The authority of village level governance in China is undergoing a process of transition from traditional authority to rule of law authority, with significant changes in governance subjects, methods, and models. To build the authority of the rule of law in rural areas, it is necessary to cultivate public respect for and belief in the law, thereby internalizing the concept of legal authority. Therefore, multiple channels are needed to jointly build the authority of rural rule of law and promote the further realization of the goal of rural rule of law spirit. This article analyzes the current situation of the rule of law authority in rural China, understands the main reasons for the chaotic structure and mechanism of rural authority, and analyzes the reasons for the lack of rural rule of law authority from three aspects: legal creation, legal operation, and legal popularization. Finally, it sorts out what methods should be taken to build rural rule of law authority from three aspects: policy and regulations, village autonomy, and legal consciousness.
