摘要
在我国,社会福利是社会保障制度中的一个特定领域,通常指由民政部门主管的专门为老弱病残提供的具有福利性质的社会服务,诸如儿童福利、老人福利和残疾人福利等,而服务的方式主要以院舍供养为主。市场经济体制改革以来,民政部门一直在探索社会福利社会化的方法,试图改变政府包办社会福利和企业办社会的传统格局,从而形成政府与社会组织或个人共同营办社会福利服务的局面。然而,经过20多年的改革实践,企业办社会的包袱基本被取消了,但政府独立支撑社会福利服务的状况基本没有改变,由此而导致我国的社会福利事业发展缓慢,服务的数量和质量都不能适应社会变化的需要。本文认为,造成这种局面的原因有两个相互关联的因素:一是政府对公民社会组织培育和支持不足,二是政府投入不足,缺少对民间资金的激励政策。社会福利社会化是政府提供服务的方式发生变化,而不是从社会福利责任中的退出。政府必须发挥资金投资主体的角色。
In China, as a particular area of social security system, social welfare refers to social welfare service in the charge of civil administration departments provided specially for the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled. Since the reform to the market economic system, civil administration departments have been exploring the ways of the socialization of social welfare, trying to change the traditional pattern of government- monopolized or enterprise- run welfare and initiating the cooperation in social welfare service between the government and social organizations or individuals. However, after 20 years' practice, almost no changes have taken place in the government- monopolized social welfare service, slowing the progress of Chinese social welfare services. The paper puts forward two interrelated factors resulting in the situation: one is the insufficient governmental support for social organizations, the other being the lack of both the governmental investment and policies to encourage nongovernmental capital. The socialization of social welfare changes the means of government service instead of helping the government evade responsibility for social welfare. The government is bound to serve as the main body of capital investment.
