From"Political Power Embedding"to"Political Power Integration":New Trends of the Relationship between Primary-Level Political Power and Rural Society in China
The analysis framework of state power and rural society shows that,after the tax-for-fees reform in rural China,there has been a"political suspension"of state power in rural society,which leads to a"suspension"of resource investment in rural policy.With the implementation of poverty alleviation strategy,the relationship between state power and rural society has reached a stage of comprehensive resource input and total mobilization of rural society with the process from"suspension"and"re-sinking"to"embedding"of political power.During the stage of rural revitalization,the Party and government have comprehensively inte-grated rural society and developed a structure of"primary-level political power integration"of policy resources,social capital,so-cial organizations and the public with primary-level issues as the guidance,the Party committee and government as the organiza-tional core,and social organizations and grassroots people as the main body.The establishment of this structure aims to stimulate rural vitality and enhance the endogenous force of rural revitalization through the power of the Party and government.Of course,the realization of"political power integration"must be based on continuous mobilization of rural society and full mobilization of the whole society by the Party and government as the prerequisite.Meanwhile,external policy resources and internal local re-sources must be fully combined to develop real wealth creation mechanism for rural revitalization and continuously promote the realization of common prosperity in rural areas.
