The People's Mediation System for Rural Environmental Disputes and Its Improvement Under the Perspective of the"Fengqiao Experience"in the New Era
The"Fengqiao Experience"in the new era serves as a typical model for grassroots social govern-ance in China.Against the backdrop of socio-economic transformation and rural reform,the people's medi-ation system for resolving rural environmental disputes faces practical challenges,including a mismatch be-tween the professional quality of mediators and the demands for environmental dispute resolution,diminish-ing effectiveness of ecological norms in conflict resolution,and difficulties in implementing mediation agree-ments.Integrating the"Fengqiao experience"into the people's mediation system for rural environmental dis-putes is crucial for enhancing grassroots environmental governance capabilities and modernizing governance systems.It also addresses the need of improving institutional supplyat the grassroots level while establishing a multiple mechanism for resolving environmental disputes.The internal coupling of these two aspects pro-vides valuable insights for innovating within the people's mediation systems.Focusing on rural environmental disputes,this analysis examines both the practical challenges faced by people's mediation in this domain and their intrinsic connections with contemporary needs.By adopting an innovative integrative perspective,we aim to weave together theoretical connotations and practical experiences from the"Fengqiao Experience"into pathways that enhance people's mediation systems concerning rural environmental conflicts.This can be achieved through strengthening mediator professionalism,implementing an ecology-first approach to envi-ronmental governance,and improving mechanisms that support mediation processes-ultimately seeking po-tential solutions to overcome current obstacles in establishing non-litigious resolutions to rural environmen-tal disputes.
