Preface


The People's Republic of China is a unitary multinational State created jointly by the people of all its nationalities. Regional national autonomy is the basic policy adopted by the Communist Party of China for the solution of the national question in China through its application of Marxism-Leninism; it is a basic political system of the State.


Regional national autonomy means that the minority nationalities, under unified State leadership, practise regional autonomy in areas where they live in concentrated communities and set up organs of self-government for the exercise of the power of autonomy. Regional national autonomy embodies the State's full respect for and guarantee of the right of the minority nationalities to administer their internal affairs and its adherence to the principle of equality, unity and common prosperity for all the nationalities.


Regional national autonomy has played an enormous role in giving full play to the initiative of all the nationalities as masters of the country, in developing among them a socialist relationship of equality, unity and mutual assistance, in consolidating the unification of the country and in promoting socialist construction in the national autonomous areas and the rest of the country. In the years to come, continued efforts shall be made to uphold and improve the system of regional national autonomy, so that it will play a greater role in the country's socialist modernization drive.


It has been proven by practice that adherence to regional national autonomy requires that the national autonomous areas be given effective guarantees for implementing State laws and policies in the light of existing local conditions; that large numbers of cadres at various levels and specialized personnel and skilled workers of various professions and trades be trained from among the minority nationalities; that the national autonomous areas strive to promote local socialist construction in the spirit of self-reliance and hard work and contribute to the nation's construction as a whole; and that the State strive to help the national autonomous areas speed up their economic and cultural development in accordance with the plans for national economic and social development. In the effort to maintain the unity of the nationalities, both big-nation chauvinism, mainly Han chauvinism, and local national chauvinism must be opposed.


Under the leadership of the Communist Party of China and the guidance of Marxism-Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought and Deng Xiaoping Theory, the people of various nationalities in the autonomous areas shall, together with the people of the whole country, adhere to the people's democratic dictatorship and to the policy of reform and opening to the outside world, march along the road of constructing socialism with Chinese characteristics, concentrate their efforts on the socialist modernization drive, develop the socialist market economy, foster the development of socialist democracy and the socialist legal system, enhance socialist cultural and ideological progress, speed up the economic and cultural development of the national autonomous areas, work towards their unity and prosperity and strive for the common prosperity of all the nationalities and for the transformation of China into a prosperous, powerful, democratic and culturally advanced socialist country.


The "Law of the People's Republic of China on Regional National Autonomy" is the basic law for the implementation of the system of regional national autonomy prescribed in the Constitution.

 序言


中华人民共和国是全国各族人民共同缔造的统一的多民族国家。民族区域自治是中国共产党运用马克思列宁主义解决我国民族问题的基本政策,是国家的一项基本政治制度。
民族区域自治是在国家统一领导下,各少数民族聚居的地方实行区域自治,设立自治机关,行使自治权。实行民族区域自治,体现了国家充分尊重和保障各少数民族管理本民族内部事务权利的精神,体现了国家坚持实行各民族平等、团结和共同繁荣的原则。
实行民族区域自治,对发挥各族人民当家作主的积极性,发展平等、团结、互助的社会主义民族关系,巩固国家的统一,促进民族自治地方和全国社会主义建设事业的发展,都起了巨大的作用。今后,继续坚持和完善民族区域自治制度,使这一制度在国家的社会主义现代化建设进程中发挥更大的作用。
实践证明,坚持实行民族区域自治,必须切实保障民族自治地方根据本地实际情况贯彻执行国家的法律和政策;必须大量培养少数民族的各级干部、各种专业人才和技术工人;民族自治地方必须发扬自力更生、艰苦奋斗精神,努力发展本地方的社会主义建设事业,为国家建设作出贡献;国家根据国民经济和社会发展计划,努力帮助民族自治地方加速经济和文化的发展。在维护民族团结的斗争中,要反对大民族主义,主要是大汉族主义,也要反对地方民族主义。
民族自治地方的各族人民和全国人民一道,在中国共产党的领导下,在马克思列宁主义、毛泽东思想、邓小平理论的指引下,坚持人民民主专政,坚持改革开放,沿着建设有中国特色社会主义的道路,集中力量进行社会主义现代化建设,发展社会主义市场经济,加强社会主义民主与法制建设,加强社会主义精神文明建设,加速民族自治地方经济、文化的发展,建设团结、繁荣的民族自治地方,为各民族的共同繁荣,把祖国建设成为富强、民主、文明的社会主义国家而努力奋斗。
《中华人民共和国民族区域自治法》是实施宪法规定的民族区域自治制度的基本法律。
