Study on the Identity of Socialist Rule of Law Culture with Chinese Characteristics

Abstract

Party leadership is an essential feature of the socialist rule of law with Chinese characteristics, and the study of the homogeneity between the rule of law in China and Party leadership is of profound significance to the understanding of the socialist rule of law with Chinese characteristics. This paper stands in the field of Marxist scientific methodology, firstly, through the method of social cognition and evaluation, we answer the question of what the rule of law in China and the Party leadership are, and then, through the method of four Marxist social sciences, we argue why the two have the same nature. Then, through four Marxist social science methods, the paper argues "why the two have the same nature", namely: building a rule of law China and adhering to the Party's leadership are both based on the people's nature as a solid cornerstone; both have a strong socialist color with Chinese characteristics; in which building a rule of law China is an important content of the practice of adhering to the Party's leadership and the way to realize it; and adhering to the Party's leadership is a necessary principle of building a rule of law China and a strong guarantee. Finally, this paper also answers the question of "how to recognize and ensure the homogeneity of the two" from a practical point of view, i.e., to promote scientific legislation, strict law enforcement, fair justice and law-abiding by all people under the leadership of the Party.
