本文基于独特的2007年和2009年四川省农村家庭微观调查数据,分析汶川大地震对农户家庭收入和消费的影响。我们发现地震造成农户收入下降,但人力资本和非农务工对于缓解地震对收入的负向冲击具有显著作用。政府发放的生活补助款项起到对于收入下降的弥补作用,也使得农户的消费水平在震后保持较快增长。然而,政府提供的住房重建补贴和贷款却不足以负担农户的建房成本。
Based on the unique micro-survey data of rural households in Sichuan Province in 2007 and 2009, this paper analyzes the impact of Wenchuan earthquake on household income and consumption. We found that the earthquake caused the household income to drop, but human capital and non-farm workers played a significant role in alleviating the negative impact of the earthquake on income. The government subsidies for living allowances have played a compensatory role in declining incomes, and the peasant household’s consumption level has maintained a rapid growth after the earthquake. However, the housing subsidies and loans provided by the government are not enough to cover the cost of housing construction.
