Despite their important contributions to the ageing population, their management strategies and organisational mechanisms often escape the attention of current research on China's emerging third sector. This article, based on ethnographic data analysis, examines how non-governmental elder homes in L District of Taizhou, a city in south China, address different demands and expectations in the local market and cope with various antagonisms in the field of social service that have occurred during the post-socialist reforms in their diverse institutional orientations. Four categories of institutions?high-end, low-end, village-based and service-oriented?are recognised with distinctive organisational aims, administrative rationales, service delivery models and methods of survival. The article reports their different or shared concerns and dilemmas, and discusses the social environment for these young social service organisations in China. The findings highlight the complex relationships among the local government, the growing market economy and the newly emerged third sector in contemporary China, and the fundamental influences those interactions exert on the future development of social services and the social work profession in the post-socialist nation."
