The Influence Of Resource Endowment On Citizenization Of Migrant Workers

China’s agricultural modernization has promoted the process of citizenization of agricultural surplus labor force,effectively promoting the citizenization of agricultural transfer population is an important goal during the "14th Five Year Plan" period in China,and is also a focus issue discussed by academic and political circles in recent years.As an important component of the agricultural transfer population,migrant workers are the key to cracking down on the new urbanization.Currently,the degree of differentiation of migrant workers in China is relatively obvious,with significant differences in areas of mobility,employment choices,and rural-urban trade-offs.These differences are concentrated in differences in willingness to settle in cities.The pressure on population growth and decline has differentiated among cities of different sizes,levels,and endowments.As a major agricultural province,Jilin Province has benefited from the superior natural endowment conditions that have formed the basic conditions conducive to agricultural development.The agricultural population accounts for a large proportion of the total population of the province,and the rural labor force has formed a strong love affair with the soil,so the impetus to promote the rural labor force to go out to work is relatively weak;At the same time,the overall economic development level of Jilin Province is not strong enough to attract labor outside the province.In recent years,there has been a growing trend for migrant workers to be mainly mobile and part-time workers within the province,but their overall willingness to settle down is relatively low.Therefore,in order to further promote the new urbanization process in Jilin Province,it is necessary to pay attention to the issue of migrant workers’ urbanization.This article analyzes the overall situation and micro personal characteristics of migrant workers in Jilin Province in recent years with the help of relevant macro statistical data and micro survey data.Logistic model is used to conduct empirical analysis using micro questionnaire data to analyze the impact of migrant workers’ resource endowment conditions on their willingness to settle down.Secondly,using the propensity score matching model,this paper analyzes the mechanism of the objective differences between migrant workers’ income and generation on the individual heterogeneity characteristics of migrant workers,and proposes specific and feasible policy recommendations based on the provincial situation.The conclusions of this study are as follows:(1)Resource endowment has an important impact on the willingness of migrant workers to settle down.Specifically,the educational factors in human capital endowment are positively correlated with migrant workers’ willingness to settle down in cities and towns.The higher the level of education migrant workers receive,the stronger their willingness to settle down;The difficulty of obtaining education and medical treatment in social capital endowments is also closely related to the willingness of migrant workers to settle down in cities and towns.The easier it is for migrant workers to solve the problem of access to education and medical treatment,the stronger their willingness to settle down in cities and towns;The cultivated land factor in natural capital endowment is negatively correlated with the willingness of migrant workers to become citizens.The less cultivated land farmers contract,the stronger their willingness to settle down in cities and towns.(2)In the economic resource endowment,the wage income factor of migrant workers is negatively correlated with their willingness to settle down in cities and towns,and the objective capital endowment difference formed under the urban-rural dual structure does not have a significant impact on their willingness to become citizens.In addition,the economic resource endowment is also reflected in the gap in the welfare benefits between migrant workers and urban workers.Generally,farmers’ trade unions fill this gap through working hours,but this economic gap does not enhance the willingness of migrant workers to settle in cities and towns.(3)The study found that there is an income inflection point when migrant workers settle down.Before the inflection point,the higher the wage income level of migrant workers,the less willing they are to settle down.However,after the inflection point,the higher the wage income of migrant workers,the stronger their willingness to settle down.This study concludes that when migrant workers’ wage income is at the middle and upper levels,their income is sufficient to cover the cost of settling down,while migrant workers at the bottom of the income level will face higher costs,and they still maintain a strong rural complex towards rural areas.(4)Compared with the new generation of migrant workers,land income has a significant impact on the willingness of the older generation of migrant workers to settle in cities and towns.Although the older generation of migrant workers can obtain higher wage income,they still persist in retaining rural hukou,maintaining long-term mobility and a "semi urbanization" state between rural and urban areas.This phenomenon depends on the rural complex of the older generation of migrant workers,and their lifestyle is difficult to truly integrate into the city.
