论社会变革对我国人口老龄化的决定性作用

Of the Decisive Effect of Social Transformation on China's Population Aging

与西方国家的老龄化问题的成因不同,我国人口老龄化的决定性因素是建国以来经历的两次重大的社会变革:第一次社会变革奠定了人口老龄化的社会基础,第二次社会变革创造了人口老龄化的实现条件。20世纪70年代的计划生育政策所以能够顺利实施,是以新中国成立后迅速下降的死亡率为基础的。建国以来的两次社会变节,还改变了人们的生育意愿和生育文化。

The decisive factor of China＇s population aging lies in the two major social changes since the founding of new China, different from that in the western countries. The first social change laid the social foundation of population aging, and the second social change created the condition to realize for the aging of the population. The smooth application of the policy of family planning was based on the dramatic decrease of death rate after the founding of new China. The two major changes have altered people＇ s fertility desire and culture.
