This paper is a case study of Red Town in north of Hunan province. Choosing Zeng Haoyi and Chen Gensheng as the representative of hoodlums of Red Town, based on the exposure and analysis of the rural hoodlum's life history and deviance behavior, this paper aims at displaying all vicissitudes of rural society order in flourishing or confusion ages after some crucial social vicissitude since 1980. The moral and discourse vicissitude, as well as the order and authority aberrance also would be measured in this paper, thus certain logic in the vicissitude of rural graying during the latest 20 years might be understood.This paper thinks that all kinds of important social things in rural society since 1980 have marked an effect on the living history of rural hoodlums directly and continually. With the rapid invading of market economy, as well as the exchange influences between government policy and rural hoodlums'deviance behavior, rural society has experienced the change of life style and structure, which caused the graying regeneration of rural society fundamentally. The implantation of modern market elements brings about the rural graying vicissitudes in the rural society which originally needs order, acted by triple factors—the decrease of high-handed and conventional authority, the impact of market, and the disintegration of rurally endogenetic conformity forces. The rural graying vicissitudes is characterized by its potentialities of economy and the control of physical violence, which has become a kind of structurally integrated strength, maintaining the order and the authority along with the transformation of the rural society.Thinking along with this route, this paper tries to answer the five questions. First, how does the social order graying of Red Town in north of Hunan province come into being; Second, how could the rural hoodlums and deviant force act as alien force to keep order in contemporary rural society; Third, how possible is the graying rural order, and how does it work; Fourth, in the course of intransparency-transparency development, why does the rural graying become an organic part and a normal phenomena of contemporary rural order; Fifth, how possible is"foster order"in the rural society of Red Town.From this paper, the following conclusions can be drawn: the rural society transformation directly provided a fertile soil for the budding, formation and growth of rural aberrant force. The public governance model transformation of state latter totalism gives reasonable space for the production, operation and management of rural"foster order". Thus, not only does the graying vicissitude of the rural society result from political governance transformation of latter totalism macroscopically, but also it results from the social significance brought about by the deviance forces microscopically. The national strength of basic level experiences from the mobilized system in people's commune period to the pressured system after the Reform and Opening Policy, along with the development of Market Economy. Due to the essential features of political governance of latter totalism, the national strength of basic level gives birth to"Foster Order"by interacting with endemic order of villages. During the transformation of the rural society, the initial one formed the crucial basis of the rural society order; the middle one created the endogenesis soil; and the final one became the productive force. These three forces affect each other and are shaping the maturity of the deviance force and the vicissitude of the graying of rural society order.
