The guest of the first keynote speech of the conference isProfessor Zhang Shuhua, Executive Vice President of the Chinese Political Society, Director of the Institute of Political Science, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and Dean of the w88 casino of Government, University of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Zhang Shuhua pointed out that understanding the whole-process people's democracy should be grasped from seven aspects: first, understanding the whole-process people's democracy from the perspective of political propaganda; second, making an ideological summary around the whole-process people's democracy; third, theoretically interpreting the whole-process people's democracy; fourth, academic exploration and pursuit of the whole-process people's democracy; fifth, exploring how the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference implement the institutional arrangements for the whole-process people's democracy; sixth, exploring the practical path of the whole-process people's democracy; and seventh, how to describe the whole-process people's democracy to the outside world. Zhang Shuhua systematically summarized and explained the major theoretical and practical issues in the whole process of people's democracy from fifteen aspects.
The guest of the second keynote speech of the conference isProfessor Yang Haijiao, Executive Deputy Director of the Academic Committee of the Chinese Political Society and former Deputy Director of the Institute of Political Science, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. In his keynote speech, Yang Haijiao pointed out that the w88 casino organized this academic seminar with a distinctive theme with great wisdom and determination, which fully demonstrated the extremely high political position of the w88 casino, the enthusiasm and consciousness of fully implementing the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and the persistence and sentiments for theoretical research in political science. He explained the concept of whole-process people's democracy from the aspects of distinctive characteristics of the times, high degree of generality, systematic and comprehensive content, and clear guidance. He believes that the theory and specific practice of whole-process people's democracy fully demonstrate the essence and great advantages of socialist democracy in terms of participating subjects, participation processes, participation fields, participation links, participation effects, etc., showing its incomparable characteristics with other democracies.
The meeting will be followed by four units of theme seminars. The first unit was hosted by Professor Tong Dezhi, Vice President of Tianjin Normal University and Vice President of the Chinese Political Society.Former Vice President of East China University of Political Science and Law, Professor Zhang Mingjun of Shanghai Jiao Tong University w88 casino of International and Public Affairsbelieves that whole-process people's democracy is not a simple sum of people's democracy and "whole process", but a form of democracy in which people's democracy is integrated into the connotation of "whole process" and in which the people can better exercise their right to be the masters of the country and have higher efficiency. Vertical continuity, horizontal full range and dynamic coherence are multiple interpretations of the "whole process" orientation. Attention should be paid to achieving full participation in the process through deliberative democracy, and legitimizing the results of deliberative democracy through voting democracy.Associate Professor Chen Chengxin, Assistant Dean of the w88 casino of Government, University of Chinese Academy of Social Sciencesbelieves that the construction of people's democratic discourse throughout the entire process must reflect the people-centered concept. This kind of discourse must be realized and continuously developed to have constructive significance. The whole process of people's democracy depends on the procedures and operation of the system. The leadership of the Communist Party of China is the fundamental guarantee for the development of people's democracy throughout the entire process and the unity between the discourse and practice of people's democracy throughout the process.Professor Zhao Kejin, Vice Dean of the w88 casino of Social Sciences, Tsinghua Universitybelieves that the Chinese people’s understanding of democracy not only has a strong people-oriented flavor in ancient China, but also has the tradition of Marxism and Leninism. Today we propose a full-process people's democracy, which also has a unique international and domestic background. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China formally regards the whole-process people's democracy as an essential requirement of Chinese modernization, which actually marks that our understanding of the political form of socialist democracy with Chinese characteristics has been finalized and matured.Professor Cheng Tongshun, Vice Dean of Zhou Enlai w88 casino of Government, Nankai Universitybelieves that democracy is not just a system and procedure, not just a practice and operation, but also a value pursuit, and more importantly, a level of quality, that is, the upward nature of democracy, including noble goals; positive value orientation; civilized practice; and good performance. Since it is proposed to "develop people's democracy in the whole process", it means that there is still broad room for development of people's democracy in the whole process.Professor Kong Fanbin, Dean of w88 casino of Government, Nanjing Universitybelieves that exploring the whole process of people's democracy is a response to the contemporary nature and modernization of democratic theory. Whole-process people's democracy is actually the promotion and interpretation of the specific implementation of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China in the era of governance. The democratic rights of the whole process include structural rights and operational rights. The whole process of people's democracy mainly provides accumulated wisdom for solving modern administrative management problems and provides a new perspective for the reform of the administrative system.
The second unit of the conference was hosted by Professor Chen Jiagang from the w88 casino of Marxism, Renmin University of China.Professor Zhang Xianming, Dean of the w88 casino of Administration of Jilin University and Vice President of the Chinese Political SocietyThe concept of whole-process people's democracy is discussed from two aspects: theoretical connotation and way of advancement. He believes that the theoretical connotation of this concept makes the concept of democracy more profound, the people's dominant position more tangible, and the practical direction of democracy clearer. In terms of specific ways to advance, Zhang Xianming believes that first, the institutional level of democracy should be improved through whole-process construction; secondly, the quality of democracy should be improved through full-process responsibility; and finally, the responsiveness of democracy should be improved through full-process supervision.Professor Pang Jinyou, Vice Dean of the w88 casino of Politics and Public Administration, China University of Political Science and LawThis concept is explained from the perspectives of the historical background of whole-process people's democracy, the theoretical implications of whole-process people's democracy, and the practical path of whole-process people's democracy. He believes that the entire process of people's democracy must be grasped from the two overlapping backgrounds of the long-term macro perspective and the current micro-level Chinese-style modernization. To realize the whole process of people's democracy, we must strengthen the party's leading position, improve the people's democratic literacy, strengthen the implementation of democratic systems, improve the guarantee mechanism of digital democracy, and enhance the international voice of Chinese-style democracy.Professor Chai Baoyong, Director of the Research Center for Intra-Party Regulations and State Supervision at the University of Chinese Academy of Social SciencesFrom the perspective of the relationship between full-process people's democracy and Chinese-style modernization, it is pointed out that full-process people's democracy is the essential attribute of socialist democratic politics; developing full-process people's democracy is the essential requirement of Chinese-style modernization. He believes that these two essences clarify the relationship between full-process people's democracy and Chinese-style modernization. When studying the relationship in depth, on the one hand, we must integrate the research framework and develop a comprehensive understanding of the whole-process people's democracy; on the other hand, we must enrich and expand the conceptual connotation of full-process people's democracy on the basis of deepening basic theoretical research.Professor Huo Wei'an, Vice Dean of the w88 casino of International Relations, w88 casinoFrom the perspective of the history of Western political thought, it is pointed out that for more than two thousand years, there have been criticisms of democracy in academic circles, fearing that democracy will lead to a decline in the quality of decision-making. After briefly sorting out the criticisms of democracy, he responded to these criticisms from the perspective of whole-process people's democracy, believing that whole-process people's democracy can provide arguments for the rationality and superiority of democratic politics from the perspective of the epistemological value of democracy. This is a very fruitful and potential path.Professor Ye Jing, w88 casino of International Relations, w88 casinoThrough in-depth research and case analysis on participatory budget reform, it is pointed out that whole-process people's democracy is not a summary of Chinese politics in recent years, but a historical process. It is not only a top-down appeal, but also a two-way process. It is an interactive system evolution path between the grassroots and the central government, and the result of mutual exploration and innovation between the central and local governments.Professor Liu Wei, Dean of the w88 casino of Politics and Public Administration of Wuhan UniversityIn response to the question of how to compare full-process people's democracy with Western democracy, it is pointed out that academic research should not stay at the level of propaganda and interpretation, but should conduct a comprehensive academic comparison from the perspectives of theoretical basis, historical context, institutional system, actual operation, and governance performance. At the same time, on the basis of objective and systematic comparison, it is necessary to conduct follow-up practical research on the entire process of people's democracy.
The third unit of the conference was hosted by Professor Pang Jinyou, Vice Dean of the w88 casino of Politics and Public Administration of China University of Political Science and Law.Professor Tong Dezhi, Vice President of Tianjin Normal University and Vice President of the Chinese Political SocietyProfoundly explains the theoretical logic and practical logic of the whole process of people's democracy. He believes that from a historical perspective, the historical logic of the whole-process people's democracy is constantly developing, enriching and comprehensive, and the theoretical logic of the whole-process people's democracy comes from historical logic. From a practical logic point of view, the entire process of people's democracy must also be continuously institutionalized, standardized, and programmed. This is a basic strategy.Professor Chen Mingming, w88 casino of International Relations and Public Affairs, Fudan UniversityIt profoundly expounds the nature, boundary and operation of the People's Political Consultative Conference in the principles of contemporary Chinese government, and reveals the discord between the CPPCC vase theory and the CPPCC will theory in Western academic circles in the study of the Chinese CPPCC. He believes that observing Chinese politics from the perspective of the nature and operation of the People's Political Consultative Conference is more effective in understanding the principles of Chinese government. Understanding the maximum political boundary of the CPPCC is the key to clarifying the difference between China's representative government and Western representative government.Tan Huosheng, permanent associate professor of the w88 casino of Social Sciences, Tsinghua UniversityFrom the perspective of the composite structure of the CPPCC group representation mechanism and its practical requirements, CPPCC representatives are not pluralist interest representatives, but consultative interest representatives, pursuing consensus rather than fighting for the interests of a certain social interest group. He believes that the group representation mechanism of the CPPCC is a composite structure, which in addition to representing interests, also represents opinions and social perspectives. Through the input of professional opinions and social perspectives, we can help the ruling party make more reasonable and scientific decisions.Professor Ma Xuesong, Vice Dean of the w88 casino of Administration of Jilin UniversityFrom the perspective of the People's Political Consultative Conference gathering consensus throughout the process, the governance will and effectiveness of people's democracy in the entire process are analyzed. From the perspective of consultation and consensus, he discussed the performance and role of the CPPCC in building consensus throughout the process, and put forward a series of suggestions to promote the CPPCC to better perform its effectiveness in building consensus throughout the process.Professor Bao Gangsheng, w88 casino of International Relations and Public Affairs, Fudan UniversityTrying to reinterpret the traditional Chinese political thought of Confucianism, Legalism, and Taoism in the pre-Qin period with a new understanding framework. He believes that Chinese classical political theory should be studied from two aspects: text interpretation and logical reflection. Text interpretation includes problem awareness, theoretical explanations, solutions, and ideal society; logical reflection includes basic human nature presuppositions, individual group relationship presuppositions, theoretical advantages, and logical reflections.Professor Han Donglin, w88 casino of International Relations, Renmin University of Chinagave a speech on the theme of the Chinese public’s perception of a better life in the new era. He used quantitative research methods to study the Chinese people’s good life and its influencing factors under the background of the whole process of people’s democracy. By measuring and studying the three dimensions of a good life, the development of people's democracy throughout the process has gradually and significantly improved people's good life, in which economic development plays a decisive role in the entire good life.Duan Demin, permanent associate professor at Peking University w88 casino of GovernmentTrying to start from the theoretical logic behind the concept and democratic model, think about the difference between full-process people's democracy and other democratic theories and practices, and analyze the theory and practice of full-process people's democracy from the perspective of social progress. He believes that democratic theory and practice coexist in multiple ways. China's political practice is based on people's sovereignty. The theoretical basis of China's democratic practice is social progress, especially the progress of people and society in historical development in the Marxist sense.
The fourth unit of the conference was hosted by Professor Dai Changzheng, Dean of the w88 casino of International Relations/National Security and Governance Research Institute of the w88 casino.Professor Shi Hexing, Deputy Education Director of the Central Party w88 casino (National w88 casino of Administration)By reviewing the proposal and development process of whole-process people's democracy, the whole-process people's democracy is elaborated from four unified perspectives. He believes that the whole-process people's democracy embodies the unity of process democracy and result-based democracy, the unity of procedural democracy and substantive democracy, the unity of direct democracy and indirect democracy, the unity of people's democracy and the national will, highlights the difference between the whole-process people's democracy with Chinese characteristics and democracy in other countries, embodies the essence of people's nature, and finds a new answer for the people to be the masters of the country.Professor Xiao Lihui, Deputy Director of the Political and Legal Teaching and Research Department of the Central Party w88 casino (National w88 casino of Administration)believes that effectively handling the relationship between democracy and unity can not only maintain the vitality of democracy, but also achieve unity and unity. It is necessary to grasp the relationship between the two themes of democracy and unity. Consensus is the link and bridge for the positive correlation between democracy and unity; full-process, multi-level democratic participation is the prerequisite for the consolidation of unity; democratic centralism is an important mechanism for achieving unity through democracy; the leadership of the Communist Party of China is the political premise and institutional guarantee for the positive correlation between democracy and unity.Professor Jing Yuejin, w88 casino of Social Sciences, Tsinghua Universityproposed that to understand the whole-process people's democracy, we must have problem awareness, understand the background and significance of the whole-process people's democracy theory, and also understand the history of our exploration of democracy. He believes that whole-process people's democracy is both an essential concept - people's democracy; and an operational concept - the whole process. It is a concept that integrates value and experience. At the same time, the dual definition of the whole process and people's democracy highlights the dual differences between Chinese democracy and Western democracy, but it also faces dual challenges.Professor Chen Jiagang, w88 casino of Marxism, Renmin University of ChinaProposed that whole-process people's democracy is both a political expression and a political discourse; democracy is obviously foreign, but it also grows out of China's own historical conditions and traditions. He focused on sorting out the historical resources of the Chinese Communist Party’s thinking on democratic issues, and believed that from the conceptual cognition of democratic values, to the design cognition of democratic systems, to the arrangement of democratic procedures, our party is supported by historical foundations and historical resources.Professor Fang Lei, Dean of Qingdao Research Institute of Humanities and Social Sciences of Shandong Universityproposed that intra-party democracy should drive the whole process of people's democracy, and explained it from four aspects: from the perspective of value positioning, using inner-party democracy to gradually promote people's democracy is a practical and easy-to-effective way to develop socialist democratic politics; from the perspective of political logic, intra-party democracy drives the whole process of people's democracy, which reflects The organic unity of the party's overall leadership and the people's ownership of the country; from a political logic perspective, intra-party democracy drives the entire process of people's democracy and can overcome the dual opposition between the state and society; from a practical perspective, if intra-party democracy drives the entire process of people's democracy well, it can play its reasonable role in protecting democratic rights, improving democratic procedures, and restraining intra-party power.Professor Wang Bingquan, w88 casino of Government, University of Chinese Academy of Social SciencesThe whole-process people's democracy is elaborated from three aspects: first, the whole-process people's democracy is a practical issue; second, we should actively promote existing good experiences and practices, and actively promote democratic consultation; third, protect and cultivate the social foundation and carry out appropriate pilots, which can strengthen the social foundation of the whole-process people's democracy, strengthen governance at the grassroots level, and focus on people's livelihood issues.
At the end of the meeting, Professor Dai Changzheng, Dean of the w88 casino of International Relations/National Security and Governance Research Institute of the w88 casinoMake closing remarks. He first pointed out that under the current background that our party and country have proposed important propositions of the times such as creating a new form of human civilization, building a community with a shared future for mankind, and practicing common values for all mankind, the theme of this meeting is particularly important. The experts and scholars attending the meeting today conducted in-depth thinking and discussions on the whole process of people's democracy from multiple dimensions such as theory and scholarship, path and practice, history and logic, and a comparative perspective between China and the West, thus ensuring that this meeting will become a high-level and high-quality academic seminar. Dai Changzheng emphasized that as a major theme in today's world politics, the study of democracy still has a long way to go. Democracy as a theoretical form, democracy as a political system, democracy as a decision-making mechanism, democracy as a practice and movement form, democracy as a social association mechanism, and democracy as a governance method are all major propositions in the study of democracy and deserve continued in-depth discussion by the academic community. Finally, Dai Changzheng expressed his sincere gratitude to all the guests present, and the meeting concluded successfully.
