人民民主:社会主义协商民主的生命

People’s Democracy:Life of Socialism Consultative Democracy

西方协商民主理论传到中国,正值中国民主建设刚刚起步之际,许多学者不可避免地要受其影响,将西方协商民主理论与我国的政治协商制度联系起来研究。人民民主是社会主义协商民主的生命这一命题的提出,其现实意义在于明确了社会主义协商民主与西方协商民主是两种不同类型的民主,有着本质的区别,明确了社会主义协商民主与人民民主的关系,即人民民主是社会主义协商民主的本质和追求目标,而社会主义协商民主的发展又为人民民主提供了旺盛的活力。

At the beginning stage of China’s democratic construction,the theory of Western consultative democracy spread to China,and many scholars were unavoidably affected,linking this theory to China’s political consultation system.The premise that people’s democracy is the life of socialism consultative democracy actually makes clear that socialism consultative democracy and Western consultative democracy are totally different types of democracy, and makes clear the relationship between socialism consultative democracy and people’s democracy：people’s democracy is the essential part and goal of socialism consultative democracy,while the development of socialism consultative democracy provides strong energy for the development of people’s democracy.
