The intrinsic value of the Chinese deliberative democracy lies in manifesting human's dignity. This kind of intrinsic value is the same as the socialism harmonious society request in realizing each person's freedom and the full scale development.Second, it has deep theory inside story. Mao Zedong's speech at representative assembly in Shanxi, Gansu and Ningxia border in November 1941, pointed out that,"The national affairs are national official business, are not a party school of private affairs. Therefore, the Communist party member only have the duty of implementing the democracy cooperation to the non-party personage, none the rights of repelling others and monopolizing all". Zhou Enlai had proposed about the deliberative democracy thought. As early as in the People's Political Consultative Conference establishment initial period, around the People's Political Consultative Conference had been established, Zhou Enlai proposed the political consultation as a new democracy characteristic. The Mao Zedong democratic political idea had been developed by the second generation of leader collective of Chinese Communist Party with Comrade Deng Xiaoping as the core. Deng Xiaoping pointed out that,"Chinese socialism modernization enterprise needs consultative discussion and the mutual supervision of the Political Consultative Conference on national major policies, political life and each social economy question of the four modernizations construction","the People's Political Consultative Conference is a important form in carrying forward the socialist democracy and implementing the mutual supervision in our political system". Deng Xiaoping located the political consultation and the mutual supervision in our country political system as one of the democratic system forms. He lay the foundation for the development of deliberative democracy in our country. Comrade Jiang Zemin pointed out that,"The Chinese Communist Party leads the multi-party cooperation system and the political consultation system, which is the basic political system of China. We must know fully the superiority of this basic system. We should persist it, perfect it, carry out it."He proposed establish and perfect the necessary measures to cause the multi-party cooperation be further standardized and institutionalized. All levels of party committees carry on the significant human affairs decision-making must consult to the democratic parties and the non-party personage. We must expand the knowledge circumstances and the participation degree of democratic parties, and further do well in the participation in government and deliberation over governmental affairs. We should specially consummate the democratic supervision mechanism and unimpeded channel of common people's mood reaching higher authorities to enlarge democratic supervision dynamics". Since the 16thPeople's Congress, As general secretary's Central Committee of the CCP Comrade Hu Jintao takes a long-range approach.

The deliberative democracy was proposed officially at "the Central Committee of the CCP about Strengthens People's Political Consultative Conference Work in 2006 Opinion"; But the thought and practice of deliberative democracy may say had formed as People's Political Consultative Conference establishment. After inspecting the development practice of our country deliberative democracy ,it may divide into four stages roughly: From old Political Consultative Conference after Sino-Japanese War victory in 1946 to new Political Consultative Conference in 1949, this is formative years of deliberative democracy in our country; From 1949 to 1954, this is the People's Political Consultative Conference carried out the National People's Congress authority time, also is establishment about the consultative democracy basic thought time; From 1954 to 1966, this is the thought and the practice of deliberative democracy further development time in China, but in the later period because of"left"wrong influence it suffered the winding; From 1978 until now, this is the new time when multi-party cooperation and the political deliberative develop into our country's basic political system and writes into "Constitution of the People's Republic of China", and the deliberative democracy obtains the establishment as one of two important forms of our country socialist democracy.Fourth, it has the Chinese characteristic pattern. Our country multi-party cooperation and the political deliberative system has own characteristics and the merits, which formed the Chinese characteristic deliberative democratic system pattern. This system pattern prominent characteristic is the leadership of the Communist Party of China. Multi-party cooperation and the political consultation system leaded by the Communist Party of China are our country's basic political system. Here, the China communist leadership is basic and premise. Therefore, to persist and consummate the deliberative democracy, we must carry it on in the country political system frame and persist the leadership of Communist Party of China in the political principle, the political direction and the significant general and specific policies. We must implement earnestly carries out the multi-party cooperation and the political consultation system, and impel the communist leadership be accepted by who attend the People's Political Consultative Conference ,by various democratic parties, the mass organization and various races people from all walks of life on own initiative; Impel that the multi-party cooperation and the political consultation system has highly comprehensive, the multi-party cooperation and the political consultation system has the high consultation and the multi-party cooperation and the political consultation system has highly the cooperation.Fifth, it has the solid constitution system. The multi-party cooperation and the political consultation system, this kind of institutional consultation democracy are divided into two aspects: One is deliberative democracy, which take the People's Political Consultative Conference as the organization shape, namely Communist Party of China in Chinese political consultative conference with various democratic parties and representative from all walks of life public figure's consultation; Two is outside the People's Political Consultative Conference, political consultation between Communist Party of China and various democratic party. These two aspects are mutually overlapping, mutually for the supplement. The deliberative democracy of inside the People's Political Consultative Conference is organizational and authoritative, While deliberative democracy outside the People's Political Consultative Conference has authority and flexibility.Sixth, it has the unique realization way. There are three realization ways specifically, namely political consultation, participation in government and deliberation over governmental affairs, democratic supervision.Seventh, it has growing reasonable operation regulations by certain rule and procedure. The deliberative democracy carries on the widespread fermentation and the repeatedly democratic consultation on decision-making question before the significant policy make in the country .It will enhance the policy-making democratization and the scientific degree.Eighth, after years of development, our country's deliberative democracy has made significant achievements.

In aspects of the social life, grass-roots democracy and social system of self-government are important social foundations for the development of consultations on the political life. Because in practice there are some shortages, we should further promote China's democratic consensus-building. The CPPCC members should be full-time, all the work into the open, and the work of the CPPCC should be standardized and institutionalized.Our country's deliberative democracy is deeply rooted in the Chinese society's soil. It conforms to the essential request of socialist democracy politics. It reflects the characteristic and the superiority of the socialism politics system and the political party system. It has manifested the national various races people's basic interest. It demonstrates the huge superiority and the formidable vitality.
