重复集体访:诉求类型与信访强度

Repeat Collective Petitions: Issue Domain and Petition Intensity

通过对A市在2010~2014年间发生的重复集体访案件进行分析,文章发现:第一,重复集体访主要发生在征地拆迁、民事纠纷、劳动争议等诉求领域,信访诉求多与访民切身利益密切相关。第二,如果从信访频率和信访规模这两个维度来理解信访强度,那么,民事纠纷和劳动争议类上访的强度显著高于征地拆迁类。第三,越是强度高的信访越不容易得到快速解决。强度高的信访行为主要发生在民事纠纷和劳动争议这样的"非行政信访"纠纷领域。这类纠纷与政府无直接关系,理应通过司法途径加以解决,却大量涌入了行政信访渠道。这可能是导致这类纠纷难以在行政信访系统得到快速解决的重要原因。

By studying the repeat collective petitions in City A from 2010 to 2014, this study finds that: (1) The repeat collective petitions are mostly on issues of land expropriation and housing demolition, civil disputes, and labor disputes;(2) The petition intensity, composed of the frequency and the scope of the petition, is found higher in civil and labor disputes petitions than land resumption and demolition petitions;(3) Petitions with higher intensity are more difficult to be solved. One possible reason is that those more intensive petitions are mostly on non-public disputes such as labor and civil disputes. These disputes are neither caused by public policies nor government behavior. Theoretically, they should be dealt with through legal process instead of the administrative channel, but eventually they have been crowded into the petition system. This is one of the reasons why the petition system is incapable of responding the petition demands effectively.
