Optimizing Pathways for County-level Discipline Inspection and Supervision Commissions Office Integration in the New Era from the Perspective of Holistic Governance

The integration of the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Commissions (DISC) in office is a primary component of the reform of the supervisory system, involving the integration and coordination of internal supervisory forces of the Party and the state. It is of significant importance for the modernization of the supervision system and supervisory capabilities. Based on the theory of holistic governance, this paper establishes a "System-Structure-Technology" theoretical analysis framework. It identifies three major challenges faced by the integrated DISC in practice: lagging institutional construction, ambiguous jurisdiction boundaries, and technological constraints. To build a closely linked and efficiently operating disciplinary inspection and supervision system, the paper proposes pathways including improving laws and regulations, promoting the connection between disciplinary and legal measures, strengthening coordination among and within DISCs at all levels, and breaking through technological barriers.
