Abstract | The article ... discusses how the economic and education reforms implemented in China have worsened equality of education opportunity. It discusses how inter- provincial inequality increased between 1988 and 1995, and rising inequality is shown to be associated with rising disparities in educational opportunity and economic growth. While the most recent data about China suggest that exclusion is declining, disparities are increasing because there is more wealth disparity and wealth is more strongly associated with the educational chances of children than in the past. The author identifies the following mechanisms linking these global changes to changed educational chances: incentives faced by parents, as economic reforms increase the opportunity cost of attending school, and the ability of parents, as those living in poorer areas were more dependent on contributions from their children.
