Abstract: The formation ofa stranger community is closely connected with the individualization of social relations，the housing system reform and the large-scale urbanization.Compared with the acquaintance community，governance of the stranger community has fallen into a dilemma，such as the transfer of the focus of social governance，the reconstruction of social trust，and the participation of community building.To get out of the governance dilemma in the stranger community，it is important to re-understand the community，to pay attention to get back the acquaintances，and to properly build the interest and emotional community.

Key words: stranger community, governance dilemma, interest and emotional community
