Research on the Protection and Activation of Traditional Villages Based on the Perspective of Self-Organization Theory—Taking Kegeyi Village as an Example

Traditional villages are the essence of the traditional Chinese culture and an important foundation for China’s development. In recent years, with the acceleration of urbanization and unreasonable development of traditional villages, they disappear. In this case, the protection and development of traditional villages are particularly important. This paper uses self-organization theory and the village as an example. By analyzing the characteristics of “self-organization” within the Kegeyi village system and its current protection problems, from the perspective of self-organization theory, the traditional village protection and activation strategy is proposed.
