唯物史观视域下银发经济与老年人的自由全面发展

Silver Economy and the Elderly’s Well-Rounded Development: A Historical Materialist View

摘要: 银发经济是关乎民生福祉的战略性举措，更是推动老年人全面自由发展的关键一招。以唯物史观为分析视角，可以深刻理解银发经济的基本意涵：它是回应老年人需求变化的产业形态，是老年人确证自身本质力量的重要路径，是老年人扩大社会交往的重要方式，并最终服务于老年人的自由全面发展。细究银发经济发展现状可以发现，其正面临着四大现实困境：供需错配、人才短缺、技术异化、城乡失衡。在此基础上论证，银发经济唯有坚持以人民为中心、健全专业化的人才支撑体系、强化数字的正向赋能、完善城乡协同的制度安排，才能使老龄群体“生活得更好”、“生活得更精彩”，以期为银发经济健康发展提供理论参考。

Abstract: The silver economy, analyzed through historical materialism, is crucial for the well-rounded development of the elderly. It responds to their needs, affirms their capacities, and expands their social engagement. Currently, it faces challenges like supply-demand mismatch, talent shortage, technological alienation, and urban-rural disparities. To overcome these, a people-centered approach, professional talent development, positive digital integration, and improved urban-rural coordination are essential for enabling the elderly to live better and more fulfilling lives.
