Abstract:

Rural vocational education is a type of cross-border coordinated and integrated education. The “self-system” of education must cross the “other system” of rural society, and merge into a “super system”, so as to truly form the integrated and modernization development pattern of vocational education and rural society. The development of “super system” of rural vocational education ought to follow the symbiotic logic and systematic thinking paradigm (value thinking, structural thinking and relational thinking) of “self-system” and “other system”. It is interdependent and symbiotic development in cross-border coordination and integration governance, which is exactly the logical path and value essence of the development of rural vocational education. The theoretical logic of the development of rural vocational education is to take system symbiosis as the development premise, systematic thinking as the methodological paradigm, the structural elements of symbiosis theory as the analytical framework, and the “super system” realm as the position, and build a symbiotic logic system composed of symbiotic unit, symbiotic mode, symbiotic environment and symbiotic interface. Based on the symbiotic logic system, the logical structure of the symbiotic system of rural vocational education includes three structural forms: starting point logic, value logic and action logic. The starting point logic focuses on “rationality” and “spirit”; the value logic is embodied in the “principle of benefit maximization”; and the logic of action is embodied in “integration and co-governance”.

Key words: rural vocational education, symbiosis, symbiotic logic, integration and co-governance
