Building the socialist harmonious society has been written into the Party's 17th reports, which is the goal that Chinese people are striving for in the new period. The harmonious society is not a society of unification and no differences , but one in which the rights of vulnerable groups are fully protected. Now, there are a great number of vulnerable groups in China, and the situation of their rights protection needs the whole society's attention.Therefore, under the angle of harmonious society,the problem of vulnerable groups is becoming more important than ever.Since the reform and opening up, the mechnism changed, structure adjusted and society transformed, all these changes have made both great developments in economy and divisions of social class.It is unavoidable of the emergence of the social vulnerable groups.The groups mainly include the laid-off workers,migrant workers and rural laborors.They are at a disadvantage because of material poverty, psychological vulnerability and lack of economic, political and social opportunities in the community.The vulnerablity of social vulnerable groups is right vulnerablity in real terms. They can not dominate the rights distribution.Their rights are difficult to be achieved, easy to be damaged, and hard to be remedied.Therefore, the protection of social vulnerable groups should start with rights protcetion.As a way of protection, right has feasibility and superiority. In the process of building a harmonious society, the protection of social vulnerable groups is urgent. It is the developing trend of world human rights,the meaning of building a harmonious society and the need of safeguarding the country's political stability.China has always attached great importance to the protection of the rights of vulnerable groups, and it has made good endeavors in the protection of legislation and policies. But there are still some deficiencies, some of the basic rights of vulnerable groups such as the survival rights, equal rights, labour rights, and educational rights,etc. have not been effectively and fundamentally achieved,and need to be perfected.The protection of the rights of vulnerable groups is a systematic project, and it needs to be strengthened and perfected in many aspects. It is necessary to implement people-oriented principle, the principle of both equality and distinguished treatment, tilt- protected principle and the most effective principle.The meaures should include the following ones:1.Design the legal system, including the improvement of legislation,the judicial aid and the legal aid; 2.Strengthen the social guarantee system, including making the minimum livelihood guarantee system, social insurance system, house-protected system and the emergent relief system of natural disaster perfect;3.Build the administrative system and play the government's protection functions to the largest degree;4.Reconstruct the expression mechanism of interests,and make the expression channels of the social vulnerable groups unimpeded.In short, the protection of the rights of vulnerable groups is human's natural psychology and the embodiment of human's moral awareness. It is in line with the requirements of social justice and the law of human progress. But this is a gradual process,which can not be accomplished overnight.It needs great efforts and improvement all-round. Only the rights of vulnerable groups are fully protected,can the great goal of building a harmonious society be achieved.
