中文摘要：

利用过去10年集体林区的微观农户调查数据，从消费角度衡量家庭的福利水平，构建了基于农户的不平等指标，采用IPW方法控制样本损耗偏误，估算了集体林权制度改革对农村不平等的影响。研究发现，集体林权制度改革的彻底实施能减少13％的消费不平等，并从日常消费方面改善基层农民的生活质量，而农村中的村干部、党员等身份影响家庭对耐用消费品的使用。

英文摘要：

Using a unique nationwide household-level panel surveys over the past decade, we present a new frame- work to identify the impacts of the collective forest tenure reform on rural inequality in China, where IPW method is used to control sample attrition bias. Our preferred estimates indicate that Tenure Reform Pohcy will significant- ly reduce Chinese rural consumption gaps by 13% if the reform goals have been completely carried out. This esti- mate is robust to numerous specification checks and relatively precise, so improving well-being for the less advan- taged in rural society is likely. It also find rural inequality is sensitive to social status because the growing elites can exacerbate the problem.
