| dc.description.abstract | The concept of commons in economics and management has been positioned within the heritage field to emphasise their characteristics like Common Pool Resources. Rural heritage governed as commons means building a new understanding of its values, which extends beyond consumerism or state identity to embrace the local community, and implicating dynamic governance processes towards a more sustainable, equal and inclusive development in rural areas. Under the framework of ‘Resources-Governance Community-Governance Systems’ in heritage commons governance and the perspective of transformation of cultural capital, this paper re-examines the two typical eras governance process of a centuries-old village in southwest China. This study first reveals tensions between community heritage versus official heritage and commercial heritage. Secondly, ‘governance community’ is more complex than common sense, particularly, local government has different hierarchies and departments with multiple targets. Besides, an effective conservation and development planning with appropriate mechanisms is the core of coordinating heritage management system, tourism development system, rural revitalisation campaign system, and community self-governance and social-engagement system. Lastly, two cases show that social power and community have the vitality to cover the shortage of physicalised cultural capital, constituting an alternative path towards common benefits and inclusive development of rural heritage communities.
