Research On The Influence Of Village Merging On The Supply Of Rural Public Goods

The issues of agriculture,farmer and rural area have become the fundamental problem of the healthy development of rural.The low income level,weak agricultural foundation and lagging development have a great negative impact on the new rural construction and the agricultural modernization.As an important part of the issues,the supply of public goods in rural areas has become a key to the speed and quality of rural economic and social development.However the supply of public goods is not just a problem about technology and financial,it also has a close relationship with the political construction.Because of the characteristics of the public goods,on-exclusive and non-competitive,it can’t be effectively realized through the resource allocation mechanism.The external governance and the internal construction of the village at all levels become the dominant path of supplying.With the rapid development of urbanization,it has the trend that ruralhollowing and urbanization exist simultaneously.The merger of villages which is the main content of the new type of rural community construction has expanded in the Chinese countryside gradually.This will have a long-term,dynamic impact on the development of the whole rural areas.This research takes this point,under the background which building socialist harmonious society became the main subject of the rural construction,to clarify the influence of village merger on supply of rural public goods and put forward some suggestions for improving the supply of rural public goods.On the purpose of the study,we use the obtained data which came from Jiangsu Province to analyze the rural hollowing phenomenon,master the characteristics and the forms of expression of the ruralhollowing,then define some related concepts.Finally,on the basis of the theories,we will discuss the influence of village merger on the supply of public goods in the countryside.Part one:The situation and trend of village merging and the rural public goods supplying.With the development of national economy,the political,economic and social structure of the rural society has changed obviously.According to the needs of this research,we mainly use the method of literature review and a large number of secondary statistical data to review the contents of two aspects of village merging and public goods supplying.Through the study,it is found that the change of the economic conditions cause the population flow and bring about a significant change in the structure of rural villages,that is,the emergence of the characteristics of village hollowing.And for the consideration of maximizing the benefits of economic activities,on the one hand,it requires for land conservation,on the other hand,it outputs the land to the city continuously.The village merging becomes a conscious or inevitable choice.In fact,this is a microcosm of the process of urbanization and portrayal.It is expected that this trend will continue in the long historical period of our country,but how to promote the historical process properly,it needs the policy makers and executives to pay more wisdom and thinking.The rural public goods supplying has a very important role in improving the rural landscape、the living standards.All this has been proved by many researches.The rural public goods supplying in our country compared with the international from the data,there are significant progress.But there is still a big gap between the living needs and there is still much room for improvement.The increase in the number of public goods supplying is not able to fully represent the effect.The efficiency of the rural public goods supplying should not only include the material level,but also include the spiritual level,that is the users’ sensory effect.In the efficiency evaluation of rural public goods supplying,to the people,only the useful things are effective.The useless things are not effective,even if the government is repeatedly identified as effective and compulsory.Part two:The impact of village merging on the rural public goods supplying.At present,the research on the relationship between village merging and the rural public goods supplying,mainly from the aspect of the village hollowing,this neglected the change of the rural structure.These changes will have an impact on the psychology of the villagers.In the study,the characteristics of farmers,such as gender,age,education level and social identity,will affect the evaluation of rural public goods supplying.Through the further analysis,we can find that the village merging can change the characteristics of the original villagers,and then influence the effect of the village democratic governance,which ultimately affect the evaluation of the rural public goods supplying.The study found that the same public goods supplying,such as the village road,the evaluation of validity is basically consistent no matter what directly benefit before the merging.But after the merging,whether or not direct benefit has a big difference on the evaluation of the effectiveness,which is mainly influenced by the villagers’ psychological comparison.Because of the lack of the original identity and the sense of belonging,their own interests become the influence factors of the evaluation of the rural public goods supplying.The improvement of the villagers’ heterogeneity caused by the village merging,increased dispersion of villagers voting and increased competition for democratic election,all this reduce the effect of democratic governance and ultimately reduce the villagers’satisfaction with the supply of rural public goods.The research shows that after the village merging,the form of the village,democratic governance mechanism,the integration of the villagers and collective action will be changed.All this will influence the evaluation on the effect of the rural public goods supplying.Through the analysis of village merging,this paper wants to find out the influencing factors of effective supply of rural public goods,and then puts forward the relevant policy recommendations.Combined with the problems in the research,we may put forward the direction of the future research.
