Abstract:

In 2013, the construction of “Three Governance Fusion” began in Tongxiang City, Zhejiang Province. Over the past ten years, it has arisen from a local innovation to a central policy, and has now been spread to the whole country, which fully reflects the effectiveness of “Three Governance Fusion” in solving the problems of grassroots governance. So, does this mean that the “Three Governance Fusion” can fundamentally break through the limitations of the existing grass-roots governance, so as to form a new governance model? Further,does “Three Governance Fusion” have key significance for the reconstruction of modern grassroots society?

The written discussion is a targeted response to the above questions. We hope to arouse the academic community’s attention and debate on the “Three Governance Fusion” and the reconstruction of grassroots society. Professor Zhang Wenxian believes that “Three Governance Fusion” is the theoretical basis and practical source of the proposition of “Fengqiao Experience in the new era”, and it has profound theoretical and political logic from “bonsai” to “landscape”. At present, the “Three Governance Fusion” of autonomy, rule of law, and rule of virtue is a scientific concept that should not be changed. Professor Xu Yong believes that facing the future, to further innovate and develop the “Three Governance Fusion”, we must take the road of systematization, including construction and improvement of the organizational system, the work system, the service system, the institutional system, the support system, and the theoretical system, and the promotion of modernization of the grass-roots governance system and governance capacity. Professor Qiu Zeqi believes that in modern China, the heterogeneity of the grass-roots society is increasing, the correlation between the grass-roots society and the world is increasing, and the grass-roots social structure is breaking off the tail chain, and there is a conflict between the fragmented individual and the integrated social order. To innovate grassroots governance, the first thing is to reconstruct grassroots society, and Tongxiang’s “Three Governance Fusion” practice has made an active exploration of this. Professor He Xianming believes that Tongxiang’s “Three Governance Fusion” runs through three major agendas: first, the coordination and co-governance of multiple governance subjects; second, the optimization and integration of multiple governance resources; and, third, the integration and empowerment of multiple governance tools.

Key words: Three governance Fusion, reconstruction of grassroots society, modernization of grass-roots society governance
