Abstract: This paper mainly expounds the three perspectives of rural public goods supply. The economic base theory insists that the supply of public goods depends on the development of village economy; democracy promotion theory holds that improvement of the villager autonomy system will enhance the supply of public goods and performance; the non institutional factors with clan network, cultural practices and social capital as the carrier also have impact on the supply of rural public goods. The above three perspectives represent the main ways of thinking about the supply of public goods in Chinas rural areas, but there are some deficiencies respectively in these three explanations.

摘要： 本文主要综述了农村公共物品供给研究的三个分析视角：经济基础论认为公共物品的供给取决于村庄经济发展状况；民主促进论认为村民自治制度的完善提升了公共物品供给的绩效；而以宗族网络、文化惯例和社会资本等为载体的非制度因素也对农村公共物品供给产生影响。上述三个视角代表了学界对中国农村公共物品供给研究的主要思考进路，不过它们各自存在一定的不足。
