General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that cultural and literary workers should "learn from the people and life modestly, learn from the people's great practice and rich and colorful life", and philosophy and Social Sciences workers should "excavate new materials, discover new problems, put forward new ideas and build new theories from the practice of China's reform and development". These important discourses put forward ardent expectations for propaganda ideological workers, cultural and literary workers, and philosophy and social science workers. In the new era, propaganda and ideological workers, cultural and literary workers, philosophy and social science workers should shoulder the above tasks, advocate a realistic and pragmatic style, improve the ability of investigation and research, keep close contact with the masses, actively participate in the great practice of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and do not bear the heavy trust of the times.
Do a good job of investigation and research
In the process of exploring the right path of Chinese revolution, our party has formed a fine tradition of paying attention to investigation and research. Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out that "investigation and research are extremely important" and "without investigation and research, correct and specific policies cannot be produced". According to Comrade Deng Xiaoping, "only through investigation and research can you know." Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has attached great importance to investigation and research. A series of General Secretary Xi Jinping's strategies, decisions and measures for governing the country and managing the country are all based on in-depth investigation and research, emphasizing the need to "focus on the prominent contradictions and problems facing China's development, conduct in-depth investigation and research", and pointing out that "major leading comrades should take the lead in learning and leading Head research ".
General Secretary Xi Jinping has also repeatedly asked propaganda ideological workers, cultural and literary workers, philosophy and Social Sciences workers to pay attention to investigation and research. At the 2014 Symposium on literary and art work, he pointed out that literary and art workers should pay attention to "drawing nutrition from the great practice and rich and colorful life of the people, continuously accumulating life and art", "creating and producing outstanding works worthy of our great nation and great era"; at the 2016 Symposium on philosophical and social science work, he praised Mao Zedong's experience After the investigation and research, the theory of contradiction and the theory of practice are "famous articles of investigation and research" and "classic works of social science". At the national propaganda and ideological work conference in 2018, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that "we should guide the majority of cultural and literary workers to go deep into their lives and take root in the people", and really undertake the responsibility of "holding the banner, gathering the hearts of the people, cultivating new people, invigorating culture and displaying image" Mission.
Propaganda ideological workers, cultural and literary workers, philosophy and social science workers must improve their understanding of the importance of investigation and research. We should put down our shelves, dive down, go deep into the reality, devote ourselves to the investigation and research, and get the truth and find out the situation. In the process of investigation and research, we should not only be personal and personal, but also be thoughtful and emotional. We should prevent formalism and bureaucracy, and avoid skimming, skimming and incomprehensible investigation.
Close contact with the masses
Close contact with the masses is our party's fine tradition and an important code for our party's continuous development, growth and eternal vitality. Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out that one of the obvious signs that the Communists are different from any other political parties is that they have the closest contact with the most extensive masses of the people. Comrade Deng Xiaoping proposed that Party organizations, Party members and Party cadres "must be united with the masses, and never stand against the masses". They should "listen to the voice of the masses at any time, understand the emotions of the masses, and represent the interests of the masses". The success or failure of all work should be evaluated from the standpoint of the people. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that "close contact with the masses is a remarkable sign that our party is different from any other party." "The greatest political advantage of our party is to keep close contact with the masses, and the greatest danger after the party is in power is to break away from the masses."
Propaganda and ideological work, cultural and literary work, philosophy and social science work are mainly the work of being human beings. We need to understand and be familiar with the people. Comrade Mao Zedong once pointed out that "if you want to become one with the masses, you have to make up your mind and go through long and even painful trials.". General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that "without the people, philosophy and social sciences will not have attraction, appeal, influence and vitality." If the cultural and literary workers "only write about their own joys and sorrows, water storms, and separation from the public and reality", they will have no place for heroes and will not be able to create works worthy of the times.
Propaganda and ideological workers, cultural and literary workers, philosophy and social science workers must go deep into the masses, enter the masses, pay attention to listening to the people's voice anytime and anywhere, and actively respond to the people's expectations. We should think what the people think and what the people are anxious about. We should consciously share the same breath, destiny and heart with the people. We should be happy with the people's joy, worry about the people's worries, and be the people's children. We should learn from the people with a false heart, constantly enhance the thickness, breadth and depth of our feet, and make contributions to ideological work, cultural and literary work, and philosophical and social science work with real achievements.
Actively engaged in practice
Propaganda and ideological work, cultural and literary work, philosophy and social science work are very practical work. Whether it is to build a socialist ideology with strong cohesion and leading force, create excellent works that "spread the values of contemporary China, embody the spirit of Chinese culture, reflect the aesthetic pursuit of Chinese people, and integrate ideological, artistic and ornamental qualities", or construct "fully reflect the characteristics of China in terms of guiding ideology, discipline system, academic system and discourse system" The philosophy and social sciences with Chinese characteristics, such as color, Chinese style and Chinese style, need to publicize the in-depth practice of ideological workers, cultural and literary workers and philosophy and Social Sciences workers, pay attention to the society, be diligent in thinking and practice.
"Hearing is not as good as seeing, seeing is not as good as practicing." Only when we enter into practice, can we perceive practice more deeply and have a definite aim in our work. "What's more important than knowledge is that practice is action." To transform all knowledge into ability, we must practice ourselves. We should adhere to the unity of knowledge and practice, pay attention to learning the truth and understanding the essence in practice, and strengthen the ability of discipline and growth.
Propaganda and ideological workers, cultural and literary workers, philosophy and social science workers must take the initiative to walk out of the "ivory tower" and devote themselves to the great practice of socialism with Chinese characteristics. We should establish the spirit of fearing no hardship and taking on responsibilities, and constantly improve the ability and quality of taking on responsibilities in practice. It is necessary to take the hot practice as a responsibility, a spiritual pursuit and a way of life, consciously focus on practice, pay attention to practice, and constantly discover and create in practice. The more you know, the more you do; the more you do, the more you benefit. Through understanding the most real objective reality, we should constantly improve our ability to observe, analyze and solve problems, enhance our ability to grasp the development law of objective things, and master scientific working methods.
Insist on seeking truth and being practical
Seeking truth and being practical and down-to-earth is our party's consistent fine tradition and style of work. We must advocate a realistic and practical style of work.
Seeking truth and being practical is the core content of the party's ideological line, as well as the important thoughts and working methods of the Communists. Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out that "it is dangerous to decide policy on the basis of 'taken for granted' or unrealistic reports." Comrade Deng Xiaoping has always been opposed to rashly "slapping the head" and making decisions by imagination. When he goes to various places to inspect and investigate, he often knows the truth in person. Comrade Jiang Zemin proposed that leading cadres should "talk less empty talk, do not make superficial remarks, do not engage in ostentation, do not engage in formalism". Comrade Hu Jintao asked the whole party to "vigorously promote the spirit of seeking truth and pragmatism, and greatly promote the style of seeking truth and pragmatism". "Empty talk will lead to the loss of our country, and we will do our best to prosper our country." Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC), stressed more on adhering to the realistic and pragmatic style of work, requiring party members and cadres to "carry forward the spirit of nailing", achieve "one point deployment, nine points implementation", set up the realistic and pragmatic guidance, and strictly enforce the rules of "real and practical work".
Propaganda and ideological workers, cultural and literary workers, and philosophy and Social Sciences workers must adhere to the principle of seeking truth and being pragmatic, proceed from reality, do not seek fame or work in vain. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that "an intellectual, no matter what profession he is engaged in, no matter how high his educational background, title and status, can explore more unknowns, gain more truth and make greater contributions to society only by upholding the spirit of seeking truth and being pragmatic." No matter in research, creation or publicity, we should adhere to the principle of seeking truth from facts and being down-to-earth. We should not make subjective assumptions, imagine from nothing, put on airs and make superficial articles. We should firmly oppose unrealistic academic exaggeration, academic misconduct, academic corruption and other phenomena. We should also oppose such behaviors as patchwork, shoddy manufacturing, making cars behind closed doors and talking about things in a sitting way, not to mention for the sake of achievement Be eager for quick success and instant profit, and practice fraud. We should focus on the overall situation of the work of the party and the state, study the real problems and make the real knowledge, so as to provide a strong ideological guarantee and a strong spiritual force for the smooth promotion of the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.
