目前从整体上讲,我国城市贫困主要不是绝对贫困,而是具有相对贫困和绝对贫困的双重性。国家统计局城调总队利用17000户城市居民收支调查资料,估算目前我国城市贫困人口在1000万-1500万。经济增长是摆脱贫困的前提,发展经济同时保持公平合理分配原则是消除城市贫困的根本途径。 At present, on the whole, the urban poverty in our country is not mainly the absolute poverty but the dual nature of relative poverty and absolute poverty. National Bureau of Statistics team adjusted the use of 17,000 urban residents income and expenditure survey data to estimate the current urban poor in China 10 million -1500 million. Economic growth is the prerequisite for getting out of poverty. Developing the economy while maintaining the principle of fair and equitable distribution is the fundamental way to eliminate urban poverty.
