A Study On Reign Security Of The Communist Party Of China

Reign Security refers to that the ruling party can hold power without danger or it can maintain its ruling position by defeating and overcoming the risks from at home and abroad. Reign Security Status of the ruling party is the fundamental problem concerning the governance status of the society, the safety and danger of the state and the rise and fall of the ruling party. Under the typical framework of party-state-society, a powerful and efficient political power center is indispensable to running a political system effectively. Undoubtedly, a party or parties play a genuine role of the above-mentioned center, which is the internal logic and inevitable outcome of the contemporary party politics. However, as a modern democratic political tool, no party-system model is omnipotent. As a matter of fact, party crisis almost exist throughout the whole evolution of party politics. Once a party come into power and hold public power persistently, they (the ruling party) might go against their original intentions by abusing and even usurping power, which logically break the power assignment between the party and the society, in which the party grow and thrive. With the ruling party itself weakening and even decaying the function of"integration tool", its nature might alienate from"conflict forces"to"objects of conflict"between the state and the society, which eventually deduced the numerous sadness of the worldwide party-crisis. Will the Communist Party lose regime after they come into power? Though it is an unwelcome sensitive topic, it is an unexpected, spontaneous and inevasible problem. The ruling position of the CPC is not innate or once for all. From the very beginning of the new century, the CPC is mindful of the potential danger and stay prepared against adversities in times of peace, and has been consciously aware of the problems concerning her reign security. To warn the authorities at the risk in peaceful and prosperous times, this dissertation is devoted to coordinating relevant elements concerning the reign of CPC historically and logically.Research on the reign security of ruling party is the concern of sociology, history and politics. This dissertation aims at systematically investigating the formation and evolution of the reign security of CPC, striving to probe into the regularity of reign security under the guidance of the Marxism Materialist Dialectics and Historical Dialectics. In the study, it is carried out by integrating the methods of systematic and inquiry, analysis and synthesis, comparative and historical analysis and the innovation of systematically researching is made. Therefore the emphasis is on the multiple combinations between analysis and synthesis, qualitative and quantitative, part and whole, certainty and uncertainty, theory and case, accuracy and similarity, scientific reason and artistic intuition. The entire layout follows an individual-general-individual sequence, and the"four-in-one"analytical tool is the mainline throughout the study, which is made up of the progressiveness of the ruling party, the masses'acceptance to the party in power, the condition of the public power and performance against external intervention. However, the study adheres to"open issues and issues open"in order to avoid"principle to facts"that is off the track.The dissertation consists of introduction, main body and ending. There are six chapters in the main body.
