近日，经济学院经济学系罗唯助理教授的合作论文The national-integration effect of compulsory education: Evidence from Chinese minorities（合作者：胡志安，中央财经大学）在发展经济学顶级刊物Journal of Development Economics上在线发表。
论文摘要
Can governments promote national integration through compulsory education? We examine this question in the context of China’s Compulsory Education Law, which was initiated in 1986 and implemented across provinces in subsequent years. Exploiting variation in individual exposure to the policy during ages 6–15, we find that ethnic minorities with longer exposure were more likely to enter interethnic marriages. This effect is stronger in regions with lower residential segregation and among groups more affected by language unification. Minorities with longer exposure also tended to choose less ethnically distinctive names for their children, suggesting a degree of acculturation. Furthermore, we show that compulsory education fostered shared civic values and a strong sense of national identity among minority populations.
