本文试图根据跨越近四分之一个世纪的长期面板数据,确定菲律宾农村地区几代人摆脱贫困的途径。具体地说,它按顺序考察了相同个人的受教育程度、随后的职业选择和目前的非农收入的决定因素。我们发现,土地改革和绿色革命等带来的父母收入的最初增加,改善了儿童的教育,这后来使他们能够获得有报酬的非农工作。这些结果表明,增加农业收入、通过教育提高人力资本和发展非农部门是长期减贫的关键。还必须指出,农村非农部门最近的发展为受教育程度较低的人提供了充足的就业机会,这也大大促进了减贫。
This paper attempts to identify a pathway out of poverty over generations in the rural Philippines, based on long-term panel data spanning for nearly a quarter of a century. Specifically, it sequentially examines the determinants of schooling, subsequent occupational choices, and current non-farm earnings for the same individuals. We found that an initial rise in parental income, brought about by the land reform and the Green Revolution, among other things, improves the schooling of children, which later allows them to obtain remunerative non-farm jobs. These results suggest that the increased agricultural income, improved human capital through schooling and the development of non-farm sectors are the keys to reducing poverty in the long run. It must be also pointed out that the recent development of the rural non-farm sector offers ample employment opportunities for the less educated, which also significantly contributed to the poverty reduction.
