Current affairs perspective
Eastern and Westernly conduct a reflection and debate on the political system of China and the West (especially China and the United States), which responded to the epidemic. Kissinger specially wrote that the crown disease will always change the world order.
The epidemic has seriously impacted globalization.In the future, after the virus, a human enemy that maintains common fear, is controlled, individuals restore it from the part of human beings to a molecule of society, lost, angry, and inexplicable will be released.Times, the huge gap between expectations and reality means that it will be an extremely dangerous period, just like the danger of Tocowl warning in the early days of the reform.This unprecedented public health crisis is rapidly evolving into an economic disaster. It is likely to be transformed into society and even political disasters. People must prepare early.
The disadvantages of poor information transmission under China's centralized system, and the advantages of concentrated power to do major events are already old -fashioned, and it is also very obvious in this anti -epidemic; but the defeat in the United States is surprising.Just as the centralized system will miss important information, in the western -style democratic society, valuable information still has to fight for the attention of the masters, and whether the success can be successful depends on the right to speak, the competition of other information, and the main administration of the main government.The prejudice and political considerations such as prejudice and political considerations do not need to conceal them. It is easy to flood in information such as impeachment, campaign, and taunting China.
Failure began to promote scholars to seriously reflect on their own political system, rather than floating on the surface.Professor Stephen M. Walt, a professor at Harvard University of Kennedy Government College, issued a statement to announce the death of the United States.People, urging Americans to reflect on whether to take a whole year to elect whether a person who has a term of four years is really meaningful, and believes that the fundamental change of politics may be the front line I can see now.
Regardless of the East and the West, politics is based on supporting supporters, and the trust between officials and the people and the trust between the people should be the main task of politicians.In China, trust is mainly obtained by improving the living standards of the people and completing a major political commitment; in the United States, trust is obtained through votes of most people through campaign procedures and promised (relative).
At present, China and the United States are facing a crisis of trust: under the impact of the unconventional epidemic, the local governance of Wuhan and Hubei disappoints the Chinese people. The miscarriage of the measures over and over again has triggered a large number of public public opinion incidents, which greatly reduces the people to the local area.The degree of trust in governance; this has won extensive praise with the central government's resolute and rapid response and quickly, forming a sharp contrast.The United States is a political atmosphere that is gradually differentiated and distrustful, and the political activities of frequent attacks such as impeachment and campaign have made the epidemic at the beginning of this epidemic.The strategy of decision makers is misjudgment, and the American people are likely to pay the most heavier life price since World War II.
How to rebuild trust in this era of civilians who are competing for the right to speak?The answer is more direct democracy.People should jump out of the previous political thinking framework, boldly use the referendum to reform the political system in China and the United States, so that each ticket will come in handy and rebuild trust in a more direct democratic way.As the representative of the public selection theory, Anthony Downs said, each election is a judgment of the political performance of the ruling party. Focusing on this, you can maximize the effectiveness of the national voting.
In terms of local governance in China, the assessment method of the government officials should be changed, so that all the local citizens in the local area should vote for the administrative gains and losses of the government officials of the year after each financial year.Political indicators, comprehensive bonuses awards, and promotion and relegation to encourage the main officials to be more responsible.
This system can be called a referendum assessment system. I have introduced it in Lianhe Zaobao a few months ago in Lianhe Zaobao. I won't go into details here.It is worth mentioning that at the Second Session of the 13th National People's Congress on March 5, 2019, Li Keqiang proposed the establishment of a government service bad evaluation system in the government work report. The new system can be regarded as its upgraded version.
The US election group system is not applied to the re -election election. It should be adopted to adopt a referendum to decide whether to re -election. After all, those who are more qualified to be qualified should be qualified.For example, after Trump received the national referendum after the first end of the end, the support rate was more than half of the support. This can be used at the time standard to use direct democracy to balance the winner at the last election.In this way, Trump will try to make up for domestic political differences and unite the people instead of only concern to the basic disk, and even consolidate his basic disk by tearing public opinion.If the assessment is not approved, it is not re -elected, and a two -party competitive election will be fair.
Whether it is domestic politics or international politics, trust is precious and scarce resources.Trust is mutual. In the ideology of liberalism, trust can expand the authorization of leaders, reduce interference, and enable them to cope with major issues; in the ideological form of collectivism, trust can expand the people to the peopleThe authorization, stimulate vitality, make the entire society more tolerant and creative.
And the whole people are more frequent and substantially involved in the performance evaluation of leaders, improve the sense of participation of the people, allow each voting to play a role, encourage politicians to increase the absolute support rate, and the real trust will be established. Democracy will be established.It is beneficial.
This seems to be a metaphorical metaphor. Only when people are isolated and distrust each other can they protect themselves from virus infringement. This is the secondary disaster of the virus to human society. Only when people start learning to trust each other can they really defeat the virus.Find the way out of the crisis.
