Since the reform and openness, the small towns, especially the ones in the east developed areas have boomed, owning to the implementation of the household contract responsibility system and the rapid upgrade of the township business. Various development models associated with particular areas have appeared, such as Sunan, Wenzhou and the delta of the Zhujiang river, which reflect a bright prospect of the modernization of rural areas in China. It might be safely say that the boom and prosper is the inevitable outcome of the development of rural economic and township enterprises, and also the essential condition for further development of them, on the other hand.As a important aspect of the social development and social structure differentiation, the small town development is highlighted by the academic field and some government departments from the very beginning, and once a time become the theme of social science, especially of sociology in the 80's. Some scholars headed by Feixiaotong have already given an extensive research to the small towns in the eastern areas on their status, roles, developing impetuses, functions and structures. The achievement on related theories is also gratifying. However, the research on the ones in the western areas is still scarce, such as the research on their histories, actuality, mechanisms as -well as functions, particularly on the development models, which is even more scanty, despite the fact that the scientific and sensible small-town development models has strategic significance to their healthy development, and further, the modernization of the rural areas.Based on such consideration, I take the small towns in Guanzhong, the middle areas in Shannxi, as the subject investigated, where the economic development is relatively impressive in Shannxi, and somehow even in the west. The four development models is analyzed extensively and also intensively, which has not only supplied a gap in the research about the small-town development models in west, enriched and broadened the related theory, but also got to the frontier of small-town development in the west through research on the particular examples, whichdoubtlessly has instruction and reference significance to the road selection of other towns where the condition is similar to this area.For that, in order to make a primary exploration on her pygmy effort, the writer has not only actively collected the existing materials and digested the other's research achievement, but also personally investigated several counties in the area on this subject and thus a lot of first hand material is collected. Started from the define and research significance of the small-town development model, this article give an overall study on the development of small towns in the whole country, summarize the history course and present character of their development in Guanzhong, and thus put forward an orientation for them lengthways and broadways, make an emphasis on the analysis on the causes, development characteristics and statuses, sum up their common ground, bring up the corresponding policy suggestion and the development model selection of this towns latterly.The main contents presented in this article are outlined as follows:1.
