3. Develop a socialist democratic political system suited to China's national conditions

A country's political system is determined by the country's economic and social foundation, and at the same time, it reacts on the country's economic and social foundation, and even plays a decisive role.

China has distinctive Chinese characteristics in the form of a state system of people's democratic dictatorship led by the working class and based on the alliance of workers and peasants, a system of government under the people's congress system, a system of multiparty cooperation and political consultation under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, a system of regional ethnic autonomy, and a system of mass autonomy at the grassroots level.

Such a set of institutional arrangements is the result of long-term development, gradual improvement, and endogenous evolution on the basis of China's historical inheritance, cultural traditions, and economic and social development, and is a great creation of the Communist Party of China and the Chinese people, which must be adhered to, comprehensively implemented, and continuously developed over a long period of time.

The people's congress system is a fundamental political system arrangement that adheres to the organic unity of the party's leadership, the people being the masters of the country, and governing the country according to law.

The implementation of the people's congress system in China is a great creation of the Chinese people in the history of the human political system, a basic conclusion drawn by profoundly summing up the bitter lessons of China's political life since modern times, a historical result of more than 100 years of radical changes and turbulent development in Chinese society, and an inevitable choice for the Chinese people to turn over and become masters and take control of their own destiny.

Since its establishment more than 60 years ago, the people's congress system has been continuously consolidated and developed in practice, showing vigorous vitality.

History has fully proved that the people's congress system is a good system that conforms to China's national conditions and realities, embodies the nature of a socialist country, ensures that the people are the masters of the country, and guarantees the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

On the journey of struggle in the new era, we must give full play to the role of the people's congress system as a fundamental political system, and continue to firmly hold the future and destiny of the country and the nation in the hands of the people through the people's congress system.

We must unswervingly uphold the party's overall leadership, be good at making the party's propositions become the will of the state through legal procedures, be good at making candidates recommended by party organizations become leaders of state power organs through legal procedures, be good at implementing the party's leadership over the state and society through state power organs, and be good at using the principle of democratic centralism to safeguard the authority of the party and the state and safeguard the unity of the whole party and the whole country; It is necessary to ensure and develop the people as the masters of the country, expand the orderly political participation of citizens at all levels and in all fields, and develop a more extensive, fuller and more sound people's democracy; We must persist in comprehensively advancing the rule of law, institutionalize and legalize democracy, ensure the people's equal participation and equal development rights, safeguard social fairness and justice, respect and protect human rights, and realize the rule of law in all aspects of the country's work.

The system of multiparty cooperation and political consultation under the leadership of the CPC is a basic political system in China, a great political creation of the CPC, the Chinese people, democratic parties, and personages without party affiliation, and a new type of political party system that has grown out of Chinese soil.

This new-type political party system is new in that it is the product of the integration of Marxist political party theory with China's reality, and it can really, extensively, and persistently represent and realize the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of the people and the fundamental interests of all ethnic groups and all walks of life throughout the country, and effectively avoid the drawbacks of the old-style political party system of representing a small number of people and a small number of interest groups. The new is new in that it closely unites all political parties and personages without party affiliation and strives for a common goal, effectively avoiding the drawbacks of one party's lack of supervision, multiple parties taking turns to sit in power, and vicious competition. The new is new in that it concentrates all kinds of opinions and suggestions through institutionalized, procedural, and standardized arrangements, and promotes scientific and democratic decision-making, thus effectively avoiding the drawbacks of the old-style political party system that is confined to party interests, class interests, and regional and group interests, resulting in social division.

This new type of political party system not only conforms to the reality of contemporary China, but also conforms to the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation, which has always advocated that the world is for the common good, inclusive, and seeking common ground while reserving differences, and is a major contribution to human political civilization.

The system of multi-party cooperation and political consultation under the leadership of the Communist Party of China emphasizes the leadership of the Communist Party of China and the promotion of socialist democracy.

In the new era, the stage for multi-party cooperation and political consultation is extremely broad, and it is necessary to make good use of the democratic form and institutional channel of political party consultation, promote the extensive, multi-layered, and institutionalized development of consultative democracy, form a complete system and procedure, and participate in practice, so as to ensure that the people have the right to extensive, sustained, and in-depth participation in daily political life.

The system of regional ethnic autonomy is a basic political system in China, and an important content and institutional guarantee for the correct path of resolving ethnic issues with Chinese characteristics.

The adoption of the method of regional ethnic autonomy not only ensures the unity and unity of the country, but also realizes that all ethnic groups are masters of their own affairs.

Practice has proved that the system of regional ethnic autonomy conforms to China's national conditions and has played an important role in safeguarding national unity and territorial integrity, strengthening ethnic equality and unity, promoting the development of ethnic areas, and enhancing the cohesion of the Chinese nation.

To uphold and improve the system of regional ethnic autonomy, it is necessary to persistently combine reunification with autonomy and with ethnic and regional factors, properly implement the provisions of the Constitution and the Law on Regional National Autonomy, and help ethnic autonomous areas develop their economies and improve their people's livelihood, so that the theoretical roots of the system of regional ethnic autonomy will be more deeply rooted and the practical foundation will be more and more firmly established.

The system of grassroots mass autonomy is a basic political system in our country and is the foundation and important component of the construction of socialist democratic politics.

To improve the system of grassroots democracy and develop grassroots democracy, it is necessary to give full play to the party's role as the core of leadership in controlling the overall situation and coordinating all parties, and make the party's leadership run through the entire process and all aspects of the construction of the grassroots mass autonomy mechanism, so as to ensure that the construction of grassroots democracy always advances along the path of socialist political development with Chinese characteristics.

It is necessary to unblock democratic channels, improve mechanisms for elections, deliberations, openness, work reports, and accountability at the grassroots level, promote the masses to self-manage, self-serve, self-educate, and self-supervise in accordance with the law in urban and rural community governance, grassroots public affairs, and public welfare undertakings, and earnestly prevent the phenomenon of the people having formal rights but in fact not having them.

Socialist democracy with Chinese characteristics is a new thing that needs to be constantly improved and developed. Institutional self-confidence is not to be stagnant and complacent, but to unify firm institutional self-confidence with continuous reform and innovation, and on the basis of adhering to the fundamental political system and basic political system, we should continuously promote the improvement and development of the institutional system, earnestly strengthen the institutional guarantee that the people are the masters of the country, and ensure that the people enjoy more extensive, fuller, and more real democratic rights.
