| Research Abstract |
The analysis of land use policy effects on urbanization process : within a framework an NEG model it was intended to show that urbanization rate is determined as a synthetic result of rational behavior of each socio-economic agent. In particular, a model is constructed with bearing in mind to explain the urbanization process in China such that the role of government in managing land use is explicitly incorporated and policy effects can be evaluated. Major conclusions are as follows. 1.The policy variables affecting urbanization rate are the ratio of residential land area between rural and urban districts and the ratio of public stock for living between the two district the urbanization decreases with both of them. Concerning transport cost effect, a decrease in the transport cost of manufacturing good will lower the urbanization rate. On the other hand, lower transport cost of agricultural product will promote urbanization. 2.An increase in low-skill labor will increase output and thus increases utility level. On the other hand, increased population will reduce per capita residential lot size and thereby lower the utility level. This implies that an optimal population size exists.
The analysis of an extended Harris-Todaro model : Developing an extended model of the basic Harris-Todaro model of rural -urban migration, we analyzed the effects of infrastructure availability together with time -tested income effects while accommodating government behavior through the provision and financing infrastructure. Our theoretical analysis confirms that infrastructure presence can be a significant factor in making migration decisions. Comparison with the basic Harris-Todaro model also revels that the Todaro paradox is absent in the basic model, it can be present in the extended model.
