摘要
以工代赈是一种缘起于救灾防灾的扶贫济困制度安排。这一制度设计的思想基础在于,在向急需救济的劳动者及其家庭提供援助的同时,必须防止福利依赖和劳动力市场扭曲。政府或民间组织筹集物质资源,投资于公共工程建设,专门吸纳有劳动能力的灾民或贫困群体参加。这就既为社会创造财富,又为工程建设者提供短期就业,从而促使其发挥个人潜力获取收入。以工代赈萌芽于先秦,兴起于北宋,成熟于清代。民国时期,非政府组织为其注入国外的现代基金与工程管理方法。在当今中国,以工代赈的理论、政策和实践拓展到减贫与发展领域。
"Yigong-daizhen"is an institutional arrangement originated from disaster relief and prevention.The institutional design of"Yigong-daizhen"is established on the thought to deliver the aids to the labors and their families with urgent needs while avoiding welfare dependency and labor market distortion.It serves for poverty alleviation in a way that governments or civil societies invest in the public works and employ the poor labor from the disaster affected.Based on the public works investment,the assets are created for the society while the poor get the short-term jobs and earnings with their own effort."Yigong-daizhen"was initiated during the Pre-Qin period and boomed in the earlier Song Dynasty."Yigong-daizhen"was then further institutionalized in Qing Dynasty.During the period of the Republic of China in Chinese Mainland,the nongovernment organizations introduced the modernized approaches from abroad into the funds and projects management of the"Yigong-daizhen"program.The theories,policies and practices of"Yigong-daizhen"have been extended and well applied to the poverty reduction and sustainable development programs in present China.
