Abstract

The Chinese Government has proposed the strategy of “targeted poverty alleviation” in its poverty reduction project among the poverty‐stricken population while carrying out a forward‐looking preparation for “rural vitalization.” As is known, the “targeted poverty alleviation” serves the prerequisite of realizing the “rural revitalization strategy.” Poverty alleviation through education plays the role of interdicting intergenerational poverty. Vocational education ranks for the highest input–output ratio, accounting for the best way for profit accumulation in poverty alleviation. Based upon the investigation of 1280 poor households in poverty‐stricken regions of Longsheng County and Ziyuan County in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, this paper introduces the long‐term effect of poverty alleviation through vocational education by comparing the gap of the educational level and income between the poverty‐stricken population and the population out of poverty with an analysis on the income structure of the poor. We recommend measures and suggestions for constructing a system of poverty reduction that is oriented towards rural vocational education, based on poor households' demand for vocational education and training. 中国政府提出“精准扶贫”战略作为其针对贫困人口扶贫计划的一部分,同时为“乡村振兴”作前瞻性准备。众所周知,“精准扶贫”是实现“乡村振兴战略”的先决条件。此外,通过教育扶贫往往能阻碍代际间贫困。职业教育在输入‐输出比值中排名第一,它组成了扶贫过程中利润积累的最佳模式。基于一项关于广西壮族自治区龙胜县和资源县贫困地区1280户贫困家庭的调查,本文阐述了职业教育扶贫的长期效果。为此,识别了贫困人口和脱贫人口在平均教育程度和收入之间存在的差异。特别分析了贫困人口的收入结构,并根据贫困家庭对职业教育和培训的需求,就如何最好地建构乡村职业教育扶贫系统提供了措施和建议。 El gobierno chino ha propuesto una estrategia de "alivio selectivo de la pobreza" como un componente de su proyecto de reducción de la pobreza entre la población afectada por la pobreza, mientras que al mismo tiempo lleva a cabo preparativos con visión de futuro para la "vitalización rural". Como se conoce comúnmente, la "mitigación selectiva de la pobreza" tiene la ventaja de realizar una "estrategia de revitalización rural". Es más, el alivio de la pobreza a través de la educación tiende a prohibir la pobreza intergeneracional. La educación vocacional ocupa el lugar más alto entre las relaciones insumo‐producto, y constituye el mejor modo de acumulación de ganancias en el alivio de la pobreza. Basado en la investigación de 1.280 hogares pobres en las regiones afectadas por la pobreza del condado de Longsheng y el condado de Ziyuan en la región autónoma de Guangxi Zhuang, el documento explica los efectos a largo plazo del alivio de la pobreza a través de la educación vocacional. Lo hace identificando la disparidad que existe entre los niveles educativos medios y los ingresos de la población golpeada por la pobreza y la población que sale de la pobreza. Se hace un análisis especial de la estructura de ingresos de los indigentes, lo que arroja medidas y sugerencias sobre la mejor manera de construir el sistema de reducción de la pobreza en relación con la educación vocacional rural, de acuerdo con la demanda de educación y capacitación vocacional de los hogares pobres.
