This year marks the 70th anniversary of the establishment of the National People's Congress,which coincides with the 5th anniversary of the significant concept of whole-process people's democracy being put forward.As we commemorate the 70th anniversary of the National People's Congress today,we must focus on how to develop and realize whole-process people's democracy effectively.To this end,we has jointly organized an academic symposium to comprehensively summarize the historical experience of the Party leading the people in establishing,consolidating,developing,and improving the people's congress system.The symposium also aims to explore how to give full play to the critical institutional carrier role of the people's congress system in realizing whole-process people's democracy,thereby better converting the institutional advantages of the people's congress system into governance effectiveness.Professor Pu Xingzu believes that under the guidance of Mao Zedong's"national system-political system"theory,the people of the CPC and the Chinese people chose and established the People's Congress System as the government system to adapt to and reflect the people's democratic dictatorship.Professor Zeng Jun pointed out that the"Two Combinations"have allowed Marxist political principles to take root,nurtured and gave birth to the new political system of the National People's Congress,and forged a new form of human political civilization.Professor Tian Lei proposed to understand the complicated time structure of the seventy year history of the National People's Congress with the method of"time"by analyzing the legal"five system"time structure of the National People's Congress and the associated"session+time"cumulative organization naming.Professor Sang Yucheng regards the National People's Congress system as a carrier for the production of democratic knowledge and the cultivation of democratic literacy.He points out that the National People's Congress system not only maintains the long-term political stability since the founding of the People's Republic of China,but also creates and accumulates human political knowledge,enriching the achievements of human political civilization.Professor Cheng Zhuru answered from three aspects:fundamental political system attributes,implementation mechanisms,and practical forms,in what sense the National People's Congress system constitutes an important institutional carrier of the entire process of people's democracy.Professor Zhang Xianming emphasized that consultative democracy is an important form of practicing full process people's democracy,and the system of people's congresses,as the core component and important support of full process people's democracy,must also undertake the functions of socialist consultative democracy and have the basic practice of socialist consultative democracy.Professor Shang Hongri explores the concept of whole-process people's democracy from the perspective of political discourse expression in the Constitution,analyzes the expression of the constitutional spirit of whole-process people's democracy,the orientation of constitutional system construction,and the relationship between constitutional practice narrative and whole-process people's democracy narrative.Professor Kong Fanbin advocates building a government governance capacity that adapts to the whole-process people's democracy,with a focus on the ethical ability to reconstruct a sense of respect for the people in the development of the governance community,in the exploration of efficient collaborative performance,in communication with the public,in the ability to recognize the real public,and in the ability to foresee unintended consequences.Professor Shangguan Jiurui pointed out that adhering to the organic unity of the Party's leadership,the people being the masters of the country,and governing the country according to law is a mainline inherent in the theory and practice of the National People's Congress system,and it is also a rule that must be followed in adhering to and improving the National People's Congress system in the new era.
