公文是国家行政机关表达政治意图、传递决策信息的重要载体工具,国家机器的正常运转离不开公文处理程序的运行与驱动。我国古代集权制的行政管理,紧紧依靠公文来实施决策、指挥、控制、组织、协调、监督、预测等活动。谁抓住了公文处理权,就等于抓住了“印把子”。公文处理权主要表现在批阅权、拟文权、审核权等方面,这是议事决策与书面指挥的重要依据。 Official documents are the important carrier tools for the state administrative organs to express their political intentions and transmit the decision-making information. The normal operation of state machines can not be separated from the operation and drive of official document processing procedures. In our country, the administration of centralized state in ancient China closely followed official documents to implement such activities as decision-making, command, control, organization, coordination, supervision and prediction. Who grasped the power to deal with documents, it is equivalent to seize the “Indian handgrip.” The right to deal with documents mainly manifests itself in the aspects of the right of reading, the proposed right of text, and the examination and approval, which are the important basis for decision making and written command.
