基层政府化解社会矛盾纠纷的法治化机制

The Legal Mechanism for the Basic-level Government to Settle the Social Disputes

基层政府化解社会矛盾纠纷是指地方政府以中立立场处理社会矛盾纠纷,这是地方政府的法定职责。作为连接上级政府和下层百姓的基层政府,既要完成国家各项指标和任务,又要为基层百姓提供社会管理服务,双重重压下,陷于各种社会矛盾纠纷之中,使解决纠纷存在以下困境:基层政府的经济利益共同体性质,动摇了调停人的中立地位;管理领域过大,出现化解纠纷的法律掌握不准、依据不足;政府官员腐败枉法,丧失公信力,滑入"塔西佗陷阱";民众过分依赖领导批示解决纠纷,导致化解纠纷的法律程序虚置。通过加强基层政府体制改革,调整对基层政府的考核机制;完善相关立法,建立地方政府官员廉洁自律、守法执法的约束机制;畅通法治方式渠道,规范各种纠纷解决机制。以此实现基层政府化解社会矛盾纠纷法治化。
