| Sumario: | The change in the population age structure poses challenges to Chinese-style modernization. Achieving the high-quality development of elderly care services is a necessary measure for promoting modernization with a huge population scale and exploring a path of actively responding to population aging with Chinese characteristics. Existing studies have fully and deeply explored the connotation and path of high-quality development of elderly care services. However, there is a lack of the current situation and empirical measurement in this regard. In particular, the issue of its spatial imbalance has not been given attention yet. This paper introduces the perspective of spatial justice, and believes that the high-quality development of elderly care services not only includes quantity growth but also quality improvement. And an evaluation system is constructed from three dimensions: sufficient service, urban-rural balance, and structural optimization. The improved vertical and horizontal scatter degree method is used to measure the level of high-quality development of elderly care services in China from 2014 to 2021, and the Dagum Gini coefficient is used to analyze its spatial imbalance. The results show that during the inspection period, the high-quality development level of elderly care services in China has steadily improved, showing an overall spatial characteristic of "high in the east and low in the west", but without spatial clustering: there is a significant spatial imbalance in the high-quality development of elderly care services in China. mainly due to regional disparities rather than inter regional disparities; the overall regional gap shows a trend of first decreasing and then increasing, but the overall spatial imbalance has decreased. The innovation of this paper lies in the following aspects. In the construction of the indicator system, compared with the existing studies that mainly focus on the indicators of "quantity" of elderly services, this paper combines the idea of spatial justice and evaluates the service adequacy and quality in three aspects: service adequacy, urban-rural balance, and structural optimization. In terms of research methodology, this paper fully considers the inadequacy of common evaluation methods in dealing with panel data and use the vertical and horizontal scatter degree method combined with the entropy value method to scientifically determine the weights. so as to present the tendency of changes in the cross-section data over time. In terms of the application of the results, instead of simply assessing the level of high-quality development, this paper further analyses the spatial imbalance and the evolutionary trends to point out the direction for promoting the high-quality development of China's elderly services. This paper reveals the connotation of spatial justice in the high-quality development of elderly care services and index system constructed by us provides a reference for the macro evaluation of elderly care services. This paper also presents the trend of the level of high-quality development of elderly services and its spatial imbalance in China. which provides empirical evidence and decision-making guidance for China to narrow regional differences and promote the high-quality development of elderly services. 养老服务高质量发展是推进人口规模巨大的现代化、探索中国特色积极应对人口老龄化道路的应然之举。通过文献回顾与内涵梳理, 引入空间正义视角, 从服务充分、城乡均衡、结构优化三个维度构建评价体系, 使用改进后的纵横向拉开档次法测度2014-2021年中国养老服务高质量发展水平, 并使用Dagum基尼系数对其空间非均衡性进行分析。结果表明:考察期内中国养老服务高质量发展水平稳步提升, 整体呈现“东高西低”的空间特征但并无空间聚集性, 即区域差距并不分明; 中国养老服务高质量发展水平存在较大的空间非均衡性, 主要来源于地区内差距而非地区间差距; 总体地区差距呈现先下降后上升的趋势, 但整体上空间非均衡性有所降低。由此提出兼顾养老服务发展的数量与质量, 满足老年人日益提升的需求总量与需求层次; 改善区域内与区域间养老服务高质量发展的非均衡性, 推进空间正义; 制定适应本地情形的发展规划, 促进地方政府在养老服务高质量发展过程中发挥作为等改善养老服务空间非均衡格局、促进养老服务高质量发展的政策建议。 |
