中国の宗族社会における高齢者の現状と課題(その1) : 東南地方の農村高齢者の生活実態調査を通して  [in Japanese] The Present Conditions and a Problem of a Senior Citizen in Chinese Family Society (The 1) : Through Life Fact-finding of a Farm Village Senior Citizen of a Southeast District(Social Welfare)  [in Japanese]

近年、中国における農村地域の宗族に関する研究がさまざまな分野で進んでいる。その要因の1つは、経済と社会の転換期にある中国の三農(農業・農民・農村)問題に対する関心が急速に高まってきたことである。三農の中で、特に農民の貧困問題が注目されている。しかしながら、今までの研究業績では、農村生活の貧困、年金、医療・保健などを単に所得保障との関連で論じるものが多く、ソーシャルワークの視点で村落(コミュニティ)を拠点に社会保障・社会福祉(社会的セーフティネット)を推進していく考えはほとんどない。本研究はそれらのことを念頭に置きながら、日本を始め、欧米諸国の先行研究を視野に入れて検討する。その上で、異なるそれぞれの農村地域の歴史、伝統文化、社会環境など具体的な状況に応じて、村民(宗族)自治のあり方を実証性に基づき探求したい。そのため本研究調査は、宗族社会における高齢者の生活現状と課題を明らかにし、宗族社会の変容が高齢者の日常生活に与える影響とその課題を検討することを目的とした。

In late years a study about a family of a farm village area in China advances in various fields. One of the factors is that economy and interest for the issue of Chinese agriculture in flatland, bogland and a mountaneous region in a social turning point rose rapidly. In agriculture in flatland, bogland and a mountaneous region, the issue of poverty of a farmer in particular attracts attention. However, by conventional study achievements, as for the thought that merely promotes social security/social welfare (social safety net) in a viewpoint of a social work a lot of things it-affiliated, to lecture on with secured social welfare payment for poverty of farm village life, a pension, medical care/health in a foothold in a village, it is rare. This study founds Japan while taking them into consideration and I put a precedent study of American and European countries in a field of vision and examine. With that in mind, it is based on proof characteristics and, depending on the concrete situation such as the different each farm village local history, traditional culture, social environment, wants to search an ideal method of villager (a family) self-government. Therefore I clarified the life present conditions and a problem of a senior citizen in family society, and this study investigation was aimed at examining influence and the problem that transformation of family society gave everyday life of a senior citizen.
