Review on the Current Status of Uneven Distribution of Education Resources in China and Its Influence on the Economic Development

Ever since the establishment of the People’s Republic of China, the country suffered from intense poverty and stubborn unbalanced resource distribution. The central government implemented various of different policies to cope with distinct historical phases, namely relief-type poverty relief, structural reform promoted poverty relief, development-oriented poverty relief, tackling key problems in poverty relief and targeted poverty alleviation respectively. On entering the TPA era, China implemented signature measurements including health, education, resettlement, traditional industrial support etc. to better solve the poverty problem from country level to the household level specifically. This paper provides an in-depth analysis towards the background of poverty alleviation as well as the measurements accordingly in order to better elaborate the situation, leading to the detailed analysis in the uneven distribution of educational resources. Gini coefficient as well as the statistics from the official websites present more academic perspectives to better explain the possible and potential influencing factors for the unbalanced distribution of educational resources, and the probable solutions will be discussed later with more details and data sets. Reasons of how the enhance of educational resources distribution structure could stimulate the local economy will be symmetrically studied in the latter session and relevant supporting policy suggestions would be provided in order to reach the goal.
