The Chinese government has recently adopted a radical welfare
approach by contracting out social services to non-governmental
organisations (NGOs). This is a big departure from its traditional
welfare model, whereby all public services were directly delivered
by government agencies. This book examines this new welfare
approach. It analyses the implementation of various types of
services for individuals, families and communities - including
medical social services, care of the elderly, probation services
and much more. It discusses important issues arising from
contracting out, considers the nature of the contracted NGOs and
their services, and explores major problems encountered by both
government agencies and NGOs. This book also compares the
similarities and differences of contracting policies in different
cities. Overall, the book provides an overview of one of the most
important welfare policy changes in contemporary China.
