Ideological construction is the fundamental construction of the Party
2024-05-10
The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasizes that "ideological construction is the fundamental construction of the Party.". This important statement profoundly reveals the fundamental position of ideological construction in the new great project of party building. Ideological construction is the fundamental construction of the Party, which is a scientific judgment made by our Party to deeply grasp the basic laws of Party construction. It is of great significance for building and strengthening our Party in the new era.
Ideological construction is the fundamental construction of the Party, and the "foundation" here reveals the functional positioning of ideological construction in Party building. The foundation is the foundation of everything. As the fundamental construction of the Party, ideological construction is the first step of Party building and plays a role in consolidating the foundation and strengthening the foundation for the new great project of Party building. Thought has a leading role, and the Party will formulate certain lines, principles, and policies based on what kind of ideological theory is used as guidance; Armed with what kind of ideological theory, party members will take what kind of actions. Comrade Deng Xiaoping once pointed out deeply, "Our Communist Party has one principle: to do our work well, we must first solve problems ideologically.". It can be said that if the foundation of ideological construction is not firmly established, other aspects of the Party's construction cannot be consolidated, and the Party's cause cannot develop smoothly.
What should ideological construction focus on? The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasizes that "strengthening ideals and beliefs should be the primary task of the Party's ideological construction.". The general requirement for the construction of the Party in the new era is clearly stated, "based on firm ideals, beliefs, and purposes.". It is obvious that the core of ideological construction is to make the majority of party members and cadres firm in their ideals and beliefs. Revolutionary ideals are above heaven. The lofty ideal of communism and the common ideal of socialism with Chinese characteristics are the spiritual pillar and political soul of the CPC. Many revolutionaries of the older generation of the CPC began to establish their ideals and beliefs by studying the Communist Manifesto, and thus firmly embarked on the revolutionary road. Comrade Mao Zedong said, "The Communist Manifesto is deeply engraved in my heart, establishing my faith in Marxism. Once I accept Marxism as the correct interpretation of history, my faith in Marxism has not wavered." Comrade Liu Shaoqi once recalled, "At that time, I read and reread the Communist Manifesto several times... After a period of careful consideration, I decided to join the Communist Party and also prepared to devote myself to the cause of the Party." Comrade Deng Xiaoping referred to the Communist Manifesto as "my introductory teacher.". It is evident that it is the firm ideals and beliefs that have made progressive elements in China communists, tirelessly striving for the happiness of the Chinese people and the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation without hesitation.
Where do the ideals and beliefs of the CPC people come from? From Marxism. It is Marxism that supports the lofty communist ideals of communists and the common ideal of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Comrade Xi pointed out in his important speech at the conference commemorating the 200th anniversary of Marx's birth that "Marxism has laid the theoretical foundation for the Communists to strengthen their ideals and beliefs." The ideals and beliefs of the CPC are based on the laws of human social development revealed by Marxism. Marx discovered the new world from the old world and, based on a deep critique of capitalist society, looked forward to the future ideal society - communist society. He revealed the general laws of human social development, the special laws of capitalist operation, and the inevitable trend of human society eventually moving towards communism. The ideals and beliefs of the people of the CPC are based on the value pursuit of working for the interests of the people required by Marxism. Ideals and beliefs are the fundamental basis, standards, and standards for Communist Party members to make value judgments and behavioral choices. The Communist Manifesto pointed out that "all movements in the past were for the minority or for the benefit of the minority. The proletarian movement was for the vast majority, an independent movement for the benefit of the vast majority." Marx and Engels positioned their theories as theories about human liberation for the vast majority. The broad and profound Marxism ultimately boils down to one sentence: seeking liberation for humanity. It can be seen that it is precisely because Marxism has always occupied the commanding heights of truth and morality that determines the scientificity and loftiness of the ideals and beliefs of the CPC people. Without Marxist belief and communist ideal, there would be no CPC and no socialism with Chinese characteristics. To strengthen ideological construction, it is necessary to promote the extensive study of Marxism by Party members and cadres.
To deepen the study of Marxism, it is necessary to seriously study and master the basic principles and methodology of dialectical materialism and historical materialism, especially to make the new achievements of Marxism's sinicization the core content of learning. In accordance with the requirements of the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, we should promote the Marxist learning style and promote the normalization and institutionalization of the "two studies and one action" learning and education.
To make firm ideals and beliefs the primary task of the Party's ideological construction, we must educate and guide the entire Party to remember the Party's purpose, raise the spiritual backbone of Communist Party members, solve the "overall switch" problem of worldview, outlook on life, and values, and consciously become steadfast believers and faithful practitioners of the lofty ideals of communism and the common ideal of socialism with Chinese characteristics. This is a requirement of standing tall and upright. The so-called "zenith" indicates the lofty ideals and beliefs of Communist Party members; The so-called "standing on the ground" indicates that the ideals and beliefs of Communist Party members are down-to-earth, concrete, and need to be practiced in daily work and life. The old man said, what is the Communist Party? The Communist Party is someone who has their own quilt and also wants to cut half of it for the common people. This example demonstrates that the ideals, beliefs, and fundamental purposes of Communist Party members are not vague or superficial, but concrete and tangible. Engels emphasized that "communism is not a doctrine, but a movement. It is not based on principles, but on facts." Comrade Mao Zedong believed that "the party spirit of philosophy contains the unity of theory and practice." There is faith in the heart, strength under the feet, and strength under the feet is a manifestation of faith in the heart. In the past 97 years, the CPC has walked all the way through the thorns and opened up a road of national rejuvenation. Communists use the strength under their feet to embody their faith in their hearts. Comrade Xi emphasized, "Without lofty ideals, one is not a qualified Communist Party member; talking about lofty ideals without real work is also not a qualified Communist Party member... There is an objective standard for measuring whether a Communist Party member or a leading cadre possesses the lofty ideals of communism. It depends on whether they can adhere to the fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly, whether they can endure hardships first and enjoy them later, whether they can work hard, be honest in their duties, and whether they can work tirelessly for their ideals, struggle, dedicate all their energy, and even their lives. Therefore, strengthening ideological construction not only emphasizes lofty ideals, but also insists on implementing them in detail.".
Over the past 97 years, the CPC has been able to stand up after setbacks and become hardened after suffering. In the final analysis, the CPC has always been steadfast in its ideals and beliefs. In the new era, only by making ideological construction the fundamental construction of the Party, continuously supplementing calcium and strengthening bones, and establishing a solid foundation, can our Party effectively respond to the "four major tests", successfully resolve the "four dangers", build and strengthen our Party, and always become the strong leadership core of the socialist cause with Chinese characteristics.
