The Analyses On The Contradictions Between Masses And Cadres In Rural China During The Social Transformation

Under the direction of the dialectical and historical materialism of Marxism, this dissertation is based on the substantive field inquisition. The contradictions between masses and cadres have been analyzed in view of political sciences since the reform and opening up in rural China during the social transformation.During the social transformation, the relationship between masses and cadres is getting more and more tense up on account of economic and social transformation. It lies as following: masses and cadres can't identify with each other, the conflicts between them increase more, the peasants appeal to the higher authorities for help by letters or mass group increasingly and so on. The characteristics of the contradictions present themselves as the complication, diversification, increasing tensity, unexpected outburst and controllablity. Although its opposability is getting intensified, it is a part of the category of the internal conflicts among people.The contradictions between masses and cadres are influenced by some problems and defects existed in the national macro-systems during the social transformation and the micro changes of subjects, objects, coordinated mechanism resulted from the social transformation. From the two paths, the dissertation analyses the causes of the contradictions. The junction of two paths is interest, the contradictions between masses and cadres presents the ones of interests in essence.In the macroscopical view, the causes of the contradictions lies in that: under the direction of the overtaking development strategy, the rural development is badly hindered and fettered by the dual structure of the urban and rural societies and the policy of the industry and cities aided financially by peasants that has been implemented in China all along. Furthermore, it's restricted by the real situation of China that there is more and more population but less and less land. The political system reform has still been lagged behind the economic system reform, the democracy in rural grass roots develops distemperedly, the organizations building of the Party at the primary levels still exists some issues. The control on the ideology by state is weaker and weaker, the spiritual civilization construction is paid no or less attention. The gap between the rich and the poor is getting increasing, social differentiation becomes acute, different groups and stratifications are taking shape, their appeal for interests is stronger, social conformity is more difficult.In the microcosmic view, the changes of the subjects, objects and coordinated mechanism are the three main factors that affect the contradictions between masses and cadres. It proceeds with between whom the contradictions occur? What the contradictions aim at is probed deep into, on this basis, it's probed into why the coordinated mechanism fails to function. During the social transformation, relationship between masses and cadres evolves from the past pyramid –style of the nation-primary-level organizations-peasants to the triangle-style of state, primary- level organizations and peasants in rural China. The masses and cadres as subjects becomes differentiation, the peasants evolve to ten different stratifications and groups. The model of appointment and removal, ingredients, correlation of the cadres all changes greatly in village and township levels. The objects play a decisive role in the occurrences of the contradictions between masses and cadres. During the social transformation objects gradually increase and become increasing concretion and complication, subjects pursue objects definitely, at the same time the coordinated mechanism fails to function, all these induces and increases the contradictions between masses and cadres.The economic development doesn't resolve the contradictions between masses and cadres automatically. So the national system building must be carried out as the ultimate path to settle them. Its path dependence must be followed from the Party building to inner-Party democracy, to government refor...
