On the Legitimacy Basis of Local Social Credit Legislative Power

Before China did not carry out unified legislation on social credit, local governments have carried out relevant work on social credit legislation. With the continuous development of society, relevant legislative work has entered a mature stage and gradually formed a complete system structure. From the perspective of the legislative model, China's social credit adopts the model of local first legislation, and there are some doubts about its legitimacy and rationality. In theory, it still leads to disputes over the legislative power of local society. In practice, there is a certain improper expansion or restriction of the legislative power of local social credit. This paper focuses on the basis of its legitimacy, based on China's unitary state structure and legislative system, systematically sorts out the controversial views of sisters, and then systematically demonstrates the legitimacy of the local social credit first legislative power from the four dimensions of local governance autonomy, constitutional principles, 'legislative law' first legislative rules, existing single law basis and realistic governance needs. It will improve the legal support for local social credit legislation, provide empirical reference for national unified credit legislation, and help the legal construction of social credit system.
