Abstract
Governing ethics act as the moral basis for the political authority of the governing Party and the value guidance of the behaviors of the governing Party and its members. Community-level Party organizations, playing a key role in the work of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in rural areas, are the basic platforms for rural Party members to be acknowledged and respected. The building of them has always been highly emphasized by the Party. However, the key role of community-level Party organizations in rural areas has been weakened to some extent by the increasing amount of rural Party members joining the floating population, the negative effect of pan-market phenomenon in the whole society, and the hollowing condition caused by the floating away of population in the under-developed rural areas, which all have added up a critical problem hindering the building of governing ethics of the Party in the rural areas. Thus, this paper proposes a comprehensive protection mechanism which is constituted by five steps as the standard for the building of community-level Party organizations in rural areas, a stimulus for the effective restoration of the role of community-level Party organizations in rural areas in enhancing the development of rural economy, serving people, rallying public support and promoting harmony, and a choice for community-level Party organizations in rural areas to regain their function and subjective position in the vision of governing ethics.
Highlights
The building of community-level Party organizations is a permanent strategy, which needs continuous practice, perfection, and improvement
The building of community-level Party organizations in rural areas and the subjective position of rural Party members have always been a great concern of the Chinese communists since the founding of PRC had benefited too much from the path of encircling the cities from rural areas
The solving of the problems has to rely on the motivation of farmers’ enthusiasm, initiative and creativity, the full play of rural Party members’ subjective position and function, and the re-recognition of the significance of governing ethics over the building of community-level Party organizations by the community-level Party organizations themselves, because governing ethics are the moral basis for governing authority of the governing Party
Summary
The building of community-level Party organizations is a permanent strategy, which needs continuous practice, perfection, and improvement. The mismatching between the original governing model of community-level Party organizations in rural areas and the new economic and social condition in rural areas, between the leading method of Party organizations and the framework of farmers’ self-administration, and between the Party community-level democracy and the subjective position of farmers, which all embody the deep changes in the social structure and pattern of interests and benefits in rural areas with the accelerating of the process in the building of political democracy and the economic and social development in rural areas, have brought a great change in people’s views and values, their life styles, and the general atmosphere in society, and some challenges for the building of community-level Party organizations in rural areas Confronted with this challenge, an seemingly omnipotent theory——“Two Back-feedings” or “Two Supports” though put forward to deal with the issues relating to agriculture, rural areas and farmers in the Chinese academic circles, has been proved to be less effective, no matter it is about the support of industry to agriculture or the support of cities to rural areas. The community-level Party organizations should respond to the Party’s call of “making the community-level Party jpl.ccsenet.org
