Abstract
This paper aims to investigate the relationship between the quality of life of these self-imposed-land-lost peasants and informal land development in Beijing. Three questions are answered: if and how their life quality is improved after they lost farmlands? How the improvement is related to informal urban development? To what extent the improvement can be guaranteed in the existing institutional context? The authors collected survey and interview data. The results of analysis show that both the subjective and objective features of the quality of life of those peasants were greatly improved after their lands were lost. The peasants become shareholders and can receive considerable incomes by illegally transferring their farmlands to village-owned enterprises, who develop the farmlands as urban residential areas or industrial parks.
