第二章　黨的組織制度

Chapter II. The Party’s Organizational System

第十條　黨是根據(jù)自己的綱領(lǐng)和章程，按照民主集中制組織起來的統(tǒng)一整體。黨的民主集中制的基本原則是：

Article 10: The Party is an integral body organized under its own program and Constitution and on the basis of democratic centralism. The Party’s basic principles of democratic centralism are as follows:

（一）黨員個(gè)人服從黨的組織，少數(shù)服從多數(shù)，下級組織服從上級組織，全黨各個(gè)組織和全體黨員服從黨的全國代表大會(huì)和中央委員會(huì)。

1) Individual Party members defer to Party organizations, the minority defers to the majority, lower-level Party organizations defer to higher-level Party organizations, and all organizations and members of the Party defer to the National Congress and the Central Committee of the Party.

（二）黨的各級領(lǐng)導(dǎo)機(jī)關(guān)，除它們派出的代表機(jī)關(guān)和在非黨組織中的黨組外，都由選舉產(chǎn)生。

2) Leading bodies of the Party at all levels, with the exception of their dispatched representative organs and the leading Party members groups in non-Party organizations, are generated by election.

（三）黨的最高領(lǐng)導(dǎo)機(jī)關(guān)，是黨的全國代表大會(huì)和它所產(chǎn)生的中央委員會(huì)。黨的地方各級領(lǐng)導(dǎo)機(jī)關(guān)，是黨的地方各級代表大會(huì)和它們所產(chǎn)生的委員會(huì)。黨的各級委員會(huì)向同級的代表大會(huì)負(fù)責(zé)并報(bào)告工作。

3) The highest leading bodies of the Party are the National Congress and the Central Committee which it elects. The Party’s local leading bodies are the Party congresses at each level and the Party committees which they elect. Party committees are responsible and shall report their work to the Party congress at the same level.

（四）黨的上級組織要經(jīng)常聽取下級組織和黨員群眾的意見，及時(shí)解決他們提出的問題。黨的下級組織既要向上級組織請示和報(bào)告工作，又要獨(dú)立負(fù)責(zé)地解決自己職責(zé)范圍內(nèi)的問題。上下級組織之間要互通情報(bào)、互相支持和互相監(jiān)督。黨的各級組織要按規(guī)定實(shí)行黨務(wù)公開，使黨員對黨內(nèi)事務(wù)有更多的了解和參與。

4) Higher-level Party organizations shall listen regularly to the views of lower-level organizations and rank-and-file Party members, and respond quickly to the problems they raise. Lower-level Party organizations shall report on their work to and request instructions from higher-level Party organizations; at the same time, they shall handle, independently and responsibly, matters within their jurisdiction. Higher- and lower-level Party organizations shall exchange information and support and oversee each other. Party organizations at all levels shall practice transparency in Party affairs in accordance with regulations, helping Party members to be better informed of internal Party affairs and enabling them greater opportunity to participate.

（五）黨的各級委員會(huì)實(shí)行集體領(lǐng)導(dǎo)和個(gè)人分工負(fù)責(zé)相結(jié)合的制度。凡屬重大問題都要按照集體領(lǐng)導(dǎo)、民主集中、個(gè)別醞釀、會(huì)議決定的原則，由黨的委員會(huì)集體討論，作出決定；委員會(huì)成員要根據(jù)集體的決定和分工，切實(shí)履行自己的職責(zé)。

5) Party committees at all levels shall function on the principle of combining collective leadership with individual responsibility based on the division of work. Decisions on all major issues shall be made through discussion by the Party committee concerned in accordance with the principles of collective leadership, democratic centralism, pre-meeting contemplation, and meeting-based decision making. Members of Party committees shall act in earnest to fulfill their respective obligations in accordance with the collective decisions made and the division of work.

（六）黨禁止任何形式的個(gè)人崇拜。要保證黨的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的活動(dòng)處于黨和人民的監(jiān)督之下，同時(shí)維護(hù)一切代表黨和人民利益的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的威信。

6) The Party proscribes all forms of personality cult. It shall be ensured that the activities of Party leaders are subject to oversight by the Party and the people, while at the same time upholding the standing of all leaders who represent the interests of the Party and the people.

第十一條　黨的各級代表大會(huì)的代表和委員會(huì)的產(chǎn)生，要體現(xiàn)選舉人的意志。選舉采用無記名投票的方式。候選人名單要由黨組織和選舉人充分醞釀?dòng)懻??？梢灾苯硬捎煤蜻x人數(shù)多于應(yīng)選人數(shù)的差額選舉辦法進(jìn)行正式選舉。也可以先采用差額選舉辦法進(jìn)行預(yù)選，產(chǎn)生候選人名單，然后進(jìn)行正式選舉。選舉人有了解候選人情況、要求改變候選人、不選任何一個(gè)候選人和另選他人的權(quán)利。任何組織和個(gè)人不得以任何方式強(qiáng)迫選舉人選舉或不選舉某個(gè)人。

Article 11: The election of delegates to Party congresses and members of Party committees, at all levels, shall reflect the will of the voters. Elections shall be held by secret ballot. Lists of candidates shall be fully deliberated and discussed by Party organizations and voters. The method of nominating a greater number of candidates than the number of persons to be elected may be adopted to directly carry out a formal election, or this method may first be used in a preliminary election to generate a list of candidates for the formal election that is to follow. Voters have the right to inquire about candidates, request a change in candidates, decline to vote for any of the candidates, or choose to vote for someone who is not a candidate. No organization or individual shall in any way compel a voter to vote or not vote for a candidate.

黨的地方各級代表大會(huì)和基層代表大會(huì)的選舉，如果發(fā)生違反黨章的情況，上一級黨的委員會(huì)在調(diào)查核實(shí)后，應(yīng)作出選舉無效和采取相應(yīng)措施的決定，并報(bào)再上一級黨的委員會(huì)審查批準(zhǔn)，正式宣布執(zhí)行。

If the Party Constitution is thought to have been violated in any way during the election of a delegate to a local Party congress at any level or to a Party congress at the primary level, after investigation and verification, the Party committee at the next level up shall issue a decision to declare the election invalid and take appropriate measures, and report this decision to the Party committee at the next level up to be checked and approved before it is formally announced and implemented.

黨的各級代表大會(huì)代表實(shí)行任期制。

A tenure system shall be adopted for delegates to Party congresses at all levels.

第十二條　黨的中央和地方各級委員會(huì)在必要時(shí)召集代表會(huì)議，討論和決定需要及時(shí)解決的重大問題。代表會(huì)議代表的名額和產(chǎn)生辦法，由召集代表會(huì)議的委員會(huì)決定。

Article 12: The Central Committee and local committees at all levels shall, when necessary, convene a conference of delegates to discuss and make decisions on a major problem that requires prompt resolution. The number of delegates to attend and the procedures for generating the list of delegates shall be determined by the Party committee convening the conference.

第十三條　凡是成立黨的新組織，或是撤銷黨的原有組織，必須由上級黨組織決定。

Article 13: Every instance of a new Party organization being formed or an existing Party organization being dissolved must be decided on by a Party organization at a higher level.

在黨的地方各級代表大會(huì)和基層代表大會(huì)閉會(huì)期間，上級黨的組織認(rèn)為有必要時(shí)，可以調(diào)動(dòng)或者指派下級黨組織的負(fù)責(zé)人。

When the congress of a local Party organization at any level or the congress of a primary-level Party organization is not in session, the Party organization at the next level up may, when it deems necessary, transfer or designate the persons responsible for the lower-level Party organization.

黨的中央和地方各級委員會(huì)可以派出代表機(jī)關(guān)。

中央有關(guān)部委和國家機(jī)關(guān)部門黨組（黨委）根據(jù)工作需要，開展巡視工作。

The leading Party members groups or Party committees of the departments and offices under the Party Central Committee and the State Council shall carry out inspections in response to the needs of their work.

City (including prefecture and league) and county (including county-level city, district, and banner) Party committees shall establish a discipline inspection system.

第十五條　黨的各級領(lǐng)導(dǎo)機(jī)關(guān)，對同下級組織有關(guān)的重要問題作出決定時(shí)，在通常情況下，要征求下級組織的意見。要保證下級組織能夠正常行使他們的職權(quán)。凡屬應(yīng)由下級組織處理的問題，如無特殊情況，上級領(lǐng)導(dǎo)機(jī)關(guān)不要干預(yù)。

Article 15: When making a decision on an important issue affecting a lower-level organization, a leading body of the Party at any level shall, under normal circumstances, solicit the opinions of the lower-level organization. It shall be ensured that the lower-level organization is able to exercise its functions and powers as usual. Except in exceptional circumstances, no higher-level leading body shall interfere in any matter that ought to be handled by a lower-level organization.

第十六條　有關(guān)全國性的重大政策問題，只有黨中央有權(quán)作出決定，各部門、各地方的黨組織可以向中央提出建議，但不得擅自作出決定和對外發(fā)表主張。

Article 16: Only the Central Committee of the Party has the power to make decisions on major national policies. The Party organization of a department or locality may make suggestions to the Central Committee with regard to such policies, but shall not make any decision or express their views outside the Party without authorization.

黨的下級組織必須堅(jiān)決執(zhí)行上級組織的決定。下級組織如果認(rèn)為上級組織的決定不符合本地區(qū)、本部門的實(shí)際情況，可以請求改變；如果上級組織堅(jiān)持原決定，下級組織必須執(zhí)行，并不得公開發(fā)表不同意見，但有權(quán)向再上一級組織報(bào)告。

Lower-level Party organizations must resolutely implement the decisions of higher-level Party organizations. In the event a lower-level organization believes a decision of a higher-level organization to be unsuitable for the specific circumstances of its locality or department, it may request that the decision be revised. If the higher-level organization decides to maintain its original decision, the lower-level organization must carry out the decision and refrain from publicly voicing any differences of opinion, but reserves the right to report the matter to a Party organization at the next level up.

黨的各級組織的報(bào)刊和其他宣傳工具，必須宣傳黨的路線、方針、政策和決議。

Newspapers, periodicals, and other media used in publicity run by Party organizations at all levels must feature information on the lines, principles, policies, and resolutions of the Party.

第十七條　黨組織討論決定問題，必須執(zhí)行少數(shù)服從多數(shù)的原則。決定重要問題，要進(jìn)行表決。對于少數(shù)人的不同意見，應(yīng)當(dāng)認(rèn)真考慮。如對重要問題發(fā)生爭論，雙方人數(shù)接近，除了在緊急情況下必須按多數(shù)意見執(zhí)行外，應(yīng)當(dāng)暫緩作出決定，進(jìn)一步調(diào)查研究，交換意見，下次再表決；在特殊情況下，也可將爭論情況向上級組織報(bào)告，請求裁決。

Article 17: In discussing and making decisions on a matter, Party organizations must uphold the principle of the minority respecting the majority. When a decision is being made on a major issue, a vote shall be held. Serious consideration should be given to the differing views of a minority. In case of disagreement on a major issue where the numbers in support of each view are closely matched, except in an emergency when action must be taken according to the majority view, the decision should be delayed and further investigation, research, and exchange of opinions should be undertaken before another vote is held. In exceptional circumstances, the disagreement may also be reported to the Party organization at the next level up and a verdict requested.

黨員個(gè)人代表黨組織發(fā)表重要主張，如果超出黨組織已有決定的范圍，必須提交所在的黨組織討論決定，或向上級黨組織請示。任何黨員不論職務(wù)高低，都不能個(gè)人決定重大問題；如遇緊急情況，必須由個(gè)人作出決定時(shí)，事后要迅速向黨組織報(bào)告。不允許任何領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人實(shí)行個(gè)人專斷和把個(gè)人凌駕于組織之上。

In the event that an individual Party member is to express a view on a major issue on behalf of his or her Party organization that goes beyond the scope of the organization’s existing decisions, the content must be referred to that organization for prior discussion and a decision, or referred to the Party organization at the next level up for instruction. No Party member, whatever his or her position, may act alone in making a decision on a major issue. In case of emergency, when a decision by an individual is unavoidable, the matter must be reported to his or her Party organization immediately after the event. No leader may make decisions arbitrarily or place him or herself above his or her Party organization.

第十八條　黨的中央、地方和基層組織，都必須重視黨的建設(shè)，經(jīng)常討論和檢查黨的宣傳工作、教育工作、組織工作、紀(jì)律檢查工作、群眾工作、統(tǒng)一戰(zhàn)線工作等，注意研究黨內(nèi)外的思想政治狀況。

Article 18: Organizations of the Party at the central, local, and primary levels must all give serious attention to Party building; regularly discuss and examine the Party’s promotional, educational, and organizational work, discipline inspection, its work with the people, and its work related to the united front; and carefully study current thinking and political trends both within and outside the Party.
