emphasized is that this article chose AnHui province as the research object,but the author selected HeFei and LuAn for researching in AnHui province.Mainly for two reasons:firstly,from the policy implementation,the author found that HeFei and LuAn must be carried out Regulations on Guaranteeing Minimum Subsistence in AnHui province.However,based on geographical differences,the assistance system from place to place need to according to local conditions to enact the minimum subsistence guarantee systems which will be suitable for the regions.For example,Rules for implementation on
