ABSTRACT

This study basically defines the direction of welfare changes in China after the reform as socialization of welfare system, and argues that this is a way of social management in which the Chinese government responds to changes of socioeconomic structure and the accompanying sort of welfare crisis after the reform, and that in general the socialization of welfare in China's reform era has characteristics eventually result in commercialization and commodification of welfare services which have significantly increased individual welfare burden with the recession of the state role under the developmental welfare regime based on growth priority strategy, and that, as a result, a very differentiated welfare environment was formed in urban and rural areas even if the government did not intend to. This fundamental social welfare system transition can be summarized as the changes from an enterprise-statist model to a socialization model, from a pure welfare service system to a marketization service model and from a universal welfare to a selective welfare model.
