Abstract:
Lenin’s theory and practice of inner-party supervision is the creative ideological wealth and precious political legacy he has left us. His theoretical logic of strengthening inner-party supervision lies in the contractual nature of inner-party power. That is to say, the inner-party power comes from the granting and entrusting of the power: The leading bodies and leaders of the Party are the trustees, all members of the Party are the settlors, and it is natural for the former to act under the supervision of the latter. Lenin’s practical consideration of strengthening inner-party supervision is mainly to fight against the increasingly serious bureaucracy and abuse of power for personal gaining and to restrain the highly centralized power within the Party. He hoped to prevent the corruption of the Party and avoid arbitrary decision making within the Party by means of inner-party supervision. As for how to strengthen inner-party supervision, Lenin emphasized that we should give full play to the top-down supervision function from the Party Congress to the grass-roots Party organizations, establish and improve the independent inner-party supervision institutions: enhancing their status and authority, raising the quality of and benefits enjoyed by the staff of inner-party supervision institutions, and paying attention to the role of newspapers and magazines in supervising the wrong doings with the Party.
