备注

作为我国特有的传统文化,宗族文化增强了族群的凝聚力和团结力,深刻影响着家族成员的行为和活动。基于中国家庭追踪调查数据(CFPS)探究了宗族文化对我国农村劳动力非农就业的影响,结果表明,宗族文化将显著提高农村劳动力非农就业的概率,且这一结论具有稳健性。进一步地,采用工具变量法解决了可能存在的内生性问题,这再次印证了本文的结论。此外,异质性分析发现,宗族文化对农村劳动力非农就业的影响在不同的年龄、家庭收入水平及地区的群体中具有明显的差异。进一步机制分析得出,宗族主要通过提升农村劳动力素质水平和促进社会关系两个途径来提高农村劳动力非农就业的概率。
As a distinct traditional culture in China, clan culture enhances the cohesion and unity of the ethnic groups, and profoundly affects the behavior and activities of family members. Based on China Family Panel Studies(CFPS), this article explores the influence of clan culture on the non-agricultural employment for rural laborers in China. The results show that clan culture significantly increases the probability of non-agricultural employment of rural labors, and this conclusion is robust. Moreover, the instrumental variable method is used to resolve the possible endogenous issues, which once again confirms the conclusions of this article. In addition, the heterogeneity analysis indicates that the influence of clan culture on the non-agricultural employment for rural laborers varies across different groups of ages, family income levels and regions. Further mechanistic analysis deduces a conclusion that the clan mainly improves the probability of non-agricultural employment of rural laborers by two means of developing the quality of rural labor and promoting social relations.
