Construction of Grassroots Direct Democracy System:Practical Value,Intrinsic Tension,and Development Path
Grassroots governance is the foundation of all political life,and its core is grassroots democracy.The construction of a grassroots direct democracy system is a specific path to implement the Party's leadership system in grassroots society,which helps to improve the system of the people being the masters of the country,promote the"down-to-earth"development of the system of the peo-ple being the masters of the country,facilitate the interconnection between grassroots direct democracy and grassroots governance,a-chieve innovation in grassroots governance,and stimulate the vitality of grassroots governance.To improve the grassroots direct democ-racy system,it is necessary to pay attention to the inherent tension faced by the construction of the grassroots direct democracy system,namely the gap between the normative democratic goals and the democratic reality under the grassroots direct democracy system,the de-tachment phenomenon between institutional norms and practical operation,and the need for adjustment between the main functions and program design.The key to building a sound grassroots direct democracy system lies in solving the problems of incomplete institutional structure,incomplete coverage,and unsmooth relationships of grassroots democracy,resolving the tension between the ideals and real-ity,principles and systems,stability and development of grassroots democracy,and solving the practical problems so as to enhance the conceptual awareness,institutional consciousness,and capacity of grassroots democracy.Taking the path of democracy and the rule of law,facing the grassroots problems induced by the logic of modernization development,adhering to the principle of people-oriented,and enhancing the pertinence and flexibility of grassroots democratic systems,will achieve the improvement and development of the grassroots direct democratic system at a higher level.
