Research On Villagers' Discourse On “Corruption” During Targeted Poverty Alleviation

Through field investigations and in-depth interviews with 10 povertystricken villages in A province,it is found that with the deep progress of targeted poverty alleviation,the rural folk political discourse in China has seen a new chapter.Among them,corruption discourse such as “Poverty alleviation means helping lazy people” is the most common and most dramatic.The object of the villagers' refusal is basically the “poor households” such as “waiting for help”.As far as corruption theory is concerned,they are not public rights and cannot be the corrupt subject of power rentseeking.In essence,discourse expression is a traditional strategy for political participation of grassroots people.Corruption discourse not only presents the new political demands of ordinary people,but also highlights the current problems of unfair distribution,increased risk of political mistrust and deterioration of political relations at the grassroots level in the field of targeted poverty alleviation.First,since China implemented the policy of targeted poverty alleviation,first,the anti-poverty struggle has become more "politicized" and the political opportunity structure has changed drastically.Second,with the combination of China's rural governance reform and administrative power,it has lost its stability.The basic cadre relationship and its engraved trust cracks provide an institutional space for the generation of new discourse.In addition,the new dual division of poor and non-poor households,the historical memory of “poor for the poor” and the “complaint of the villagers” and the grassroots culture also deeply control the reproduction of folk discourse in an informal system.Second,the allocation of misplacement is the realistic basis for the generation of corrupt discourse.Therefore,based on the various aspects of the targeted poverty alleviation project,the grassroots society regenerates the general logic of corrupt discourse: In the process of identification and withdrawal,in order to defraud the national identity,“competing as a poor household” and reshaping the political identity different from the general public;In the help session,the first is to regard the rescue as the legitimate right enjoyed by the individual,to wait for the public products to enter the private pocket;the second is to rely on the state to empower the security,to provide the benefits of the system to protect the benefits;the third is to construct the discourse hegemony of "having difficulties in finding cadres",coercing the government.In short,the phrase "waiting for the right" is a concentrated expression of the villagers' maintenance of justice and condemnation.The study of civil corruption discourse has important governance value for examining poverty alleviation system and reshaping fairness and justice.First,in the fight against poverty,adhering to the labor standard,we must not only find institutionalized lazy people,but also use labor ethics to "treat lazy",in the system supply and rights limitation,seek a reasonable balance of state empowerment,and completely surpass " Help lazy" trap.The second is to optimize technical governance and carry out “precision” to the end.In the modern political arena,family members(citizens)are the most basic political unit.Therefore,it is possible to advance the consideration based on family organizations(households)to specific “poor people” and achieve real poverty alleviation.
