Inequality in China – Trends, Drivers and Policy Remedies (2018, background): “Contributing to this inequality was low educational attainment and low returns to education in rural areas, with the hukou system constraining rural-urban migration and thereby exacerbating these effects (Liu, 2005; Dollar, 2007).”
Identity, Inequality, and Happiness: Evidence from Urban China (2012, background): “Regarding the fundamental role of the hukou system in the socioeconomic segmentation in China, see Liu (2005), Wang (2004), Wu and Treiman (2007), and Chan (2009).”
Finance and Growth for Microenterprises: Evidence from Rural China (2015, unknown): “Liu (2005) shows that the Hukou registration (registered as urban / rural citizens) is related with the career choice, i.e. rural citizens are less likely to work in the state sector jobs, and more likely to be self-employed.”
When are Cities Engines of Growth in China? Spread and Backwash Effects across the Urban Hierarchy (2013, background): “For a discussion of how the life cycle of industries and the industry composition of cities affect the role of agglomeration economies and technological change, see NEFFKE et al. (2011). For a survey of the underlying causes of agglomeration economies, see PUGA (2010).”
Educational Inequality under China's Rural–Urban Divide: The Hukou System and Return to Education (2010, methodology): “Hence, rural-origin people not only suffer from fewer years of schooling compared with their urban peers (Fan, 2001; Liu, 2005), but also receive an inferior compulsory education.”
The effect of parental labor migration on children’s educational progress in rural china (2011, background): “A 2003 directive by the State Council requiring local governments to provide state school education to all children may have inadvertently limited schooling alternatives, as authorities closed some unlicensed private schools that provided services to migrants ( Goodburn 2009 ).”
Agricultural productivity, structural change, and economic growth in post-reform China (2013, unknown): “Liu (2005) examined paired urban and rural communities in Beijing and showed that an urban hukou raises a person's income by about 26%.”
