摘要：

乡政与村治的合流及冲突并存是乡村基层治理中的主要关系形态，由此产生的假想科层关系既不能单纯归因于乡政的介入，也不能简单归结为村治的“草根”想象，其是乡政与村治合谋的结果，集中表现为党政分工的制度逻辑、权力运行的治理逻辑、资源追逐的分配逻辑、动员策略的话语逻辑等。经由假想科层关系导致的“法治悖论”本质上是乡政与村治合意产生的副产品，破解思路不能就法治而论法治，而应该回到避免合谋的假想科层关系这一前提。法治化是乡村基层治理的必然道路，并不能因为所谓的“法治悖论”而缓进或摒弃，问题的关键在于寻找乡村基层未来秩序建构的形态、乡政与村治之间的关系向度、乡政与村治之间的制度空间，推动从传统的乡政村治到乡村基层治理的转型，形塑新时代乡村基层治理新秩序。

Abstract:

The convergence and conflict of township governance and village self-governance coexist as the main relational forms in rural grassroots governance. The resulting imaginary bureaucratic relationship cannot be simply attributed to the intervention of township governance, nor can it be merely ascribed to the “grassroots” imagination of village self-governance. It is the outcome of the collusion between township governance and village self-governance, which is concentratedly manifested in the institutional logic of Division of labor and cooperation between the party and government, the governance logic of power operation, the distribution logic of resource pursuit, and the discourse logic of mobilization strategies. The “rule-of-law paradox” resulting from the imaginary bureaucratic relationship is essentially a by-product of the collusion between village self-governance and township governance. The solution to this paradox should not focus solely on the rule of law itself. Instead, it should return to the premise of avoiding the imaginary bureaucratic relationship born of collusion. Legalization is an inevitable path for rural grassroots governance, and it should not be slowed down or abandoned due to the so-called “rule-of-law paradox”.
