The formation mechanism for the provision pattern of rural social value based on the actor-network theory
Since the implementation of the rural revitalization strategy,rural areas in China have been undergoing a rapid structural socio-economic transformation.In this context,increasing rural social value becomes a pressing issue in the next step,and determining how diverse participants contribute to value growth is the prerequisite.Based on a deep understanding of the concept of rural social value,this study takes Baqiao town,one of the developed rural regions in China,as a case example,using SolVES model to evaluate the rural social value and to analyse the value provision pattern it formed.In addition,based on interview data,this study built an actor-network that drives the provision pattern of rural social value,then comprehensively analyzed the formation mechanism of the pattern,and proposed optimization strategies at the end.The main conclusions of this study are as follows:(1)The distribution of rural social value is spatially imbalanced,with a spatial mismatch between the core area of providing value and the area gathered high value.(2)Through increasing and improving the value providers,human participants actively take two committees of the rural area as the center to drive the formation of the value provision pattern.(3)On one hand,non-human participants shape the spatial form of value by their intrinsic functional attributes;on the other hand,non-human participants are able to be transformed into a new value provider under the guidance of human participants.(4)The formation process of the provision pattern of rural social value is the process in which diverse participants guide relative stakeholders to perceive existing value in a certain space-time context.To sum up,this study aims to build and optimize a rural social value provision pattern,namely,'setting goals-designing and distributing value providers-reinforcing the perceptions of stakeholders'.The findings of this study are significant for enriching the rural value theory,promoting the efficient provision of social value and optimizing the rural multi-governance system.
