As one of the main bodies of grassroots social governance,voluntary service organizations can make up for the lack of functions of the government in the complex situation of grassroots social governance to a certain extent,and promote the development of grassroots social governance to "flexible governance".Since 1980 s,voluntary service organizations have emerged at the beginning in social governance cause,but with the intensification of social changes of all kinds of social contradictions appear continuously,with social changes of all kinds of social problems are also gradually increasing.In practice,voluntary service organizations participate in grassroots social governance faces many problems.This has greatly reduced the effectiveness of voluntary service organizations in participating in grassroots social governance.Therefore,the Party and the government attach importance to the role of voluntary service organizations in grassroots social governance,and promote and encourage voluntary service organizations to actively participate in grassroots social governance.Therefore,it is particularly important to explore ways for voluntary service organizations to participate in grassroots social governance.D organization as the main research object,the author adopted qualitative research methods and combined semi-structured interview with participatory observation to interview community workers,staff of D organization and community residents and collect data.By sorting out and analyzing the relevant materials of D organization’s participation in grassroots social governance,the process and experience of its participation in grassroots social governance are sorted out,and then the feasibility path of voluntary service organization’s participation in grassroots social governance is discussed.The study found that the participation of D organization in grassroots social governance experienced an "embeddedness-linkage" transformation process.The main ways of participation are as follows: First,voluntary service organizations enter the community field through "embeddedness" in the initial stage of participating in grassroots social governance,and obtain legitimacy.Relational embeddedness is a prerequisite and the foundation of the entire participation process.By responding to the needs of the community,voluntary service organizations establish a good relationship with community residents and neighborhood committees and realize the relationship embeddedness of the community.Structural embeddedness is an intermediate link and a concrete process of participating in grassroots social governance.Through participation in practice,voluntary service organizations achieve role and service embeddedness in community governance structure.Secondly,after "embeddedness","linkage" of multiple subjects into the community,to promote the collaborative governance of grassroots society.The linkage mechanism is the core of the linkage of multiple subjects.Through the linkage platform,D organization creates the linkage mechanism of subject,function and resource,promotes the formation and maintenance of linkage relationship,and realizes the sustainable development of grassroots social governance. |
