• 要約等: <p>Thailand faces the challenges of aging differently than the developed countries. This paper examines the current status and future of community welfare in north-eastern Thailand from the perspective of “Feminist Area Studies.” A feminist approach is indispensable for the current government-initiated community welfare scheme, which is run through Thai communitarianism and volunteerism, to be effective in Thailand. The study yields four key findings. First, Thailand is witnessing “feminization of aging.” Second, women dominated “street-level” officials in local governments play an important role in coordinating community welfare within their jurisdiction. Third, in rural areas, resilient middle-aged and elderly women are responsible for caring for vulnerable people. Fourth, as long-term care increases, so does the financial and emotional burden on “informal caregivers,” including domestic caregivers and various kinds of community volunteers.</p><p>Considering the estimated elderly support rate of 0.3 in 2030 and 0.5 in 2040, it is becoming more important to enhance the “social evaluation” of care. Given its huge informal sector, the “social evaluation” of care may have a different meaning in Thailand than in developed countries. This system is unlikely to be sustainable if it is dependent solely on the unpaid work of volunteers and women. Therefore, the visibility of unpaid labor is imperative. However, it would be vital to create a system wherein everyone who has ability of care, regardless of gender, cooperatively provide care. Buddhist values, common among Thais, may also be effective in according positive meaning to care work. This may create a “women- and family-friendly country,” supported by a welfare society through different path than welfare state.</p>
