Using rigorous econometric methods and unique datasets, it challenges conventional wisdom on rural-urban migration, revealing its complex impact on agricultural productivity and migrant health. The study also examines how pension reforms influence land reallocation and labor mobility, while uncovering the alarming role of inequality of opportunity in rural earnings disparities.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;\"\u003eXinjie Shi is a Tenured Associate Professor and Research Fellow at the School of Public Affairs and the China Academy for Rural Development, Zhejiang University.
