Abstract

Based on inter-provincial panel data of China from 1999 to 2015, this paper empirically tests the relationship between education input, social security expenditure and urban-rural income gap by using GMM estimation method. The results show that education input and social security expenditure have a significant impact on the urban-rural income gap, and there are regional differences. Specifically, the augments of education input and social security expenditure has made the urban-rural income gap in the west expanded and the urban-rural income gap of the east and midland reduced, but the impact on the east is relatively small. The conclusion of this paper provides a new perspective for understanding the urban-rural income gap in China, and has enlightening significance for further increasing the educational investment in the western rural areas and improving the redistribution efficiency of social security expenditure.
