乡村社会治理不仅是农村的自我管理与自我发展,同时关系到党在基层的执政合法性,关系到中国特色社会主义民主政治的发展,关系到国家治理体系和治理能力现代化建设。新时期乡村社会治理取得诸多成就的同时也面临着新困境和挑战,即领导协调困境、资源短缺困境、政治参与困境、治理理念困境。要想破除这些困境,需要从制度上保障、思想上提高、管理上为民、方式上创新,才能顺利推进乡村社会治理,实现乡村善治。 Rural social governance is not only the self-management and self-development of rural areas, but also the legitimacy of the party’s governance at the grassroots level, the development of socialist democracy with Chinese characteristics, and the relationship between the state governance system and the modernization of governance capacity. In the new era, while making many achievements in rural social governance, it also faces new predicaments and challenges, namely the predicament of coordinating leadership, the shortage of resources, the predicament of political participation, and the dilemma of governance philosophy. If we want to get rid of these dilemmas, we need to safeguard the system, improve our ideology, and manage people for the sake of innovation in manners and methods, so as to push forward social governance in rural areas and achieve good governance in rural areas.
