The report of the 20th CPC National Congress has determined the development of full-process people's democracy as an important content of China's modernization, making comprehensive deployment and putting forward clear requirements for "developing full-process people's democracy and ensuring people's mastery of the country". In the first unit, we discussed what democracy is, explored the diverse views of democracy in the world today, and examined the specific embodiment of democratic centralism. As citizens of the People's Republic of China, we have diverse rights and duties, as well as equal political power, regardless of our roles in society. Reasonably, using the power we have to participate in social affairs is a duty that every citizen should fulfill.
The house is one of the basic units in the lunar exploration community where learners can participate in the management of school affairs through a reasonable decision-making mechanism. Learners are divided into four academies without regard to grade or gender, and each academy has its unique personality. When learners participate in the decision-making process of community affairs through the basic unit of the academy, a clear and reasonable decision-making mechanism can make the decision more efficient and transparent. In the world today, different countries will choose different decision-making mechanisms based on their national conditions, political systems, and systems of government. For example, China's People's congress system and the two-party system in the United States can provide suitable decision-making processes for their respective countries. We will take these two decision-making mechanisms as references and try to design a decision-making mechanism for the lunar exploration community based on the academy as the basic unit.
