Social welfare production is fundamentally different from social welfare system. It is essential for promoting civilization and collective well-being. This model relies on the collective efforts of society, generating sustainable benefits for all.

The Origin of Our Public Welfare Projects:

Why has Yicheng Commonweal chosen to promote the cause of “social welfare production” in the advancement of civilization?

We deeply love this land and the people here. We consider this place our hometown and strive to recreate it as a paradise. We have established sections dedicated to civilization, public welfare, and faith. With our full attention, we ponder how to attain collective well-being and steer clear of disasters and suffering.

Through continuous reflection and writing, we have realized that the core of advancing human civilization lies in the concept and practice of “social welfare production”. Thus, we have introduced this idea of “social welfare production” to illuminate the path to future happiness for everyone. By doing so, we want to point out the direction for future well-being and pave the way for public welfare projects.

Social welfare production is the only path to continually advancing human civilization

As a social practice centered on creativity, social welfare production is not only the foundation for promoting human civilization but also the true source of human well-being. Unlike individual pursuits and the accumulation of personal profit, social welfare production emphasizes the collective effort of society as a whole. Through various innovative welfare production models, it enables all members to benefit from shared resources, thereby achieving collective happiness and social progress. This article will delve into the value and significance of social welfare production, revealing why it is the sole pathway to advancing civilization and enhancing human well-being.

  1. Social Welfare Production as an Innovative Gathering of Social Forces

The key to social welfare production lies in creatively bringing together social forces. In contrast to the “distribution” model of traditional welfare systems, social welfare production transforms welfare resources into a driving force for innovation. It encourages collaboration among businesses, non-profit organizations, and communities to jointly build a welfare production network.

This networked approach enhances the value of welfare resources, allowing different social groups to attain value from their contributions. Not only does this method generate more social welfare, but it also strengthens the sense of participation and responsibility among members of society toward civilization.

  1. Social Welfare Production Promotes Sustainable Development of Well-being

Traditional welfare systems often rely on government funding and taxpayer support, whereas social welfare production harnesses the collaborative efforts of various sectors to create a sustainable source of benefits.

For example, education and skill enhancement programs driven by collaboration among government, businesses, and communities allow the results of social welfare production to be continuously updated and reused.

This model avoids the pitfalls of depleting singular resources, making welfare a collective achievement created and enjoyed by the entire society, thereby establishing a lasting foundation for social benefits. Social welfare production shifts the reliance on external support, fostering a sustainable welfare system propelled by the collective efforts of society.

  1. Social Welfare Production as a Social Mechanism for the Common Good

Social welfare production emphasizes a social mechanism aimed at achieving the common good through collective action and network cooperation.

Each social welfare production project results from collaborative efforts rather than being the unilateral contribution of an individual or a specific group.

For instance, in the realms of public health care and community services, the government collaborates with businesses and community organizations to build a broader and more efficient social welfare system through resource sharing and division of labor. This social initiative not only enhances service efficiency but also allows various social groups to share in the collective benefits and sense of security gained through collaboration.

  1. Social Welfare Production Drives Society Toward a Higher Level of Well-being

Happiness is not merely an enhancement of individual feelings, but represents the achievement of shared goals across society. Social welfare production, through collaboration and innovation, guides all levels of society toward higher objectives of well-being.

For example, initiatives promoting environmental sustainability, cultural development, and improvements in community life involve the collective participation of various social sectors, allowing all members to enjoy happiness in a better environment and a richer cultural context.

Through social welfare production, happiness transcends individual pursuits and becomes a reflection of the overall happiness and civilization of society.

  1. Social Welfare Production is Capable of Advancing Human Civilization sustainably

The overall progress of society stems from the collective efforts of all its members, and social welfare production is the most essential manifestation of that driving force.

Through creation, sharing, and shared responsibility, social welfare production enhances human civilization through continuous innovation, benefiting all members of society. This model not only provides material security but also fosters the elevation of cultural values.

Social welfare production is not reliant on individual efforts. Instead, it is the creative endeavor of the entire society, aiming to benefit humanity. It elevates civilization to new heights.

For this reason, social welfare production is the only pathway to the ongoing advancement of human civilization.

Conclusion

Social welfare production is also the fundamental source of human happiness.

By harnessing the collective power of cooperation and creativity, it transforms social resources into welfare, driving society to create value for every individual and all.

Only through socially driven welfare production can happiness be widely shared throughout society, leading human civilization toward a more harmonious and inclusive future.

「利民」と「利国」の違い──現代国家統治の正道と秩序

Daohe · Jun 10, 2025

国家の存在理由は、スローガンでも領土でも GDP でもない。 国民の基本的権利を保障し、生活の尊厳を守り、幸福度を高めること――これだけが国家の存在意義である。 もし国家が強大でも国民が困窮し、国の栄光が語られても国民が不安に苛まれているのなら、その国家はうわべだけの空洞だ。見た目は繁栄していても、内部には問題が山積している。 したがって、「利国」と「利民」の本質的な違いを明確にし、「利民」を国家統治の唯一の正当性の根拠として確立することこそが、現代国家の安定・公正・持続的繁栄の前提となる。 Ⅰ. 「利国」と「利民」の矛盾とは何か 利国:国家規模の戦略、安全保障、経済成長、軍事的地位、国際的影響力など、システム全体の目標 利民:国民一人ひとりの収入、雇用保障、住宅・医療、言論の自由、司法の公正、公共福祉、人格の尊厳、政治参加の権利 本来であれば両者は一致すべきだが、権力運用と国家意思の実行過程で次のような構造的矛盾が生じやすい: これら構造的矛盾こそが「利国」優先政策の最大の弊害であり、国民にとっての真の敵である。 Ⅱ. 「利国」中心政策が孕む七つのリスク 表面的な国威や外交上の強硬姿勢を保つために、国民の権利を犠牲にする国家も存在する。こうした選択は、やがて七つの重大なリスクの種を撒くことになる: 1.社会的信頼の崩壊 国民が政府・制度・司法を信頼できず、行政命令が形骸化する。 2.貧富の極端な格差 国家戦略を名目に資源を独占した資本集団に富が集中し、貧困層はさらに貧しくなる。 3. 政治的正当性の危機 国家の公信力が失われ、制度への帰属意識が崩壊し、正当性の源泉が枯渇する。 4.社会不安の蔓延 住宅・雇用・教育・老後・医療のコストが高騰し、国民の心理的バランスが崩れる。 5.公共政策の硬直化 少数の特権層が政策を握り、修正メカニズムが働かず、矛盾が雪だるま式に増大する。 6.言論統制の逆効果 メディア抑制が国民の鬱憤を蓄積させ、「表面は静穏、地下では激流」という状況を生む。 7.長期的競争力の損失 イノベーションや文化創造力が枯渇し、国家は徐々に国際競争力を失う。 Ⅲ. 利民型国家の統治中核原則 真に現代的な国家統治には、国民本位の四大原則を確立しなければならない: 1. 民生優先の原則 財政はまず医療・教育・住宅・雇用・年金など、国民の基本的生活水準を保障することを最優先とする。 2. 権利保障の原則 憲法により、知る権利・表現の自由・政治参加権・監視権を明確に保障する。 3. 公共財政の透明原則 予算編成から執行、行政情報まで全面公開し、納税者が全過程を監督できる仕組みを整える。 4. 権力限定の原則 国家権力は法律によって厳格に拘束され、公権力は公共利益のためだけに行使される。私物化・道具化・世襲化を許さない。 Ⅳ. 合理的国家統治構造の全体図 「三元共治・双方制衡」の構造を確立する: 権力主体 機能定位 監督関係 国家政府 国家安全、財政調整、立法、外交 国民・メディア・議会による監督 市民社会 […]
