Perhaps we should conduct an important social reform, i.e. creating “the social life community”. Because of popularization of artificial soil technology, the ties between people will be becoming closer and people will form the inseparable society. So it will be possible and necessary to create the social life community. The social life community should consist of two parts. One is traditional cities and the other is the collective mountainous villages or the vast countryside. Let’s say in China, about half people live in the cities and the others live in the new collective mountainous villages. The task of the former will be producing industrial products and carrying out scientific activities and education and so on, but the latter in vast rural areas will be producing agricultural products and resting and building up strength. This concept has broken the conventional concept that big cities in modern society are expanding endlessly. Chinese people will take another road to realize urbanization with urban population and rural population kept separately at about 50%.
People will live harmoniously and equally in the social life community. Through adjusting functions of the social life community, the differences between urban and rural areas as well as the rich and the poor will be controlled at reasonable range. Meanwhile the whole people will enjoy free medical treatment and free education and social insurance as well as endowment insurance. Especially, the community will supply free grain and lower rental houses for widowers, widows, orphans, childless, disabled persons, helpless women and children. Even foreign people can be allowed to settle in Chinese social life community as the new members to do peaceful labor work. As our economy will be developing and science and technology will be progressing, the community will be changing better and better (see also F-076). This is my academic idea to probe the problem of urbanization with Chinese characteristics.
