  • Abstract
    A new political system is proposed for the Chinese society as an alternative to the current system for academic study purpose. A country is similar to a big engineering system. For the system to achieve maximum efficiency and to operate smoothly, components such as culture, history, economy and international environments as well as available technologies must be carefully coordinated. The need of China´s political reform is not the focus here, rather, the article emphasizes what would the reformed system look like and how would the transition happen. The cost of the transition to the new political system is numerically analyzed. The stabilities of the current and proposed political systems are compared. A democratic and clean government can be achieved by the new political system conceptually.
