On how to build a harmonious relationship between the party and the masses.

"Harmonious relationship between the Party and the masses" has rich scientific connotation, and the relationship between the ruling party and the people is the core of social and political relations. Building a harmonious relationship between the party and the masses is not only crucial to building a harmonious socialist society, but also a summary and promotion of the experience in building the relationship between the party and the masses under the ruling conditions since the reform and opening up. First, building a harmonious relationship between the party and the masses is the deepening of the understanding of the relationship between the party and the masses and the development of the party's mass line. Building a harmonious relationship between the party and the masses reflects the new requirements of the relationship between the party and the masses in the new historical period and the characteristics of the relationship between the party and the masses at the present stage. "Harmony" means that the relationship between the party and the masses is in a good state of harmony and coordination. Its basic meanings are as follows: First, representing the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people, maintaining the advanced nature of the party is the most important political basis for achieving harmony between the party and the masses; Second, harmony means seeking consistency in differences; Thirdly, harmony means acknowledging contradictions and actively solving them; Fourth, harmony requires the establishment of a benign interactive relationship between the party and the masses. The benign interaction between the party and the masses is based on the unity of the leading role of the party and the decisive role of the masses in creating history, and on the unity of the party's adherence to the vanguard theory and the theory that the people are masters of their own affairs. On the one hand, people trust and support the party's leadership because of historical experience and practical experience, and regard the party as a loyal representative of their own interests and a reliable force to safeguard their own interests; On the other hand, the ruling party and its members consciously position themselves as tools for the people to accomplish specific historical tasks, and always regard the fundamental interests of the broad masses of the people as the starting point and destination of their actions. Therefore, the Party leads the masses, educates them, learns from them and accepts their supervision. Whether it is the party's leadership and education to the masses, or the masses' supervision, opinions and suggestions to the party, it is not one-way, and it will get a positive response from the other side. The result of benign interaction is that the party and the masses advance together, comprehensively promote social and economic development and democratization of the country's political life, which not only enables the masses to continuously gain political, economic and cultural benefits, but also consolidates the party's ruling foundation. This is an ideal state and the best state of harmony between the party and the masses. Secondly, Harmonious Party-masses Relationship reveals a new working idea: the focus of the construction of Party-masses relationship should shift from the party's style construction to the mechanism construction, and establish and improve the new mechanism of the party's mass work. In the past, the construction of party-mass relations emphasized the construction of work style, and it will continue to do so in the future. However, due to the change of the situation, it is not enough to solve the relationship between the party and the masses only from the perspective of work style. We should focus on dealing with the issue of interest relations, shift the focus of the construction of the relationship between the party and the masses to the mechanism, innovate the new mechanism of mass work, and make the new mechanism a carrier of harmonious relationship between the party and the masses. Mechanism is not the patchwork and superposition of systems. Compared with the system, the mechanism emphasizes the systematicness and operability of the system. It can be said that the mechanism is based on the system and the system, with clear working objectives, implementation methods and safeguard measures. It is a complex and arduous task to establish and perfect the new mechanism of the Party's mass work, including the improvement of methods, the change of ideas, the innovation and systematization of systems. We should focus on the following tasks: 1, establish and improve the evaluation mechanism of the harmony between the party and the masses. Whether the relationship between the party and the masses is harmonious or not can not be judged by the subjective views of party organizations and the personal feelings of leading cadres, nor can it be generalized. It should be based on facts and consider data. We can establish an index evaluation system for the harmonious relationship between the party and the masses in a certain period and region, including Gini coefficient, the number of letters and visits, the incidence of mass incidents, the investigation of hot issues of public concern, the proportion of people applying to join the party in a region, the people's trust in leading cadres, and the self-funded subscription of party newspapers and periodicals. The integration of these indicators can provide statistical basis for the party and government organs to understand the relationship between the party and the masses, and can also play a role in prompting and even warning. 2. Establish and improve the evaluation mechanism of cadres' political achievements by the masses, and take people's livelihood issues as the evaluation content. At present, the phenomenon of "cadres make achievements, the masses pay, cadres are promoted because of their achievements, and their achievements become national debts" is mainly caused by improper evaluation methods and unscientific evaluation contents, except for some people's distorted views on achievements. What needs to be clear is that the leader of the cadre performance evaluation is the party organization, and the main body of the evaluation is the people. There is a simple reason. The party works for the people, and the achievements of cadres are the achievements of serving the people. Therefore, what is the performance of cadres, the masses have the most say. Through scientific procedures, let the masses evaluate the political achievements of cadres during their term of office, and combine organizational inspection and special audit to correct the tendency of a few cadres to be official-oriented, GDP-oriented and individual-oriented, so that cadres can be responsible to their superiors and subordinates and really do practical things for the masses. 3. Establish and improve the power granting mechanism, and clarify the relationship between the power giver and the power exerciser from the system, so as to ensure that "power is used by the people" by "power is granted by the people". Judging from the attributes and sources of public power, the power in the hands of cadres comes from the people and can only be used to serve the people. However, due to the defects of specific institutional arrangements, some cadres lack a correct understanding of the fundamental issue of the attribute and source of power. They think that power is "planned" by themselves and "rewarded" by superiors. Naturally, they are not responsible for the real owner of power-the people, or they do what they are told, ignore the opinions of the masses, or solve problems from the source, so we must earnestly expand democracy in cadre work. Both appointment and election should embody the mass line in essence rather than in form, so that cadres can truly feel that the power in their hands comes from the people and can only be used to serve the people, so that those who exercise power are truly responsible to the owners of power. Among the above-mentioned mass work mechanisms, the power granting mechanism is the most fundamental mechanism. Only such a mechanism can ensure the restriction and supervision of power operation, effectively prevent corruption and create a harmonious relationship between the party and the masses.
