Title: An Exploratory Analysis of the Financial Issue of China's Compulsory Education
Abstract: Resolution on the Reformation of the Educational System was issued in 1985. From then on till the early 1990s, our government has basically established the financial system of educational budgets, which are obligatorily collected by the local government by means of graded administration and multisource collection. This financial system of compulsory education is favorable in mobilizing all possible educational resources available, but has generated some deficiencies in its own. For example, different levels of governments are not equivalent in ability and obligation; the central government is not clearly obligatory for compulsory education; different localities are severely imbalanced in educational investment and development; superior governments, especially the central government, fail to keep macrocontrol over educational finance; and farmers are overburdened with compulsory education, etc. All these affect the educational equity in our country to a certain degree.
