在本次研讨会中,境内外学者就超大城市的社会治理与社会政策研究进行了充分讨论,共同推动了对这一重大社会问题的学术研究。刚刚结束的党的二十大开启了全党全国各族人民迈向全面建设社会主义现代化国家的新征程。党的二十大报告指出,坚持人民城市人民建、人民城市为人民,提高城市规划、建设、治理水平,加快转变超大特大城市发展方式,实施城市更新行动,加强城市基础设施建设,打造宜居、韧性、智慧城市。同时,党的二十大报告还提出了完善社会治理体系的要求,包括健全共建共治共享的社会治理制度、提升社会治理效能,以及加快推进市域社会治理现代化、提高市域社会治理能力。本次国际研讨会深度结合了城市建设与社会治理两个主题,既是对党的二十大精神的学习与贯彻,也是对新时期社会科学应对超大城市治理难题的分析与展望。

 

In this conference, scholars at home and abroad had a full discussion on "Research on Social Governance and Social Policy in Mega City", conducted joint in-depth academic research on this major social issue, and promoted its progress. The just concluded 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) has opened a new journey for the people of all ethnic groups under the leadership of the CPC to comprehensively build a modern socialist country. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) pointed out that guided by the principle that cities should be built by the people and for the people, we should improve urban planning, construction and governance, accelerate the transformation of the development mode of megacities, implement urban renewal actions, strengthen urban infrastructure so as to build a livable, resilient and smart city. At the same time, the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) also proposed the requirements for improving the social governance system, including improving the social governance system of co-construction, co-governance and sharing, improving the efficiency of social governance, and accelerating the modernization of social governance in city area and improving the capacity of municipal social governance. This international conference deeply focuses on the two themes of urban construction and social governance. It is not only the study and implementation of the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC), but also the analysis and prospect of social science in dealing with the governance problems of megacities in the new era.
