摘要
原本作为接待来信来访之秘书功能的信访,经过30余年、尤其是近十年来的发展,已成为国家政治生活中具有举足轻重影响力的"信访政治",信访的机构、人员、职能和角色地位发生了根本性变化,获得了地方性立法的保障。然而,访民和一般民众的权利、尤其是其权利的法治保障,却并未获得相应的提升。这种背反情况的出现,正是威权体制的产物,也暗合于中国传统体制之精神。文章认为,信访政治严重悖于现代国家建设的民主、法治与科学精神。信访体制的改革,应当回到其宏观体制之根,推动宏观体制本身的民主化、法治化和科学化改革;应当厘清宏观体制和结构中的信访权力角色与功能定位。
Over the course of over 30 years, especially the last decade, xinfang ( public complaint via letters and visits), which was once the practice of the secretariat receiving letters and visits from the public, has e- volved into the politics of xinfang, which plays a very important role in the political life of our country. The or- ganization, personnel, function and role of xinfang has changed fundamentally, and even acquired the safeguard of local legislation. By contrast, the legal protection of the rights of complainants and ordinary citizens has not been improved commensurably. This paradox originates from the authoritarian nature of the regime, and it also coincides with the spirit of the traditional system in China. The politics of xinfang seriously violates the spirit of democracy, rule of law and science in modern state building. Therefore, to reform the system of xinfang, we should return to the roots of its macro - system; promote the reform of the macro - system itself with an orienta- tion toward democracy, rule of law and science; and clarify the role and functional position of xinfang in the macro - system and structure.
