转型期的中国公民社会:发展与前瞻

China's Civil Society during Transition Period: Development and Prospect

随着市场经济和民主政治的发展,中国的公民社会正在迅速崛起。公民社会能够沟通政府与公民,重塑政府与社会的关系,制约政府权力,推进民主进程,有效解决社会矛盾与冲突。中国公民社会的发展面临着历史文化传统、当政者的价值理念、政治制度环境、市场经济的不完善发展、公民社会自身的缺陷等一系列现实障碍。我国应该正视当下公民社会官民二重性的客观现实,借鉴后发国家已经成功的法团主义路径,探索具有中国特色的道路,实现由国家法团主义向社会法团主义的转型。

With the development of marketing economy and democratic politics, civil society in China is rising rapidly. The civil society could link the government and citizens, remodel the relationship between the government and society, restrict the power of the government, promote the democratic process and effectively resolve social contradictions and conflicts. China＇s civil society is inevitably confronted with many predicaments such as historical and cultural tradition, the values of those in power, political system environment, the imper- fect development of marketing economy and civil society＇s own shortcoming. In view of these difficulties, China should face up to the objective reality of official and non-official dual property, draw on the experience of the growing country＇s corporatism path to explore a road with Chinese characteristics and realize the transformation from state corporatism to the social corporatism.
