    XIE Jianshe
    SOCIAL WORK AND MANAGEMENT, 2012, 12 (2): 13-18. 
    Abstract    HTML ( ) PDF (1065KB) ( 2685 )
    With the rapid development of economy and society, the governmental payment for social work services focusing on the livelihood of the people has also aroused widespread concern of the local government. Since the community residents’ demands for service are different, community social work services must be timely, targeted, orderly and effective, and satisfy the needs of each resident. By taking Guangzhou as an example, we try to explore a new urban community work pattern consistent with the social and economic development, that is, a work pattern based on the street comprehensive service center, depending on organizations for community service, spreading throughout households, and reflecting the local characteristics.

    ZHOU Jinge, YANG Guoqing
    SOCIAL WORK AND MANAGEMENT, 2012, 12 (2): 45-49. 
    Abstract    HTML ( ) PDF (259KB) ( 2494 )
    This paper analyzes not only the relationship between CPI and commercial housing vacancy rate (CHVR) in China according to the statistics of 19952010, but also the granger causality between current CHVR and CPI. Through the impulse response analysis, it analyzes the impulse response features between CHVR and CPI. The result of the granger causality test shows that CPI has a significant and reliable oneway impact on CHVR in China. The result of the impulse response analysis shows that CPI has a far greater influence on CHVR than vice versa. These research results show that the influence of CPI on CHVR is oneway, namely, the increase of CPI will result in the rise of CHVR.

    SOCIAL WORK AND MANAGEMENT, 2012, 12 (2): 50-53. 
    Abstract    HTML ( ) PDF (395KB) ( 2630 )
    In order to further explore the income distribution among urban residents in Guangdong Province, this article researches the issue from a new angle by adopting the Theorem of exhausted distribution and combining it with the spread CobbDouglas production function. The results show that once social wealth is allocated by marginal product of elements involved in the social production, unequal elements of production owned by urban residents will contribute to income inequality; under the spontaneous distribution of the market, the income gap among urban residents in Guangdong Province will be wider.

    Abstract    HTML ( ) PDF (537KB) ( 2447 )
    Longing for harmony and a harmonious world is not unique to China but universal to mankind.

Doha Ministerial Declaration manifests the deeper development of the concept of harmony of WTO, and makes clear that as the most important and effective current international economic rules, WTO system makes a point of the final pursuit of the free, equal, orderly and harmonious development of world economy.

    From National Degree to University Degree: Trends in the Transformation of Chinese Degree System
    ZHU Ping, ZHAO Qiang
    SOCIAL WORK AND MANAGEMENT, 2012, 12 (2): 71-75. 
    Abstract    HTML ( ) PDF (413KB) ( 2545 )
    The present Chinese national degree system stresses centralization rather than decentralization of power; emphasizes management over academic practice; focuses more on utilitarian interests than rational development; resorts to authoritative control with neglect of free inquiry; and relies more on intuition than postulation. Such a degree system design can neither meet the development of contemporary universities nor is consistent with the status quo of higher education after the implementation of the reform and openingup policy for 30 years. The transformation from national degree to university degree may be an ideal choice.

    A Review of Daniel Defoe’s Thought of Insurance Mutual Benefit
    TAN Lei
    SOCIAL WORK AND MANAGEMENT, 2012, 12 (2): 76-80. 
    Abstract    HTML ( ) PDF (450KB) ( 2707 )
    This article aims to introduce Daniel Defoe’s social welfare thought typified by insurance mutual benefit. In order to prevent the poverty and defuse the risk of life, Daniel Defoe suggested establishing the programs of mutual benefit association and pension bureau among such special groups as sailors and women, as well as ordinary laborers. He elaborated the concept, principles, operating mechanism and functions of the association and the bureau. The present paper believes that Defoe’s social welfare thought has three features: the accurate forecast of the social issues, the advanced nature of the ideas and the feasibility of the plans. However, there are shortcomings in his thought. For example, the nature of his insurance is unknown, the plan lacks stability, and his thought has a strong sense of idealism. The author believes that, in view of the social characteristics on the eve of the industrial revolution, such insurance thought aiming at helping each other is worthy of affirmation for its taking the human’s wellbeing as a duty.
