Tradition,Revolution And Marketability

Every society has some integration mechanism to maintain its stabilization and development. In China traditional period, integration mainly depended on resources of organizes and institutions, such as morality, ethic and clan, and national arrangement and adjustment in culture and institution. A marked character of modern society is that close cooperation has been achieved among every domains and areas. Nowadays, our country being the transitional period, and production capacities of family has improved, and the past cooperant space has been compressed, so the opinion that "the peasants are good at doing something alone, not cooperant" seemly has been approved.This paper is a case study about Maolong Village, and its particularity is that it still keep effective cooperation and supply of common goods during this transitional period, and maintain a integrated community. The integration and governance manners are different in the different historical periods: from the traditional period "headman governance" to "company commander governance" and "village master governance".In the traditional period, the patrimonial bureaucracy empire implemented simple administrative supervision because of the limit of government cost and technique. The empire drew civilian resource by the means of tallage and corvee, but could not provide corresponding command production and service, so the villages had to deal with these problems by themselves, and nonpolitical organizations appeared. After metaphase of the 20th century, social change sharply impacted and destroyed customary resources of organizations and institutions, and cut the connexion that hold community integrated, and all things obey the political requirement, so relatively independent villages cling to the nation increasingly, and become a part of centralization of the state power. Because of some haphazard factors, they achieved compromise partly between the nation and Maolong village. As a result of the compromise, the institution of "company commander governance" had been created. This institution not only came back the contents and manners of common production and supply in traditional period, but also continued memories of villagers. Because of this continuum, the more thorough tidal wave of market economy can not wash away organizational resources of Maolong Village. So,Maolong village hold out effective cooperation in the scope of village in the period of "village master governance".In fact, the course from "headman governance" to "company commander governance" and "village master governance" come down in a continuous line. In the course, customs and common memories play active roles in the condition of market economy and activate traditional factors partly, and take on effective governance situation among the nation, village and peasants.
