进城、流动与保障——农民工社会保障问题研究综述

从研究建立农民工社会保障制度的必要性开始就已经展开了对农民工提供社会保障是否会影响企业竞争力的争论,至今尚无明确的答案,但是,这是农民工社会保障研究一个无法回避的问题,受到它的影响,目前农民工社会保障政策实施的效果并不理想.虽然这一领域的研究较多,但还存在诸多不足:第一,研究内容不全面:对社会保险研究较多,对社会保障其他项目的研究较少;从影响农民工参加社会保险的因素来看,研究农民工个人因素的较多,研究企业因素的较少;具体的对策研究多,对农民工社会保障问题总体性、前瞻性研究少.第二,研究方法较单一.吸收其他领域的研究成果,采用多学科的综合研究手段对农民工社会保障问题进行总体规划和制度创新将是后续研究的方向.

A Survey on the Social Security of Peasant-workers

Along with China's reform and opening-up since 1978,a great many peasants have migrated from the countryside to the urban areas.The problem of peasant-workers is increasingly attractive to the scholars.In terms of social stability,social security should cover the peasant-workers.Numerous papers have sprung up in this field since 2005 but we don't know if the social security of peasant-workers will influence the competitive ability of business enterprises in China.We don't have an explicit answer and the peasant-workers haven't got social security.There are many things missing in these studies.(1) Although there have been so many studies in this field,there is still a lack of a social security system for the peasant-workers,let alone a social relief and social security system.There are more papers on social insurance than papers on the social relief system and the social welfare system.Papers on factors that affect social insurance of peasant-workers and peasant-workers as personal factors overwhelm those on business enterprises.The research on social security of peasant-workers based on competition capacity should be reinforced.(2) The study of the social security of peasant-workers does not suit the practice of the social security of peasant-workers.(3) The study on this issue is too simple.We hope to benefit from other fields.At the end of this survey,further possible directions are pointed out for the studies aiming at a whole system for the peasant-workers.The author proposed some research areas that should be strengthened in the near futures.One is enriching the contents of researches on the social security of peasant-workers.The other is the research on social security of peasant-workers based on competition capacity.System innovation of social security of peasant-workers is very important.
