发展中国家的正规社会保障长期以来一直以正规经济部门的雇员为中心。大多数人被排除在外。自2000年代以来,国际组织一直呼吁扩大社会保障的覆盖面。本文分析了最近的战略,扩大社会保障,社会现金转移(SCT)的穷人。本文追溯了作为一个全球性问题的SCT的兴起,然后描述和分类SCT在全球南方,并探讨了“适当性”(J. Midgley)的SCT在发展的背景下。我们发现,SCT已蔓延到世界所有地区,SCT涵盖了高度多样化的机构景观。在SCT的早期阶段,关于适当性的证据尚不确定。到目前为止,为所有人提供社会保障的呼吁在很大程度上是“脱钩的”(J.W. #24453;发展中国家的现实。但是,“SCT”的语义为全球社会政策中的共识和冲突开辟了一个新的竞技场。
Formal social security in developing countries has long been centred on employees in the formal sector of the economy. The majority of the population has been excluded. Since the 2000s international organizations have called for extending the coverage of social security. This article analyses a recent strategy of extending social security, social cash transfers (SCT) to the poor. The article traces the rise of SCT as a global issue, then describes and classifies SCT in the global South, and inquires into the `appropriateness' (J. Midgley) of SCT in a development context. We find that SCT have spread to all world regions and that SCT covers a highly diverse institutional landscape. Evidence on appropriateness is inconclusive at this early stage of SCT. As yet, the call for social security for all is largely `decoupled' (J.W. Meyer) from the realities of developing countries. But the semantics of `SCT' has opened up a new arena of consensus and conflict in global social policy.
