歷年來台灣地區的發展,尤其在經濟與社會建設而言,基本上均強調是遵循民生主義建設指針所獲得的。其實,歷經了科技快速發展、政黨輪替、社會結構鉅變等現況,所謂的民生主義有無時代的見解?中山思想是否仍存在著對社會整體建設與發展的重要價值取向?國家與經濟(市場)、社會之間的關係有無新的互動與重大影響?當前資訊科技,尤其是網際網路的發展,影響社會的層面相當深遠;而台灣社會的出生率日益下降與壽命延長,形成了人口老化,此一社會人口結構轉變是相當急劇的,其所呈現的意義,更突顯出老人問題將造成社會上極為重要與迫切的問題點。
本文試圖就當前老人照顧的建構,結合資訊科技的現代性,以及中山思想的社會建設理念,來考察其間社會變遷與理論指導的關係。因此,在理論部分,處理的內容包括了資訊與社會、資訊與老人,以及中山思想的社會政策指導等部分。就老人照顧與資訊科技之現行建構情形而言,主要分為遠距醫療、遠距監測,以及聰明屋等三個部分加以介紹。就中山思想而言,國家角色的界定、民生主義之福利措施的主張,均為重要的相關理念。
簡言之,在現代社會中意欲建立「大有為」的政府已愈來愈困難,然而確立國家責任、保障社會福利服務對象、因應新興科技發展並妥適規劃、透過合宜的財富重分配機制等等重要的國家施政目標,仍是中山先生所強調的,也與當前人民期待一致。回顧中山思想及其看法時,應避免拘泥於過去所設計的制度,而應強化整體福國利民的原則,以及對普世價值的堅持,建構出配合科技與社會快速的發展的現代制度,以確立國家政策的正確方針。
In the history of Taiwan development, the economic and social policy mainly depends on the principle of the people's livelihood. When the principle meets the change of the world, can it develop new direction in contemporary world such as the great transition of technology, social structure? As we know, currently the development of information technology is very fast and deeply impacts the society on one side. And the proportion of the aging population in Taiwan rise rapidly and the government must face on it heavily on the other side. The connection of the two issues will bring the new social development. This paper will present the related theories and the practical applies.
The role of the state is important in the thought of Dr. Sun yat-sen. This concept is very close to the welfare state. After so many years, welfare state regimes change lots of social welfare policies, therefore the all-round government is very hard to achieve in present days. But we should understand that the ideology of Sunology still match the main goals of the national policies of modern times. It concludes the duty of the state, the protection of the minority, correct policy about the newly technology, the mechanism of the re-distribution, etc.
The social change will keep on going and bring so many different features. The state must face on it and construct the intact policy. Sunology can be the important principle of the national policy, not just rigidly on the design of Dr. Sun in the past.
