How Community Governance is Standardized:Influencing Factors and Multiple Paths——An Analysis of fsQCA Based on 20 Pilots Across China
Standardization of community governance serves as the cornerstone of modernizing national governance,and its significance is self-evident.Taking 20 national pilot projects for comprehensive standardization of social management and public services as samples,this study employs fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis(fsQCA)to conduct a multi-case analysis,exploring the key factors influencing the level of community governance standardization and the various conditional configuration pathways leading to different outcomes in achieving standardization.The findings reveal that there are no necessary conditions for the realization of community governance standardization;instead,multiple conditional configurations exist:the"multi-power-scientific management"type,the"rich resources-multi-power"type,the"rich resources-multi-power-value construction-information technology"type,and the"scientific management-information technology"type.These can be further summarized as the coordination approach,the instrumental approach,and the hybrid approach.The study confirms that the effectiveness of community governance standardization is not the result of a single influencing factor but is achieved through combinations of multiple conditions,indicating that standardization of community governance is a complex process.From the perspective of outcome combinations,the influencing factors of community governance standardization can essentially be summarized as the complementarity and substitution between publicity and technicality.
