Great changes have taken place in the capitalist political-economic system in recent decades

which have had a profound impact on the labor market and the mobility of workers around the world. Neo-liberal globalization is a double-edged sword. On the one hand

it makes profound changes in the form of production organization and labor process

makes profound adjustments in labor relations

and exposes workers to new and more uncertain risks

which requires the state to provide more targeted welfare support; On the other hand

it severely restricts the welfare state system based on central macro-control

and it is difficult to play the role of employment protection and welfare support in Keynesian sense. The welfare paradox implied here is that neo-liberal globalization cannot exist without a welfare state

but it is difficult for neo-liberal globalization to coexist with the welfare state system. When we learn from the experience of western developed countries in order to innovate the way of China's welfare system reform

we can't ignore that the welfare state system is facing an adaptive dilemma at present.
