| Summary: | Welfare rights are among the social rights enjoyed by citizens of modern states. The welfare rights of persons with disabilities, as particularly vulnerable persons, are of special concern. Two guideline documents, Opinions of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on Promoting the Development of Disabled Persons and The 13th Five-Year Plan of Promoting the Equalization of Basic Public Services, announce the establishment of a "social insurance" system and "public service," which outlines social welfare for disabled persons in China. This article argues that regulations on disability protections should be legislated soon, establishing welfare standards for the disabled, refining the current general rules concerned with the welfare of the disabled in the legal and political contexts, and forming a comprehensive program to address the needs of disabled persons in China. New regulations should open new institutional space for promoting the wellbeing of disabled persons. |
