农村养老模式区域比较——基于浙东W村与江西L村

Regional Comparison of Rural Pension Patterns

农村养老问题是当前中国迫在眉睫的严重社会问题。现阶段我国农村养老制度中存在家庭负担过重、国家责任微弱、社区角色缺失等问题。此外,农村老年人的精神需求更是被严重忽视,精神生活极度匮乏。通过对东部发达地区浙东W村和中西部欠发达江西L村养老模式的区域比较研究发现,尽管两个区域的农村养老都是以家庭养老为主,但是其中仍然存在差异,如东部地区农村老年人主要依靠自己,自力更生,而中西部地区的老年人较多地依赖于子女养老;同时国家介入程度的不同也导致两地老年人的生活质量的差异。

The problem of rural pension is a serious social problem that is currently urgent in China.At present,there are problems such as overburdened families,weak state responsibilities,and lack of community roles in China's rural pension system.In addition,the spiritual needs of the rural elderly are seriously ignored and their spiritual life is extremely insufficient.Through a comparative study on the old-age model of Zhejiang W village in the eastern developed areas and the underdeveloped Jiangxi L village in the central and western regions,it is found that although the rural pension in the two regions is mainly based on family pension,there are still some differences,such as the rural elderly in the eastern region rely more on themselves and become self-reliant,while the elderly in the central and western regions rely more on their children's pensions.At the same time,the degree of state involvement also leads to differences in the quality of life of the elderly in the two places.
