Cost Calculation for Citizenization of Rural Migrant Workers under the Local and Nearby Urbanization Background——Comparison among Three Cities in Henan Province

Abstract

Abstract:

Based on a survey in the context of local and nearby urbanization, this paper adjusts the cost calculation index system for granting urban residency to rural migrant workers and optimizes the corresponding calculation model. In three small and medium size cities at various development levels in Henan province, the annual total costs of citizenization of rural migrant workers are calculated at 41,000 Yuan, 55,300 Yuan and 63,100 Yuan, which is estimated based on the data from the yearbooks and public reports by the method of parallel closing process and classification of cost calculation. The results show that:Compared with the traditional off-site urbanization, the local and nearby urbanization leads to a lower cost of citizenization, stronger externality, and significant change in cost sharing among the government, enterprises and individuals. The total cost decreases as a city's development level increases. The government is not only the main promoter of citizenization of rural migrant workers, but also the cost undertaker. Lack of infrastructure input is the main problem of the undeveloped regions while the higher input in livelihood is the key of citizenization in the developed regions. The cost for farmers' abandoning their lands has become higher, but the human capital of rural migrant workers has been improved through citizenization, which has relieved various issues caused by loss of land and rural hukou.

Key words: rural migrant worker, citizenization, cost calculation, local and nearby urbanization
