摘要

Currently, our country is in the period of social transition, the widening gap between the rich and the poor, social class curing are directly related to intergenerational transmission of human capital. This paper, from the perspective of economics, combining discipline sociology, and behavioral science knowledge, analyses the mechanism and motivation of intergenerational transmission of human capital, and discusses the motivation practical application of intergenerational transmission of human capital in our country. At present, China is in a period of social transformation, the gap between rich and poor is wider, social structure is harden, "second generation" is frequent, which are all questioning China's social fair mechanism, and the crux of the issue is closely related to the intergenerational transmission of human capital. From the theory of intergenerational transmission literature review of human capital at home and abroad, it is found that a large number of empirical research is developed in European and America developed countries data context, research in developing countries is rarer, and Asia background research is lesser. Over more than 30 years China's reform and opening up, a unique model of socio-economic development is created and study on the intergenerational transmission of human capital in China should have a more typical significance. Research in our country more takes the intergenerational transmission of human capital as an explanatory variable of income, poverty and other issues' intergenerational transmission, and less truly focuses on the theoretical issues such as mechanism, motivation and ways of intergenerational transmission of human capital. There is need for further study and exploration. From economics perspective, combining disciplines such as sociology, behavioral science knowledge, this paper analyzes mechanisms and incentive of intergenerational transmission of human capital.
