The formation of a village governance community is important for supporting the modernization of rural governance capacity, promoting sustainable rural development, and realizing common prosperity. Although village collective enterprises are the key actors driving the formation of village governance community, the generation paths need to be further explored. With Yudong Tourism Company of Quzhou City in Zhejiang Province as a case, this study engaged the actor network theory as the theoretical framework and integrated policy analysis, semi-structured interviews, and online text analysis to analyze the dynamic process and interactions of village collective enterprises promoting the establishment of action networks. On this basis, we explored the local paths of village collective enterprises driving the generation of rural governance community. The study found that the village collective enterprise initially built the action network of village governance community through establishing common goals, interest recruitment and mobilization, and transformation and optimization. The company further promoted the generation of a rural governance community through the construction of two complementary paths of cultural space strengthening and social space renewal. This study summarized the local paths of rural governance community generation, analyzed the functions and roles of village collective enterprises, and provides some theoretical and empirical references for sustainable rural development with the aim to achieve common prosperity.

With China's victory in the fight against poverty, the transformation of rural civilization has become a topic of great concern. Rural public cultural space is an important vehicle for rural civilization change and rural cultural governance, and ancestral halls are a traditional and typical type among these spaces. The results of our analysis show that the contemporary reproduction of ancestral halls is embedded in the context of rural cultural governance. The perspective of rural cultural governance provides co-temporal explanatory power for understanding the logic of the reproduction of contemporary rural ancestral halls. Ancestral halls on the countryside achieve spatial reproduction through the operation of space, subject, practice, and value. The study also mapped out the way of contemporary rural cultural governance. Relying on specific governance vehicles of the rural public cultural space, reasonably delineating the responsibilities of governance subjects, using empirical governance techniques, and emphasizing rural governance goals can stimulate the inherent vitality and effectiveness of rural cultural governance, realize the cultural revitalization of traditional villages, and thus promote the overall revitalization of the countryside.

Traditional villages is an important spatial carrier of Chinese traditional culture. It is vital for traditional villages to highlight outstanding traditional culture under new urbanization. Taking the Huangdu Dong Cultural Village as an example, this study analyzed the process and mechanism of the spatial production of landscape symbols by participatory observation and in-depth interviews based on the concept of landscape symbol, the theory of landscape gene, and the framework of spatial production analysis. The results show that: 1) Landscape genes identify the overall cultural features from multiple principles and multiple levels, and are also the process of induction and extraction of landscape symbols of traditional villages. 2) Huangdu Dong Cultural Village has transformed from a traditional farming village to a traditional village integrating culture and tourism through spatial coding, landscape restoration, and shaping of cultural, then constructed landscape symbols that meet the needs of multiple actors in terms of landscape, art, life, and location to realize the emotional connection and interaction of landscape symbols and the symbolization of landscape. 3) The promotional mechanism of tourism industrial development in Huangdu Dong Cultural Village connects the internal and external driving forces including resident cultural consciousness, tourism market demand, and government policy support to landscape symbol spatial production, then realizes the integration of modern multi-life demand functions and Dong folk culture, also promotes the spatial production of landscape symbols. Aiming for the activation and sustainable development of traditional villages, this study explored the process and mechanism of landscape symbol spatial production in order to provide scientific and practical references for the creative transformation and innovative development of Chinese traditional culture.
