基层治理创新模式的质疑与辨析——基于东西部基层治理实践的比较分析

Discrimination on Creative Model of Grass-root Governance——Analysis Based on Comparing the East with the West in China

基层治理创新最重要的是实践,而不是不断推出来的所谓模式。许许多多的模式,只是现行制度的实践,而不能成为推动现行制度有所创新的能够制度化、可以被模仿、并被认可的模式。因此,与其不断推出经不起检验的所谓模式,不如关注基层丰富多样的实践特点。它的意义在于,从经验积累当中找到可以不断改进治理的措施和方向,而且,只有从经验事实中,才能进行创造性的探索和富有成果的制度变革,才能把那些证明具有稳定性、有效性的成功实践经验固定化,并促其进入正式政策和法律体系当中。不然,不是从长期实践中总结出来的而是在政治权衡或政绩竞赛以及学术功利化下设计出来的所谓"模式",就不能有多大制度变革意义上的促进和示范作用。

The most important thing about the innovation of grass-root governance is practical experience,rather than so-called models manufactured by some people.The key is that almost all of the models are constrained in existing system,and not able to propel the existing system to a point where the model can be institutionalized,emulated and,most importantly,recognized.Hence,it is better to pay attention to varieties of grass-root practical experience rather than the models which can not be tested.The significance of this is that the method and direction can be found to improve governance from the accumulated experience.Besides,we cannot make creative adventure and fruitful institution change until we learn from practical experience.Otherwise,the socalled model we get is based on political manipulation or political performance competition rather than on long-term practical experience.As a result,it cannot play a role in promoting institution reform.
