中国共产党依法执政的观念基础

The Conceptual Foundation for the Communist Party of China to Exercise State Power Based on Law

依法执政是我们党历经艰难探索以后确定的、在新的历史条件下执政的基本方式。依法执政是依法治国的核心内容,其本质是要解决社会主义国家的人民当家作主和党的领导相结合的问题。为实施党的依法执政,必须正确认识党领导人民、党的领导和党的执政、执政权力的来源、执政权力的受约束性以及法的本质等一系列问题,从而为践行依法执政奠定观念基础。

Exercising state power on the basis of law is a basic form of ruling in the new historical condition that has been identified by the CPC through arduous exploration. Law-based exercise of state power is the core part of law-based governance of the country. Its essence is to combine the concepts of people as the masters of the country and the leadership of the Party. To execute the law-based exercise of state power, we must correctly understand a series of issues, including the Party leads people, the relations between the leadership of the party and rule by the party, the origin of the power for ruling, constraints on the power of ruling, and the essence of law, so as to lay a solid conceptual foundation for the law-based exercise of state power.
