Summary/Abstract |
Despite the fact that urban hukou is understood to be far superior to
rural hukou and that rural migrants have strong intention to stay in
cities for many years, responses to hukou reforms that increase opportunities
to obtain urban hukou have been less than enthusiastic. This
article addresses this puzzle by showing how the respective values of
rural hukou and urban hukou have changed in recent decades. The
access and benets that are tied to rural hukou—including farming and
housing land, compensation for land requisition, and more relaxed birth
control—are considered increasingly valuable. us, many migrants are
opting to straddle and circulate between the city and countryside rather
than giving up their rural hukou.

Summary/Abstract |
China’s recent development of a modern legal system coupled with
unparalleled economic growth have drawn substantial attention from
commercial law scholars. This review summarizes Chinese- and
English-language commercial law academic literature from the past
decade contributed by both Chinese and non-Chinese scholars while
discussing their dierences. China’s use of vague laws that rely upon
implementation rules resulted in a substantial proportion of articles
focusing on policy discussions and comparison to foreign approaches.
Subsequently, a common theme in both Chinese and English literature
was transplantation of foreign law.

Summary/Abstract |
is article studies the relationship between social and spatial mobility
of new urban migrants and residents. e objective is to present the
inuences of the household registration system on the social mobility of
China’s new urban migrants through a comparison of the dierences
and similarities between these two groups. Two data sets are adopted in
this article: the Blue Book of Youth Nos. 1 and 2 and in-depth interviews
conducted during the summers of 2009, 2010, and 2011.
ematic analysis was employed to understand their social mobility
aer spatial mobility. Results show that new urban migrants are relatively
vulnerable. While society generally expects them to assimilate
rather than achieve upward social mobility, the hukou system limits
their access to social welfare and security. Meanwhile, new urban residents
who have access to advantages consider themselves lower-middle
class in terms of consumption, and maintain certain flexibility to
further establish their social and economic status. In this article,
“opportunity” is a significant theme. New urban residents strive to
leverage their urban resident status to create individual wealth.

Summary/Abstract |
Through questionnaire investigation and factor analysis, this article
explores the status of social integration of migrants in Shanghai’s urban
villages. e results show that social integration of migrants can be
mapped on four dimensions: social relation integration, economic integration,
psychological integration, and cultural integration. According
to the factor scores, the overall level of social integration of migrants is
not high, and economic integration is the lowest. Furthermore, the
results of multiple linear regression analysis show that, on the whole,
the destination place factors of migrants exert more inuence on social
integration in urban villages than the individual factors. Individual
factors play the most important roles in determining the status of
psychological integration,

Summary/Abstract |
China has experienced an unprecedented surge of rural to urban migration
since the mid-1980s, which has led to rapid growth of the urban
population, especially in major cities. This study investigates urban
settlement intentions of 4,116 rural residents using data from the
Chinese General Social Survey in 2010. Based on a multilevel logistic
model, the study focuses on the role of individual, household, and
contextual factors in determining urban settlement intentions of rural
residents. It was found that more than 90 percent of villagers in the
survey do not intend to move to and settle in a city within the next ve
years. Among those who have some intention to settle in a city, nearly
two-thirds plan to settle in small towns or small cities rather than larger
cities. e results show that villagers’ urban settlement intentions are
shaped, both independently and interactively, by individual, household,
and contextual factors.
