Policy implementation is the central segment of public administration activity of the government for achieving the policy purpose. And it is of the most direct, important and frequent political affairs and of the determine factor of solving basically the policy problems and putting into policy scheme. As following the continuously accumulation of practice experiences of human social policy and the gradually maturity of policy science research, and taking America as the represent of policy scholars of western countries, they take more and more concerns on probing into the policy implementation from the 1960s and 1970s of 20 century, especially the failure of the reform policy projects of "the great society"by Johnson Government of America, make people pay highly concerns on the research of policy implementation. In China, Scholars positively drew lessons from and absorbed the theory achievements about the policy science research of western Countries, and, carried on effectively probing into the problems which is taking place in the process of the important policy working-out and policy implementation by the party and the state like as "Chinese reforming-and-opening"policy. But people usually analyze from the point views of policy implementation resource, environment, means, power, obstruction and implementation deviation, but didn't pay enough attentions on analyzing profoundly the possible contradiction and conflict problems in the process of policy implementation from these aspects such as interest, institution and culture. This paper tries to using the related theories of social conflict, policy science, administration organization science, institutional economics which are beneficial to multiply analyze the policy implementation conflict problems. Public policy, as the standards of action which the party and the government made out during the process of selecting, synthesizing, allotting, fulfilling the social public benefits according to the social goals at special time, are the valid regulation and adjustment to the contradictions or conflicts which always turn up by the objective community pursuing of their own greatest benefits. Therefore, public policies themselves are a kind of institutional arrangement to the contradictions and conflicts which exist in all kinds of benefit relations in public fields. Furthermore, the implementation of public policy, as a kind of legal action of the government, is the process of political action which puts the basic spirits and the basic contains of public policies into effect, and also is the specific process of the implementation which authoritatively allots social benefits or social resources, or the process of practical solution and adjustment to the social contradiction and conflict. Because of all sorts of factors existing, these or those conflict problems possible take place during the process of the implementation of public policy. The conflicts of the implementation of public policy are of the policy phenomena of mutually contradicting, disputing or attacking on these aspects as conception, attitude, mentality and action. which are aroused by the contradictions or differences of policy goals, consciousnesses and benefits and institutional deficiency existing between the subjects of implementing policy and the aiming subjects , between the subjects of implementing policy and the subjects of implementing policy, and between the aiming subjects and the aiming subjects during the process of the implementation of public policy . This paper mainly takes the contradiction and conflict existing the process of the policy implementation as the logical starting point of the research, and draws lessons from the theory achievements of the related conflict research for looking carefully at the policy implementation problems and giving synthetically and systematically researching the policy implementation and conflict problems. At the same time, the paper takes institutional analysis as the important researching instrument and concentrates on the theories achievements of institutional economics research, and try to logically analyze the institution supply to policy implementation conflict and analyze the impacts, the defects and the transformation for probing into the operation laws and the effective response systems. The institutional analysis methods we adopted, which taking Maxism point views as guidelines, and effectively absorbing the western New Institutional Economics theories and the basic hypothesis, and integrating our country's actual conditions, and following the important thoughts of the "Three Representives"of the Party as guide, with the attitudes such as Liberating thoughts, Seeking Truth from Fact, and Following the situation, try to analyze and study the conflict problems during the process of policy implementation for the purpose of serving the effective implementation of the party and nation policy and the constructive suggestion of solving the policy implementation conflicts.
