Features: The first chapter of this book was written by Xu Xuli and Yu Keping. It is the final report of the Ford Foundation-funded research project "A Comparative Study of Rural Governance in China in the 1920s-1930s and the 1980s-1990s: Taking Ding County, Zouping, and Jiangning as Case Studies," with a research scope covering county, township, and village levels of rural governance, particularly focusing on village governance. The remaining chapters were completed by researchers from higher education institutions and research organizations in the three case study locations. They referred to a large amount of literature and conducted field investigations to obtain invaluable data. Additionally, the book proposes reasonable suggestions for addressing issues in rural governance. This book holds significant academic reference value for researchers studying rural issues in China and can also provide a reference for relevant departments in formulating corresponding rural development policies.
