论建设社会主义法治国家中的地方

On the Local Government in Building the Rule of Law in A Socialist Country

实现"建设社会主义法治国家"的宪法目标,地方的意义不可替代。实践中,地方既表现出法治建设的积极性,也呈现出一些问题,其原因在于国家治理结构中的地方双重角色。建设社会主义法治国家应以国家全面法治为目标。为此,必须重视地方的独特功能,从制度上塑造和规范地方自主。作为动态平衡过程的央地关系,应当以建构基于规则的、更具稳定性的法治秩序作为出发点与评价标准。着眼于宪法的规范体系,在中央层面,应当明确"中央统一领导"的规范内涵;在地方层面,应当为地方的主动性和积极性提供制度保障,形成民主的地方治理结构与自我负责的理念。

To achieve the aim of"building the rule of law in a socialist country",local governments play a crucial role.In practice,local governments take the main responsibility to implement the law and at the same time present some problems,which lie in the dual role of local governments in the structure of governmental regulation.The goal of building the rule of law requires the rule of law in the whole country.To this end,it is necessary to attach importance to the unique function of local governments and shape the local institutional autonomy.As the relationship between central and local in the process of dynamic balance,we should take the construction of rules-based and more stable legal order as the starting point and evaluation standard.From the normative system of the Chinese Constitution,the meaning of"central unified leadership"should be clearly defined.At the local level,institutional guarantees should be provided for local initiatives.
