Research on the Implementation Pathways of Rural Digital Governance Driven by Agile Governance: A Case Study of Tianjin Municipality
In the context of advancing the Digital Village Strategy, this paper examines key challenges in digital governance for suburban villages in Tianjin, characterized by fragmented perception, slow response, and superficial integration. We propose a three-dimensional agile governance framework, Sensitive Perception-Rapid Response-Social Integration, that emphasizes multi-stakeholder collaboration to establish a localized implementation model. Field studies in Jizhou, Baodi, and Wuqing Districts illustrate practical pathways for operationalization. Findings indicate that “Sensitive Perception” overcomes delayed risk identification through a combination of the social organism concept, multi-source data screening, and precise task allocation; “Rapid Response” improves service efficiency by leveraging public interest orientation, real-time information exchange, and coordinated stakeholder engagement; and “Social Integration” ensures long-term governance sustainability via principled decision-making, interest balancing, and consensus reconstruction. Drawing on Tianjin’s rural characteristics, strong urban influence, dense industrial integration, and high population mobility, the study introduces the Suburban Rural Agile Governance Adaptation Model, offering replicable strategies for localized digital governance in urban fringe areas.
