编者按改革开放以来,伴随着社会主义市场经济体制的初步建立和政府机构的深化改革,我国工业行业协会有了较大发展,在推进行业自律,促进企业发展和协助政府实施宏观管理等方面,发挥着日益明显的作用。但是,行业协会总体上仍处于初建阶段,由于外部环境和自身建设等原因,还面临不少问题和困难,相当多的协会做了一些工作,但成效不大,不少协会处境艰难。我国加入WTO后,一方面新的形势要求加快行业协会的改革和发展,在国内外经济贸易方面进一步发挥作用;另一方面,由于对行业协会的法制建设滞后,社会各界对我国行业协会的地位、性质、作用、功能等问题,认识不尽一致,客观上也影响对协会的扶持、培育和健康发展。在建立社会主义市场经济体制进程中,中央多次指出,要转变政府职能,实行政企分开,发挥商会、行业协会等中介组织作用,规范社会中介机构的行为。正确理解中央关于培育发展行业协会等中介组织的指示精神,涉及到几个重要问题。本文结合企业改革、政府改革和市场体系建设的实际,谈了几点认识,与读者共同探讨。 Since the reform and opening up of the editors, along with the initial establishment of the socialist market economic system and the deepening reforms of government agencies, China’s industrial associations have made great progress.

A large number of associations have done some work, but the effectiveness is not great, and many associations are in a difficult position. After China’s accession to the WTO, on the one hand, the new situation calls for accelerating the reform and development of industry associations and further playing a role in domestic and international economic and trade. On the other hand, due to the lag in the legal construction of trade associations, the social community’s position in China’s industry associations. Problems such as nature, function, function, etc., are not consistent in understanding and objectively affect the support, cultivation, and healthy development of the association. In the process of establishing a socialist market economic system, the central government has repeatedly pointed out that it is necessary to change the functions of the government, separate the administration from the enterprises, give play to the role of intermediary organizations such as chambers of commerce and industry associations, and regulate the behavior of social intermediary agencies. Correctly understanding the instructions of the Central Government on cultivating and developing intermediary organizations such as industry associations involves several important issues. This article, based on the actualities of enterprise reforms, government reforms, and market system construction, discusses several points of understanding and discusses with readers.
