The pattern of differential order and its shaping logic in the context of resources going to the countryside
Taking"one township with multiple villages"as the two subjects of rural relations,this paper,by breaking through the past conventional research approach of regarding"village"as an abstract entirety,proposes"the differential pattern of rural relations".Under the background of"administrative dissolution of autonomy"and rural integration,there exist differences of"closeness and distance"in the relationship between townships and all its administrative villages under their jurisdiction.And there are three main factors that shape this kind of closeness and distance.The first factor is the importance of specific administrative villages which are located in the central or the importance of local agriculture-related policies;that is to say,the more prominent its policy position,the closer the relationship with the township.The second is whether the governance of a particular administrative village is good or not;that is,the stronger the village cadre's ability to govern the village,the closer it is to the township.The third is whether a specific administrative village has an ascribed outreach relationship in the system including the township,which means that the more important this outreach relationship is,the closer it is to the township.The allocation of top-down resources among villages is often shaped by this differential pattern,rather than the other way around.
