The Win-win Pathway and Implementation Mechanism for Capital Infiltration into Rural Areas and Smallholder Farmers:A Case Study of Village A in East Shandong
During the process of capital infiltration into rural areas,village community organizations play a critical role in promoting a mutualistic and symbiotic relationship between enterprises venturing into the countryside and smallholder farmers.This paper uses the experience of the Party branch in Vil-lage A leading a cooperative as a starting point and,from the perspective of"translation"within the ac-tor network,distills three main mechanisms by which village community organizations play a role in translating between enterprises and smallholder farmers.These are political empowerment,institutional embedding,and elite-driven operation.The functioning of these mechanisms enables village community organizations to construct a cooperative relationship between enterprises and smallholder farmers,char-acterized by"shared benefits and shared risks,"with the market as a key point,and creating a symbi-otic developmental space where both enterprises and smallholder farmers can leverage each oth-er.Despite certain achievements in translation,there are still challenges posed by institutional structure suppression and high levels of differentiation among various actors.It should be approached from the fol-lowing aspects to promote the practice of constructing actor networks in the process of capital going to the countryside:First,the government should moderately decentralize and empower village community organizations to enhance their agency in translation;Second,aggregating the common interests of diverse entities should be prioritized to stimulate the actors'motivation for translation;Third,the principle of mutual construction and sharing should be reinforced to improve the stability during the translation process.
