The aim of this book is to draw attention to two neglected areas in the growing body of research on welfare in China: subnational variation and the changing mix of state and non-state provision. The contributors to this volume highlight the local, or sub-national, variation that lies behind broad national policies and programmes that is growing from divergent local government and non-state activities. This approach is particularly relevant to understanding welfare provision in China because national state programmes are so often organised by local governments in line with the specifics of their economic and social development, while at the same time that social and economic development itself is independently creating differential conditions for non-state (family, business and third sector) provision.
