Abstract:In the practice of rural revitalization, the villager council representative system is a substantial approach organized by the grassroots government with farmers as the participants. According to the case of H village in Jiangxi, this research finds that:in the whole process of “authorization and entrustment—benefit realization—effective supervision”,the villager council representative system takes public opinion as the criterion, aims at the overall development and effective governance of the village, and reflects its democratic coherence. The connection of power and responsibility, the practice for the common interests and the constraints of multi-level subjects, reflect the true representation of the villager council representative system. Therefore, the essence of the villager council representative system is the process of expressing, consulting, decision making and implementing based on the common interests of the villagers. It is the practice of people’s whole-process democracy. The implementation of the villager council representative system rests on the effective use of the informal system, the effective decentralization under the leadership of the Party organization, and the continuous and effective negotiation.
