While families continue to play an important role by providing care and financial aid, the number of government-subsidized caregiving services sponsored by non-governmental organizations has grown since the 1970s. The private sector is also playing a more influential role in the provision of residential care services for the elderly. The incremental shifts in care provision during the past decades were a result of the pressures accompanying socio-economic and demographic changes, as well as the political demands of feminists and children's rights advocates. The shift in the care regime was also very much shaped by institutional considerations and government interests.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"295 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115260378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The necessity to address the consequences of these trends led to important political changes in recent decades, which have had major financial and operational impacts on the Korean care regime. The state has increased its financing of care services. Operationally, there has been a shift to “socialization of care” through vitalization of markets. Despite these important changes, the burden of care is still shouldered by families, and the priorities established by government policy have created winners and losers, depending on the type of care needed. Moreover, coverage limitations in Long-Term Care Insurance elder care services have done little to improve the financial hardship of those who require services. Extra (fee-based) programs offered by child care services have also increased the financial demand on families.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129073212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using existing data (primarily the National Surveys on Social Support to Older People in Rural and Urban China, conducted by the China Research Centre on Ageing in 2000 and 2006), we examine the change in China's care regime, focusing on the infrastructure (services and financing) and the distribution of provision among four sectors: family, state, community and the market. We show that the care regime in China remains traditional, relying heavily on the family. Although facing challenges, the state is hesitant to assume more responsibility for funding and provision.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132029016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effects of the feminist movement and of advocacy groups for the elderly on caregiving policies are then examined. Care arrangements for preschool children and the elderly in Taiwan are described, as well as the role of the government in these arrangements. Our findings show similarities in child care and elder care trends: many of the caregiving responsibilities of the family have been taken up by the state, the market, and non-profit agencies, although the family still plays a dominant role. The marketplace has assumed an increasing share of child care provision for preschoolers. Care for seniors is often provided by migrant domestic workers who are hired by the family. The expansion of the government's role in these matters in recent years has led to pressing policy issues, which this paper will address.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130827010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pronatalist policy reforms have been developed in recent years, which call into question long-standing assumptions about the provision of care by the state, the market, non-profit organisations and the family. This article examines how the balance of the four poles of the “care diamond” is changing in terms of financing and providing elder and child care in Japan. We begin by briefly explaining the foundation of social care and Japanese social policy development, which is the background of the current policy agenda for child and elder care in Japan. We then explain the current elder and child care policies, and examine the results of the government's plan of “defamilialisation”.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"159 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114568082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various care regimes and arrangements have been initiated to tackle these recent challenges. Care regimes rely on care services from different sectors. While the family retains its significant role in all these societies, its care burden has been shared by other sectors, especially the state. While the state primarily provides funding, community and market sectors are playing a more significant role in the provision of services. Demographic and political forces (e.g. feminism, elderly and children's rights advocacy) have compelled the state to expand its involvement; however, the details of the reconstituted care regimes and the redistribution of roles and burdens reflect each society's institutional legacy, their ideological commitment to state or market, and their range of alternatives to state provision.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"561 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123031695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the descriptive level, we investigated the socioeconomic backgrounds of the households, the rate of poverty, distributive effects of public and private transfers, and Gini coefficients at each stage of income distribution. We then conducted logistic regression analyses of the poverty rate at the last stage of income distribution. The major finding was that within the context of a small welfare state, Taiwan had the lowest poverty rate before transfers and the second lowest poverty rate after transfers of the three countries we studied. Moreover, at the last stage of income distribution, only two independent variables (education and work status of the household head) affected the poverty rate. We conclude that Taiwan, as one of the developmental welfare regimes in Asia, had created a different way of enhancing the economic wellbeing of female-headed households in the past, compared with the other two countries.","PeriodicalId":270572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Social Welfare","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122371913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
