The main methods of the adjustment of administrative division are,due to the need of speeding the process of urbanization,establishing more cities(Shi),towns(Zhen),districts directly governed by city(Qu) or Jiedao,from 1979 on in China.But in recent years,there appeared some opposite situation in some areas;namely, some counties,cities or districts were established once again after the annexation,or some areas which were changed from town(Zhen) to Jiedao before,were changed from Jiedao to town(Zhen) once again.We can define such phenomenon as the reverse adjustment of administrative division.The process of the adjustment of administrative division of Zhiying Town,Yongkang City,which in 2001 was changed from Town to Jiedao and in 2009 was changed again from Jiedao to Town,is a typical case of such reverse adjustment.This article takes the research process of the adjustment plan of administrative division of Yongkang City in 2008 as an example,gives a detailed introduction to the problems which existed under the system of Jiedao,and analyses the necessity and feasibility of such adjustment.On the basis of the case study,the authors analyze the causes of such reverse adjustment phenomenon of administrative division in contemporary China.
