摘要
20世纪50年代,老年医疗问题在美国社会凸现出来,同时,老年中心这种新型的组织形式促进了老年人政治参与意识和群体意识的提升。在这种背景下,为获得医疗保障权益,一场以争取弗兰德议案在国会通过为目标的老年权利运动在美国勃兴。由于缺乏严密的组织,反对势力的竭力抵制,其目标最终并未达实现。但较之30年代的汤森运动,50年代的老年权利运动表现得更为理性和成熟,并为60年代更大规模老年权利运动的兴起乃至老年医疗保障制度的最终确立奠定了基础。
The issues of national health insurance for elderly were prominent increasingly in America in the 1950s. At the same time, as a new form of organization, senior centers strengthened the consciousness of political participation and group consciousness of elderly. In order to obtain the medical insurance rights, the senior rights movement which focused on the target of getting the Forand bill through congress boomed. Because of lack of rigorous organization and firm resistance of opposition powers, the target of the senior rights movement had not achieved. However, compared with the Townsend movement in the 1930s, the senior rights movement in the 1950s was more maturer and rational, which laid foundation for a larger-scale senior rights movement in the 1960s and the final establishment of Medicare system.
