Description

This Routledge academic book examines subnational variation and the evolving balance between state and non-state welfare provision across China. The contributors reveal the diversity of local welfare systems that exists beneath broad national policies, demonstrating how local governments implement social programmes according to their specific economic and social development needs. By focusing on local diversity rather than centralised frameworks, the volume provides essential insight into how China's welfare system actually operates at the regional and municipal level, where policy implementation differs significantly from national directives. The book addresses two previously underexplored areas in Chinese welfare research: the regional differences in provision and the shifting roles of public and private actors in social support. Scholars, policymakers and students of Chinese social policy will find this analysis valuable for understanding the complexity and heterogeneity of welfare arrangements across the country.

Key Features

This Routledge Studies on China in Transition volume focuses specifically on local and subnational variations in welfare provision rather than national-level analysis alone.

The book examines how state and non-state actors share responsibility for welfare delivery, reflecting changing patterns in social provision across different regions.

Contributors demonstrate the practical diversity of local welfare systems and how they adapt to each area's unique economic and social circumstances.

The study addresses the gap between national welfare policy design and how local governments actually implement these programmes on the ground.
