Economic analysis on the movement of population and income distribution in growing India: are there any changes in social stratification

本研究通过分析国家抽样调查组织(NSSO)提供的家庭数据，重点研究了当前来自农村地区的州内移民的变化，以及经济和社会阶层对农村家庭的后续汇款的影响，特别是对增长期间的种姓(SCs)的影响。1993年，从外迁移民到印度境内接受汇款的家庭的平均人均消费支出水平远低于非移民家庭。相反，在2007-08年印度经济有史以来最高增长率的时候，有证据表明，外迁移民的汇款改善了较贫穷家庭的经济状况，因为在全印度社会阶层中，外迁移民家庭的MPCE水平显著高于非外迁家庭，但值得注意的是，在经济最不发达的比哈尔邦，受歧视的达利特人。可以得出的结论是，在社会倒退的情况下向外移徙后增加汇款，可能是赋予受歧视穷人权力的一种手段。

This study focuses on the current changes of intra-state migration from rural areas and the impact of following remittances to rural households by economic and social strata, particularly focusing on SCs (Scheduled Castes), during the growth period, by analyzing household data provided by National Sample Survey Organization (NSSO). In the 1993, the average per capita consumption expenditure (MPCE) levels of households which receive remittances from out-migrant to within India were much lower than non-migrant households. Conversely, in 2007-08, at the point of highest growth on Indian economy ever, there has been the evidence that remittances by out-migrants improved economic conditions of poorer households, since the levels of MPCE of out-migrant households with remittances are significantly higher than those of non-out-migrant households for all-India social classes, but notably for the discriminated Dalits in Bihar, the least economically developed state. It could be concluded that increased remittances following out-migration by social backwards could be a means of possible empowerment for the discriminated poor.
