The author’s idea is that,"the economic base determines the superstructure", the economic environmental differences between township and village directly determinates the performance of township-village relationship. Furthermore, the interaction between village cadres and township cadres also play an important role in the performance.Not only so, this thesis also considers the common problems derived from current township-village relationship, especially focus on the specific problem and its causes. As far as the author concerned, the reason lies not only in the fiscal system but also in laws and regulations, not only in the construction of village cadres but also in the enhancement of villagers’ democracy and legal consciousness. Based on the above analysis,the thesis finally provides some countermeasures and suggestions on how to construct benign township-village relationship.Currently, to develop villagers’ autonomy and to achieve the goal of management democracy, it is important to take the township-village relationship seriously to make it developed well and quickly though accelerating the process of government function transition, establishing and improving laws and regulations together with fiscal system reform, enhancing the connotation of villages’ economic growth, improving the political performance evaluation.
