China had achieved a great success in poverty governance since the economic reform of China, and made a outstanding contribution to the global poverty alleviation. However, there still have some long-term existing factors that could decrease the efficient of poverty governance during these years’ work. From the microcosm level, the most obviously problem is the low level of willingness of helped people to participate in this process, which leads to loss the position of "Peasantry Subjectivity". Moreover, it also cause the situation that resources is not effectively satisfy the local needs, and then fall into a dilemma that the poor is still poor.One clear fact is that, governance of poverty to reduce the proportion of poor people in the future will no longer totally depend on a high speed of economic develop as we did on last century. Some research shows the advantage to the poor from economic development and its inclusive level are decreasing. Therefore, in order to achieve an efficiency governance of poverty, we should put more attention on improve the governance process, usage of resource and strength the working precision, after that, achieve the self development in poor area."The organization of peasants in the Governance for poverty reduction" is an old problem but also a new concept. During the helping process, the helper should organize all the poor people to become a group with certain rule, to allow everyone can take part in helping process; this method is from the community development projects of some international organizations. On last century, influenced by some international public assistance organization, the government began to emphasize the participation of peasant in poverty governance, and tried to improve the poverty reduction process through organizational method.This research will combine the history of Chinese poverty governance in rural area. Clear describe how the peasant organization appear, different type of organization and its background. This research will separate the peasant organization in poverty governance into three types, which are strong value input, strong regulation input and strong benefit input. Base on that, this research will start with Inside Development Theory, combine with other exist research, to discuss the inter-relation between peasant organization and Inside Development Theory.This research choose three poor villages’ poverty governance as samples in on-the-field research, and conduct a detailed inspection on this topic base on Inside Development Theory and follow the research logic, resource delivery—resource receive—self production from inside. This research shows:In resource delivery process, there are several remarkable different in different aspect between the government and social organizations and the community organizations in interaction process. They are exist in the structure of objective organization, target and principle, organization monitor and organization evaluation. Although the peasant organization was initiative by the government, but it still hard to break through the dependency of current mechanism, shown by the top-to-bottom political characteristic. However, the poverty governance leading by social organization required more professional among the whole process. For the problem about what is the target of poverty management, the government may more concern about the economic rise of peasant, but social organization would be more focuses on not just economic, but the development of community as a whole.In resource receive process, the peasant organization process is a public community construction process, therefore, this kind of organization with resource will connect to the public affair of village, and then unite. The development schedule of organization for poverty governance will follow the governance logic of the village, the outsider is hard to intervene into the community. So the success of peasant organization in poverty governance is more depend on self-regular organization and elite in villages. In the late tax age, due to weaken of organization in villages and corrode by market, the peasant organization will be very weak. Especially in some bad environment area, conduction of peasant organization will has contrast effect.In the self production process, although peasant organization for poverty governance cannot solve the stride across social capital of peasant, but it has the advantage on discover and improve the inside homogeny social capital. The code of organization is "participation" which is more suitable to the peasant’s behavior logic in poor area. Research shows, this method can improve the living subjective of peasant, also can spread breeding technology to peasant faster, and elite in community also can motivate the poor to change their living structure. This research states, during the helping process, it should put more attention on details and roof cause, as outside organizations, we should not just focus on what they need, but also what they can do.In the conclusion and discussion part, this research will base on the cases, I will think further about the poverty governance in China. There were three Policy implications of this study:Firstly, under the overall pattern of " organization Governance for poverty reduction,"we should further strengthen the country’s involvement in the countryside and achieve "accurate poverty" in a positive way; Secondly, we must attach great importance to the role of grass organization of impoverished village in the governance of rural poverty, unite poor governance with the building of rural grassroots organizations; Thirdly,we should gradually explore the drive through rural elite, general farmers support and the participation of poor farmers ways to improve the efficiency of the rural poor governance. In the discussion section, the study pointed out that the fundamental mitigation of the problem of rural poverty, dependented on endogenous development strategy in the country as a unit. as a microcosmic sense community-based Endogenous development of poverty reduction strategies, can promote the livelihood capital growth of farmers at a certain extent, but the limiting factors were more than positive factors.
