“社区”概念的本土化历程

The Localization Process of the Concept of “Community”

作为一个学术概念,"社区"经历中西不同语言的转化和社会变迁的形塑,形成了不同的概念内涵和面向。社会、社团、村庄、单位、政府、财产是理解社区概念内涵的六个重要参照基点。作为一种制度结构体,"社区"是处于国家与个人之间的一个中间组织层级,是促进社会有机联系和良性运行的重要一环。住房商品化改革之后,社区从"国家权力末梢"转变为"合法化私有财产",这为社区回归成为一种真正的基层自治组织提供了可能。

As an academic concept, ＂community＂ has gradually formed several meanings and orientations shaped by the different languages and social changes. We can better understand the meaning of community by six important reference basis points, which include society, asso- ciation, village, work-unit, government, and property. Meanwhile, as an institution, ＂community＂ is the intermediate organization level between the state and individuals, which helps promote the organic operation of grassroots society. After the housing commercialization reform, community was changed from the tip of state power to private legal property, which provides the community with the possibility of regressing to grassroots self-governance organization.
