The Politics of Ningxiang in Hunan province in the People's Republic of China is structured in a dual party-government system like all other governing institutions in mainland China. Ningxiang's political system reflects the two major influences on the historical development of China: on the one hand, its legacy as an over 2,000 years feudal system region, and on the other, the powerful influence exerted by China's neighbor to the north, the Soviet Union.
The Mayor of Ningxiang is the highest-ranking official in the People's Government of Ningxiang or Ningxiang Municipal Government. However, in the city's dual party-government governing system, the Mayor has less power than the Communist Party of Ningxiang Municipal Committee Secretary, colloquially termed the "CPC Party Chief of Ningxiang" or "Communist Party Secretary of Ningxiang".
Ningxiang is governed by a democratically elected People's Congress, which corresponds to the parliament of democratic country. The Head of the Ningxiang Municipal Government is the Mayor. The Mayor's agreement is required for an Act of Ningxiang People's Congress to become law.[1] As of 2016, there were 373 Members of Ningxiang People's Congress, who were all elected.[2]
