Linlin Dai, Karine Dupre, Dong Li, Ling Yang
The issue of agriculture, countryside and farmers (tri-agricultural problems) is a fundamental issue that relates to China's national economy and people's livelihood, and the revitalization of the countryside is a national strategy for realizing China's new urbanization. In the metropolitan suburbs, with the deepening of marketization and globalization, external capital began to enter the field of rural development and gradually led the process of rural transformation. Based on systematically combing the rural transformation path, taking Simatai Village in Beijing as an example, this paper reviews its development and summarizes the characteristics of its internal space, land, labor force and production methods. Afterwards, it mainly analyzes the transition path from traditional villages to folk custom tourism villages driven by large external capital, and summarizes its development patterns in production relations, land circulation, space reconstruction, industrial development and social equity. On this basis, it explores the feasibility and future prospects of external capital-driven rural transformation in other rural areas of China and provides reference for the transformation and development of those areas.
