乡村数字治理的类型化路径研究OA

The transformation of rural digital governance is directly related to enhancing national governance efficiency,and it also serves as a crucial underpinning for advancing the modernization of rural governance and implementing the rural revitalization strategy.Since the"Digital Countryside Strategy"was first explicitly proposed in the Central No.1 Document in 2018,various regions have successively introduced digital technologies into rural governance practices.However,in the process of advancement,the"horse-race"-style competition has led digital governance to gradually deviate from its original purpose.Higher-level assessments have focused more on the quantity and superficial innovation of digital technologies while neglecting their actual empowerment effects,which in turn has given rise to issues such as digital burden,digital alienation,and digital formalism.Academic circles have put forward numerous countermeasures to address these problems,but field research reveals that most existing studies have failed to touch the root cause.The core issue lies in the rigid,"one-size-fits-all"embedding of digital technologies in grassroots governance,which overlooks the inherent differences among rural areas in China.This mismatch between digital technologies and the actual needs of rural communities hinders effective governance empowerment.Based on field observations,interviews with villagers in multiple rural areas of Fujian Province(conducted from July to August 2025),and practical cases of typical rural areas in other provinces,this study adopts a typological perspective.It classifies Chinese rural areas into three categories—traditional,developing,and developed—based on seven core characteristics:resident population,industrial structure,geographical location,economic level,educational attainment,social form,and degree of urbanization.Subsequently,it sorts out the digital governance needs and practical dilemmas of each type.On this basis,the study proposes targeted digital governance models for the three types of rural areas:a weak digital governance model for traditional rural areas,a gradual digital governance model for developing rural areas,and a strong digital governance model for developed rural areas.These models aim to resolve the practical challenges in current rural digital governance,realize the effective empowerment of digital technologies in rural governance,and steadily promote the modernization of rural governance.
