市场经济、公民社会与我国民主政治的成长

Market Economy, Civil Society and the Growth of Democracy in China

市民社会是市场经济的必然产物,而市场经济进一步发展的前提条件又是市民社会的发育和成长。如同市场经济相对于市民社会的不可或缺,公民社会相对于现代民主政治也是不可或缺的。随着市场经济日渐走向成熟,我国公民社会的成长已经迈出了最初的一步并且也已经成为一支政党政府不可忽视的重要的政治力量。公民社会强有力的政治要求将会使政治改革和社会主义民主法治向纵深推进。

Civil society is the inevitable outcome of market economy, while in return the further development of market economy is a prerequisite for the development and growth of civil society. Just as market economy played an essential part in civil society, and civil society is also indispensable for the modem democratic politics. With the growing maturity of the market economy, the growth of civil society in China has taken the first step and also has become an important political force that can not ignored by any political party and government. Its great political demands will promote further development of political reform and socialist democracy.
