As a new system of national governance, project system takes increasingly broad and deep impact on the economic and social development of China. Literature review reflects that domestic researches are taken based on five main issues, study fruits are achieved mainly in the past five years; foreign researches have got a certain basis. However, theoretical study has two outstanding problems: the first is a lack of research perspective, which emphases on the macro level and the view of government but ignores the response of grassroots village; the second is the unbalance of research topic which causes the study of occurrence and prevention mechanism weak. Therefore, "village response" becomes a new path for the future research. By the new path, practical logic and problem causes of projects entering the village could be explored and effective methods could be found to improve the pattern of grassroots governance, also to prevent the negative effect of project system and promote its positive practical effect.
