传播基础设施理论视域下老年教育困境研究OACHSSCD

In the context of a profoundly aging society,policies for elderly education often face the dilemma of"suspension"in their grassroots imple-mentation.Moving beyond traditional perspectives of resource allocation and implementation games,this study innovatively introduces Communication In-frastructure Theory(CIT)as an analytical framework.It argues that the root cause of this"policy suspension"lies in the systemic fracture of the grassroots communication infrastructure responsible for information translation and dissemination.A case study of Quanzhou reveals that the fracture manifests across three key dimensions:the isolation and dysfunction of narrative networks(community organizations and local media);the alienation and exclusion within arenas for communicative action(physical,social,digital,and familial spaces);and the obstruction and erosion of connecting channels(resources and trust).These three dimensions intertwine to form a vicious cycle,leading to the gradual dissipation of policy intentions at grassroots levels.The study re-frames the policy implementation process from a linear model of administrative transmission into a dynamic social communication ecosystem,thereby offer-ing a new theoretical perspective for understanding the"last-mile problem"in public policy.
