一场发端于美国、进而迅速向全球蔓延的国际金融危机对我国经济发展造成了极为严重的负面影响。为应对这一危机,党中央、国务院不仅迅速出台了一系列经济刺激计划,而且作出了大幅度提高社会福利水平的战略部署。本文旨在论证,大幅度提高社会福利水平是基于理论思考、历史经验与现实问题的科学、合理、有效的应对举措,落实这一重要举措,还有很多文章可做。 An international financial crisis that originated in the United States and then spread to the world rapidly has had a very serious negative impact on our economic development. In response to this crisis, the Central Party Committee and the State Council not only promptly issued a series of economic stimulus plans, but also made strategic arrangements for drastically raising the level of social welfare. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate that a substantial increase in the level of social welfare is a scientific, reasonable and effective response to theoretical considerations, historical experience and practical problems. To implement this important measure, there are still many articles to do.
