-- to commemorate the 95th anniversary of the founding of the communist party of China
It has been 95 years since the birth of the communist party of China.
For the CPC, the past 95 years have been a time of struggle for national independence, liberation of the people and prosperity of the country. The past 95 years have been devoted to the fundamental interests of the people of all ethnic groups in China. In the past 95 years, we have followed the trend of The Times and, in light of changes in the objective situation, put forward new theories, lines, principles and policies to advance history. It is also the past 95 years in which we have continuously strengthened our self-improvement in overcoming various erroneous tendencies within the party and eliminating various negative and corrupt phenomena.
China has never had such a political bloc in its history. It has grown from a small party with only a few dozen members to a mature and powerful marxist party in a short period of time after going through hardships. It has led a big country in the east along the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics and made remarkable achievements.
This historical phenomenon is by no means accidental, but has its deep internal reasons, which are determined by the nature of the CPC itself and its unique advantages.
The communist party of China is a party of lofty and unswerving ideals
Since its founding, the communist party of China has regarded the realization of communism as its highest ideal. Comrade xi jinping pointed out: "our party is based on marxism, takes the realization of communism as the highest ideal, and takes serving the people wholeheartedly as the fundamental purpose. This is what communists are for."
The realization of communism needs to go through a long historical process, which can be divided into several stages of development. This is why the communist party of China divides its program of struggle into the highest program and the lowest program. At every stage of history, our party has clearly put forward a concrete program of struggle that represents the interests and aspirations of the overwhelming majority of the people at that stage. And in the realization of the current task, do not forget the vision of the best great ideal, do not make themselves lost in the complicated environment, and with this great ideal unity and inspire people to achieve the current task and struggle. Thus, the realization of the highest ideal is closely linked with the completion of specific tasks in each historical stage.
The Chinese communists have mastered the "telescope" of marxism, making themselves broad-minded and capable of long-term strategic vision and scientific foresight. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, when the great revolution failed, there was pessimism within the party about how long the red flag would last. At this critical juncture, comrade MAO zedong confidently put forward the scientific conclusion that "a single spark can start a prairie fire". Shortly after the outbreak of the war of resistance against Japan, comrade MAO zedong timely put forward the strategic guidelines for protracted war, and accurately revealed the law of the development of China's war of resistance against Japan. At this historic moment when China's democratic revolution is about to triumph, the party central committee and comrade MAO zedong made clear and clear stipulations on the fundamental political system of new China as well as the policies to be adopted in economic, political and diplomatic aspects. During the decades of socialist modernization after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the party central committee, while focusing on the current tasks, began to plan for the future, making basic plans and visions for the next five years, ten years, decades and even longer. This has enabled the whole party and the whole people to have a common and clear goal to strive for, to maintain continuity in the party's policies, to link today's development with tomorrow's, and to combine current interests with long-term ones. This is not possible in countries where political parties rotate in and out of power.
When talking about reform, comrade deng xiaoping once said, "the significance of reform is to lay a good foundation for sustainable development for the next decade and the first half of the next century. Without reform, there will be no sustainable development in the future. So reform is not just about three or five years, but about 20 years, the first 50 years of the next century." Comrade xi jinping praised comrade deng xiaoping for seeing far and thinking deeply. As the general secretary of our party, comrade xi jinping also has a broad vision. He said, "if you don't plan ahead, there will be immediate worries. How should we go after finishing building a moderately prosperous society in all respects? How to break out of the 'historical periodic rate' and implement long-term governance? How to achieve lasting peace and stability of the party and the country? These are big questions that we need to think about."
The communist party of China represents the fundamental interests of the whole nation and serves the people wholeheartedly
The communist party of China is the vanguard of the Chinese working class as well as the Chinese people and the Chinese nation. It is not only loyal to the interests of the Chinese working class, but also loyal to the interests of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation. Early in the Anti-Japanese War, comrade MAO zedong declared to the world: "our communist party is the vanguard of the proletariat, but also the most thorough national liberation vanguard. "The communist party is a party that serves the interests of the nation and the people. In every period of revolution, construction and reform, the destiny of the communist party of China has always been closely linked with the destiny of the Chinese nation and the Chinese people.
Serving the people wholeheartedly as the fundamental purpose of the communist party of China is the fundamental mark that distinguishes it from all other political parties, and the place where it wins the most. The reason why the communist party of China can survive, develop and grow in the extremely harsh social conditions is that it is rooted in the people, working tirelessly and striving for the interests of the people. The whole history of the communist party of China has proved that serving the people well or disconnecting from the people and going against their will is the key to victory or defeat for the communist party of China.
The fundamental purpose of serving the people is embodied in the party's theory, line, principles and policies, in its governing philosophy and in its work style. Comrade MAO zedong pointed out in his article "on coalition government" : "twenty-four years of experience tells us that all correct tasks, policies and work styles are appropriate to the needs of the local people at that time and are in contact with them. Any erroneous task, policy or work style is incompatible with the requirements of the masses at that time and place and is divorced from them." Comrade deng xiaoping has made it the starting point and the end-result of our party to formulate all its policies and principles whether the people support them or not, whether they are in favor of them or not, whether they are happy or not, and whether they are willing or not. That is to say, whether it conforms to the interests of the broad masses of the people is the fundamental criterion for testing the correctness of the party's line, principles and policies. Comrade jiang zemin and comrade hu jintao also have many incisive discussions in this respect. Comrade xi jinping said, "the communist party of China is committed to governing for the people, and the people's aspiration for a better life is our goal. My governing philosophy can be summed up as: serve the people and assume the responsibilities that are due to them." This is the fundamental starting point for the CPC to plan domestic and international events.
Since the reform and opening up, our society has presented a complex pattern of diversified interest demands. Differences in interest demands will lead to conflicts, and poor handling will lead to conflicts. Only the communist party of China has the prestige, strength and means to find the greatest common ground of the will and demands of the whole society, adopt a policy of giving overall consideration and the method of democratic consultation, properly handle various contradictions and integrate the entire Chinese nation. In this process, our party is particularly concerned about the fundamental interests of ordinary workers. As comrade xi jinping has said, "to realize, safeguard and develop the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people, we must, in particular, realize, safeguard and develop the fundamental interests of ordinary workers."
China will finish building a moderately prosperous society in all respects by 2020. To complete the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects, we will focus on building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, involving different social sectors and covering different regions and groups of people, so that the fruits of development will be Shared by all the people in a more equitable way. The key to building a moderately prosperous society in all respects lies in the countryside. Comrade xi jinping pointed out that "we cannot build a moderately prosperous society in all respects without building a moderately prosperous society in the countryside, especially in the poor areas." In particular, he stressed that no nation can build a moderately prosperous society in all respects. Organizations at all levels of the communist party of China have set a goal of lifting all the poor people out of poverty by 2020. This is a great project of historic significance and an important part of realizing our long-term vision.
The communist party of China is a centralized and unified party
The reason why the CPC has strong cohesion and combat effectiveness and can become the core of leadership lies in the unity, centralism and unity of the entire party based on common ideals and beliefs. By centralism and unity, we mean that the highest power of the party lies in the central committee, and that the whole party should maintain consistency with the central committee and consciously uphold its authority.
Comrade MAO zedong put it at the preparatory meeting of the seventh National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 1945: "we should keep in line with the basic standards of the central committee and the general assembly. Alignment is the principle, deviation is the actual life, deviation, call alignment. Seventy years later, comrade xi jinping put forward the question of keeping in line with the central government. He said: "often and actively look up to the party central committee, to the party's theory, line, principles and policies." This question has been raised twice in the past 70 years, both at important historical points and of great significance.
Today, the historical conditions and social environment in which the communist party of China is living are very different from those of the revolutionary war years, and great changes have taken place since the beginning of the new China's planned economy. Comrade xi jinping pointed out: "at present, the development of our country has entered a critical period, reform GongJianQi, sharp contradictions, we are faced with the contradiction is more complex, both the long-term accumulation of contradictions in the past, and there have been new produced in the process of solving the conflict of the old, a lot of or environmental changes as the situation the emergence of new contradictions." At the same time, China is in a complex and volatile international environment, facing all kinds of severe challenges at home and abroad, and shouldering unprecedented tasks. The more under such circumstances, the more we must strengthen the centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee.
To ensure the centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee, we must first rely on correct theories, lines, principles and policies, and second rely on strict discipline. Strict discipline is our party's fine tradition and unique advantage. Of all disciplines, political discipline and political discipline come first. History has proved that serious violations of political discipline and rules have greatly harmed the party. In our party's history, there have been several serious breaches of the party's political discipline and separatist activities, which have caused great losses to the party.
According to the party's political discipline and rules, no party member, regardless of his position or seniority, must be allowed to oppose the leadership of the communist party of China, the major policies of the opposition party, or even form cliques, engage in sectarianism and mountaineering, and undermine the party's centralism and unity.
It goes without saying that what we are talking about is centralized unity on the basis of extensive and sufficient democracy and on the basis of reflecting the will of the overwhelming majority of the people. Unity and unity are the life and strength of the party. As long as the Chinese communist party is united, centralized and unified and follows a correct line, our country is stable and no one can push it down. Our country is moving forward, and no one can stop it. In contemporary China, no other political force can replace the leadership of the Chinese communist party. Without the leadership of the communist party of China, the country would be divided and retreat, and the Chinese dream of the great renewal of the Chinese nation would come to naught.
The communist party of China is a party full of originality and the courage to open up new prospects
Over the past 95 years, the CPC has led the Chinese people from victory to victory.
How to continue the revolution after the failure of the great revolution in 1927? Following the path of the cities of the Russian October revolution, which was advocated by some leaders of the time, because there were precedents to follow and they were in the books. Comrade MAO zedong did not. He dared to break out a new way, out of a rural encirclement of the city of the unique Chinese revolution road, the Chinese revolution thus won a great victory.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the communist party of China (CPC) embarked on a new path of socialist revolution. This was different from the Soviet union. As a result, such a profound social revolution did not cause a social shock, and production did not decline but developed, meeting the requirements of the development of productive forces at that time.
After the end of the "cultural revolution", the question of where China should go was posed to the communist party of China. The second generation of the party's central collective leadership with comrade deng xiaoping at its core pooled the will of the people of the whole country, introduced a new policy of reform and opening up, blazed a path of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and ushered in a new situation and era in China's socialist modernization drive. The third generation of the party's central collective leadership with comrade jiang zemin as the core and the party central committee with comrade hu jintao as the general secretary have persevered in reform and innovation to bring China's reform, opening up and socialist modernization into a new period.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the CPC Central Committee with comrade xi jinping as general secretary has, on the basis of the achievements of its predecessors, further advanced the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Comrade xi jinping has put forward a series of new concepts, ideas and strategies for governance. He put forward the great ideal of realizing the Chinese dream of the great renewal of the Chinese nation, which is refreshing. Isn't that what countless people with lofty ideals have pursued since modern China? The "four comprehensives" strategic layout and new development concept put forward by him are new creations and new generalizations of our party's governance in keeping up with The Times, and they have caught the principal contradiction in contemporary China's social development. He pushed forward the major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics in an all-round way, and China's international status and influence reached an unprecedented height. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC), we have seen encouraging new developments in the economy, politics, culture, military affairs, diplomacy and party building.
Over the past 95 years, the Chinese people, under the leadership of the communist party of China (CPC), have opened up new prospects for further development of productive forces, improvement of people's livelihood and social progress. We did not create this new situation out of thin air, but by combining the basic principles of marxism with the realities of China and the characteristics of The Times, summarizing the positive and negative experiences at home and abroad, and making the right strategic choice through careful thinking with our own wisdom and courage.
The communist party of China is a party capable of self-purification and self-improvement
A prominent advantage of the CPC is that it has the ability, courage and means to oppose and correct all negative phenomena in the party that are divorced from the people and corrode the party's health. This is one of the fundamental reasons why our party has been able to maintain its vitality and strength. There are many political parties in the world, including some of the great and old ones, which are in their heyday. They are beaten not by others, but by themselves, and the chief cause of their failure is themselves. This is a question worth pondering.
The yan 'an rectification movement in the 1940s was a great initiative of the CPC to purify itself and strengthen its own construction. The yenan rectification movement focused on opposing subjectivism, sectarianism, and stereotypism, which were harmful to the party and the revolution. It raised the level of marxist thought in the whole party, maintained the party's ideological and political consensus, and laid an ideological foundation for winning victory in the Chinese revolution. At that time, comrade MAO zedong presided over the printing and publication of guo moruo's book jiasheng three hundred years of sacrifice, asking comrades to take warning, not to make the mistake of pride in victory. It has become a good tradition for the party to strengthen its own development to carry out criticism and self-criticism through rectification, resolve ideological contradictions within the party, support and dispel evil forces and consolidate the foundation of the party. On the eve of the victory of the democratic revolution, when the communist party of China was about to take power in the whole country, comrade MAO zedong issued a warning that he would never be li zicheng, insisting on "two must do" and warning against "sugarcoated bombs". Not long after the founding of new China, the party central committee found corruption within the party, immediately launched the "three counter measures", saved many cadres, and maintained the party and government clean non-corrupt image.
More than 30 years of reform and opening-up, with comrade deng xiaoping as the core of the party's second generation of central collective leadership, with comrade jiang zemin as the core of the party's third generation of central collective leadership, with comrade hu jintao as general secretary of the CPC central committee has the style of the cultivation of clean government and combat corruption as an important task to grasp, a clear-cut stand, forceful measures, the effect is obvious.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the CPC Central Committee with comrade xi jinping as the general secretary has made an overall judgment on the situation of the party's conduct, clean government and anti-corruption campaign, saying that "the situation of the anti-corruption campaign is still severe and complex" and that "if the corruption problem is allowed to get worse, the party and the country will eventually perish." The party central committee has formulated and taken the lead in implementing eight regulations to focus on solving the "four winds" problem, starting with improving work style. The reversal of the "four winds" led to a gradual and remarkable improvement in the general mood of the whole society and won the hearts of the party and the people. The central government has been cracking down on corruption with unprecedented intensity, insisting on hitting both "tigers" and "flies". Comrade xi jinping delivered a series of important speeches, expressing the determination and will of the CPC Central Committee to fight corruption and the "four winds" and put them into practice. Comrade xi jinping has particularly stressed the need to address corruption in an institutional way. He said, "we will continue to put power, management, and personnel in the hands of institutions. We will promptly put in place effective mechanisms that do not wish to, cannot, or dare to corrupt. In just over three years since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC), our party has made remarkable achievements in combating corruption and upholding integrity, demonstrating the CPC's ability and determination to purify and improve itself.
No party is as blameless as a man. The Chinese communist party has made mistakes, even serious ones. These mistakes were corrected by the CPC itself. The communist party of China takes its mistakes very seriously and makes serious self-criticism, as evidenced by the two historical resolutions. Making mistakes is of course a bad thing, but it is from mistakes that our party has learned lessons, deepened its understanding of the laws governing revolution, construction and reform, formed new theoretical viewpoints, advanced the localization of marxism in China, and improved its leadership.
In the 1940s, the central committee of the communist party of China issued a declaration to commemorate the sixth anniversary of the war of resistance against Japanese aggression. It was pointed out that "twenty-two years of historical practice has proved that the direction of our party's struggle is the completely correct direction to bring the Chinese nation back to life, and we will continue to stick to it in the future historical practice until we are completely victorious." The historical task of bringing the Chinese nation back to life has been successfully accomplished under the leadership of the communist party of China, marked by the victory of the Chinese democratic revolution, the founding of the People's Republic of China and the rise of the Chinese people. We are convinced that under the leadership of the communist party of China, we will achieve complete victory in the historic cause of the great renewal of the Chinese nation.
