闽西传统村落是福建聚落文化中的重要一环,但随着城镇化进程的驶来,使得许多村落的内在动力严重不足,这必然导致了村落的衰败。为了应对这一进程,当地政府与群众纷纷提出了发展旅游,建设美丽新农村的口号,这虽然暂时缓解了村落内在动力不足的问题,村落在发展过程中也对自身造成了一定的破坏,究竟是要保护还是要发展,我们应当何去何从?

Although this temporarily alleviates the problem of lack of internal motivation in villages, the village has also caused some damage to itself in the course of its development. To protect or to develop, where should we go?
