传教士与中国社会救助事业的近代化

Missionaries and the Modernization of Social Assistance in China

近代以来,西方传教士通过创办慈善救助事业以实现其传教之目的。传教士在华创办的医疗、慈幼、灾荒赈济等慈善救助事业广泛地践行了西方社会先进的施救理念与模式,为中国社会救助实践树立了新的榜样。在中西救助实践的比照下,中国社会救助事业逐渐开启了学习西方,扬弃传统的近代化之路。

Since the modern times,the western missionaries did missionary work through charitable corporations in China.Medical,Salesian,famine relief and other charitable activities founded by Western missionaries widely practiced the advanced western social assistance idea and set a new example for Chinese social assistance practice.Under the influence of Western relief practice,Chinese social assistance gradually started the modernization of the cause by learning from the west and discarding the tradition.
