为了成功安置127万三峡工程移民,中国政府实施了新的移民安置政策,强调安置点的基础设施建设,以确保移民在安置后的可持续生计。不幸的是,该政策承诺的许多好处并没有实现。因此,许多重新安置者因未能实现期望而遭受抑郁症状的增加。利用三峡移民搬迁前后的面板数据,我们发现有很高比例的移民报告未达到预期,这与抑郁症状的增加显著相关。我们的研究结果表明,无法兑现的承诺可能适得其反,并进一步加剧由项目引起的流离失所对流离失所者造成的伤害。从重新安置者的角度来看,一个合理的应对策略是做最坏的打算,以尽量减少流离失所对他们心理健康造成的伤害。
To successfully resettle 1.27 million Chinese for the construction of the Three Gorges Project (TGP), the Chinese government employed a new re-resettlement policy which emphasizes infrastructural development of the resettlement sites to assure resettlers a sustainable livelihood following resettlement. Unfortunately, many benefits the policy promised have not materialized. As a result, many resettlers have suffered an increase in depressive symptoms associated with unmet expectations. Using panel data collected before and after relocation from a sample of Three Gorges resettlers, we found that a high proportion of resettlers reported unmet expectations which were significantly associated with an increase in depressive symptoms. Our findings indicate that undeliverable promises can backfire and further aggravate the harm inflicted on the displaced caused by the project-induced displacement. From the perspective of resettlers, a sound coping strategy to minimize the harm caused by the displacement on their mental wellbeing is to expect for the worst.
