中国养老保险改革20年回望与思考

Retrospect and Thinking: The Pension Insurance Reform Over the 20 Years in China

中国近20年养老保险改革经历了前后两个不同阶段,如今再次面临方向和路径选择的十字路口。一个平台、两大板块、三层责任体系是中国新时期养老保险改革的不二选择。在养老保险改革路径和顺序选择越来越多地体现出公共选择和公共决策的政治性的当下,政府尤其是中央政府的责任担当至为重要。

It has been through two distinct stages during the nearly 20 years of pension reform in China, and now again the government is faced with the direction and path selection.
