The poor villages are grass-roots local society, there are many poor crowding. Poor villages are not only the unit of a grass-roots community, but also one of the main battlegrounds of the poverty alleviation work. In this study, poor villages are the research object. The paper is on the disaster risk, response, and the two-way interaction during in the disaster risk, response and community "order-progress". As a factor, disater risk is put into the "order and progress" of the sociology.In the perspective of the "community" and "daily life", the paper is concerning on the practice effect of the different modes to deal with disaster risk, wich is shaped by Nation, market,and society. At the same time, I also strive to address the advantages and disadvantages in the practical experience and mode of communities and farmers, the state, market and other subjects. I also try to explore how to construct a coping mechanisms and path to due with the disaster risk. The positive interaction between Anti-poverty and Disaster Risk Response is the the ultimate goal.In this study, the content of the disaster risk response includes disaster risk aversion, disaster risk transfer, disaster risk emergency and disaster risk adaption mainly. In this study, I used empirical research methods. Through the analysis of questionnaires, depth interviews, discussions and field research, the study found many facts:Poor village is a "risk society". The community structure, order and development are affected by disaster risk. The community and farmers have accumulated a wealth of experience in long-term disaster risk response. Self to deal with the traditional strategy is the main strategy of disaster risk aversion of the poor villages, community structure and the allocation of factors of production, the daily life of organizations, to maintain the livelihood of communities all are response to a specific embodiment of the main strategies. The performance of Modern technology-organization disaster risk aversion system, conducted by Countries with the common market, is dismal in the poor village’s communities. In the community of poor villages, the organizations wich are outside a farmer/community bear the fuction of the disaster risk metastasis. Farmers’daily life behaviors are restricted by the disaster risk in future extently. They transfer mutual ly and dependently, so the Traditional community policing continues. Under the social security system, the state became the object of the farmers own social network outside of a better risk transfer. Various types of market insurance due to the different main motivation to pursue the rules of the game and there is no good docking, orderly interaction situation and good convergence mechanism is not established. Its function of the disaster risk transfer did not play very well. Poor village disaster risk transfer practice is still in the traditions customs framework.Poor villages are still the traditional social network of co-ordination and consumption smoothing strategies under the auspices of a single farmer self-help mode Contingency in the small and medium-sized disaster risk. The modern technology-organizational disaster reduction and relief system can not effectively reach the poor villages. Religious relief, social other donors and social organizations participated in the Contingency of the small and medium-sized disaster risk is extremely weakly. The intervention of the market (insurance) also depends on the degree of vulnerability of the property insured in the face of disaster risk. Government is basically the absence, market and social involvement is almost empty. Outside, except the communities and farmers, is very weak on disaster risk intervention. The country’s social welfare and social security policy intervention is successful, which is through the daily life of the poor villages. It does not promote development, but at least determine the livelihood security. On the Catastrophic emergency, the national power on the resource mobilization and integration is the guarantee to the poor villages in the emergency disaster risk. It achieved effective interaction between the main outside the subject and within the community. The country’s modern disaster risk coping mechanisms had reach within the community successfully and played a great effectiveness. The poverty-stricken village community order was prevented into disintegration. Community has been developed sustainablly. The difference of the interference degree from outside has led to a different path between "negative" and "positive"through the farmers’awareness, understanding and acceptance on the disaster risk. Outside the main body, the stronger the degree of intervention and its adaptation to the higher level of disaster risk. Under the Interaction of Multiple, disaster risk can take advantage of the possibility of using also depends on the degree of outside interference. Thus, the disaster awareness, behavior, attitude of daily life is different. Single farmers and poor villages have external characteristics in the disaster risk adaptation. Farmers have heavier dependence on village community and the state, society and market about policy desire and resource dependence, while their dependence is prevalent in poor villages under different disaster risk response model.The new disaster risk management model, on the premises of Poverty alleviation, has great practical significance. The new model has urged a new approach to adaptation, disaster risk response. The single disaster risk management and the single poverty alleviation can not reach their goals. The two working mechanism should be combined. Therefore, we should build a new coping mechanism, which is jointed between poverty alleviation and the disaster risk management. the mechanism must be on the premises of Poverty alleviation.
