Abstract

The rural social problems in China have continuity. By reviewing and analyzing the rural construction carried out by the government, social organizations, and intellectuals in Shandong during the Republic of China period to rescue the decline of rural areas and revitalize the rural economy, we can gain rich experience and lessons for current rural grassroots governance. The rural construction movement in Shandong during the Republic of China, through practice, ultimately formed various models of rural experimental areas. However, due to the limitations of the times, it ultimately failed due to various reasons. In the new era, grassroots governance in rural areas should adhere to the concept of people-oriented and be close to the actual needs of rural areas; Actively mobilize diverse stakeholders and build a collaborative governance system; Implementing rural education and cultivating a solid foundation for development, these measures aim to promote the modernization of China's grassroots governance system and provide assistance for the development of rural revitalization.
