The impact of welfare reform for families with children: Evidence from New York: A report of the New York city social indicators center,Columbia university school of social work

Abstract

This paper uses data from the Current Population Survey and administrative data from New York to simulate the poverty impact of the recent federal and state welfare reforms. We find that the federal welfare reforms would in the absence of additional state or local aid raise the poverty rate of families with children and the poverty gap (the amount needed to raise poor families’ incomes up to the poverty line). Although New York state and local welfare programs will offset much of this impact, we find that even with state and local aid, 16,000 families with children will move into poverty and 63,000 families with children, most of them already poor, will move into severe poverty, while the aggregate poverty gap will increase by nearly 25%.     

历史文化街区焕发新活力的思考——以广州市荔湾区恩宁路为例

我国的城市建设已从增量时代进入存量时代,城市发展进入"城市修补"的阶段。这种城市修补的目的在于阻止城市的衰退,促进城市形成新的发展。城市新发展不但是硬件条件的更新,更重要的是城市中老旧街区的功能新生和焕发结构性新活力。历史文化街区中老旧片区的改造可以说是城市老旧街区功能新生和焕发结构性新活力的典型尝试。本文以广州市荔湾区恩宁路历史文化街区的改造为例,从恩宁路所在的片区背景入手,分析永庆坊改造模式,梳理永庆坊改造模式取得的成绩和存在的问题,在此基础上思考恩宁路老旧街区焕发新活力的路径。
