Abstract: Village community renewal needs the cooperation of villagers, village collectives and township governments, which has been deeply embedded in the rural governance system. Based on the perspective of rural governance, this paper constructed a research framework to analyze the village community renewal from three dimensions of 'urgency-ability-legality'. The decision-making process and operation mechanism of village community renewal under different modes were analyzed, and the planning strategies were put forward. Firstly, urgency was the origin of village community renewal, which affected the actions of stakeholders and formed the basis of village affairs. Secondly, comparing the influence ability of stakeholders on village community renewal, so as to determine the dominant power and village community renewal scheme. Finally, only after the legal risk study and judgment could the village community renewal scheme be started and implemented. In the context of 'top-down combination' rural governance system, village planning should identify the source power of village community renewal based on the urgency, distribute the dominant power based on the capacity, and construct the interest community based on the legality.
