The Institutional Innovations in Maintaining Overall Situation of Reform, Development and Stability: Focusing on the Social Stability Risk Assessment of Significant Affairs

在新世纪新阶段,重大事项社会稳定风险评估已成为我国各地在改革发展中维护稳定大局的普遍选择。事关人民群众切身利益的重大改革、重大政策、重大决策、重大项目等重大事项,是改革发展不可或缺的推进载体和加速器,同时也是事关改革、发展与稳定三者关系状况的敏感点。重大事项社会稳定风险评估,既是有效破解如何把握改革发展稳定关系难题的制度性创新,也是一种体现稳定工作思维方式、实践方式重大转换和质的飞跃的制度性创新,同时又是以群众利益为本的制度性创新,符合中国特色社会主义事业发展的要求。重大事项社会稳定风险评估制度要全面兑现自己的价值承诺,必须加以改进和完善。

At the new stage of the 21st century, the social stability risk assessment of important affairs has become the common choice for maintaining the overall stability in China. The significant affairs, including those major reforms, policies, decisions, and projects concerning people’s direct interests, play an indispensible part in promoting social development and accelerating the reform process. Besides, they are invariably the sensitive issues concerning the relationship between reform, development and social stability. The social stability risk assessment of significant affairs is actually institutional innovations which enable us to tackle the difficult task of defining the relationship between reform, development and stability. Embodying the substantial changes in our understanding and practice of maintaining social stability, such innovations speak for the principle of people-orientedness and meet the requirement of developing socialism with Chinese characteristics. The mechanism of assessing the important affairs in terms of the risk they will inflict on social stability must be improved and perfected so as to honor its value commitment.
