本文重点是对2016年浙江省杭州市西湖区第十五届区人大代表的四个投票站的投票做了具体与详细的观察,但是旨在通过观察并在此基础上讨论两个极具有理论意涵又有现实性的问题。第一,中国地方人大代表选举不是关于候选人间的竞争,不是择优,而是通过选举反映民意,汇集民意,甚至通过选举的机制找出地方可能存在着的问题或弱点甚至找些碴;第二,地方、基层人大代表选举其程序民主优先于实质民主,其核心在于通过程序选出人大代表,让代表在人大制度内如何有效地履职。基于这样的认识,本文认为,这是中国治理模式的最大特点,是中国式治理的一个精髓,但是,这点在以往并没有得到足够的认识。
<<This article focuses on the specific and detailed observation of the four polling stations’ elections of the deputies to the 15th District people’s Congress of Xihu District,Hangzhou City,Zhejiang Province in 2016,but the purpose is to discuss two very theoretical and realistic issues through and basing on the observation. The basic idea of the article is to demonstrate that The election of deputies to the local people’s Congress in China is not about the competition between candidates,not about selecting the best candidates,but rather about reflecting public opinion,gathering public opinion,and even identifying potential weak points and problems at the local level. And local people’s congresses have priority in procedural democracy over substantive democracy in the election of deputies to the people’s congresses,the core of which is how to elect deputies to the people’s congresses through procedures and how to enable them to carry out their duties effectively in the NPC system. In authors’ mind,this is a part of the “China Model” of governance,which has not yet been identified or discussed by anyone.
