During the 20th century, with the increasing environmental problems in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region being put on the country's agenda, ecological migration as a major project led by the government began to become an effective way to bring Rural Residents from traditional life into modernization. The Environmental significance of ecological migration increasingly gave way to its economic significance and political significance, but as a government-led immigration policy, it also coerced more farmers and herdsmen into a new pattern of living state and power structure. Behind government's large scale migration project are many perplexing doubts, and this article just discussed such a question:as the advocate and organizer of this large-scale social project, what role does the authority of government plays in the new pattern of community integration, and what kind of specific form should it present? Therefore, based on field survey in the village, the author puts the vision into the interior of an immigrant village, trying to find a clear clue of the operation of state power in such a complex interests-relationship influenced by different policies.There are five parts in this article, chapter one is the introduction, introducing the reason, research methods and recent research result of this topic. Chapter two introduces the whole process of how the immigrates village formed. Different from former immigrants villages, now they residents came from different villages, and there are a lot of contradictories and conflicts exist, which are caused by different interests, such problem is very hard to cope with for various immigrates sources and immigrants policies. Then, the theme comes. The content of chapter three is that a village had been divided into several interest groups requiring differently. Therefore the villages all faced the destruction of collective sentiment, due to the division among performers with different interests, especially when the governmental external integration power is missing. Chapter IV elaborates the whole process of the failure of national anti-poverty projects and the preview of a new round of immigrant-village-process designed by the state. In this section, government power becomes a dominant authority that also plays a negative role in accelerating the disintegration of the community in village management. To the contrary, the "dominant" here actually reflects the weakness of state power.In the different manifestations between "strong" and "weak", people have to reflect on what kind of form should the state power presents. In Chapter five, the author proposed that current rural power structure has a big shortage existing in both the display of despotic power and the fulfillment of infrastructural power. People should balance the "strong" and the "weak". On one hand, ensuring its ability of policy-making; on the other hand, restricting it systematically, in order to maintain the welfare, justice and representativeness of the state power. For the sustainable living of traditional farmers and herdsmen, the existing asymmetric power model must be broken fundamentally, their rights of living must be protected institutionally, their ability of dominating and managing resources must be enhanced reasonably, and the village's role as a functional community must be stressed.
