中文摘要：

从秩序的角度来看，人类生活在原始秩序和扩展秩序中，原始秩序和扩展秩序各有各的特点，各有各的价值，无论自由还是参与，都有其各自的意义。中国的城市小区是物理封闭的、扩展的非原始秩序，它是在住房市场化过程中发展起来的，它的进一步发展需要发展自身的治理体系和提升自身的治理能力，同时也要处理好各个方面的关系，以及发展相应的公共参与。通过阐发人类秩序和社区治理的纯理论，从秩序理论的层面透视中国城市小区的治理和参与发展的现状，可以简要透视国家民政部最近两年着力推进的“三社联动”的政策。

英文摘要：

From the perspective of order, human beings live in both original order and extended order, each with its own characteristics and values. Whether it is freedom or participation,it has its own significance. China＇s urban residential area is physically enclosed,following the extended order,rather than the original order. It had been developed in the process of hous- ing market. Its further development requires the development of its own governance system and the elevation of its capacity to govern. At the same time, it should properly handle its relationship with all stakeholders and the development of appropriate public participation. This article elaborates on the pure theories concerning human order and community governance, and analyzes the status quo of China＇s residential areas from the perspective of order theories. It also offers a brief discussion of the national policy from Ministry of Civil Affairs over the last two years focused on joint operations of three organizations.
