This accelerated the movement toward the market environment and privatization. This is called the movement toward a quasi-market. The reforms of the long-term care insurance system and social welfare system of Japan, which were introduced in the year of 2000 (the twelfth year of Heisei), were regarded as examples of structural reforms involving the characteristics of a quasi-market. In this thesis I try to read thoroughly the books published in the UK to show and organize the principles of a quasi-market introduced in UK and also try to analyze by using the framework of a quasi-markets how far and wide the market mechanism has been introduced into Japan's long-term care insurance system. The result of analyses reveals that mechanism of competition has not been set to work satisfactorily owing to the limit in the user choices of services which was caused by the insufficiency of the disclosure of information, although the aim of the reform was to improve the quality of services provided by letting in many different service providers. So I consider it very important and necessary for Japan to become more positively involved in the improvement of the quality of the service provided., 論文(Article)}, pages = {1--9}, title = {準市場原理の理論的枠組みと公的介護保険制度}, volume = {7}, year = {2015} }
