Abstract

At present, the social, economic and political development is unbalanced, and there is an inter-agency crisis. Especially, political institutions, as an important mechanism in the process of national development management, guide the people from the policies formulated by government organizations under populist policies and statements issued to parliament, from the majority voices of social needs, and vote for expectations and populism in elections. Therefore, this paper wants to put forward the idea that political institutions should formulate populist policies, which should not be ignored in the process of managing social needs. Its purpose is to study the management mode and process of social needs, rather than the state unilaterally exercising power in the process of public policy from the weakness of unlimited human needs. In 1997, as the starting point and strengthening of populist policies, various laws were used to regulate current populist policies and manage social needs. From the national perspective, from the current materialistic and consumerist society and society, an understanding of unmet needs management was established, so as to find a central point between populist policies and social needs, reduce differences of expectations and opinions, and achieve important results in the process of social demand management, including communication, system development and follow-up mechanism.
