Abstract

According to China's typical dual-economic structure characteristics, the paper develops a general equilibrium model of urban-rural sectors through introducing the resource-environmental constraint. With the model, Jiangxi province of China is taken as a case to be calibrated, and the result shows that when the transfer level from rural population to urban sector is at a steady path, the equilibrium urbanization level z is 79.23%.
