Book Description

Publication Date: September 30, 2008 | ISBN-10: 0230609511 | ISBN-13: 978-0230609518
China’s leaders faced a major challenge to provide citizens with acceptable social welfare during the economic transition. They are confronted with building a new support system in the countryside, shifting the burden in urban China from the factory to the local state, and integrating new social groups, into existing systems. The book comprises a detailed study of healthcare, disease control, social insurance and social relief.
