【摘要】 中国最大的问题是农民问题，农民最大的问题是收入问题。根据教育经济学的经典理论，教育是影响收入分配最重要的因素之一。在我国农村，教育是否在为农民生活的改善发挥作用?发挥着怎样的作用?如何才能发挥更大的作用?这些皆是本文所关注的实践问题。 教育与生产率之间的关系，是教育经济学的核心问题之一，而农业恰是考察教育与生产率之间关系的最佳领域。农民一般实行“自我雇佣”，农业实行家庭经营，不存在大规模的劳动力市场，因而也就不存在教育的“信号作用”和“社会化作用"。在农业中我们若是能够证明受过较高教育的农民确实有较高的收入，那么就可以断定教育对提高生产率有积极的作用。教育与生产率之间的关系，是本文所要探讨的理论问题。 为了考察以上的理论和实践问题，笔者利用在湖北省英山县支教一年的机会(2002年9月～2003年7月)，到英山县的农村做了大量的教育和经济调查。支教结束后，我又于2003年11月和2004年4月两次赴英山，对英山县教育和经济的最新进展情况作跟踪调查。这些调查构成了论文的基础。 文章分为五个部分。第一部分为导论部分。在导论部分中，笔者就文章所要研究的问题及基本概念做了界定，同时对研究意义、已有的研究和研究方法作了阐述。文章的第二部分以温泉镇马坳村为例，考察了传统农业中农民收入与教育之间的关系。得出的基本结论是，传统农业中农民收入与教育之间并不存在明显的关系。文章的第三部分以温泉镇的莲花村为例，考察了过渡农业中农民收入与教育之间的关系。过渡农业中，技术引进的早期对教育水平有较高的依赖，但随着新技术在一个地区逐渐普及，教育的作用在下降。文章的第四部分以草盘职业中学为例，探讨了职业教育与农民收入之间的关系。受制于农业风险和土地规模的影响，单纯的农业职业教育并不能有效地提高农民得自农业的收入。文章的第五部分对前面四个部分作了简单的总结和回顾。 本文以实地调查为基础，采用质的方法进行了研究。质的方法强调通过对个案的解剖来获得有关的社会信息。从英山个案的研究中，我们看到的不仅是篡硕士学位论文MASrfl艺I之’S‘I’川二515英山县本身的教育和经济问题，还可以看到湖北省的罗田县、安徽省的岳西县、霍山县、金寨县、太湖县等与英山县同属一个“类型”的国家级贫困县的教育和经济问题，我们甚至还可以看到在我国大部分农村地区都普遍存在的教育和经济问题。对这些问题进行更加深入的调查、研究和解释，将使教育经济学在改造社会中发挥更大的作用。更多还原

【Abstract】 The problems that concern the farmers rank among the most sesious issues in China, while how to raise the farmer’s income forms the most pressing questions concerning the farmers. According to the classical theory of economics of education, education is one of the most fundamental factors that can influence income. In the rural areas of China, does education play its due role in raising the farmer’s income? Is the role of education important? What reforms should we carry out to raise the importance of education? The questions above are what the paper will try to answer.The relationship between education and productivity is one of he key research points in economics of education. It has been verified that agriculture is the best field to study the relationship between education and productivity. The farmers are usually self-employed and the family forms a basic economic unity. Because the labor market does not exist in agriculture, the signaling role and socializing role do not exist accordingly. If we can prove that in agriculture the fanners with high education do have higher income, we can say with certainty that education pays positive role in productivity. The relationship between education and productivity is the theoretical question this paper will try to answer.To draw a fair conclusion above the practical and the theoretical questions, the authors took the opportunity of being a volunteer teacher in Yingshan, Hubei province from Sep, 2002 to July, 2003 and conducted a lot of investigation on education and economy in Yingshan. After the life of being a volunteer teacher, the author reached Yingshan two times, Nov, 2003 and Apr, 2004 respectively, for further investigation on the latest development of education and economy. The investigation forms the foundation of the paper.This paper consists of 5 parts. The first is the introduction. In the introduction to the paper, the author defines clearly the questions that will be studied and some important concepts. On the meanwhile, the study significance, the study result thathave already been achieved and the study method have been expounded. In the second part, the author takes Maao village, Wenquan (hot spripg) town as an example, analyzing the relationship between the farmer’s income arid the traditional agriculture. The conclusion is that there does not exist clear relationship between education and traditional agriculture. In the third part, the author takes Lianhua village, Wenquan town as an example, analyzing the relationship between education and the transitional agriculture. In the early days of technology introduction, the technology depends on, to some extent, the education. With the popularization of the new technology in the district, the role of education in technology introduction declines. The fourth part takes Caopan Vocational Middle School as an example, analyzing the relationship between vocational education and income distribution. Restricted by the agricultural risks and the lack of scale economy, the vocational education can not raise the farmer’s income efficiently. The conclusion of the whole paper and some illustrations are stated in the last part.This study is based on the on-spot-investigation and is conducted with qualitative method. The qualitative method puts high premiums to acquiring the relevant social information through case study. From the case study of YingShan, we can see the problems of education and economy not only in Yingshan, but also in Luotian, Hubei province and Yuexi, Huoshan, Jinzhai, Taihu, Anhui province. Because these counties, according to the theory of FeiXiaotong, are the same pattern. To some extent, we can also see some problems concerning education and economy that exist in whole china. If these questions receive more investigation and study, economics of education will plays greater role in reforming our society.更多还原
