摘要
作为国家最高权力机关,宪法赋予全国人大及其常委会广泛的外交权。在实际政治生活中,全国人大及其常委会不仅通过行使立法、人事任免、监督等权力参与国家外交政策的制定与执行,还积极开展议会外交,在国家总体外交中的作用日益凸显。在全球化和信息化日益发展的时代背景下,全国人大应在增强立法的主动性和前瞻性、加强对外交政策制定和执行的监督、切实发挥民意表达与聚合的功能及加大议会外交的力度等方面做出努力,以有效地发挥其外交职能。
As the highest organ of state power,the National People's Congress and its Standing Committee has been entrusted with extensive diplomatic powers. In the actual political life,the National People's Congress and its Standing Committee not only take part in the making and implementation of the country's foreign policies by exercising its powers in legislation,personnel appointments and removals,supervision etc.,but also actively carry out parliament diplomacy,playing an increasingly prominent role in China's general diplomacy. In the times of rapid development of globalization and informationization,the National People's Congress should make more efforts to increase its initiative and foresightedness in legislation,strengthen its supervision in the making and implementation of foreign policies,practically perform its function to express and aggregate the will of the people,and develop parliament diplomacy,so as to exercise its diplomatic functions more effectively.
