Distributed Deliberation:The Internal Logic of Deliberative Representative Driving High Quality Deliberation in Rural Areas——Take Village S in Central China as an Example
Rural deliberative democracy is an important form of practice in the whole process of peo-ple's democracy,and the deliberative representative,as a dynamic factor in rural deliberation,has a signifi-cant impact on the quality of rural deliberation,but the specific influencing mechanism and working condi-tions are still insufficient to discuss.By constructing the conceptual framework of distributed deliberation,this paper attempts to investigate the influencing factors and logical mechanism of deliberative representative driving high-quality deliberation from the perspective of"structure-process-function".Based on the in-vestigation of bay L pilot deliberation experiment in village S in central China to promote the landing of green plant project,it is found that deliberative representatives need to form a distributed representative structures in the four dimensions of object,subject,content and mode to solve the normative problems caused by the deliberation representative structure.At the same time,the"representative chain"should be organically embedded into the specific deliberative process by setting classified topics,hierarchical units,and diversified deliberative forms step by step,so as to realize the deep integration of structural representa-tive chain and procedural deliberative form,thus achieving the deliberative function of inclusiveness of sub-jects,cohesion of links,and diversity of elements at the system level of deliberation.It tends to be a real state of high quality deliberation in the countryside.Distributed deliberation is a beneficial exploration of grassroots representative governance in China,and the high quality deliberation presented by the bidirec-tional mutual embedding of the deliberative representatives and deliberative forms is a vivid representation of the whole process of people's democracy in rural areas.As a new growth point and extension point of the research on the modernization of Chinese grass-roots governance,rural deliberative representatives not only deepen and expand the traditional representative research,but also suppurate and surpass the Western rep-resentative theory,which will continuously enrich and expand the theoretical connotation and practical form of the whole process of people's democracy.
