Theoretical logic,practical dilemmas,and implementation pathways of rural area clustering for common prosperity
In advancing common prosperity, the development of rural area clusters is regarded as a key pathway to break down barriers between villages and promote regional coprosperity. Grounded in the theory of regional regeneration, this study constructs an integrated "agent–environment–industry" analytical framework to systematically examine the theoretical logic, practical dilemmas, and implementation pathways through which area clustering fosters common prosperity. The findings indicate that rural clustering, through agent restructuring, environmental enhancement, and industrial cultivation, aims to achieve intervillage resource complementarity and regional value cocreation. However, in practice, it still faces multiple challenges such as the "difficulty of coordination", the "difficulty of integration", and the "difficulty of empowerment", which are manifested mainly in insufficient multiagent collaboration, imbalanced spatial adaptation, and lagging integrated development—all of which constrain the commonprosperity effects . Accordingly, this study proposes that partybuilding alliances should guide multistakeholder collaboration, spatial justice should consolidate the foundation for cluster development, and a unified yet flexible approach should be adopted to activate industrial synergy. These measures can provide theoretical insights and policy guidance for building a new pattern of integrated urbanrural development and driving rural area clusters toward highquality development and common prosperity.
