政治改革政策的目标设定和策略选择

人们对政治改革目标选择和政策方案的设计出于不同的目的和考虑。政策选择过程充斥着各方的政治互动和博弈。然而,互动和博弈的各方所拥有的正当性、影响力和权威性不可能是均等的。占主导的一方往往可以运用优势的政治资源来领导政治改革的方向和决定改革政策的选择,并将其政策偏好和现实的政治需要转换为实质性的政策和行动。在中国现行的政治体制中,中国共产党和党的中央领导层实际上是政治改革过程中始终如一的主导者。为了维护政治改革的主导权和改革政策的稳定实施,中央领导层在面对诸多不确定性的情况下,选择了一条渐进式政治改革的道路。

The dominant party can certainly lead the reform and translate its preferences into substantive policy by using its superior political sources. In Chinese political system, the Communist Party and the party leadership have effectively dominated the process of political reform. For safeguarding the leadership in political reform and maintaining a smooth policy implementation, the Party leaders choose incremental political reform to handle uncertainties in uncertain situations.
