Identification of Risk Factors and Countermeasures for Poverty Return of Relocated Households in PovertyAlleviation:An Investigation of the Typical Project Area in Wuling Mountain Region
Consolidating and continuing the achievementsof poverty eliminationand promoting the overall development of impoverished areas are important tasks of the 14th Five-Year Plan period.As the"Number One Project"and"Land-mark Project"of China's poverty alleviation,targeted impoverished areas through relocation are at a stage of vulnerabil-ity management that aims to consolidate the achievements of poverty alleviation.To analyze the problems of poverty-returning caused by various risk factors after the relocation of poor households,based on the theory of sustainable de-velopment and livelihood resilience,this paper takes the typical relocated towns in four provinces and cities in Wuling Mountain Region as the research area,and constructs a valuation index system that covers the three levels of"nature,society,economy"to measure the risk factors of poverty-returning of the relocated people.Moreover,the CRITIC Meth-od,the Synthetical Index Method,and the Factor Contribution Analysis Method are used to objectively calculate the weights of various indicators and the risk of returning to poverty.Meanwhile the risk level of returning to poverty and the causing factors of the relocated people in resettlement areas are quantitatively analyzed.The research has the follow-ing findings.First,based on the Synthetical Index Method,the distribution of the risk of returning to poverty in the re-search area shows an olive-shaped trend of"large in the middle and small at both ends",which indicates there are still unstable factors that cause the risk of returning to poverty after the reconstruction of the development environment.Second,based on the Factor Contribution Analysis Method,the order of risk factors for poverty-returning among the relocated people in the research area is as follows:natural factors＞economic factors＞human factors＞security factors＞industrial factors＞family factors.In accordance with these,this paper proposes six recommendations on policy to consolidate the achievements of poverty alleviation,including strengthening education,improving social security,build-ing industrial defense,enhancing financial support,and establishing early warning system.It is also hoped that the relo-cated farmers could be prevented from returning to poverty,so as to solve the problem of"stability"after relocation,and effectively connect with rural revitalization.
