Abstract
One of the most influential social policies which are still
being implemented in China is family planning policy, also known
as one-child policy. The policy was enacted in the late 1979, and
was written into the 1982 Chinese Constitution. The Official
objectives of the family planning policy are to slow the population
growth, improve the quality of population, and facilitate economic
growth. In this project, we will answer an important question: Has
the family planning policy improved the quality of the Chinese new
generation, as measured by education level?
