Abstract

Based on the data of the China Migrants Dynamic Survey in 2017,this paper empirically analyzes the relationship between rural migrant workers' family-based migration and their social integration. The research finds that: 1) Family migration has a significant positive impact on the social integration of rural migrant workers,while semi-family migration has no significant impact on the social integration of rural migrant workers. A reasonable explanation is that the current semi-family migration is represented by spouse migration, rural migrant workers' goal is to maximize their income,and their family focus is still the rural hometown. Only when major families,including spouses and children,migrate to the urban areas, their family focus changes from the rural areas to the urban areas. 2) According to heterogeneity analysis,it is the first generation of rural migrant workers, the farther the migration distance of migrant workers,and when the urban area flowing into is the eastern region, family migration has a positive impact on the social integration of rural migrant workers,but when the inflow urban area is the northeast region, familialization migration has no significant effect on the social integration of migrant workers.3) The results of the influence mechanism show that housing situation is one of the important intermediate mechanisms of family migration affecting the social integration of rural migrant workers,that is, family migration makes the housing situation of migrant workers differentiated,which in turn leads to differences in their social integration.
