1949—1952年,中国共产党通过和平接管、区划调整、民主建政建构了一套新的农村基层政权体系。征粮支前和清匪反霸运动的开展,废除了保甲制,打击了乡村旧有权威。土地改革和镇压反革命运动重组了乡村社会结构,重塑了新的社会关系。醴陵县的个案显示,国家权力的下移极为深刻地影响了农村社会的发展。 From 1949 to 1952, the CPC established a new system of rural grassroots power through peaceful takeover, zoning adjustment and democratic governance. Pre-requisitioning grain support and the Qing anti-hegemonist movement carried out, abolishing the Baojia system and cracking down on the rural old authority. The agrarian reform and suppression counter-revolutionary movement restructured the rural social structure and reshape the new social relations. The case of Liling County shows that the downward movement of state power has profoundly affected the development of rural society.
