Financial Policy Research For Promoting Water Infrastructure Construction Input

71%of our Blue Earth surface is covered by water, the source for all forms of life as well as necessary material for human existence and development. Water conservancy refers to a series of activities and policies of effectively developing, managing, regulating, controlling, dredging and protecting all types of water resources, so as for the prevention and control of water and drought disasters and water resources integrated utilization. Closely related to the immediate interests of the masses of the people, water conservancy directly serves the agricultural production. As the old Chinese saying goes "Food is the paramount necessity of the people", China is an agricultural country with a large population. Food safety concerns the survival of the nation, and searching for a solution to the food problem has always been its first priority. As flood control safety has direct bearing on the prosperity and peace of the country, water conservancy is significant for the country's stability and development. Playing an irreplaceable important role in flood control, water supply, food production, economic development and ecologic safety, water conservancy is one of the component parts of national economy infrastructure. Along with the economic and social development, the importance and scarcity of water is highlighted increasingly as an irreplaceable resource in the new era. How to effectively utilize the limited amount of water, by drawing advantages and avoiding risks, will always be a long-term and arduous task for China's water conservancy.Focusing on the promoting of water conservancy development by implementing fiscal policies in the new era, the paper applies qualitative and quantitative analysis, normative and empirical analysis methods. Based on related theories, the paper analyzes the necessity and feasibility of public financial support for water conservancy development in the new era, finding the major obstacles restricting the development of water conservancy, through reviewing the various stages of water conservancy after the foundation of the New China as well as bringing into consideration the current situation; finding the existing problems in policy formulating based on the analysis of the current fiscal policies of the central and local governments on water conservancy. Drawing on the experience of typical developed and developing countries, the paper presents suggestions of fiscal policies for water conservancy development in the new era which is practical, meanwhile, it elaborates on the complement policies for establishing a relatively perfect policy system to promote the water conservancy development.The first chapter presents the basic idea of this thesis. Through discussing on the background for subject selection, it demonstrates the complexity and importance of the topic, and meanwhile analyzes and uses for reference domestic and international water conservancy investment scale, investment and funding ways as well as related mechanisms and systems. It initiates readers into the basic framework, research methods and technical routes of the paper and defines the subject investigated, and proposes possible innovation points and existing deficiency. Chapter Two is the theory section of the paper, demonstrating water conservancy development stage theory, public product theory, and etc. Its feature of water conservancy stage development is brought about by both the demand on water conservancy of economic society in different eras and the restriction of eco-environment. The defining of stage demand on water conservancy benefits while capturing the key emphasis. Through expounding the public welfare, fundamental and strategic features of water conservancy, this chapter emphasizes the necessity of public finance supporting water conservancy development. At the end of the chapter, the application of mathematical statistics measure expounds and proves the feasibility of public financial supporting water conservancy development at present and in the future.Problems are forwarded in Chapter Three. Reviewing the three stages of water conservancy development since the foundation of the New China, it analyzes the different features of the three stages form the viewing angle of supply and demand relations of safety, economical efficiency and amenity. It points out the major problems faced by water conservancy development in the new era. The problems are analyzed in Chapter Four. Fiscal policies supporting the water conservancy development are sorted and analyzed from both the central and local levels, with corresponding assessments are proposed for the effects of the policies. It then makes structural analysis on the capital from different aspects of where the capital comes and goes, and meanwhile it analyzes the stage feature of water conservancy investment. Based on the above analysis, it proposes the policies which still have room to improve at present and in the future, so as to forward the fiscal policies supporting water conservancy development in the new era in the next few chapters. In Chapter Five, inspiration on China's water conservancy development is proposed by drawing lessons from international water conservancy development. Lessons could be drawn by researching on the international water conservancy development and investment modes, as the exploitation and utilization of human-being water resources are similar.The core part of the paper lies in Chapter Six, which strives to forward solutions for fiscal policies supporting water conservancy development in the new era based on raising and analyzing problems. The first part of the chapter defines the guiding ideology, fundamental principles and targets of the fiscal policies supporting water conservancy development in the new era, followed by suggestions from the aspects of fiscal policy tools and water conservancy development targets, which are dialectically unified instead of isolated. Chapter Seven elaborates on the other supporting policies.
