制度優(yōu)勢

人民當家作主是社會主義民主政治的本質(zhì)特征。中國是工人階級領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的、以工農(nóng)聯(lián)盟為基礎(chǔ)的人民民主專政的社會主義國家，國家一切權(quán)力屬于人民。習近平指出，中國社會主義民主是維護人民根本利益的最廣泛、最真實、最管用的民主。發(fā)展社會主義民主政治就是要體現(xiàn)人民意志、保障人民權(quán)益、激發(fā)人民創(chuàng)造活力，用制度體系保證人民當家作主。

中國共產(chǎn)黨從成立之日起就以實現(xiàn)人民當家作主為己任，團結(jié)帶領(lǐng)中國人民進行新民主主義革命，為爭取民族獨立、人民解放，實現(xiàn)人民當家作主不懈奮斗。新中國成立后，中國共產(chǎn)黨領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人民建立了人民當家作主的國家政權(quán)，進行了廣泛的民主實踐，實現(xiàn)了中國從幾千年封建專制政治向人民民主的偉大飛躍，開辟了人民當家作主的歷史新紀元。改革開放40多年來特別是中共十八大以來，中國特色社會主義政治發(fā)展道路越走越寬廣，人民當家作主的制度保障越來越健全，社會主義民主的優(yōu)越性更加充分地展示出來。

黨政軍機關(guān)、企事業(yè)單位開展定點扶貧，是中國特色扶貧開發(fā)事業(yè)的重要組成部分，也是中國政治優(yōu)勢和制度優(yōu)勢的重要體現(xiàn)。

Institutional Strengths

That the people are masters of the country is an essential feature of socialist democracy. China is a socialist country of people's democratic dictatorship under the leadership of the working class and based on an alliance of workers and farmers, and it is a country where all power of the state belongs to the people. As Xi Jinping says, China's socialist democracy is the broadest, most genuine, and most effective democracy to safeguard the fundamental interests of the people. The very purpose of developing socialist democracy is to give full expression to the will of the people, protect their rights and interests, spark their creativity, and provide systemic and institutional guarantees to ensure that the people run the country.

From the very beginning, the CPC has striven to ensure the position of the people as masters of the country. It united and led the Chinese people in the New Democratic Revolution in pursuit of national independence and liberation and making the people masters of the country.

After the People's Republic was founded in 1949, the CPC led the people in establishing a state power with the people as masters of the country and building extensive democracy, thus realizing China's great transition from a millennia-old feudal autocracy to a people's democracy.

Since the late 1970s when China began reform and opening up, and especially since 2012, socialist democracy with Chinese features has advanced on a broad front. Institutions to ensure the people's position as masters of the country have been improved, and socialist democracy is demonstrating its great strengths.

The practice of having CPC and government departments, the military, enterprises and public institutions paired up with poor counties to provide assistance to the latter is an important part of China's poverty elimination campaign. It demonstrates the political and institutional strengths of China.
