Abstract

Based on the field survey data in Liaoning province, this paper analyzed the family echelon flow of migration rural population, compared the differences of family echelon flow among different types of cities and between different generations of migrant workers. The analysis showed that echelon flow character of migration rural population in Liaoning province was obvious. The main flow pattern was husband pioneer echelon flow and trailing wife employment. In big city, whether the husband pioneer echelon flow or the wife pioneer echelon flow, the proportion of the trailing spouse underemployment was generally low, but this phenomenon was not obvious in small-medium cities. Family migration became important symbol which was different between the old generation of migrant workers and the new generation of migrant workers. With the development of family echelon flow, the government should perfect the corresponding policies and system according to the different stages and characteristics of migration rural population.
