Sociological Research On The Intergeneration Transmission Of Poverty Concentrated Areas With Difficulties

Since the Reform and Opening up, Chinese people made comprehensive progress in our national poverty alleviation.Survival and subsistence problems has been basically solved in poverty-stricken areas. Production, living conditions and infrastructure construction in poor areas significantly improved. The social economic development level also had a further increase. However, with the thorough promoting in poverty reduction, concentrated areas with special difficulties would become emphasis and difficulties of poverty-relief in future because of the limitation of several reasons such as poor geographic location, hysteretic basic public service and weaker self-achievement ability.Compared with the generation difference between two generation of migrant workers, we can divide poor people into two categories. It can be called the old generation of poor peasant households and new generation of poor peasant households. We can analysis the diversity of the social economic characteristic, demographic features, social role cognition and political-social participation behavior. On this base we can explore the deep rooted consequence of high re-poverty stricken rate and difficulty in getting rid of it.From the respective of intergenerational difference in social and economic characteristic, major income resource of the old poor farmers are mainly coming from farming and working wages. And consumption and saving is much more traditional and conservative. However, working income is the only income resource for the new generation. Meanwhile, their consumption tends to be more fashioned and diversified. When impulsive spending and excessive consumption phenomenon appears, weak saving consciousness and a small amount of deposit is not enough to resist the unknowable risk in the future.Seeing from self-cognition of social status and attribution preference about gap between rich and poor, unlike parents’ pastoral ideal which works in the city and goes back to country, the motivation that become citizens through their own efforts for the new generation is more clear. On the cognition and attribution preference about gap between rich and poor, the reaction of new generation is getting more intense. Most of them insist that the formation and maintenance of poverty situation is results strengthened by unreasonable policy arrangement and inherent poverty environment.The first sight of intergenerational difference between political participation and social interaction, regardless of political participation in the village or in the social activities, the new generation are both at a disadvantage position. And nonparticipation and indifference to village affairs is the most prominent performance. At the same time, secret and injustice grass-roots election and resource utilization for poverty reduction frequently makes farmer participation become a mere formality or slogan. What makes matter worse, it is ultimately bad for the new generation shaking off poverty.Through variation analysis of poverty factors between two generations in X village, the article argues that the generation difference is remarkable since the implement of poverty alleviation in the new era. Only when the new generations have rational cognition for their own social position and gap between rich and poor, capability of the new poverty generation can have further improvement on this basis. The last but also the most important, it is important way to prevent intergenerational transmission in concentrated areas with difficulties...
