宗族在中国已有数千年的发展历史,至今在农村生产生活中发挥着巨大作用。由于宗族观念强烈,加之利益冲突、制度缺漏,宗族对基层选举会产生消极影响。然而,也应当看到宗族对选举产生的正面作用。多个宗族之间的博弈有利于促进良性竞争,激发民众的权利意识。为积极引导宗族势力发挥作用,可以考虑实行比例代表制、选区制,同时完善村委会选举监督制,以此消除负面影响,进而促进规范选举,落实直接民主,推动国家与乡村社会的互动,推进民主法治社会的构建。 Clans have been in China for thousands of years of development and so far have played a huge role in rural life. Due to the strong sense of clan, combined with the conflict of interest and the lack of system, clans have a negative impact on grassroots elections. However, the positive role of the clans on the election should also be seen. The game between multiple clans is conducive to promoting healthy competition and arousing people’s awareness of rights. In order to actively guide the clan forces to play their role, we can consider implementing proportional representation and the system of constituency elections while improving the system of village committee election supervision, so as to eliminate the negative effects and further promote the standardization of elections, implement direct democracy, promote the interaction between the state and rural communities, Promoting the Construction of a Democratic and Rule of Law Society.
