Hukou as benefits: Demand for hukou and wages in China
户口作为福利:中国对户口和工资的需求
Abstract
As China encourages urbanisation, a necessary process is the urbanisation of its people, granting local-urban hukou, or local citizenship, to migrant populations. But reforms encouraging urbanisation are dependent on migrant populations wanting to become formal, registered urban residents. What is the demand for hukou? Based on a unique probabilistically-sampled contingent valuation survey of over 900 migrants in Beijing and Changsha, we use migrants’ willingness-to-pay for hukou as a measure of demand for urbanisation. We find that migrants in Beijing are willing to give up between 9% and 14% of their income over five years to gain local-urban hukou. Migrants in Changsha are much less willing to pay for hukou with a willingness-to-pay indistinguishable from zero, and rural migrants have a negative willingness-to-pay. This study contributes to the broader literature on the impact of China’s hukou system by providing a unique test of migrant workers’ willingness-to-pay for local citizenship.

Order and openness in community-driven urban initiatives: Insights from a ‘spot-fix’
社区驱动的城市倡议中的秩序和开放性:来自“现场修复”的见解
Abstract
This study examines how community-driven urban do-it-yourself initiatives maintain appropriate levels of openness while ensuring sufficient degrees of social order. For this, a specific event is analysed using an analytic framework that differentiates decided and emergent orders. The results indicate how various aspects of the event feature combinations of these orders that serve to sustain it and produce desired outcomes. These combinations indicate certain key factors that facilitate the balance of order and openness in community-driven initiatives. The paper concludes with reflections on the practical implications.
摘要
本研究探讨社区驱动的城市“自己动手”倡议如何在确保充分的社会秩序的同时保持适当的开放水平。为此,我们使用一个区分人为决定秩序与自发秩序的分析框架来分析一个特定活动。结果表明,活动的各个方面体现了这些秩序的不同组合,这些秩序旨在维持该活动并产生预期的结果。这些组合表明某些关键因素有助于在社区驱动的倡议中促进秩序和开放性的平衡。本文最后对实际应用进行了反思。

From global city makers to global city-shapers: Migration industries in the global city networks
从全球城市缔造者到全球城市塑造者:全球城市网络中的移民产业
Abstract
Recently, increasing migrant-led diversity of urban spaces can be expected to be especially observed in global cities, where global flows of capital, goods and people are concentrated. Although this connection between the global phenomenon of transnational migration and the local socio-spatial impacts on the cities appears evident, empirical research on the ‘relationship of migrants and cities’ remains underexplored. Discussions on global city makers have focused primarily on global economic actors, and have paid little attention to actors involved in shaping these global cities locally. This paper sheds new light on the role of migration industries in shaping global cities on the local level, being based empirically on qualitative interviews with transnational migrants and service providers in Tokyo. It discusses how the novel constellation of service firms for the transnational migration from above and below, that is, corporate migration industry in contrast to the conventional migration industry of labour migration, not only contributes to the global flow of transnational migrations into specific cities, but also draws them into specific socio-spatial patterns within the local urban space. By bringing these different types of migration industries conceptually together, it illustrates how socio-spatial diversification processes within global cities are embedded in the global economy (global city makers) but also locally directed by intermediary actors of migration industries (global city shapers). Embedding migration industries into the global cities perspective, it bridges the gap on urban transformation from the global to the local.

How do tax-based revitalisation policies affect urban property development? Evidence from Bronzeville, Chicago
税收激励政策如何影响城市房地产开发?来自芝加哥布朗兹维尔的证据
Abstract
Fiscal incentives are frequently used to stimulate property development in distressed communities but the efficacy and impacts of this approach have been contested. In this study, a theory of real estate production was utilised to evaluate the Opportunity Zones (OZ) policy in the USA. Qualitative data collected from interviews and fieldwork are analysed to understand how the property development scene of a predominantly African-American neighbourhood had been affected by the OZ designation. Interviewees, including black local developers, represented diverse types and scales of real estate production. It was found that new investment capital was flowing into Bronzeville but not into projects proposed by small, local developers and community organisations. This was largely for two reasons: first, the less experienced and resource-constrained players had insufficient resources and expertise to connect with the OZ-induced investors. Second, when they were connected, their projects were deemed highly risky and thus unattractive. The perception of risk was likely amplified in Bronzeville, a historically marginalised black neighbourhood. For tax-based urban revitalisation policies to increase marginalised communities’ access to capital, appropriate public interventions must be accompanied to level out the playing field for the under-resourced and historically marginalised players of real estate production. One such intervention might be to create and support a network of financial intermediaries that specialise in connecting capital to projects proposed by black developers, other non-profit developers and community organisations. Without such measures, policies such as OZ are likely to exacerbate existing inequalities rather than uplifting disadvantaged communities.

What determines pupils’ travel distance to school in China? A multilevel analysis of educational access in Beijing
是什么决定了中国学生到学校的旅行距离?北京市教育可达性的多层次分析
Abstract
While access to school is one crucial aspect of education equality, there is a lack of research on factors that influence the distance that pupils travel to school. Previous studies have failed to reveal the relationship between pupils’ socio-spatial characteristics and travel distance. This paper uncovers the multilevel structure, ignored hitherto, that underpins the determinants of pupils’ travel distance. Using detailed travel survey data for Beijing and an appropriate multilevel modelling approach, this research reveals that contextual variation remains, having taken account of compositional (individual-level) variables; and that contextual factors, that is, school density and neighbourhood context, are more influential when compared with individual-level factors except for education stage and housing type. The policy implications include improved planning for schools in comparatively deprived areas, increased provision of affordable housing and enhanced education opportunities for migrant children.
虽然上学的机会是教育平等的一个重要方面,但缺乏对影响学生上学通勤距离的因素的研究。先前的研究未能揭示学生的社会空间特征和通勤距离之间的关系。本文揭示了迄今为止被忽视的多层次结构,这种结构支撑着学生通勤距离的决定因素。使用详细的北京出行调查数据和适当的多层次建模方法,本研究揭示,在剔除成分(个人层面)变量后,环境差异仍然存在;除了教育阶段和住房类型之外,与个人层面的因素相比,学校密度和街区环境等环境因素更具影响力。政策方面的应用包括改善相对贫困地区的学校规划、增加经济适用房供应、以及增加移民儿童的受教育机会。
