Since the 19 th CPC National Congress,it has been the top priority of the government to promote the smooth progress of targeted poverty alleviation work and ensure that the poor people together with the whole country enter the moderately prosperous society.In addition,the aging of population has become an important feature of the new normal.In this context,the medical needs of the vulnerable elderly population are greater,the proportion of medical expenditure of the elderly in China's medical expenditure keeps increasing,and the phenomenon of "poverty due to illness" and "poverty due to illness" of the elderly are frequent.The long-term low fertility rate,the rapid decline of mortality rate and the continuous extension of life expectancy make the elderly population into a rapidly expanding group of the poor.Therefore,advancing targeted poverty alleviation for the elderly and seeking a more scientific and reasonable governance system for the elderly poverty is an inevitable requirement for alleviating the poverty of the elderly and improving the living standards of the elderly population,but also an uphill battle for building a moderately prosperous society in all respects and realizing modernization.In this paper,on the basis of literature review and concept definition,based on the theory of welfare pluralism and western scholars such as Amartya Sen?Marx's theory of poverty,build the Chinese elderly poverty multidimensional subject research framework of collaborative governance,and based on the analysis of family endowment,dimensions of social capital of family,state,market and social subject the influence mechanism of elderly multidimensional poverty,finally proposed elderly poverty multi-main-body collaborative governance path selection.This paper mainly focuses on four main lines.First,it summarizes the basic background of the current study on elderly poverty in China and constructs the theoretical framework of this study.Second,based on the research framework,this paper empirically analyzes the influencing mechanism of family subject,country,market and social subject on multidimensional poverty of the elderly from the perspectives of family endowment and social capital,and theoretically and empirically validates the regulating effect of family endowment and social capital on the "vicious cycle of poverty" of the elderly.Thirdly,the international anti-poverty policies and their implications for China's anti-poverty policies were systematically analyzed from the examples of developed countries such as the United States and Japan and developing countries such as Brazil and India.Fourthly,based on the above research,the basic framework of multivariate and cooperative governance of elderly poverty in China is constructed at last,and policy recommendations are put forward.First of all,this paper systematically analyzes the basic background and research framework of the elderly poverty problem in China.Compared with western countries,China's aging population is generated under the typical background of "getting old before getting rich" and "getting old before getting ready",and there are significant group differences in the perspective of health,security and participation,which lays a hidden danger for the generation of elderly poverty.For a long time,the Chinese government has been the main undertaker of the treatment of elderly poverty.From the period of planned economy to the period of targeted poverty alleviation,the government has made continuous explorations and attempts to alleviate the problem of elderly poverty and made brilliant achievements.Based on the vulnerability characteristics of the elderly population trapped in poverty at the present stage and the problems existing in the process of poverty governance by single-dimensional subjects such as families and governments,this paper constructed a multi-dimensional governance framework for the study of poverty in the elderly,in order to provide theoretical reference basis for improving the governance of poverty in the elderly in China.Secondly,based on the research framework and from the perspectives of family endowment and social capital,this paper empirically analyzes the influencing mechanism of family subject,country,market and social subject on multidimensional poverty of the elderly,and theoretically and empirically verifies the regulating effect of family endowment and social capital on the "vicious cycle of poverty" of the elderly.Based on the research of scholars,this paper changes the family operation into the family endowment variable,and the country,market and society operation into the perspective of social capital.It empirically analyzes the benchmark results,the influencing mechanism of family endowment and social capital on the multidimensional poverty of the elderly,as well as the net effect of using the scoring tendency matching method.The heterogeneity test of the impact of family endowment and social capital on multidimensional poverty of the elderly was further analyzed,including urban-rural differences,gender differences and age differences.In addition,in view of the old "poverty cycle" problem,the paper first illustrates "the vicious cycle of poverty " the circle of economics principle,and analyzes the elderly " poverty cycle " of performance,causes and governance,finally through to the elderly multidimensional poverty economic poverty,poor health and spiritual poverty crosstab analysis,verified the family endowment and social capital regulation effect to the "the vicious cycle of poverty" for the elderly,from the empirical laid the groundwork for multivariate main body participating in elderly poor governance.Again,"stone of other mountains,can attack jade".The practices of the elderly poverty management abroad have important enlightening significance for the elderly poverty management in China.Based on this,the paper from the perspective of social insurance?social relief and legislation analyzes the elderly poor governance practices of developed countries such as United States and Japan,and from the macro level and micro level and effect of poverty reduction level analysis the elderly poor governance practices in developing countries such as Brazil and India,finally it is concluded that elderly poor governance practices abroad experience of enlightenment for China,including selecting the elderly poor governance mode suited to its national conditions and development strategy,improve the old-age social security system,development of domestic multiple subject to participate in the elderly poor governance practices and perfecting the legal system four aspects of the elderly.Finally,based on the above research,this paper constructed the multi-subject cooperative governance framework of elderly poverty in China,and put forward corresponding policy recommendations.At the present stage,there are a series of problems such as the limitation of the government's role,the plight of the family's participation in the governance of the elderly's poverty,and the lack of the overall institutional framework.In fact,the multi-subject participation in the anti-poverty governance of the elderly has the reality of mutual dependence and mutual transformation of resource allocation.Based on this,this paper constructs the "cooperation-complementation" relationship framework of co-governance of multiple subjects of poverty in the elderly,and defines the basic concepts and main responsibilities of each subject.Paper finally puts forward the policy Suggestions to perfect the elderly poor multi-main-body collaborative governance,mainly including building families poverty alleviation policy system,improve the level of the old economy and health care,exploration and development of commercial insurance for the elderly poor,introduce the social main body participating in elderly poor governance system and the linkage of the multiple subject to establish cooperative governance system.
