Abstract: As a buffer between the individuals and the country， the community constitutes a very important force in social management. In an innovative social management characterized by “leadership by the party committee， responsibility shouldered by the government， social cooperation and public participation”， making full use of social cooperation and encouraging public participation are regarded as the foothold and fundamental guarantee， whose realization largely relies on the cultivation of modern communities. It is believed that modern communities have their distinct advantages in promoting public participation， activating the individuals subjectivity and vitality of society， providing social services， bringing into play social cooperation and so on. Hence， it is of practical significance to overcome the bottleneck of modern community cultivation， to prompt the development of modern communities and to enhance the innovation of social management.
