Rise in 80 years of the 20th century, the Deliberative democracy was a complement to Electoral democracy. It means the free and equal citizens, under the common demands of public interest, through rational negotiation, to reach a consensus, in order to give legitimacy to legislation and decision-making. Chinese grassroots deliberative democracy is a kind of democracy form, it means people can express their demands through a free,equal and open discussion under the leadership of the Communist Party. In addition to the general features of deliberative democracy, that is inclusive, rational, procedural, openness, equality, consensus and so on, Chinese grassroots deliberative democracy also has the special characteristics.Chinese grass-roots social's diversification after the Roform and Opening up, Chinese Political consultation system, and the objective requirement of grassroots democracy's promotion laid the foundation of deliberative democracy's developoment in Chinese grass-roots social. At present, Chinese grassroots deliberative democracy has many practical forms. These practices have achieved important results, but there are also many problems: democratic consultation in some areas are just mere formality, there are irrational participations, vulnerable groups's participation is inequality, the motivation of participation is difficult to translate into liability from interest, grassroots deliberative democracy is difficult to play a effective role in the political and economic. There are many reasons: most people lack a profound understanding of the value of consultation, most ordinary people are poor in capacity to participate in consultation, there are no supervision of the process and the final results'implementation of the consultation, and there are also no uniform evaluation criteria about consultation. In order to address these issues, we shoule start from three main aspects. First, consolidate the social basis of the Grassroots Deliberative Democracy's further development; The second is to create a good political culture environment, and to improve people's capablity of consultation; The third, try to establish grassroots Deliberative democracy instituation that fit for China, in order to achieve the instituationalization.
