The power of the highest organ of state power
Hi!

Sorry that I reverted you! I'm been busy the whole day - today I handed in my thesis!

As for the power of the highest organ of state power, I think your addition is confusing. Generally for the following reasons: TheUzbek (talk) 13:11, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) While most highest organs of state power have not had the freedom to counteract party policies, some have, such as the Yugoslav Assembly, the Laotian Assembly and the Vietnamese Assembly.. Of course, these assemblies do not rebel against communist power, but they make their powers felt.
 * 2) Another example is the Congress of People's Deputies under Gorbachev which was very much a debating body which rebelled against communist power.
 * 3) You are right that in some instances, especially under Stalin and Mao, the ruling party did not even bother calling in formal sessions of the highest organ of state power and party decisions became de facto law. However, in post-Stalin USSR and in present-day China this is seldom the case.
 * 4) NPC does have the ability to improve and amend party policies and documents somewhat, or at least work through them. But the most important decisions are usually adopted. But here again we have little knowledge. We do know that the Central Committee adopted policy A and then the NPC did the same a couple of days later, but we do not know if the NPC did not work on the proposal for policy A earlier as well.
 * 5) I will try to expand this article, but I will focus on the communist state article in the coming days.
