摘要
中国从20世纪80年代初开始严格实行被定为基本国策的计划生育制度,到2016年1月1日全面开放“二孩”政策,在这严格控制一对夫妻只许生育一个孩子的30余年里,中国因何出现了严重的性别失衡?高性别比对经济增长又具有何种作用?本文通过儒家文化对性别比作用的传递机制分析和对现实经验数据的实证检验,发现儒家文化影响下的“男孩偏好”拉高了性别比,而性别比的提高对经济增长率的提升具有显著的正向作用。
China began to strictly implement the“One Child”national policy of family planning in the early 1980s,and the“Two Children”policy was fully implemented since January 1st 2016.Here,why did China have experienced a serious gender imbalance under“one child policy”during more than 30 years?And what is the role played by high gender ratio in economic growth?This article analyzed the transfer mechanism of the Confucian culture to the sex ratio and we used the actual experience data to set empirical test.It is found that the“boy preference”phenomenon in the Confucian culture has increased the sex ratio,and the sex ratio has a significant positive effect on the economic growth rate.
