行政借道社会:基层治理创新中的政府调适行为研究--基于Z省S区的经验案例分析

Administration Piggybacking Society:A Study on Government Adjustment Behavior in Grassroots Governance Innovation--Based on the Empirical Case Analysis of S District in Z Province

在一个现代化快速转型的国家,政府调适能力是保证基层治理体制稳定运行的必然要求。近年来,随着基层治理体系规范化的不断推进,基层问责的强化以及创新压力的增大,基层治理正面临体制刚性化的转型困境,基层行政体制内部的调适空间也在逐渐缩小。为了化解科层体制压力、再造自主行政空间,基层政府会主动突破行政科层体系边界与社会组织展开“策略性合作”,通过“行政借道社会”强化自身的调适能力。“行政借道社会”是基层政府做出的一种新型外部调适行为,其不仅超越了以往的“策略主义”“共谋”“避责”“工作机制创新”等的理论解释框架,还深化了政社关系中的嵌入性视角,是重新认识基层治理体制保持弹性和适应性的重要切入点。为此,应该积极透过“行政借道社会”的复杂实践过程与机制的阐释分析,拓展基层政府调适能力下体制弹性与适应性维持的中国经验和理论命题,同时为当前实现基层治理现代化提供方法论启示。

In a rapidly modernizing country,the adaptability of the government is an inevitable requirement to ensure the stable operation of the grassroots governance system.In recent years,with the continuous advancement of the standardization of the grassroots governance system,the strengthening of grassroots accountability and the increasing pressure of innovation,grassroots governance is facing the transformation dilemma of institutional rigidity,and the adjustment space within the grassroots administrative system is gradually shrinking.In order to resolve the pressure of the bureaucracy and rebuild the autonomous administrative space,the grassroots government will actively break through the boundary of the administrative bureaucracy and engage in“strategic cooperation”with social organizations,and strengthen its own adaptability through“administration piggybacking society”.“Administration piggybacking society”is a new type of external adjustment behavior undertaken by the grassroots government.It not only exceeds the previous explanatory framework of“strategism”,“collusion”,“avoidance of responsibility”and“innovation of work mechanism”,but also deepens the embeddedness perspective in the relationship between the government and the society.It serves as a crucial entry point for reinterpreting the resilience and adaptability of the grassroots governance system.Therefore,we should actively share the Chinese experience and theoretical proposition of institutional flexibility and adaptivemaintenance under the adjustment ability of grassroots governments through the interpretation and analysis of the complex practical process and mechanism of“administration piggybacking society”,and provide methodological insights for the modernizationof grassroots governance.
