General secretary on democracy

2021-11-26

In mid October, an important meeting of high standard, the working meeting of the Central People's Congress, was held in Beijing. The conference in the name of the "working session of the Central People's Congress" is the first in the history of the party and the history of the people's Congress system. *** Among them, the discussions on "democracy" and "people's democracy in the whole process" deserve special attention. Democracy cannot be the same There is no doubt that democracy is the common value of all mankind. The Communist Party of China and the Chinese people unswervingly adhere to the important value orientation of democracy. However, it is impossible for a country's political system to be divorced from specific social realistic conditions. Therefore, there are many ways to realize democracy and it is impossible to be uniform. It is undemocratic to use a single yardstick to measure the world's rich and colorful political systems and to examine the colorful political civilization of mankind from a monotonous perspective. The shoes don't fit until you wear them. *** Whether a country is democratic or not should be judged by the people of the country, not by a few people outside. Whether a country in the international community is democratic or not should be judged by the international community, not by a small number of self righteous countries. How to judge whether a country is democratic or not? *** It depends on what verbal promises the people have received during the election process, but also on how much these promises have been realized after the election; It depends on what kind of political procedures and rules are stipulated by the system and law, and it also depends on whether these systems and laws are really implemented; We should see whether the rules and procedures for the operation of power are democratic, but also whether power is really supervised and restricted by the people. Democracy is not an ornament, not a decoration, but to solve the problems that the people need to solve. Therefore, it is not enough to simply rely on voting to judge whether a country has truly achieved people's ownership. If the people only wake up when they vote and enter a dormant period after they vote, only listen to exaggerated slogans during the election and have no right to speak after the election, and only be favored during the canvassing and ignored after the election, such democracy is not a real democracy. How to evaluate whether a country's political system is democratic and effective? *** Whether all talents can enter the national leadership and management system through fair competition, whether the ruling party can achieve leadership over national affairs in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution and laws, and whether the use of power can be effectively restricted and supervised. In today's world, institutional competition is an important aspect of comprehensive national strength competition, and institutional advantage is an important advantage for a country to win strategic initiative. In the face of great changes that have not been seen in a century full of risks, challenges and even waves, whoever can go smoothly and well in the process of improving system construction and improving governance efficiency will be better able to use institutional advantages to deal with all kinds of risk challenges. The reason why China has been able to achieve the "two wonders" of rapid economic development and long-term social stability in just a few decades is precisely because it has adhered to and developed the people's Congress system, organically combined the party's leadership, the people's ownership of the country and the rule of law, and effectively ensured that national governance has jumped out of the historical cycle of the rise and fall of chaos, It has effectively ensured that the country's political life is full of vitality, stability and order. What is "people's democracy in the whole process"? *** *** *** *** Full coverage democracy is the most extensive, authentic and effective socialist democracy. The whole process of people's democracy embodies the constitutional principle that all state power belongs to the people. The people fully express their opinions in the broad participation, so that the design and operation of various national systems can meet the expectations of the overwhelming majority of the people and safeguard the interests of the overwhelming majority of the people. How to strengthen and improve the work of the people's Congress? The people's Congress system is an important institutional carrier to realize the whole process of people's democracy in China. *** The requirements include six aspects: fully implement the Constitution and safeguard the authority and dignity of the constitution; Accelerate the improvement of the socialist legal system with Chinese characteristics, promote development with good laws and ensure good governance; Make good use of the supervisory power granted by the constitution to the people's Congress and implement correct, effective and legal supervision; Give full play to the role of deputies to the National People's Congress, so that the people call and I respond; Strengthen the consciousness of political organs and strengthen the self construction of the people's Congress; Strengthen the party's overall leadership over the work of the National People's Congress. *** (outlook new era)
