Abstract: This paper builds a measurement index system for migrant workers 'relative poverty, and uses CFPS data to measure and decompose migrant workers' relative poverty index from the perspective of intergenerational differences. The study find that the degree of migrant workers' relative poverty is on the decrease year by year, but the incidence rate of the relative poverty in dimensions of education, life and work is still very high. The relative poverty incidence rate of the older-generation migrant workers is generally higher and decreases at a much slower pace. The new generation of migrant workers and the older generation of migrant workers are more likely to be relatively poor in the low dimension and the high dimension. Income and education have always always been the most responsible for migrant workers' relative poverty, which is more serious among the older generation of migrant workers. The unconditional quantile regression decomposition results of RIF indicate that intergenerational discrimination is the main cause of the expansion of the relative poverty gap among migrant workers, and there is a strong “sticky floor effect”.
