Coordination Strategies of Water Governance:A Case Study of the River Chief Office
The comprehensive implementation of the River Chief System is an inherent requirement for promoting the construction of ecological civilization,and is a major institutional innovation for improving the water governance system and ensuring national water security.The River Chief System is mainly composed of two parts:the leadership responsibility system with the party and government leadership responsibility system as the core,and the organizational coordination system with the Office of River Chief as the center.In practice,a water governance pattern has been formed with the River Chief System as the institutionalized platform and the Office of River Chief as the regular coordination mechanism.The River Chief Office is the deliberative and coordinating agency created to solve the problem of watershed governance.Field research shows that the key to avoid falling into the coordination dilemma is to adopt contingency coordination strategies according to the situation.From the two dimensions of coordination institution and coordination resource,the coordination strategies adopted by the Office of River Chief can be divided into four types:conventional coordination,relational coordination,momentum-based coordination and momentum-building coordination.To understand the action logic of Office of River Chief in choosing a coordination strategy,we can start from two dimensions:interest factors and affair attributes.There are obvious differences between the above four coordination strategies in terms of coordination benefit and coordination cost,which determines that different types of coordination strategies are suitable for specific transactions of different natures.
