村民自治是我国广大农民依法通过民主选举、民主决策、民主管理和民主监督的形式,实行自我管理、自我教育、自我服务的一项基本制度。但由于不良竞选、村委会定位模糊和行为失范侵害了村民权利,导致群体性事件的发生。只有建立村委会的责任机制,明确村民自治的主体地位,完善监督体系,才能确保村民当家做主的权力,才能从源头上预防和减少群体性事件的发生。 Villagers’ self-government is a basic system by which the vast majority of peasants in our country practice self-management, self-education and self-service through the forms of democratic election, democratic decision-making, democratic management and democratic supervision according to law. However, due to poor campaigning, the village committees ambiguously vaguely positioned and their behaviors violated the villagers’ rights, leading to the mass incidents. Only by establishing the responsibility mechanism of the village committees, clarifying the dominant position of the villagers’ autonomy and perfecting the supervision system can the villagers ensure their rights as the masters of their own homeland so as to prevent and reduce mass incidents from the source.
