养老体系健全发展，离不开“孝行”和“孝文化”的研究。随着社会转型和发展，孝行为已深刻转变，然而关于孝文化的现状和变迁，却缺乏系统的记录，科学的理论分析与精准的实证检验。本课题创造性的从“孝”文化的现状、影响因素、培育和传播机制，及政策启示入手，科学、深入、细致的挖掘个人孝行的动机，解析家庭、区域及国家层面孝文化的现状、成因和影响，考察相关社会保障体制的设置及绩效，探索新型养老模式的可行性和问题所在。研究内容主要由四部分组成，分别是孝文化的现状分析、影响孝文化的因素分析、孝文化影响经济社会发展的机制分析、孝文化变迁下养老体制改革的政策启示。不仅从微观底层设计上，提供与“孝行”相关的科学的理论分析、严谨的因果检验和创新的对策建议；也将“孝文化”首次纳入养老体制改革的分析框架中，从中观和宏观层面系统的把握经济、人文、社会的联动效应，为更好的推进养老和社会保障体制改革，提供创新思路和前沿方法。

The reform and development of Chinese social security system has become one of the central focuses of relevant academic field, significant government policy targets and central goals of current socioeconomic reform and development in China. Among all, the renovation of elder support system should not neglect the importance of actions and culture trends regarding “filial piety”. Although the “filial piety” culture dramatically changes in China, there are still limited studies which systematically records and explore the change and current status of “filial piety”, not to mention a formal microeconomic and macroeconomic study regarding this subject. Our project for the first time fills this blank. To be specific, we respectively explore the current status, influencing factors, broadcasting channels and its impact on socioeconomic conditions of “filial piety”, using formal economic framework and methods. For one hand, we provide a creative view and scientific theory, and enrich the field with empirical evidence and relevant policy advices; for the other hand, it incorporates “filial piety” into the development and reform of elder support system, in order to utilize the relevant policy design and policy evaluation.
