| The great achievements of New China are referred to overseas as “the China miracle”. However, many people outside China do not understand the secret to “the China miracle”. In fact, the key to the China miracle is in the country’s political system. China’s economic and social development cannot be separated from its political development, and the success of China’s reform and opening up policy has written a new chapter in the democratic modernization of a large developing country. The reform and opening policy has first of all given the Chinese people more economic and social freedoms and led to the realization of more independence in their economic and social rights. More democracy in the political arena has led to more economic and social freedoms and this has brought about fundamental changes in the relationship between politics and economics in China since the institution of the reform and opening policy. The development of democratic politics in China must help promote China’s modernization, continuously satisfy the need for reform created by economic and social development and conform to the continual increase in the demand and desire of the people to participate in political affairs and have their rights and interests guaranteed. This is the basic lessons and the consensus formed in China during more than 30 years of carrying out reform and opening up and developing democratic politics. This consensus may also be called “China’s lesson from developing democratic politics” or “a socialist road of political development with Chinese characteristics.” |
