| In April,2021,the CPC Central Committee and the State Council issued the opinions on strengthening the modernization of the grass-roots governance system and governance capacity(hereinafter referred to as the opinions),pointing out that grass-roots governance is the cornerstone of national governance,and promoting the governance of towns(streets)and urban and rural communities as a whole is the basic project to realize the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity.A grass-roots governance system integrating "three rules of virtue" and a grass-roots management service platform featuring grid management,refined services,information support and open sharing.China is a large agricultural country,and farmers account for more than two-thirds of the total population.Therefore,rural grass-roots governance is an important part of national grass-roots governance.In this context,this paper selects the villagers’ participation in grass-roots governance in s village,Nansha District,Guangzhou,which was rated as a national rural governance model village in 2019 as the research object,excavates successful experiences and models from its governance practice,summarizes its existing governance problems,analyzes its causes,and puts forward governance countermeasures,which can be extended as a successful path for villagers’ public participation in grass-roots governance in China,For reference to other villages in China.In terms of main practices and governance results,s village has formulated and improved village rules and regulations to ensure villagers’ participation,implemented the "four discussions and two openness" consultative democracy working law and the people-oriented refined governance method,showing a governance pattern of "gradually institutionalizing the way villagers participate,gradually standardizing the ways and gradually expanding the scope of governance",effectively improving the effectiveness of village governance and optimizing the living environment,It has continuously promoted economic development.But at the same time,s village is also facing the common dilemma that most rural villagers in China are facing in participating in grass-roots governance.Its outstanding Governance Dilemma has the following aspects.First,the overall quality of the villagers is not high,and the villagers’ participation in the democratic decision-making of grass-roots governance is insufficient.The second is that the villagers and the village leadership have a weak sense of democratic supervision,and the villagers’ supervision over the village leadership is not effective.The third is that the villagers’ democratic consciousness is weak,and the dominant position of villagers’ participation in grass-roots governance is missing.The fourth is that the investment in information construction in rural governance is insufficient,and the media(means)for villagers to participate in village governance and grass-roots governance are backward.Based on the theory of public participation and the governance experience of village S,this paper puts forward some countermeasures to improve villagers’ effective participation in grass-roots governance from the perspectives of perfecting villagers’ participation system,perfecting villagers’ participation mechanism,innovating villagers’ participation governance mode,clarifying the responsibilities of township government and village committees,cultivating and developing non-governmental organizations,cultivating villagers’ awareness and ability of participation,and improving the cultural environment of villagers’ participation in grass-roots governance,so as to promote villagers’ participation in the democratization of grass-roots governance and build a "prosperous industry,ecologically livable and civilized countryside". |
