Abstract: The implementation path of social stability risk assessment has brought about more concerns to Chinese local officials, and increasingly become one of the prominent problems in practical work. By adopting the grounded theory, this paper introduces the theoretical perspectives of policy implementation, gathers data from Z County through in-depth interviews, and undertakes an explorative identification research of the influential factors of social stability risk assessment for grassroots government. The study indicates that the four main categories that exert significant effects on social stability risk assessment at the grass-roots county level are implicit awareness, implementation costs, administrative specifications and system tools. On this basis, some constructive viewpoints are further proposed to scientifically promote social stability risk assessment for grass-roots government, as is of practical significance.

Key words: social stability risk assessment, policy implementation, grounded theory, grassroots government
