Publisher Description
INTRODUCTION Since the implementation of reform and opening policy in China, China's economy has developed in all aspects. Due to the urban-rural dual structure of the economy, the gaps of urban-rural income, labor productivity, living standard, education and public service is widening, which contribute to the current unbalanced economy(Yan-ping, 2009). The urban-rural income gap of Guizhou province is larger than the national average level, and shows sign of widening. In 1978, the ratio of urban-rural income is 2.39:1, and 3.12:1 in 1982. Since 1983, the urban-rural income gap of Guizhou province widened and amounted to 4.06:1 in 1994. And since 1997, it continued widening and amounted to 4.5:1. The widening tendency should not be ignored(LuLu, Qindong, 2009).
