The Analysis Of Land Expropriation In The Major Development Zones And Changes Of Farmers’ Survival

Boarding on Hongshan District, Jiangxia District is the major part of the outer expansion of Wuhan central downtown. with the further development of urbanization in Wuhan city, lots of cultivated land in Jiangxia District will be occupied by construction and transportation land, thus intensifying the conflict between people and land. After the land expropriation, some farmers will shift to non-agricultural industries. However, due to the low cultural quality and labor skills, they are often at a disadvantage in the competition, with difficulty to find a good job, resulting deteriorating in survival conditions. Other part of farmers still stay on the land, but due to the shrinking arable land and destruction of survival resources, their future life becomes unsustainable. The survival problems of land-loss farmers involve land-loss farmers’long-term development, local economic development and social harmony and stability, which is the major concern in the society. It’s the land-lost farmers’deepest aspiration to solve this problem in scientific and reasonable way. It’s also an inevitable question on the road to the new rural reconstruction and urbanization. Centering on the analysis and researches in land expropriation and farmers’survival, this article mainly comprises five chapters as follows.The first chapter:introduction. In this section, we first discuss the research background and significance. On the basis of the review of related research literature, we determine the research content and method, and put forward the possible innovation of the thesis.The second chapter:summary of farmers’farming and land expropriation. In this section, we focus on understanding of farmers’farming, land contracting, agricultural income and land expropriation of farmers interviewed in Jiangxia District, which will lay a solid foundation for the deeper analysis of land expropriation’s influence upon farmers’ survival.The third chapter:the changes of farmers’ survival before and after land expropriation. In this section from the aspect of income level, income source and expenditure, working hours, agricultural production input, infrastructure and psychological condition, we will find out whether there exist some changes of farmers’ survival before and after land expropriation and how the changes evolve in order to objectively judge the influence of land expropriation upon survival.The fourth chapter:land expropriation’influence on farmers’survival:path and difference analysis. Starting from the difficulty between land expropriation for public interest and non-public interest, we explain the path where land expropriation for public interest and non-public interest affects farmers’ survival, based on which, we analyze the difference of land expropriation’s influence upon survival.Chapter5:conclusion and suggestion. In this section, based on the review of last four chapters, we get the main conclusion of this thesis, and make some suggestions.
