The Chinese Communist Party Represents The Interests Of The Mechanism

Interest representation is one of the basic functions of a party. Its realization must rely on a certain mechanism. The CPC represents the essential interest of the Chinese people with its scientific interest representation mechanisms as its solid foundation. Due to the significance of this topic, this article is written under the guidance of the Marxist theory, especially the fundamental principles of the Marxist political science and the Party Building theory of the CPC and focuses on the process of interest realization. The contents are arranged logically in the order of theory analysis, historical survey, Chinese-Western comparison and contrast, actual challenges and perfection approaches, to survey, analyze and evaluate the operation of the CPC's interest representation mechanisms during different periods and the actual challenges they faced in a systematic way, in an attempt to explore new insights and approaches to form a scientific interest representation mechanism in accordance with the new circumstances in China.The whole article consists of an introduction and a five-chapter body. The introduction mainly attempts to justify the base and significance of the chosen topic, provide an overview of the current study in the field, and explain the focus and outline of the research as well as the author's innovations in regard to research methods and content.Chapter one is the Theoretical Analysis of the Interest Representation Mechanism. The author traces back the origins of the representative system and uses parties and the representative function of parties as a starting point to illustrate the basic conditions for the establishment of a interest representation mechanism; next the author defines and explains some key concepts in the book, i.e.,"interest representation","mechanism", and"interest representation mechanism". Lastly, the author analyzes the elements of a mechanism and the process of its operation in terms of a political process, and points out the inter-relationship of all the elements within a mechanism. Since political process consists of a series of political events which are motivated by different interests. Seen from the angle of politics, the political process of a ruling party is the process of realizing its representative interest.Chapter two is The Shaping of the CPC Interest Representation Mechanisms and Their characteristics. This chapter centers on the necessity and inevitability of the CPC's interest representation, and deals with the ways and features of the CPC's realization of its interest representation during the period of revolution. The mechanism of that time proved to be quite effective. It won the support of the people and ultimately led to the CPC's rise to the position of party in power from a minor revolutionary party. The author then discusses the political process, i.e., the whole process from interest expression, to interest integration, and to interest realization( including policy making, implement and feedback), to analyze the structure of the CPC's interest representation mechanism at the time when CPC became the ruling party and the main functions of its various elements in the process of its operation. Lastly, the author evaluates the mechanism of this period, and points out its appropriateness under the circumstances of its time as well as its potential defects.Chapter three is Features of the Western Party Interest representation Mechanisms and Their lessons. This chapter is a critical summary of the major practices and features of interest representation mechanisms of different political systems. Taking western parties as examples, British and American parties in particular, the author attacks the limitations of their mechanisms and sums up the lessons which our party can learn to perfect our own mechanism. Chapter four is Social Transformation and the New Challenges to CPC's Interest Representation Mechanism". This part discusses the emerging trend of pluralistic interest as a result of China's opening up and its economical reform which disintegrated the original homogeneity. The author analyses the new challenges to CPC's interest representation mechanism caused by social transformation, in an attempt to explore and summarize the project of the age, i.e., to improve the CPC's interest representation mechanism in accordance with the new historical conditions in China.Chapter five is Some Reflections on Constructing a Scientific Interest Representation Mechanism. This chapter is the starting point as well as lodging point of this article. Through studying of the process of interest representation, contrasting the history and the reality and comparing our party with other parties in power, the author proposes some key issues which must be resolved so as to construct a scientific interest representation mechanism: first, to form a reasonable interest expression mechanism; second, to perfect the decision-making mechanism for the integration of a democratic decision-making and a scientific one; thirdly, to form an insurance mechanism for the implementation of policies; fourthly, to form a policy correction and compensation mechanism so as to avoid long-term dislocation in interest representation; last but not least, to draw citizens'participation in the process of interest representation so as to solve the representative crisis; lastly, to improve authorization mechanism, establish an effective power operation mechanism, improve supervision control mechanism so as to ensure the positive operation of the interest representation mechanism.
