“中间”的生产——基层治理开放性建构中的实践机制

The Production of the"Interface":The Practical Mechanism in the Construction of the Grassroots Governance Openness

面对复杂现实,开放性建构成为治理现代化的关键议题,但该如何在与治理的总体性诉求带来的闭合性的互动中达成?本文以一个新型公共文化空间的营造为例,阐释行动者如何通过在交界点(空间)、交界面(文化与社会)、交界机制(治理机制)上做文章,生产出作为连接机制的“中间场”和作为转译者的“中间人”,从而化解张力,打开基层治理场域。“中间”的生产揭示了包容性制度弹性的生产与国家一社会接合机制的建构过程,体现了权力运作的隐秘柔性,具有探索中国式治理现代化前沿的理论和实践意义。

Faced with the complex reality,the construction of openness has become a key issue in the modernization of governance,but how can it be achieved in the interaction with closure rooted in the general demands that exist with China's national governance?Taking the construction of a new public cultural space as an example,this paper explains how actors can produce an"interface"as the connecting mechanism and an"intermediary"as the translator by making an issue of the interface point(space),interface(culture and society)and junction mechanism(governance mechanism),so as to dissolve the tension and open the field of grass-roots governance."The production of the interface"reveals the production of inclusive institutional flexibility and the process of constructing the State-society interface mechanism,reflecting the hidden flexibility of power operations,and is of theoretical and practical significance in exploring the frontiers of Chinese-style governance modernization.
