Abstract:The Workers' Congress is a basic form of enterprise democratic management with Chinese characteristics established and developed by the CPC, and its development dynamics, participation fi elds, and powers have shown different characteristics across different historical periods. In the revolutionary period, stimulating workers' production enthusiasm was its main development dynamic; in the construction period, socialist ideology and political democracy became the major development dynamics; since the era of the reform and opening up, safeguarding workers' legitimate rights and interests has become increasingly dominant. Moreover, the participation fi elds and powers of the Workers' Congress have also become increasingly clear and rational in the historical development process. They enjoy the right to deliberate and propose on production and operation affairs, the right to deliberate and pass important matters concerning workers' vital interests, as well as the right to evaluate and supervise enterprise leaders, and elect workers' directors and supervisors. These power characteristics both conform to the rational requirements of capital accumulation and take into account various reasonable demands of workers in the enterprise.
