    Social insurance reform is an important part of Chinas overall reform undertaking and a necessary and important condition for maintaining economic reform and social transformation. In the past 40 years, Chinas social security has experienced a comprehensive and profound institutional reform. It has gone through a gradual reform and development path with Chinese characteristics. The traditional social insurance system that is compatible with the planning system has been transformed into a market economic system. The new social insurance system has created a Chinese experience for the global social insurance system reform. However, Chinas social insurance reform still faces many problems and challenges. It is necessary to deepen reforms to optimize institutional arrangements, balance the burden of responsibility, and truly build a multilevel social security system that can meet the peoples needs for a better life.

    Forty Years of Reform and Opening Up——Review and Outlook of Chinas Pension Insurance#br#
    He Wenjiong
    2018, 52 (11):  16-24.  DOI:
    Abstract ( )   PDF (7296KB) ( )  
    Since the reform and opening up 40 years ago, Chinas pension insurance system has undergone a historic change. The main signs are: (1) The pension insurance system model changes from noncontributory welfare to paymentbased insurance; (2) Basic pension insurance is recognized as a basic national interest, and the scope of pension insurance benefits from salaried workers are extended to all nationals; (3) From adapting to the reform of stateowned enterprises to serving the overall situation of national development, the construction and reform of the pension insurance system has made important contributions to the promotion of economic and social development. However, there are still many problems in the current system: (1) The basic oldage insurance system is still in a state of division, which is neither fair nor efficient; (2) Although the principle of multilevel pension insurance system has already been formed, the actual progress is not satisfactory; (3) The concept of pension insurance governance lags behind. China should gradually form a more equitable, sustainable and efficient pension insurance system in the new era.

    From the Local SelfPilot to the Centralized and Local Responsibility Dominated by the Central Government——An Interpretation Framework for the Reform of Chinas Social Insurance System in the 40 Years of Reform and Opening Up#br#

    Abstract ( )   PDF (6530KB) ( )  
    The relationship between the central and the local government is an important perspective to understand the reform of Chinas social insurance system in the 40 years of reform and opening up. The study found that the social insurance reform in China originated from local spontaneous experiments, and the local pilot under the guidance of the central government is an important way to explore the reform model, while the regional division of the system in turn requires the central governments toplevel design and rational division of central and local responsibility. The local division of the social insurance system is an inevitable result of the influence of the economic system reform path, and is significantly affected by the difference between the fiscal system of the divided finance and the reform concept of the different ministries of central government. Driven by the external pressure brought about by the largescale population movement and the unity of the social insurance system, the social insurance system is gradually moving from regional division to unity.

    Abstract ( )   PDF (6070KB) ( )  
    Through an indepth study of an ordinary rural township in central China, this paper finds some rules of social change during the 40 years of reform and opening up, which include the social form from urbanrural division to urbanrural integration, social structure from class solidification to class mobility, social membership identification from unit (or collective) people to social (free) people, social relations from family and friends to multiconnection, social customs from traditional habits to modern civilization. This series of social changes reveals the development and progress of Chinese society, and also poses new challenges to the social governance in the new era.

    The Heterogeneity and Regulation of Humanities in China from the Perspective of Capital Logic
    Zhong Minghua, Miao Yijing
    2018, 52 (11):  41-49.  DOI:
    Abstract ( )   PDF (6677KB) ( )  
    With the deepening of the socialist market economy, the field of cultural production has optimized the allocation of resources and expanded the scale of output with the help of capital. On the other hand, it has produced many chaos. It is worth noting that these negative effects occur not only in the natural sciences directly linked to capital, but also in the humanities. scholars in Humanity study often linger between the psychological game of academic rationality and capital rationality. If the dominance of capital logic is not timely followed and constrained, the original intention of the humanities to cultivate the human spirit is likely to be resolved. Therefore, constructing a new value policy that conforms to the cultural logic of the humanities and adapts to and actively serves the socialist market economy should be a longterm mechanism to change the current declining situation of humanity study and scholars.

    The Logic of Dividing Adversary Camp behind the Coercive Interaction between US and DPRK: An Analysis of Wedge Strategy
    Zhong Zhenming
    2018, 52 (11):  50-58.  DOI:
    Abstract ( )   PDF (6726KB) ( )  
    This article explores why the United States and the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea employed a surprising coercive and confrontational policy toward each other in recent years. Relying on a relatively new concepts of coercive wedge strategy, the author argues that the coercive interaction between the US and DPRK represented a wedge strategy that was designed to divide the adversary camp or weaken the unity of alliance among rival states. Both the US and DPRK have their own motives, conditions and methods to implement coercive wedge strategy and thus bring about the expected outcomes to the transformation of alliance structure and international relations in Northeast Asia. The theory also reveals that coercive interaction between the US and DPRK has led to awkward positions for China and ROK in the alliance structure in Northeast Asia. To address that situation, the major players of the Korean Nuclear Crisis have to forge their consensus on the policy priority and avoid applying confrontational approaches this would further deteriorate the fragile security structure on Korean Peninsular.

    The National Strategic Choice Syndrome in Geopolitical Change#br#
    Zheng Qing1, Xia Guoyong2
    2018, 52 (11):  59-66.  DOI:
    Abstract ( )   PDF (5734KB) ( )  
    At the present stage, the leading forces of global governance are changing. In order to safeguard vested interests, national strategies are being adjusted by major countries, geopolitical tensions are being created and conflict energies are being accumulated, and a sense of crisis and urgency for competing for the limited interests of countries are being intensified. Thus, it is very easy to mislead the direction of geopolitical changes and undermine the embryonic consensus of geopolitical changes and the development planning of geopolitical changes in the initial stage. The destruction root cause of the hegemonic strategy being implemented by the major countries is that the international community has a chronic problem with the strategic choice of geopolitical development. It is manifested as the strategic competition trap of the dominant major countries, the strategic shift dilemma of the allies and the strategic attachment problem of the backward countries to the geopolitical change, which is the strategic choice syndrome of these geopolitical changes. It makes the global geopolitical ecology develop in a more uncertain direction, and it is easy to carry the multiple contradictions of political fragmentation into the crisis, confrontation, and even war of geopolitical fusion.

    From Mythical Logic to Scientific Socialism——Exploration of Two Kinds of Marxist Logic of Narration#br#
    Zhang Die
    2018, 52 (11):  67-74.  DOI:
    Abstract ( )   PDF (6284KB) ( )  
    There are two kinds of narrative logic in Marx and Engels work. One is mythical logic, and the other is scientific logic. In terms of the theory of the ultimate formation of human society, Marx and Engels constructed the realm of freedom and the advanced stage of communism in logic and scientific logic, respectively. As the ultimate formation of individual and society in Marxist theory, the theory on free individuals and the realm of freedom contains the elements of mythological narratology. Instead, the advanced stage of communism based on historical materialism and the discovery of surplus value, is a scientifically logical conclusion. However, as Marx and Engels became increasingly involved in economic problems and in the study of socialized production, scientific logic, eventually, became the dominant narrative logic of Marxism. Marxism has become scientific Marxism.

    Through Illusion: Zizeks Ideological Criticism and His Attitude of Liberation
    Liu Tongfang1, Shi Yingzhe2
    2018, 52 (11):  75-80.  DOI:
    Abstract ( )   PDF (4488KB) ( )  
    Zizek denies the traditional view that people can gain truth and liberation as long as they break the ideological lies of the ruling class. He believes that ideology has broken the boundary of social consciousness and actively created contemporary social life itself, becoming an inescapable and objective social existence. Through the way of “crossing”, he accepted the social reality full of confrontation, and believed that any attempt to break the unreasonable structure of society to realize human freedom and liberation was a kind of ideological noble aspiration. ieks ideological illusion theory and timetravel critical method provide a unique perspective for us to grasp the current new trend of capitalist society, but he insisted on solving the “impossibility” of contradictions and conflicts when building the future prospects, weakened his critical strength and attitude of liberation in his ideological criticism.

    An Analysis of the Symptoms of Nostalgia in Eastern Europe
    Zhao Sikong
    2018, 52 (11):  81-87.  DOI:
    Abstract ( )   PDF (4935KB) ( )  
    The nostalgia of communism appeared in Eastern Europe after the upheaval and has continued to this day. Communism nostalgia is not an individual phenomenon in Eastern Europe, but a cultural phenomenon with universality, but it is not recognized by the mainstream media and intellectual circles, so it is in a state of silence. We try to use Althussers “symptomatic reading method” to reveal the deep meaning behind the silence, and believe that communism nostalgia may be related to conservatism, commercial logic and Marxism. But only in the connection with Marxism can it create an imagination and a future different from the current state of capitalism.

    The Harm and Governance of Erroneous Social Thoughts in the Process of Comprehensively Deepening Reform
    Han Haitao, Chen Yumeng
    2018, 52 (11):  88-93.  DOI:
    Abstract ( )   PDF (5180KB) ( )  
    In the comprehensive deepening of the reform stage, the Chinese society is faced with the debate on what to change and how to change. Among them, there are mixed figures of erroneous social thoughts. These erroneous thoughts are essentially a replica of the old trend of thought in the new era. Their suggestions focusing on the key areas of reform and key tasks, misleading the public to form a “virtual” mentality and weakening the effectiveness of the reform. Therefore, to strengthen the comprehensive and deepening of the governance of erroneous social thoughts in the process of reform, we need to analyze the current erroneous thoughts and harms that hinder reform, clarify the specific content of “what to change” and “what cannot change”, and adhere to the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics to ensure that comprehensive reforms are deepened along the direction of socialism.

    Zhu Xiaojuan
    2018, 52 (11):  94-100.  DOI:
    Abstract ( )   PDF (5064KB) ( )  
    The research of collectivism has been conducted in China for a long time, and has achieved many valuable results, but there are also some shortcomings. To further strengthen collectivism research in the new era, we need to reexamine its development process and important progress, and clarify its future development trend. Specifically, we must objectively grasp the rise and stage characteristics of collectivism research, comprehensively understand the results and main points of collectivism research, and correctly evaluate the current situation of collectivism research and its salient features. This is conducive to the deepening of collectivism research and the overall advancement of collectivism practice, and thus provides more powerful spiritual power and moral nourishment for the victory of building a welloff society in an allround way and winning the great victory of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

    Yang Hongwei, Zhang Qian
    2018, 52 (11):  101-108.  DOI:
    Abstract ( )   PDF (6532KB) ( )  
    China advocates building a community of human destiny to contribute Chinese wisdom to global governance and gives a Chinese plan. The structural design of science is the basic guarantee for the effective operation of the community. Therefore, constructing a scientific and rational structure is an important task in building a community of human destiny. Beyond the “centraledge” structure centered on hegemony balance thinking, establishing a “ringtocenter” structure with members as the core of joint construction and sharing, realizing the concept construction of identity cognition transformation, and promoting the system construction of institutional change and determining the path of development, is the choice of the era for building a community of human destiny.
