Abstract:
In order to resolve the issues existing in aspects such as refurbishing and making over old residential communities, residential selfgovernance, grid management, sanitation and environmental management, as well as service operation by projects of the communities, this paper takes Beilin district in the city of Xi’an as an example, and systematically examines the relevant issues in the comprehensive governance of old residential communities, using methods including conducting questionnaire survey, initiating field trips, and comparing the coping strategies in the comprehensive governance of old residential communities in similar cities at home and abroad. The research yields many findings. In old residential communities, the problem of aging houses and infrastructure is quite severe, and sprawling and illegal buildings, environmental disorder and mess exist to varying degrees. Participation from subjects such as social groups, market forces, local residents and volunteers in the governance of these communities is insufficient, modern property management services are severely lacking, and the governance pattern with diverse subjects participating is not yet formed. Various social sectors’ positioning of the governance of old residential communities in terms of people’s livelihood and public welfare has not been clearly defined, which results in the government policy guidance lagging behind, lack of fiscal capital input in the infrastructure improvement and makeover and soft environment governance, and insufficient humanistic care. This paper proposes that the comprehensive governance of old residential communities should be rooted in the public service theory and the peopleoriented concepts, that the governance level should be enhanced based on the residents’ demand, with a focus on joint governance by diverse participants, and with the important aids of raising awareness, improving supportive policies, increasing financial investments, and setting up sound management systems and work mechanisms.
