本文分析了中国三峡大坝淹没地区两个村庄的移民安置对农户的影响。本文还提出了一个政治经济框架，以了解移民计划及其对家庭的影响。这些家庭为移民带来了各种资源——土地、储蓄、劳动力、社会关系和公共资源——这些资源在移民安置过程中逐渐减少。除了大量借贷（主要是为了资助新住房的重大投资）之外，家庭的反应往往反映了重新安置对他们施加的限制，而不是他们利用新机会的能力。结果，移民后农民收入下降，特别是在失去更多土地的村庄。农业收入的损失并不能通过有偿工作或自营职业增加的非农收入来弥补。因此，这两个村的家庭比搬迁前更容易受到进一步外部冲击的影响。
This article analyses the effects of resettlement on farming households in two villages within the area inundated by the Three Gorges Dam, China. The article also proposes a political-economic framework within which to understand the resettlement program and its implications for households. The households brought a variety of resources into the resettlement—land, savings, their labor, social ties, and communal resources—resources that became less during the resettlement process. Apart from extensive borrowing, largely to fund a major investment in new housing, the households’ responses tended to reflect constraints imposed on them by the resettlement rather than their ability to exploit new opportunities. As a consequence, farm incomes fell after resettlement, particularly in the village where more land was lost. The loss of farm income was not made up by increased off-farm income through paid work or self-employment. The households in the two villages have thus become more vulnerable to further external shocks than they were before the resettlement.
