East Asia is at the heart of the global economic transformation, and the countries of the region are witnessing rapidly changing labour markets, alongside the pressure to cut production costs and lower taxes in order to become successful 'competition states'. These changes have resulted in increased welfare demands which governments, organizations and agencies across the region have had to address.
This book examines welfare regimes in the Greater China region, encompassing mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. In so doing, it explores the ways in which the rapid growth and internationalisation of the economy across Greater China is presenting new social policy challenges that governments, social welfare organizations and agencies in the region are having to respond to. Rather than simply describing and categorising welfare systems, the contributors to this volume add to our understanding of how one of the major economic transformations of the contemporary era in East Asia is shaping welfare provision in the region. In turn, in this context of economic change, they examine the new strategies and measures that have been adopted in order to reduce the heavy burden on the state in terms of welfare provision, whilst also attempting to diversify funding and provision sources to meet the pressing welfare needs.
Based upon extensive fieldwork by leading scholars of social policy, this book will appeal to students and scholars of Asian social policy, comparative development and social policy, social welfare and Chinese studies.

Описание: This is the story of Harry the show dog. Since he was 6 months old, he learned how to become a professionally trained show dog, run gracefully in the ring with a professional handler, and how to show well to the judge in the ring. He traveled across many states every weekend to compete and become a champion show dog at a very early age. He was winning so often that he was getting special bubble baths and his picture taken every weekend. His dream was to go to the biggest show in NYC, The Westminster Kennel Club in NYC at the largest sports arena, that was televised every year. The story ends with a special learning moment for children; that it's okay if things don't always go as planned. While winning and losing will come up in life, it's important to celebrate life's joys and also manage life's difficult moments. It's important to praise the effort instead of the final result.
