The overall goal of comprehensively deepening reforms proposed by the Third Plenary Session of the 18 th CPC Central Committee is to improve and develop the socialist system with Chinese characteristics and to advance the modernization of national governance systems and governance capabilities..The extensive space for exploration and innovation of the governance model in our country has been greatly expanded.Local governance plays an important role in national governance.As an integral part of state governance,local governance is an important foundation for the modernization of state governance.Nowadays,our country has entered a period of profound social transformation.The constant changes in the economic system and political system in the transition period have given rise to the social stratification and the awakening of civic awareness.What followed was the new social needs and new problems were constantly increasing.If the social needs are not effectively satisfied,the people will be forced to pressure their existing institutions in the form of expressing their interest demands.The conflicts and frictions of citizens in the pursuit of interests may also lead to social conflicts.It is difficult for local governments alone to solve all the problems and meet all the needs,the traditional governance mode of local government needs to be changed urgently.In recent years,our social organizations have become an increasingly powerful force in local society.Moreover,social organizations,due to their advantages of convenient access to information,quick response,flexible operation,strong professional competence,strong risk tolerance and ability to innovate,it can play an important role in local governance.To promote the effective participation of social organizations in local governance and its role is an inevitable requirement for good local governance and an inevitable requirement for the state to modernize its governance.Social organizations play an important role in local governance.Social organizations can build a bridge between government and society,maintain social stability,maintain economic order and foster citizenship.Although social organizations have grown stronger,they still have their own limitations.They are manifested in thefact that social organizations may experience "voluntary failure" and imperfect development.This determines that social organizations must strengthen their cooperation with local governments when participating in local governance.Social organizations need certain conditions to fulfill their role in local governance,including the appropriate and appropriate institutional environment,external conditions such as social trust and support,as well as legitimacy and autonomy,strong motivation and ability to participate,and sound internal governance structure Internal conditions,if not perfect internal and external conditions,the role of social organizations in local governance will be difficult to achieve.In practice,the scope of participation of social organizations in local governance has been constantly expanded,its influence has been continuously enhanced,and its channels of participation have also become increasingly institutionalized.However,the depth of participation of social organizations in local governance is still inadequate,and the high levels of social organizations’ violations have also affected their credibility.The role of social organizations in local governance has not been effectively implemented.There are three main limiting factors: the institutional environment is not relaxed enough,the social organization’s own capacity is insufficient and the traditional concepts are limited.Therefore,it is necessary to improve the institutional environment and strengthen the social organization In the two aspects of construction,we should promote the effective participation of social organizations in local governance and its realization.
