Abstract

China has gone through a quarter century of reform. To date, the market system is already firmly established, and China has formally become a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO). It can be said that the major issues of reform in the realm of the economy in China have already all been solved, and what remain as tasks to be completed are simply tasks of amending, repairing, and perfecting the system. Therefore, it is quite natural that people would start to focus their attention on issues of political reform. The Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) Sixteenth Congress is going to be convened this fall, and there it will complete a generational transition at the highest level of power and authority. The clamor for political reform has become increasingly loud and vocal in such a sensitive period, and there has been, and probably will continue to be, a resurfacing and resurgence of all kinds of arguments and views about these matters at this time.
