摘要: 欧债危机是欧洲人口结构与经济结构、福利结构、政治结构之间的系统性失衡。在"低生育率陷阱"中,高度的老龄化和沉重的抚养比从根本上撼动了福利国家的人口基础,导致经济低迷和债台高筑,并使得人口结构性变化的影响从经济领域扩展至社会和政治层面。欧债危机对于同样处在人口、经济和社会的结构性变化时期的中国而言是一个警示。在人口老龄化、抚养比提高、劳动年龄人口规模和比重下降、经济增长减速和面临中等收入陷阱威胁、社会转型和社会利益关系格局重构等多重挑战下,中国应该汲取欧债危机的教训,保持人口结构的生产性与消费性的长期均衡,加大人力资本投资和建立具有弹性的劳动力市场,建立激励型并适应未来人口结构变化的社会保障制度。
