In the transforming process of rural modernization, new rural community provides an answer to the question about "where the countryside goes". It aims to construct the community of new rural social life which integrates urban and rural development, and also provides the corresponding basic platform for the equalization between the transformation of rural governance and public services in our country. Both international experience and domestic developments suggest that the construction of new rural community is the best way to promote the modernization of rural areas. A variety of beneficial explorations have been launched in many districts of the country. But in the process of sustainably promoting the construction of new rural communities, there are a lot of problems which need to be further researched bound to spring up.Based on this case, this paper mainly adopts the method of case study and selects the construction of new rural community in Zheng village as the object. Through depth description, it describes the micro process and the panorama of the construction of new rural communities, summarizes its experiences and lessons, explores problems with some regularity in the whole process, and finally provides the theoretical service.Firstly, this paper describes and analyzes the process of community vicissitudes in Zheng village from the historical perspective, and reveals the historical basis and background of its construction of new rural communities. Through historically describing its community vicissitudes, the article shows that community vicissitudes can be considered as the microcosm of the relationship between state and society. The state power has been looking for and establishing the carrier of effective governance, whereas the village inherent power manages to maintain the adaptable and resilient abilities. The interaction between the two forces determines the governance changes and developing direction in rural society. New rural community is the governance carrier the state attempts to establish in order to adapt to the rural development. The two forces must start the dynamic game in the construction process of new rural community in Zheng village.Then, this paper describes and analyzes the construction process of new rural community in Zheng village. After describing government's actions and farmer's appeals, it points out that the construction of new rural community is a government-dominated public action. Government controls all aspects of community, such as the planning, land expropriation, compensation and distribution, and so on. The leading role of government is achieved mainly through compulsory and optional actions. At the same time it maintains that the villagers try every means to achieve their own interests, but these actions clearly demonstrate the passive and compensatory feature. Game of two forces creates the new community living space of Zheng village.Furtherly, this paper describes and analyzes the life state of new rural community in Zheng village. After describing government's community governance and farmer's community life, it believes that in the process of community life, government still plays the dominant role in the daily management and public service. Though government carries out many kinds of actions of community governance and public service, and improves the transformation of farmers' community life, this kind of governance and service has the obvious administrative color which leads to low degree of villagers' participation and recognition. On the other hand, the villagers are placed into a wholly new community space, the radically changes in living environment completely alert their original community and family life. At the same time, they also bear the costs and risks coming from enjoying modern life.Finally, the paper concludes that the new rural community in Zheng village is the logical result of Dominance-obedience relationship mode and a subversive social engineering lack of the farmers' rights and subjectivity. In the further discussion, the paper points out that the construction of new rural community is a long-term objective developing tendency. In the construction process of new rural community, we need to rationally recognize developing stages in rural society and developing level of rural economy. Therefore, constructing in advance and blindly propelling can cause unpredictable risks. It needs a correct understanding of rationality and limitation about government-dominated action, which is not comprehensive interference but boundary and standard dominance. We should emphasize the practical value of farmers' rights and subjectivity. When respecting farmers' life and rights, we also need to pay attention to fostering and achieving their subjectivity. The interactive cooperation between government and farmer can be more conducive to promoting the construction and development of new rural community.
