- Abstract:
- Based on the researches on the problem of discrepancies in the fund allocation between regions, the scholars at home and abroad have analyzed the status and impact of the rural financial inequality at the village level in China. According to the survey data of the administrative villages in the Chinese Resident Income Survey Database (2007), this paper attempted to study the impact of various factors on the discrepancies of the fund allocation at the village level in China and their contribution rate by adopting the Shapley value decomposition of regression equation. The results show that the rural financial inequality in rural China is very serious; per capita income levels, village governance differences and regional disparity have significant impacts on village financial resources; the contribution rate on the per capita income of famers to the rural financial inequality is the largest one, and it reaches 50.629%, followed by the regional disparity, accounting for 17.139%. And the contribution rate of village governance to village inequality is 8.575%, which is the third one among various determinants of village financial resources. The study suggests that the per capita income of farmers contributes a lot to the inequality of village financial resources. The key to improve the village financial resources lies in raising the level of residents’ income. Compared with the residents’ income in the eastern coastal areas, the increase of residents’ income in the central and western regions is faster. Policy support and transfer payments need to be strengthened. In particular, it helps to prevent poverty in rural areas in the central and western from getting into fiscal difficulties and narrows the financial gap between villages. In order to strive for more superior income to transfer payments and reduce the discrepancy of the allocation of fund financial at the village level, the governance function of village social capital should be developed adequately, and the external social capital of the village should be excavated.
