民主标准问题的中国方案

The China Program on Democratic Standards

衡量政治制度是否民主的标准,是一个国家发展民主政治的基本前提。多党竞争、三权分立与自由选举,是以美国为首的西方国家基于自己的国情设定的民主标准,但并不具有普遍适用性。能否充分调动人民积极性、保持高效率和社会稳定,是邓小平为中国特色社会主义民主设定的基本标准。在此基础之上,习近平提出的评价一个国家政治制度是否民主的八条标准,是中国共产党关于民主标准问题的制度化成果。中国人民正在以自己的探索,为人类社会民主政治的发展,提出崭新的中国方案,作出自己的独特贡献。

The standards for judging whether a political system is democratic are a basic prerequisite for the development of democratic politics. Multi-party competition, separation of powers and free elections are the democratic standards set by the US-led Western countries based on their own national conditions, but they are not universally applicable. Fully mobilizing the enthusiasm of the people and maintaining high efficiency and social stability is the basic standard Deng Xiaoping set for the socialist democracy with Chinese characteristics. On this basis, Xi Jinping proposes the eight criteria for evaluating whether a national political system is democratic, which are the institutionalization result of the CPC on the issue of democratic standards. The Chinese people are exploring for the development of democratic politics of the human society, and put forward a new China program, thus making their own unique contribution.
