人口老龄化与老年残疾人保障体系的构建

Population Aging and the Construction of Social Security System for the Aged with Disability

老龄化是世界人口结构变化不可逆转的趋势,包括残疾人事业在内的各种与人口有关的制度与事业的发展理应与人口老龄化进程相适应。人口老龄化不仅是造成残疾人数量增加的主要原因,也是改变残疾人结构及残疾人保障需求的重要原因。因此,研究残疾人事业需要特别重视老龄化问题,残疾人保障体系建设也需要以老年残疾人的保障为重点。

People with disability play an important role in society, which manifests the diversity of humanity. As population aging is becoming the irreversible tendency of the development of the world＇s population structure, the development of systems related to population, including the development of systems for the aged with disability, should adapt themselves to it. Population aging is not only the main reason why the quantity of people with disability increases, but also the important reason for the change of the composition and demand structure of people with disability. Therefore, the problem of the aged should not be ignored when we talk about the issue of people with disability, and the security system for the aged with disability should be stressed during the construction of social security system for people with disability. Based on the Second China National Sample Survey on Disability, this paper analyzes the characters of the aged with disabilities and the present situation of security supplies for them, and also put forward some suggestions to construct the social security system for the aged with disabilities.
