城乡统筹与协调:中国发展道路的反思与调整

Balancing and Coordinating Urban and Rural Development:Rethinking and Readjusting the Chinese Development Path

回顾建国以来我国的发展道路,由于受国际、国内环境等诸多因素的影响,中国选择了一条优先发展工业,特别是重工业之路。由此,长期以来我国走的是农业支援工业、农村支援城市的发展道路。进入21世纪后,以胡锦涛为总书记的党中央对国家发展道路及时进行调整,实施工业反哺农业、城市支持农业,采取城乡统筹的方式,走城乡协调发展之路。这既是构建和谐社会的要求,具有较强的理论基础,又有国际经验可供借鉴。

In retrospect , China chose a development path giving priority to industry , particularly to heavy industry , after the founding of the People, Republic of China ,owing to various domestic and international factors. Correspondingly , China followed a path whereby agriculture supported industry and countryside supported cities. Since the turn of the century, the Party Central Committee , with Comrade Hu Jintao as General Secretary, has readjusted the development path in a timely manner, following a path of balancing and coordinating urban and rural development, whereby industry supports agriculture and cities support countryside. As the requirement of building a harmonious society, this has strong theoretical grounds and can draw from international experience.
