To Overcome the Difficulty of Village Self-governance through the Development of Grassroots Voluntary Organization :Understanding the bi-layer structure in the village society

With both theoretical and practical information, this article attempts to demonstrate that there exits a bi-layer structure inside the village society of China, that is, grassroots society consists of villagers and a higher level self-governance organization growing out of the grassroots society.If the related sociological variables of grassroots society , such as community development level, social capital reserves, and the number of voluntary organizations have low values, the grassroots society will be considered in a barren condition.Theoretically a barren society cannot guarantee people to participate in village politics, thus making it difficult to produce effective self-governance organizations . As a result , the two layers of the village society will be broken apart .The solution to the difficulty of villager self-governance exists in understanding the relationship between the two layers in the village society , and promoting the coalition of grassroots society and village politics by developing the voluntary ogranizations in the grassroots society .
