10 : : The Cropland Conversion : Contracting Out and Public Regulation Wang Xiaolong (CCER ;Peking University) Abstract :The Cropland Conversion Program is an important public policy for improving ecological environment. Focusing on the arrangement of structure of property rights, the Program tries to establish a new contractual relationship between government and farmers so as to reduce negative externalities by cultivating activities and encourage the afforesting activities that are conducive to the improvement of ecological environment. Within the framework of principal2agent model, this paper studies incentive2 incompatibility problems that may exist in the enforcement of the contract. Firstly, the paper makes an analysis on the social rationality of the contacting out. The analysis is followed by a model to show how market shocks may cause the behavior of farmers to be inconsistent as to the goal of the program. Then, taking The Cropland Conversion Program of Shannxi Province as a study case, the paper makes an empirical analysis on incentive2incompatibility problems facing the enforcement of specific public policies. Finally, the paper proposes a series of public regulation schemes in the hope that they can be used to improve the efficiency of the enforcement of the program.

Heterogeneity,Selection Bias and the Return to Education : A Empirical Analysis Based on Chinese Micro2Data Li Xue2song James J. Heckman ( Insitute of Mathemetical and technical Economics,CASS) (Chicago University) Abstract :This paper uses newly available Chinese micro data to estimate the return to college education for late 20th century China when allowing for heterogeneous returns among individuals selecting into schooling based on these differences. We use modern micro2econometric methods to identify the parameters of interest. We demonstrate that heterogeneity among people in returns to schooling is substantial. People sort into schooling on the basis of the principle of comparative advantage, which we document to be an empirically important phenomenon in modern Chinese labor markets. Standard least squares or instrumental variable methods do not properly account for this sorting. Using new methods that do, we estimate the effect on earnings of sending a randomly selected person to college is a 43 % increase in lifetime earnings (nearly 11 % annually) in 2000 for young people in urban areas of six provinces of China. Our evidence, and simple least squares evidence, suggests that after 202plus years of economic reform with market orientation, the return to education has increased substantially in China, compared to the returns measured in the 1980πs and the early 1990πs.
