论中国多党合作制的创新——基于制度变迁理论的分析

On the Innovation of Multi-party Co-operation System in China——An Analysis Based on Institutional Change Theory

制度变迁是参与各方对制度的思想基础达成共识的"制度创新"过程。中国多党合作制历经制度诱致性变迁和强制性变迁两个阶段,是制度创新成功的典范,其在中国社会主义革命和建设中取得的巨大成就表明:在社会转型时期能否保持稳定的政治共识,是能否持续"各守其位,各负其责,求同存异,亲密合作"政治局面的关键。然而,当前社会主义核心价值理念认识的现实主义和理想主义并未有机结合,从而有必要在执政党的推动下,依托社会主义核心价值体系,巩固多党合作和政治协商的思想基础,以继续创新我国多党合作制。这个共同思想应该立足于社会主义制度的基本功能,在社会公平、正义基础上使人民获得最大程度的幸福和自由,以实现和谐社会的现实理想。

Institutional change is an ＂Institutional Innovation＂ process through which all parties involved reach a compromise agreement concerning institutional thinking grounds.Having undergone two phases,namely,institutionally induced change and compulsory change,China＇s multi-party co-operation system sets up a successful model for institutional innovation.Its great achievements in China＇s socialist revolution and construction indicate that,in a social transformational era,the key to maintain a solid political agreement lies in the premise that we should well maintain a political situation in which ＂each party sticks to its position,fulfills its responsibilities,seeks common ground while accepting the existing differences＂.However,there still lacks an effective combination of the realism and idealism in understanding current socialist core value principles,which makes it vitally important to further consolidate and innovate the thinking grounds of multiparty co-operation and political consultation in China,with the ruling party pushing it forward and adhering to the core socialist value system.This mutual thinking ground should be established throughout the fundamental functions of the socialist system,to guarantee the people＇s maximum degree of happiness and freedom,and to realize the practical ideal of harmonious society on the basis of social equality and justice.
