Abstract: |
Accompanied by the impact of industrialization and urbanization, the urban-rural gap
continues to widen, presenting a development challenge faced by countries globally. Addressing the
imbalance in urban-rural development and the inadequate development of rural areas is a crucial
task in China's rural governance. Since the twentieth century, China has sequentially implemented
key initiatives such as the construction of a new socialist countryside, the development of beautiful
villages, and the integration of urban and rural areas. These efforts have effectively addressed
issues like environmental pollution, public facility shortages, and rural hollowing-out, while
also improving the overall rural environment. Rural cultural governance is proposed against the
backdrop of a modernization transformation aimed at harmonizing the development of material
civilization and spiritual culture, becoming an important means to achieve urban-rural integration
and promote the sustainable development of rural society. Rural public spaces, as the core domain
of rural cultural governance, play an irreplaceable role in maintaining and inheriting excellent
rural culture and nurturing the spiritual lives of residents. Currently, an increasing number of
public spaces are engaging in rural cultural governance, yet there is a lack of interpretive tools
in the related research to elucidate the specific pathways for the transformation of the actual
effects of rural public spaces on cultural governance. Additionally, the key spatial elements and
organizational forms that play a crucial role in rural cultural governance have not been clearly
identified. This study constructs a theoretical framework for the relationship between rural public
spaces a nd r ural cultural governance w ith culture a s t he i ntermediary. Within t he system of r ural
public spaces, the form of public spaces provides physical space support for public daily life and
social relations, serving the spiritual cohesion of villagers’ daily use needs and social interaction
processes. Simultaneously, public spaces are increasingly valued by rural culture, enabling the
spatial representation of rural culture through the rural public space system, thus forming a cultural
representation system of space.
Rural cultural governance utilizes the different attribute characteristics of the public space
system to implement effective protective measures and reasonable planning and construction of
public spaces in the material space. It also strengthens the connection of social relations and the
effective infusion of culture in the social and spiritual spaces, thereby forming four governance
pathways: spatial production, service delivery, governance embedding, and community cohesion.
The cultural characteristics of public spaces can provide insights for rural cultural governance,
which treats public spaces as the object of governance, stimulating the vitality of rural public
spaces and thus forming a virtuous cycle of governance. The study conducts empirical research
on the above framework through the case of public spaces in the Dong villages of Southeast
Guizhou. It specifically analyzes the characteristics of the elements and organizational forms of thepublic spaces in Dong villages. Based on key cultural connotations such as spatial centripetalism, organizational hierarchy, psychological identification
with cultural symbols, and intergenerational transmission of local knowledge, the study further summarizes the specific content of the four governance
pathways: systematic protection of rural public spaces as cultural carriers, emphasis on the organizational construction of the rural public life supply
system, provision of ideal locations for cultural governance, and enhancement of cultural identity and community cohesion. The research suggests that
rural public spaces are not only important venues for daily life but also a key medium for intervening in and influencing villagers' private lives, improving
intergenerational relationships, and maintaining and strengthening the sense of community in villages. They are the cornerstone of rural cultural heritage
and social vitality. Achieving "good cultural governance" through the reshaping of rural public spaces lies in organizing spatial elements with cultural
influence, providing the soil for the development of a soft governance model. Through the combined effect of the four pathways, public spaces become an
effective platform for rural governance, ultimately forming a positive feedback pattern between rural cultural subjectivity and the effectiveness of rural
governance. Furthermore, given the strong "empirical" nature of rural cultural governance, future research on rural public spaces should also develop
towards diachronic, dynamic, and reflective research, truly improving rural society through collaborative cultural governance. |
