Research On The Impact Of The Supply Of Basic Public Services On Relative Poverty In China Under The Background Of Common Prosperity

By the end of 2020,China have accomplished the job of defeating absolute poverty,but the pace of tackling poverty will not stop there.Relative poverty will be the next "main battlefield" of poverty governance,and also the "main obstacle" that China needs to overcome in its journey to common prosperity.The provision of basic public services can effectively alleviate absolute poverty.Whether the basic public services can play a more important role and assume greater responsibilities in establishing a long-term mechanism to solve relative poverty.At theoretical level,this paper explores the mechanism.At the empirical level,this paper first uses FGT indicators and entropy method to measure and analyze the relative poverty level(including poverty breadth,depth and intensity)and the basic public services provision.Secondly,according to the relevant measurement data,the paper explores the impact of the supply of basic public services on the breadth,depth and intensity of relative poverty.The paper found that Chinese relative poverty is serious,with rural areas far higher than urban areas.The supply of basic public services has gradually increased in recent years.However,there is still much to be desired,and there is a big gap among provinces.At the same time,research suggests the basic public service supply can effectively slow down the relative poverty.First,the basic public service supply can effectively reduce relative poverty breadth,depth,but the impact is gradually weakened,and the impact on the intensity of relative poverty is not obvious.Second,the basic public service supply can effectively reduce the rural relative poverty,but no significant influence on the relative poverty in cities and towns.Third,points area,the basic public service supply to ease the largest relative poverty effect in central and eastern western times,minimum.Fourth,dimensions,basic education and health care slow the effects of relative poverty is best.Fifth,the robustness test and endogeneity analysis verified the robustness of the conclusion in this paper.Policy recommendations are as follows: First,the governance of relative poverty should be regarded as an important link to promote common prosperity,and the two should be integrated and promoted together.Second,we will optimize the basic public services.We should provide basic public services in different areas and with specific emphasis.Third,we should link the treatment of relative poverty with the supply of basic public services,and clarify the function solving the problem of relative poverty in the supply of basic public services.we also should combine basic public service supply with economic and social development and income distribution system,so as to promote common prosperity.
