However, there are also some defects and problems in the clan commune system. For example, under the clan commune system, individual freedom is bound, and it is difficult for individuals to leave the collective life and choose their own way of life freely; At the same time, there is also a hierarchy within the clan commune, and senior leaders enjoy privileges. In practice, there are also some defects in the operation of clan commune system, such as imperfect management system and inadequate style education.

Although there are some problems in practice, it also provides important historical experience for rural reform and development in China. In the future rural development, we need to further sum up experience, optimize the system, make it play a better role and contribute to rural modernization.
