【摘要】 本文提出利用中国的《统计年鉴》发布的收入分配分组数据估计基尼系数的方法,并对中国中部六省的基尼系数进行了估算。计算结果表明,中部六省农村与城镇内部的基尼系数都不大,但城乡加总的基尼系数都很大,这说明决定各省乃至整个中部地区收入不平等程度的关键因素是城乡收入差距。目前正在实施中部崛起战略,中部地区正面临经济快速发展的机遇,但目前该地区的收入不平等已经有了较高的起点,因此该问题的动向应引起有关决策部门的关注。更多还原

【Abstract】 This article estimates Gini coefficients in six provinces in Central China, using the grouped income distribution data published in the China Statistical Year Book. Results of the calculations show that the internal Gini coefficients for rural and urban areas taken separately are not high for any of the provinces, but the combined total rural-urban Gini coefficient is high for each province. In other words, the key factor in income inequality in each province and in Central China as a whole is the rural-urban income gap. With the current strategy of raising Central China, this region has an opportunity for rapid economic growth. However, at present income inequality in the region starts from a high base. These problematic tendencies merit the attention of the relevant policy-making departments.更多还原
