Hukou system, rural institutions, and migrant integration in China / Tyner, Adam ; Ren, Yuan   Journal Article
Adam Tyner and Yuan Ren Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article presents evidence that factors in rural areas influence migrant integration into China's cities. We argue that the value of the rural registration influences migrants' decision-making and identities by creating a cost to registration transfer to the city, and that the rural land system interacts with the household registration system to inhibit migrant integration. We test novel hypotheses derived from a simple model of migrant integration, finding connections between rural sending area factors and migrant integration in the city. We test these hypotheses using survey data from two surveys of rural-to-urban migrant workers and publicly available economic data. We find that migrants from areas with higher levels of economic development are less likely to desire registration transfer to the city. We also find that landholding and weaker rural and rights are associated with lower levels of social integration in the city.

Queering migrant integration in contemporary China: a multi-dimensional analysis of Chinese migrant young gay men’s urban integration / Luo, Muyuan   Journal Article
Luo, Muyuan Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article addresses the sexual gap in Chinese migration studies with a multi-dimensional analysis of Chinese migrant young gay men’s urban integration. Based on life history interviews, conducted in Shenzhen, a migrant metropolis in South China, this research examines how this migrant-friendly city offers these migrant young gay men possibilities and at the same time, limits their urban integration by taking economic, social relation and identity issues into account. The author concludes this article with a discussion on sexuality’s constitutive role in shaping the complicated dynamics of Chinese migrant young gay men’s urban integration.
