| Disability is a natural phenomenon that has existed throughout of all ages,and the existence of the disabled is even more inevitable.By the end of 2018,the total number of disabled persons in China exceeded 85 million,among which 3,566,1962 were certified disabled persons,making China a large country with a large population of disabled people.Since the reform and opening up,the disadvantaged groups in society,especially the disabled,their livelihood is terrible,have long borne the abnormally high cost in the period of social transformation."Disabled persons are equal members of our human family.We should respect and protect their human rights and personal dignity,so that they can participate in social life on an equal footing and enjoy the fruits of material and spiritual progress." As a member of our human family,the quality of life and livelihood of the disabled deserve our attention.Protecting the rights and interests of disabled persons and promoting their all-round development and common prosperity is an important part of the Chinese Dream,which is about completing the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects,achieving the great victory of socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era,and realizing the great renewal of the Chinese nation.The research on sustainable livelihood of the disabled is a combination of the research on the disabled and the research on sustainable livelihood.It is a research direction from theoretical analysis to practical application,and also provides a new theoretical analysis framework and research direction for the disabled.During the research on sustainable livelihood of disabled persons,the research on livelihood capital of disabled persons involves many important issues,such as education,employment,rehabilitation,social security,social welfare,etc.,and is one of the core contents of the research on sustainable livelihood of disabled persons.From the research sense,the livelihood capital research of disabled persons belongs to the cross research category of the research on disabled persons and sustainable livelihood research from the perspective of theoretical and academic,which is in line with the crossover research direction from theoretical analysis to practical analysis.Meanwhile,it can also open up a new research horizon for the research on disabled persons.At the same time,the study on the livelihood capital of the disabled in Sichuan Province can provide new cases and experience for the study on sustainable livelihood and the study on the disabled.From the practical sense,the formation of each vulnerable group has its special causes.As a special vulnerable group,the livelihood capital problem of the disabled should be solved by making comprehensive livelihood capital solutions according to its own situation.Sichuan Province is a populous province also has a large number of disabled.There are both developed modern cities and poor mountainous areas in Sichuan Province,with obvious differences in natural conditions and social and economic development.The 2008 Wenchuan earthquake and 2012 Ya ’an Lushan earthquake disabled a large number of people,and challenges the livelihood capital construction of the disabled in Sichuan Province.As Sichuan Province is located in the western part of China,so its economic and social development level is inferior to the developed areas in the eastern part of China,and its livelihood capital construction of the disabled also is not as good as the developed areas in the eastern coastal area.The study on the livelihood capital of the disabled in Sichuan Province can provide a theoretical basis for formulating appropriate livelihood strategies for the disabled,and also establishing and perfecting the social security system for the disabled in Sichuan Province.At the same time,it can also provide a certain basis for the national development of livelihood capital guarantee strategy for the disabled.From the humanistic sense,the disabled will exist in the human society for a long time from the past to the present and even to the future.As a part of the main body of social activities,the degree of social participation and the ability of independent development of the disabled group is an important indicator to examine the degree of social development.It is also of great significance to concern for,awareness of and acceptance of disabled persons as members of society in promoting social equity and justice.This paper studies the livelihood capital of the disabled from Sichuan province and the whole country,focusing on the livelihood capital of the disabled. Based on the descriptive research of the disabled persons livelihood capital of sichuan province,from sichuan province and the national,using the entropy method,TOPSIS model and spatial autocorrelation analysis,has quantitative research each areas of sichuan province and other provinces in the whole nation of the disabled persons livelihood capital.And using the spatial econometric model from two dimensions of global and local livelihood capital spatial distribution for the disabled,and measured the disabled persons livelihood capital of sichuan province level position in the whole country.On this basis,this paper makes a comparative study of these issues,including Sichuan Province and the provinces nationwide domain,our country and western developed countries in the social economic development level,development concept for the disabled,the disabled security system design,related government management,undertakings for disabled persons social participation,and the capability of the disabled family and personal development gap analysis problems of disabled people livelihood capital.Finally,it puts forward some countermeasures and suggestions to improve the livelihood capital level of disabled persons.This paper is divided into seven chapters.The first chapter is the introduction.It firstly introduces the background of the topic and the significance of the research,and points out the significance of studying the livelihood capital status of the disabled for realizing the comprehensive modernization of Chinese society and promoting the research theory of the disabled and sustainable livelihood.Secondly,it defines the core concept,clarifies the concept of the disabled and livelihood capital,and defines the five types of livelihood capital for the disabled.The research method of this paper including literature research,empirical research,model analysis and comparative analysis.Also introduces the research content and innovation of this paper,and proposes that the innovation of this paper lies in the quantitative research of livelihood capital conducted across disciplines and targeted at specific groups.Finally,the research framework and technical path of this paper are introduced.The second chapter is the theoretical basis and literature review.It introduces these theories including human rights protection for the disabled,the social security for the disabled,the sustainable livelihood,the multiple welfarism and the targeted poverty alleviation.The literature review including the research status of livelihood capital and sustainable livelihood capital at home and abroad in detail,and also sorts out the research literature of livelihood capital and sustainable livelihood of disabled persons.Literature research results that although the livelihood capital,sustainable livelihoods and research for the disabled has made a lot of research results at home and abroad,and there are many mature theories.But the study under the framework of the disabled problem in livelihood capital is less,the definition of disabled persons livelihood capital and build the evaluation system is not perfect.The third chapter is a descriptive analysis of the status of the disabled and their livelihood capital in Sichuan Province.The analysis shows that Sichuan Province has invested a lot of resources to improve the livelihood capital status of the disabled.However,due to the huge disabled population base in Sichuan Province,the disabled have limited resources per capita,which leads to the overall lack of livelihood capital status and quality of the disabled in Sichuan Province.The fourth chapter is the evaluation and measurement of the livelihood capital of the disabled in Sichuan Province.Constructing the livelihood capital evaluation index system for the disabled through entropy method and the TOPSIS model,and respectively measured the livelihood capital level of disabled persons in each areas of Sichuan Province and the whole country in 2018.On this basis,GIS spatial analysis technology is used to analyze the spatial distribution characteristics of livelihood capital of disabled persons in Sichuan Province from global and local dimensions,and compared with the national livelihood capital index of disabled persons in the whole country.The results show that the livelihood capital of the disabled is deficient,and the allocation of each livelihood capital is relatively balanced.The livelihood capital index of disabled persons in Sichuan Province ranks low in the whole country,and that leads to the conclusion that the livelihood capital of disabled persons is related to the spatial pattern.The fifth chapter analyzes the problems of livelihood capital of the disabled from six aspects,including the development of the concept of the disabled,the design of the top-level system for the disabled,the level of government management and service for the disabled,the social assistance for disabled persons,the family support for the disabled and the ability of personal development of the disabled.The sixth chapter is put forward the countermeasure and the suggestion of enhance the level of livelihood capital for the disabled.The problem including six aspects:development concept for the disabled to build new stage of development,improve the state of undertakings for disabled persons of the top-level design,strengthening the system construction and implementation in the work for the disabled,to enhance social undertakings for disabled persons,disabled family support for the livelihood of disabled persons,and fully support the disabled improve the survival and development of personal ability.The last chapter is the conclusion and prospect.The conclusion of this paper is that:1.The condition of the livelihood capital of the disabled,from the perspective of ensuring the basic life of the disabled,has been basically resolved with the continuous advancement of the cause of the disabled in China.However,in terms of supporting the disabled to achieve their development goals,the livelihood capital of the disabled still has the characteristics of inadequate overall.Combined with the calculation of the livelihood capital of the disabled and the research on the problems existing in the livelihood capital of the disabled,the current state of the livelihood capital of the disabled in China has been able to meet the basic survival need.But on the other hand,the four types of livelihood capital are still relatively lacking,and the total amount of capital is also relatively scarce.Such a livelihood capital situation cannot support the disabled to further pursue a better life and achieve personal development goals.2.The livelihood capital of disabled persons is generally deficient,and the allocation of livelihood capital among them is reasonable.Through Sichuan province and the national dimensions,using entropy method and TOPSIS model to carry out empirical measurement of the livelihood capital of the disabled.Conclusion It is found that the livelihood capital of the disabled is in a high state of lack.In addition,human capital,social capital,material capital and financial capital are all in a state of high deficiency,and the difference of livelihood capital deficiency is small.The livelihood capital allocation of the disabled
