Features: The "Contemporary Social Security System Research Series" was jointly completed by nearly 100 experts and scholars from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the General Logistics Department of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, relevant research institutions, universities, and other organizations over a period of three years. The series consists of 12 original works and 6 translations. Each volume employs normative and empirical analysis methods to systematically elaborate on various foreign social security theories and systems, analyzes the formation, evolution, historical roles, challenges, and reform trends of social security models in countries and regions with representative significance worldwide, and explores the construction and improvement of China's social security system. The six translated works are all classic monographs in the field of foreign welfare state theory. The series provides valuable reference for government policy research departments and practitioners, and can also serve as teaching materials for postgraduate and undergraduate students in relevant research institutions and universities. By reviewing and summarizing the history of social security in the Chinese military, this book not only grounds theoretical and institutional innovation in China's national conditions and military realities but also reflects the consistency between history and logic, making the work more scientific and necessary. Globally, countries have established military personnel security systems to safeguard their highest interests. The main characteristics of military personnel security systems in various countries are: (1) The integration of military personnel insurance with military welfare and pensions; the combination of military personnel insurance with commercial insurance; and the linkage of military personnel insurance with social security. (2) All programs and standards of military social security are stipulated by national laws, ensuring that the rights and benefits of military personnel security are implemented throughout society through state coercion. (3) The content of military social security tends to be monetized. This trend not only simplifies management procedures but also facilitates implementation and oversight. This book dedicates a specific section to a detailed evaluation of military social security systems in major countries worldwide, enabling theoretical and institutional innovation to better adhere to the general principles of military social security work through comparative research.
