2004年3月27日,是一个普通的星期六,可对于南京市白下区苜蓿园梅花山庄社区的居民来说,这是个很不平凡的一天。因为这一天他们在小区里举行了第一次“居民代表大会”,在两个多小时的会议中,到会的居民代表通过举手表决的方式罢免了本社区的现任社区居委会主任。罢免事件引起了不大不小的反响。正如一位社会学家指出的:“罢免”映射出我国政治文明建设的进程,公民的民主权利意识正在逐步增强,同时推动我们去进一步完善相关的法律制度,从而充分保障他们行使权利,其意义超出了事件本身。
March 27, 2004, an ordinary Saturday, can be an extraordinary day for residents of Plum Hill community in the Baicheng District of Nanjing. Because on that day they held their first “resident representative assembly” in their community. During the two-hour meeting, the resident representatives who attended the meeting dismissed the incumbent community neighborhood director by voting by show of hands. The recall caused a modest response. As one sociologist pointed out, “recalling” reflects the process of building political civilization in our country. Citizens’ awareness of their democratic rights is gradually increasing, and at the same time we are urged to further improve the relevant legal system so as to fully guarantee their exercise of their rights. Beyond the incident itself.
