王拱璧青年村乡村自治思想及其实践

The Thought and Practice of Village Autonomy in Wang Gongbi's “Youth Village”

20世纪20年代,军阀混战和土匪肆起,使得社会秩序失控,国家陷入四分五裂的境地。正是在这样的背景下,王拱璧留学日本寻求救国之路。在这一时期,日本最盛行的是"新村"主义思想。这一思想对中国知识分子影响很大,王拱璧也深受其影响,认为这是拯救中国的出路,同时也奠定了其乡村自治思想的基础。归国之后,王拱璧在家乡西华县实践其"新村"主义,通过改村名为"青年村"、创办"青年公学"等一系列措施来实践其救国的梦想。由于社会的动荡,王拱璧希望通过改造基层农村以达到救国的实践,最终还是失败了。

In 1920s, the warlords and bandits rose, the social order being out of control, the state turned into a fragmented situation. In this context, Wang Gongbi went to study in Japan to seek a salvation road. During this pe- riod, Japan＇ s most popular thought is the ＂new village＂. This thought had a great influence on Chinese intellectu- als, and Wang Gongbi was deeply influenced. He thought that this was the way to save China, and also laid the foundation of his thought of rural autonomy. After returning home, Wang Gongbi, in his hometown of Xihua Coun- ty, practiced his ＂new village＂ doctrine by changing the village name and called it ＂Youth Village＂, founded the ＂Youth College＂ and a series of measures to practice the dream of saving the nation. As a result of social unrest, Wang Gongbi＇s hope to save the nation through the transformation of rural areas ultimately failed.
