(二)研究方法和主要观点 在研究过程中,本文以唯物辩证法和唯物历史观为指导,综合运用马克思 互互 论文提要主义政治经济学、西方古典和当代经济理论等来分析问题,在研究方法上力求突出四个特点:一是注意把国外的先进经验同我国具体国情相结合,对我国今后的社会保障模式的选择和各项制度的建立与完善作出较为垛入的探讨和设计;二是研究体系上有所创新,不搞面面俱到,而是重点围绕社会保障制度创新的几个重要问题,如扩大保障覆盖面、开征社会保障税、建立 The basic task of socialism is to develop productivity and constantly satisfy the physical and the spiritual needs daily on the increase of the people, which include the need in social security. Today, we are trying our best to develop socialist market economy. Under this situation, strengthening the reform and the foundation of the social security system becomes more important; it is directly related to the economic development and social stabilization. However, the social security system faces a serial of problems, which include that the theory lags behind practice; and that the guiding principle is shortsighted with the policy un-operable. Those problems have cumbered the economic progress, the reform of the institution and the social development,arousing the concern of the economists and politicians. Under the instruction of the tutor, the author have research those questions with the help of personal career facility for a few years. The viewpoint put forward in the article are all on the author"s own responsibility.1. The purpose of the topicFirstly, the reform of social security system is an important step in the foundation and the perfection of socialist economic system. The final aim of economical system reform is to build the socialist market economy system. And the social security system is the foundation and the guarantee of its function. Market economy is a kind of system that allocates the social resource by the market. It is realized by competition. Under the rule of competition, it is inevitable that certain companies are washed out and certain employee lost their jobs and can"t make a living. Market economy system can"t provide security automatically,so the government is to build up a social security system to guarantee the basic living standard for all persons. By this way, government can provide a kind of safeguardVIfor the market economy and remedy the faults caused by the market. It is just the joint that the government function and the market mechanism meet. During the past years, the government function is not clear. The government still takes on a lot of jobs that the market can do better, while lets aside some functions that it should takes under the situation of market economy. Social security is one of the functions that are ignored by the government. It has caused some social problem. Compared with developed countries, the unemployment rate in China isn"t high, but which has aroused political concerned. The primary reason is that the social security function is unfit with the economy. So that once the employees are lay off, they are due to without income or the social support. Accordingly the society becomes unstable. In a sense, it has become an obstacle that can cumber the development of the market economy system.Secondly, social security can guarantee the reform of the state-owned enterprises. The reform of the state-owned enterprises is an important step in the reform of the city economy system. During the reform, we face a big obstacle formed in the planed economy system that we can"t get across. For one thing, the state-owned enterprises take the task of the whole-procedurde supporting of the employee. Thus, those enterprises can"t compete fair with other enterprises. For the other, the unemployed man and the security for them have become a big problem that can"t be tacked easily. Along with the development of the reform, this problem has become more remarkable. It even effects the reform decision that the government and the enterprises have made. So that, if we want to set up the modern enterprises system, the most important step is to quicken the process of the social security reform and take over the security burden from the enterprises.Thirdly, the social security system is an important measure that makes the society stable and makes the economy prosperity. From the view of macro-economy, social security system has been an important content hi the economy management for its characteristics. Although it can"t change GNP, it does change the economy structu
