重塑社区的“文化网络”：城镇化进程中的新乡贤治理--基于上海市外冈镇“老大人”治理的实证研究

Reshaping the Cultural Nexus of Community:New Rural Sage Governance in the Process of Urbanization——An Empirical Study on the “Laodaren” Governance in Waigang Town,Shanghai

传统中国的"文化网络"为基层治理提供了制度支撑与合法性权威。当前城镇化背景下的社区面临着诸多治理困境,新乡贤治理被视为借鉴传统资源以克服治理危机的可行路径。上海市外冈镇"老大人"治理模式是一种新的探索。国家通过"设定式话语"为新乡贤提供了制度支撑和政策话语,新乡贤运用"协商式话语"获得内生性合法权威,共同重塑了社区"文化网络",社区治理取得良好绩效。因此,发挥新乡贤在社区治理中的有效作用,关键是要在国家与社会之间找到重叠共识。

The cultural nexus provides institutions and legitimacy of grassroots governance in traditional China.Since community governance has been faced with many dilemmas with the rapid development of urbanization,new rural sage governance is considered to be a desirable path to overcome the governance crisis.The“Laodaren”governance is a new experiment in Waigang Town,Shanghai.The state provides institutional support and policy discourse for new rural sage governance through“discourse of prescription”,and the new rural sages use“discourse of negotiation”to obtain endogenous legitimacy.Therefore,they jointly reshape the cultural nexus of the community to achieve good performance.To make sure that new rural sages play important roles in the community governance,the key lies in the finding of overlapping consensus between the state and society.
