RESEARCH STATUS OF RURAL GOVERNANCE AND RURAL SPATIAL GOVERNANCE IN CHINA
Based on the current literature of authorita-tive journals in China,this paper conducts bibliometric analysis on the research hotspots and research themes of rural governance and rural spatial governance.It is found that the current research on rural governance aims to solve the public affairs within the countryside,while the research on rural spatial governance focuses on the distribution of spatial resources.There is an overlap on the relationship between the governing body and the stakeholders in the research.From the perspective of the discipline of urban and rural planning,there are three fac-ets of prospects:namely governance methods for in situ urbanisation of villages in the fringe areas of metropolitan cities;hierarchical and classified governance of villages based on county,town and village coordination;spatial governance to promote farmers'citizenship under the trend of rural contraction.These research visions aim to provide references for the development of governance in rural areas of China.
