On The Construction Of Harmonious Rules In Socialist Society

Rule is a series of orderly activities between man and man conditioned by relations of production. Society is a community in which a number of people are interrelated following certain rules. In this community, only the stabilized and orderly social rules are established can the essential rights of the majority of community members be protected. So building the stabilized and orderly social rules is indispensable to social harmony. Harmonious rules are not only the state of natural and benevolent development of social ecology, but also the essential outcome of scientific treatment of social problems. Constructing harmonious rules is the basic demand and the important content of building a harmonious socialist society. What's more, it is the internal requirement of social development and essence of accomplishing socialism featured by Chinese traits as well. This paper, under the theoretical framework of harmonious socialist society, applies metaphysical materialism, historical materialism and associates theory with practice to expound, from various perspectives, on issues including the meaning, features, the way of building harmonious rules in socialist society and the significance of that in a practical and realistic manner.The paper begins with the discussion of social order's connoation. Against the background of constructing a harmonious society, the paper proposes to construct a harmonious socialist social order and emphasizes the complementary dialectical relationship between a harmonious order and a harmonious society. The basic characteristics of a harmonious socialist order are as follows: it is with the agreement of social interests; it prompts the benevolent social development; it develops and perfects itself continuously; it is an open order with powerful adjustment and controlling ability.Based on the formation of social rules, the author put forward that harmonious social rules are established according to the combination of self- developed and compulsory rules and are constantly examined as well as perfected by practice. The establishment of harmonious social rules discussed in this paper is mainly about the way in which compulsory rules are formed. As China is a traditional civilized country boasting of long- standing history, self- developed rules have greatly altered during the five thousand years. However, whatever change it has experienced, it was based on current productive forces and production relations. What needs further study is how to better represent the developmental needs of China's advanced social productive forces, the onward direction of China's advanced culture and the fundamental interests as well as how to realize a fairly well- off society with the whole nation. Therefore, the focus of the paper has been laid on the government construction and party construction. It is mainly emphasized that to improve the construction of primary-level organizations, we should create a government which is democratic, honest, people-oriented and ruled by law. In order to establish a harmonious society with common interests which is conformed to the social and historical development rules, various methods are required namely legislative, moral, economical and administrative methods.
