Research on Mutual-supporting Pension in Rural China with the AGIL Model

摘要

This research responds to the problems of declining family care function, limited government carrying capacity, low enthusiasm of the rural elderly and rigidity of the current mutual-supporting pension model, and explores a new path of mutual-supporting pension in rural areas while helping to relieve the pressure of the aged in villages This study applies the AGIL model to analyze the problem of mutual-supporting pension in rural China, which consists of adapting social environment (A), setting the goal (G), integrating social resources (I) to achieve the goal, and maintaining the potential model of this path (L). The result of the research shows that governments at all levels and social groups should engage in developing the rural mutual-supporting pension model and also a volunteer mechanism should be established so that our country can develop the mutual-supporting pension system through co-construction and co-governance; and construct a well-disciplined and well-restrained mutual-supporting pension system.
