Full Description
This comprehensive Handbook provides an overview of China's latest social policy developments, assessing welfare reforms amidst its transformation from a socialist to a mixed economy. Systematically examining the impact of China's social policies on human wellbeing, expert authors examine the needs and challenges of various welfare users.
Chapters explore China's policymaking process, the welfare relationship between central and local governments and changes in key welfare policies, from social security and housing to health and education. Contributors also discuss measures implemented for special welfare issues, including poverty, migrant workers, left-behind children, mental health measures and digital technology in health services. The Handbook demonstrates how China has reduced poverty and increased opportunities for the general public to access medical services, while also highlighting demand for greater reduction in regional inequalities.
The Handbook on Social Policy in China is a crucial resource for scholars and students in social policy, health and social care. Its valuable insights into socio-economic conditions in China and government measures to tackle inequalities, will also appeal to policymakers and welfare practitioners.
