A Village with Employment Opportunities and Social Harmony:Who are Talking about It,and about What?
Currently,there are three main research approaches centered on the concept of a village that offers employment opportunities and social harmony.Policy analysts primarily focus on the top-level design of such villages,underscoring the historical context,the inevitability and necessity of these developments,the implementation mechanisms,and the prevention of misunderstandings.Academic theorists,on the other hand,are deeply engaged with the theoretical essence and underpinnings of these villages.They analyze the concept from both holistic and internal perspectives,deconstructing its multifaceted nature.The theoretical foundations of the Chinese path to modernization,the legacy of a century of rural construction,the principles of urban-rural integration,strategies for responding to external risks,and the concept of"harmonious"cultural heritage provide the scholarly framework for their inquiries.These theories aim to unravel the complex dynamics of farmers and villages,seeking to understand their intrinsic motivations and capabilities.Practitioners at the grassroots level are preoccupied with the guarantees for realizing a village that is both employment-rich and socially harmonious.County and rural cadres,enterprises,and social organizations play key roles in this endeavor,each contributing according to their specific roles to achieve collective strengths.However,farmers—as the primary agents of change in these villages—are notably absent from the discourse,leading to a disconnection between policy,theory,and practice.This gap impairs the depth and effectiveness of research,as it lacks theoretical substantiation,practical applicability,and international exchange.To address this issue,future research should encompass five interconnected perspectives:those of the farmers,the theoretical frameworks,the practical context,the external environment,and the holistic considerations.By doing so,we can enhance the research to be more effective,rational,targeted,inclusive,and systematic,thereby fostering a dynamic"policy-theory-practice"cycle that is both sustainable and impactful.
