The Innovative Practices,Historical Experiences,and Significant Value of the People's Congress System from Conception to Formal Establishment
The conception of the system of people's congresses emerged from the practice of establishing rural and urban political power,including the Chinese Soviet Republic,Soviet Republics,border region councils,and consultative assemblies,under the leadership of the Communist Party of China.It is the result of theoretical reflection on these practical experiences.Rather than being implemented immediately,the system of people's congresses was put into practice following a series of innovative political power construction experiences,such as representative conferences from various sectors,people's representative conferences from various sectors,the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference,and local people's congresses from various sectors.These practices accumulated rich experience,with the following key lessons learned:adhering to Marxism as the guide to promote the sinicization of Marxist theory on political power construction;prioritizing the people and highlighting the people-oriented nature of political power construction;keeping pace with the times and continuously innovating the organizational form of political power;and proceeding from reality with a focus on practical democracy.These innovative practical experiences hold significant value for advancing the work of people's congresses in development zones and promoting whole-process people's democracy:adhering to Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era as the guide to promote comprehensive coverage of the work of people's congresses in development zones;prioritizing the people to enhance the quality and efficiency of the work of people's congresses in development zones;keeping pace with the times to actively promote innovation in the work of people's congresses in development zones;adhering to both national and local legislation to promote the legalization of the work of people's congresses in development zones;developing whole-process people's democracy with a focus on democratic effectiveness;combining theoretical,legal,policy,and experiential guidance to fully leverage the role of these"four guidances";upholding the leadership of the Party and serving the overall situation by centering on key tasks;and adhering to the unified leadership of the central government while fully leveraging local enthusiasm and creativity.
