which will lead to relationship between growth rate of urban public goods and commuting Engel coefficient in dynamic monocentric model. The analysis finds that there is an optimal growth path without or with transportation technology improvement.Considering income growth rate of the two type peasants; relationship between voluntary rural-urban migration and optimal urban growth path is studied with Ramsey's growth model. Some intuitive results are concluded that peasants'consumption after urbanization is not their optimal consumption but governmental result.And governmental purchase does not affect economic balance growth path.Complete citizen realization of rural person should experience status realization, thought realization, skill realization and zone realization. Voluntary rural-urban migration theories and citizen theories are constructed and corresponding conclusions are concluded with economic theories. Voluntary rural–urban migration typed peasants'skill citizenization is the process that peasants under the economic restraints make training decision and voluntary rural-urban migration. According to whether having skill city-needed or not, whether accepting skill city-needed or not and whether entering city for urban job after training or not, the rural labors can classified into ten kinds. Effects of voluntary rural–urban migration typed peasants'skill civilization on urban economic structure are inconspicuous in the short run; its effects depend on goods price and labors'wages; there is optimal migration population. Voluntary rural–urban migration typed peasants'thought citizenization is the process that urban peasants affiliate with urban residents,identify with urban ideologies and assimilate with urban persons.Successful voluntary rural–urban migration typed peasants'thought citizenization process contains:urban citizens exclude & urban peasants collide,urban citizens detest &urban peasants ingratiate,urban citizens express amity& urban peasants keep away,urban citizens and urban peasants become friends, in the end they become bosom friends. But, limited by special character, experience and working environment of urban peasants, some of them will never have relationship with urban citizens. Voluntary rural–urban migration typed peasants'status citizenization is the process that urban government set down hukou admittance policy in light of growth rate of private goods,"free-rider"public goods and hukou goods. Based on endogenous growth theory, the functional relationship between the affordable growth rate of voluntary rural-urban migration and the growth rate of private goods, the functional relationship between the affordable growth rate of voluntary rural-urban migration and the functional relationship between the growth rate of"free-rider"public, goods and the growth rate of hukou admittance and the growth rate of public goods are concluded. Hence, high urban economic growth rate is the perquisite of keeping high rate of voluntary rural-urban migration and hukou admittance. Voluntary rural–urban migration typed peasants'regional citizenization is the process that peasnts migrates from low rank city to medium rank city and then high rank city. Merchandise and human capital flow from low rank city to high rank city, in turn, production and consumption transfer spatially, there is difference of consumption variety in rank cities. Voluntary rural–urban migration typed peasants'regional citizenization is beneficial and feasible. Transportation cost and substitute elasticity of goods influence voluntary rural–urban migration typed peasants'regional citizenization. Finally, some suggestions are proposed.
