Abstract: The integration and remodeling of fragmented communities is the key to promoting community governance,and it is also an important issue of concern for the study of community governance.This paper takes community public safety governance as an object and the “pastoral model”of safety governance in District A of Shanghai as an example to study the driving force and integration mechanism led by Party building in community governance.The findings show that the essence of the“pastoral model”lies in the injected momentum into the community governance through grassroots Party building,thereby leveraging the operation of community public safety and getting rid of the plight of collective action.After years of accumulation and precipitation,the“pastoral model”has formed five major working mechanisms for the governance of community affairs.The leading and integrated role of grassroots Party building has always penetrated through it,forming a“Party embedded”working mechanism.It is through the embedded working mechanism that the will of the political party enables it to take root in community governance,thereby activating the collaborative and cooperative ability among the four main subjects of community governance,and providing continuous driving force and integration for community public safety governance.

Key words: community governance, public safety, leading by Party building, pastoral model
