Abstract
ABSTRACTThis paper estimates child income poverty in rural China and evaluates the pro-poor nature of income growth during the period 2005–2015. The results show that the growth is absolutely pro-poor but not relatively pro-poor. Although the child poverty level in rural China has decreased, the relative income level of children at the bottom levels of income decreased and the inequality level among rural children increased, which slowed the process of poverty reduction.
