| In the socialized production, either as a driving force and source for the development of social production, the consumption is also the purpose and the end result of it. In promoting the economic growth, the effect of consumption is great and lasting. However, too much concerning on the growth rate in the economic development model, our consumption rate especially resident consumption rate is seriously low. The consumption gap is greatly widened in urban and rural areas,among other different areas and among different income groups.It seriously impedes the consumption growth and its contribution to the economic and social development of our country. Affected by the global financial crisis, the export has shrinked greatly. The investment contribution to the economy has been maximized. The long time economic development pattern has changed. In this context,to fully tap the consumption's potential to promote the economic growth, to maintain a sustained, rapid and healthy growth of the economy, surveying and studying the consumption problems of our country, analyzing and grasping its development trend is significant.Consumption theory has a long history. There are many works about consumption in different perspectives.In view of the resident consumption'principal position in the social consumption, the thesis concerns on resident consumption, especially the urban resident consumption. It mainly concerns on quantitative analysis of resident consumption structure. Based on the thesis'analysis,we find our consumption structure of urban and rural residents has reached an overall well-off and gradually shifts to the more well-off stage. However, some issues are outstanding, for example, resident consumption'proportion in the society is low, the consumption gap between urban and rural areas,between regions,between different income groups is large.In this context, the thesis uses the approach of structural analysis and the extended linear expenditure system (ELES) model to analyze the overall changes trend in consumption structure,and finds that the trend is transiting from basic survival consumption to enjoyment and development consumption.Changes in consumption structure is gradually notable.The contribution of the enjoyment and development consumption in consumption structure is increasing.The trend of the consumption structure is diversifying and upgrading. The consumption of transportation and communication,education culture and entertainment services gradually becomes the potential consuming focus.The thesis classifies the internal consumption structure by food clothing housing and so on.It finds that the food is more nutritious and healthy. The clothing consumption is individuation and diversification.The housing demand is increasing, but its problem is serious.The durable goods'quality is higher. Private car is becoming a hot spot of social consumption.The proportion of service will rise, such as health care, education and culture,electronic information service.By establishing the standards and criteria of rationalization of the consumption,the thesis analyzes the rationalization of consumption structure and investigates how to optimize the consumption structure.Finally, the thesis evolves the study of the text and puts forward research prospects of the corresponding theory. |
