Abstract

ABSTRACT Rural–urban migration is considered one of the main reasons for rural decline, but the links between out-migration and rural settlement change are not well understood. This study explores the microimpact of out-migration on rural livelihoods and housing strategies in Southwest China. It is based on the results of a survey with 411 respondents. A cluster analysis revealed five distinct types of rural households considering their ways of migration and livelihoods. Only one of them depends on agriculture, whereas the others are characterized by different kinds of migration and off-farm activities. This study provides in-depth insights into the microimpact, thus informing future rural development policy.

西南地区外迁、农村生计与住房

摘要城乡人口迁移被认为是农村人口减少的主要原因之一，但人们对农村人口外迁与农村定居变化之间的关系却知之甚少。本研究探讨了外迁对西南地区农村生计和住房策略的微观影响。这是根据对411名受访者的调查结果得出的。聚类分析揭示了五种不同类型的农村家庭，考虑到他们的迁移和生计方式。其中只有一种依赖农业，而其他的则以不同类型的迁移和非农活动为特征。本研究提供了对微观影响的深入见解，从而为未来的农村发展政策提供信息。
