- Abstract:
- ABSTRACT: This paper provides a brief summary of China's social policy in the last three decades by dividing it into two significant stages. It analyses the different policy orientations and concrete measurements in the two stages. According to the author, the changes and development of China's social policy in the last three decades were, to a large extent, responses to the economic transition and the current socio-economic conditions. In the first stage, China's social policy had to keep a low social welfare level to support the labour-intensive and foreign-trade oriented economic model in the 1990s. In the second stage, it had turned more to solve serious social problems and responded to the new economic and social challenges. After the fast development of almost two decades, China's social policy is still facing big challenges. Several important issues for further social policy development are discussed in this paper.
