论新加坡国家创建对于人民行动党成立与发展的意义

On the Significance of Singapore's State-building to PAP's Establishment and Development

在现代政治生活中,执政不是在执政党单独行动中实现的,而是在执政党与社会、国家三方有效互动中实现的。二战后到1959年这一时期,是新加坡建国的重要时期,也是人民行动党发展壮大的重要时期。人民行动党的发展寓于新加坡建国的过程之中:林德宪制的制定与实施,促成了人民行动党的成立并影响了它的结构;战后新加坡选民人数的增加,为人民行动党的发展奠定了群众基础;1957年市议会选举的胜利,使人民行动党部分地走上执政地位;新加坡自治宪法的实施,最终使人民行动党走上完全执政地位。新加坡国家创建对于人民行动党的成立和发展有着重要的意义。

In modern political life, the ruling party governs from effective interaction among the ruling party, society and the state instead of its own implementation alone. The period from the end of World War Ⅱ to 1959 was an important period of Singapore＇s state-building and also crucial to the development of the People＇s Action Party （PAP）. PAPs development resided in the process of Singapore＇s nation-building： Rendel Constitution helped to bring about the foundation of the PAP and effected its structures The increase of Constituency established a basis for the development of PAPs The victory in Singapore city council election in 1957 brought PAP partly into power and at last the constitution of 1959 finally made PAP a ruling party. The State building of Singapore was of great significance to PAPas establishment and development.
