A Study On The Governance Of “Micro-corruption” In China In The New Era

“Micro-corruption” occurs in the urban and rural grass-roots level,which is not only an abominable corruption problem by the masses but also a realistic challenge and severe test under the long-term taking power of the Communist Party of China.The governance of“Micro-corruption” is the key link to improve the political ecology at the grass-roots level,the realistic need to consolidate the foundation of the Party in power,the inevitable requirement for improving the construction quality of the Party in the grass-roots,the important way to propel the modernization of the grass-roots governance,and the important means to promote the self-revolution of the Party.At the Sixth Plenary Session of the 18 th CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection,General Secretary Xi Jinping made an important deployment on “promoting the extension of overall strict governance of the Party to the grass-roots level” and proposed to severely punish “Micro-corruption” among the masses.The report of the 19 th CPC National Congress also made a comprehensive plan for this,and since then,it has become one of the key tasks that the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection focuses on.At the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19 th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China,it was proposed that since the 18 th CPC National Congress,comprehensive and strict governance of the Party have achieved remarkable results in “solving prominent problems that are strongly reflected by the masses and harm their interests”,and,“upholding the supremacy of the people” as the valuable historical experience of the Party’s century struggle.In 2022,“Strengthening the supervision at the grass-roots level” was put forward at the Central File One.In the context of continuously deepening the reform of the state supervision system,it is urgent to carry on the system refinement and the research discussion theoretically.“Micro-corruption” is the important manifestation of corruption in China’s grass-roots political practice,which holds the typical characteristics of “low”,“small”,“near”,“many”and “confused”.Based on the standard of resources and order,divided from the three dimensions: undertaking national resources,managing collective “three-capital”,managing rural public affairs,“Micro-corruption” is generally classified into ten categories,namely,false claim,bait and switch,detainment,embezzlement and private division,benefit friends and relatives,ask for benefits from the masses by taking advantage of one’s position,vote rigging,the village bully,criminal and gang-related,dereliction of duty,etc.The governance of “Micro-corruption” has a profound theoretical origin.In the new era,on the basis of absorbing and learning from the thoughts and theories on corruption governance in ancient China and Western political civilization,and inheriting and developing the ideas and theories of classical Marxist writers and leaders of the CPC on corruption governance,the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core,based on the political practice at the grass-roots level in China,has put forward a series of important discussions on the governance of “Micro-corruption”,which constitutes the theoretical origin of the governance of “Micro-corruption”.Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC,all parts of the country have been fighting against “Micro-corruption”,which has not only effectively curbed the growth and spread of “Micro-corruption”,safeguarded the vital interests of the people at the grass-roots level,but also refined the work style of cadres at the grass-roots level,strengthened and improved the leadership of the Party,and raised the modernization level of grass-roots governance.However,the governance of “Micro-corruption” still faces some practical problems such as insufficient constraints of the existing system,the lack of supervision at the grass-roots level,the involvement of some grass-roots cadres in crime and evil,and the unsatisfactory effect of integrity education.The reasons include: first,some cadres at the grass-roots level have inadequate conceptual understanding about establishing people-centered idea,implementing “Two responsibilities”,carrying forward integrated supervision and applying information technology.Second,the governance mechanism are insufficient,which include prevention mechanism,supervision mechanism,disciplinary mechanism,clean education mechanism and so on.The methods of governance are insufficient innovation,which include normalization of the selection and appointment of cadres at the grass-roots level,the use of dialectical thinking,the flesh out “Second half of the Article” of investigation,the use of information technology.The governance of “Micro-corruption” in the new era should not only strengthen the concept of governance,but also realize the innovation of governance mechanism and methods.It is necessary to firmly establish the people-centered concept of safeguarding the interests of the masses,relying on the orderly participation of the masses,judgement by the people.We must carry out the “Two Responsibilities” concept that the county and township Party committee perform the main responsibility and the county and township discipline inspection,and supervision organs perform the responsibility of supervision.We should strengthen the integrated supervision idea with the contents of promoting the full-coverage of inspection and supervision,realizing the full-coverage of inspection and supervision,and promoting the integration of all kinds of supervision.It is necessary to use the concept of the information supervision to deepen Internet thinking and strengthen the concept of big data,and provide ideological guidance for the in-depth promotion of “Micro-corruption”governance.We should establish a scientific prevention mechanism by improving the supporting mechanisms of laws and systems,fine-tuning the Party’s rules and regulations.We should improve the accurate supervision mechanism by optimizing the mechanism for the allocation of supervisory personnel,improving the mechanism for the integration of supervisory forces,and improving the coordination mechanism for the forms of supervision.We should improve the powerful disciplinary mechanism by improving the severity and inevitability of punishment,combining anti-crime with fighting corruption at the grass-roots level,and improving the error-tolerance and error-correction mechanism of cadres at the grass-roots level.We should perfect the fine clean education mechanism by integrating diversified subjects of clean education,deepening clean education at the grass-roots level by level and classification and innovating the forms of clean education at the grass-roots level.Eventually,we will realize the important goals of “do not dare to corrupt”,“cannot be corrupt” and “don’t want to be corrupt” for grass-roots cadres.We must innovate and employ the method of the link control of strict “Entrance”,standard “Duty”,smooth “Exit”.It is necessary to innovate and apply the method of precision tactics of focusing on livelihood projects,funds for the benefit of the people,letters and visits,enforcement responsibility.It is necessary to innovate and apply the method of the case education of case exposure,case analysis,case warning,system-building.It is also necessary to innovate and apply the method of the intelligent supervision with the “Internet+” Network Platform,the building of big data monitoring platform,to deepen the governance of “Micro-corruption” to provide more effective methods for reference.
