In the Social Transformation Period of our country, protecting the social vulnerable groups is increasingly becoming one of the public problems attended by the public. It has very important value to reflect on the above problem theoretically. Vulnerable groups is that the basic rights can not be achieved, need be protected by the Government .The theoretical framework chosen three variables: citizenship,legitimacy and Government capacity,, citizenship proves that the Government responsibility 's "obligations"; legitimacy provide the possibility of the Government responsibility; Government capacity provide Reality of the Government responsibility.It is duty-bound for the government to protect social vulnerable groups, because these men are also the citizens in modern State. Through providing social vulnerable groups with relevant protection, the government can gain the support and trust of the social public in return, and reduce the cost of management. To protect weak groups needs not only the public responsibilitytaken by the government but also the ability of government to exert its role.

Certainly, protecting weak groups is also the core theme of realize human rights and defend human dignity. As far as the weak group in our country, their right to existence is being intimidated, the personal right to development is being tested, their right to health has been in erosion,and their right to education is being challenged, they only have little protection of labour rights.Protecting social vulnerable groups is the inherent request of improving governmental credit.
