Preface
Governance of the country begins with governance over the Party, governance over the Party must be strict, and strict governance must be rule-based. As regulations of the Party are the pillars of a great Party for self-management and self-governance, to strengthen the institutional building of regulations of the Party is a long-term and fundamental way for full and strict governance over the Party. Since the 18th National Party Congress, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has, increatively putting forward the proposition that adhering to law-based governance of the country shall go hand in hand with coordinated progress and integrated construction of institutional governance over the Party, and rule-based governance over the Party, taken a series of forceful measures to advance institutional building of regulations of the Party and come up with a system of Party rules and regulations based on the Party Constitution as the fundamental and supported by several systemic sets of regulations of the Party. By continuing to enhance and improve the leadership of the Party, notable progress has been made in modernizing China's system and capacity for governance, the institutional advantage of the Party being better converted into practical efficacy of governance of the country. Capacity and competence of scientific, democratic, and law-based exercise of state power continues to enhance. Rule- based governance over the Party is a vivid embodiment of the theory, thinking and mode of the rule of law of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Adhering to the organic unity of law-based governance of the country and rule-based governance over the Party is a successful experience gained by the CPC in the practice of governing the country, an innovation and development on Marxist theories on the state, the political party, and the rule of law, attracting attention and approbation of the international community. Many political parties and political figures of foreign countries attach importance to it and are interested in strengthening exchange and mutual learning in this regard.
With a view to helping political parties, political organizations and pertinent figures to better understand the CPC concerning the conditions of institutional governance over the Party, and rule-based governance over the Party and to furthering exchange of experiences on governing the country, the International Department of the Central Committee of the CPC takes the lead and concerned departments such as Party Regulations and Documents Bureau of the General Office of the Central Committee of the CPC participate in compiling, translating and publishing Selected Institutions of Rule-Based Governance over the Communist Party of China.
