The society management is the main function of government to construct the harmony society,and how to govern the 'mass incidents' emerged as collect action is the important element of it.Due to the historical and ideological reasons,the Government is used to manage the society with the logic of the political.However,the society has its own logic of development.It should be examined from a social perspective for the regulation of the relations between government and the society.The perspective of this paper is trying to look at the relations between government - society from the perspective of administrative participants.Collective action of administrative participate has its own logic,the main thrust of this paper is revealing the logic of collective action through a case study,and then raise the way to institutionalize the collective action.The article based on the assumption that the effective administrative participation is depend on the successful collective action of the well-organized civil society.The collective action will success if it meet the conditions as follows:the well-designed institution,well-organized civil society group and a trust relation between government and civil society.In this paper,the theoretical framework of collective action is raised from such three dimensions:the institutional arrangements of collective action of administrative participation,organizational security and the cognitive basis of collective action.The logic of the text as follows:collective action in the administrative participation costs a lot of social costs and can easily lead to instability in the social order,but in today's China society why do this collective action can make a even more efficient result than the institutionalized participation ? To explore reasons,this article intends to look for the basic conditions of a successful collective action after reading a large number of articles and cases.Then,we find that such elements should be have in a successful collective action:a good institutional arrangements as well as the excellent mobilize ability of organizations and the mutual trust among participants,such as good Community awareness of each other,the logic of collective action of Administrative participation provide a theoretical foundation for the governance of "mass incidents". Government should play a main role in the transfer of the institution of administrative participation from the collective action to institutional participation from such three dimensions:the institution,organization and culture.In this paper,urban and rural areas were selected as the background of the two cases,panoramic description of two different process of collective action of administrative participation,and validate the former hypothesis.On this basis,the author conclude that the path from collective action to institutional administrative participation.
