项目摘要

his research aimed at sociologically investigating the normatively basic framework in terms of publicness and communality for ageing society. The main accomplishments of the four years research are as follows.1.Concerning with the task to explore normative theory of sociology, the idea of public sociology was proposed as a developmental form of theoretical sociology. 2.It was shown that the neutrality thesis and the constraints on individuals' conception of good life in liberalism are incompatible. 3.Various misunderstandings on Rawls' A Theory of Justice and his difference principle are corrected. 4.Sociological theory of liberty is explored. 5.Concerning with the problems of ageing society, the validity of poplar opinions about the relationship between decreasing fertility and various gender-family factors was critically and empirically examined. 6.The population structure at the peak of ageing process was estimated. 7.Several conditions of sustainable pension system were specified ; (1)The primary condition is to make up a relative pension level, which is publicly acceptable, in comparison with income levels of those in active labor force ; (2)The time when the balance sheet of the pension system reformed in 2004 would become the most seriously in danger will be between years 2040 and 2060 ; (3)The macro economic slide adjustment would relieve the danger, but with the risk of decreasing the relative pension level ; (4)So, the adjustment should be used at the minimum level which is needed to keep the budgetary balance of pension system.

他的研究旨在从社会学角度探讨老龄化社会公共性和社区性方面的规范性基本框架。四年来的主要研究成果如下： 1.围绕探索社会学规范理论的任务，提出了公共社会学的思想，作为理论社会学的发展形式。 2.结果表明，中立论点与自由主义对个人美好生活观的约束是不相容的。 3.纠正了对罗尔斯《正义论》及其差别原则的各种误解。 4.探索自由的社会学理论。 5.针对老龄化社会问题，对生育率下降与各种性别家庭因素之间关系的流行观点的有效性进行了批判性和实证检验。 6.估算了老龄化高峰期的人口结构。 7.明确了可持续养老金制度的几个条件； (一)首要条件是与活跃劳动力的收入水平相比，形成一个公众可以接受的相对养老金水平；（2）2004年养老金制度改革后的资产负债表面临最严重危险的时期是2040年至2060年；（3）宏观经济下滑调整会缓解危险，但存在相对养老金水平下降的风险； (4)因此，调整应在维持养老金制度预算平衡所需的最低水平上进行。
