Abstract

The operation of the Rural Minimum Living Standard Guarantee System and the degree of participation of the main body are relatively poor in most areas of China nowadays, and there exist several problems (e.g., the confusion of the definition, the deviation of policy implementation as well as the lack of effective management means). The management of government alone has been unable to gain the peasants' trust and meet their demand. The aim of this study is to avoid the deficiencies of rural subsistence allowance that under the traditional management mode, improve the Rural Minimum Living Standard Guarantee System to be opener and more rational, help peasants to better understand the rural subsistence allowance policy, dispel their concerns, and increase social participation by the participation of peasants. However, peasants' participation cannot solve all the problems but negatively affect the construction of the Rural Minimum Living Standard Guarantee System. This probably results from peasants' interests becoming self-oriented, their unordered participation and self-preference, etc. In practice, we should avoid both the deficiencies above and seek the conjunction from government management and peasants' participation to facilitate the construction of modern governance model and service-oriented government.
