Community Administrativeisation and Governance Measures - A Case Study of Community S in Chengdu City

Since the reform of the "unit system", the problems exposed in the operation of community neighbourhood committees have led to endless debate in the academic community about the need for "administrativeisation". The theoretical basis for the "de-administration" of community neighbourhood committees comes from the relevant provisions of the Constitution and the law, while the theoretical basis for "administrativeisation" comes from the real problems that exist in practice, which is the gap between what should be the case and what is the case for community neighbourhood committees. Based on a sample analysis of Community S in Chengdu City, this paper synthesises the actual situation of community neighbourhood committees across the country, and puts forward some thoughts on the governance of community neighbourhood committees.
