This year is the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up. Reform and opening up is a new great social revolution, creating a great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Over the past 40 years, with the great practice of reform and opening up, our Party has been constantly promoting self-revolution and opening up a new and great project of Party building. The 40 years of reform and opening up are a magnificent picture of the great social revolution and the Party's self-revolution complementing each other and advancing in coordination. Deeply grasping the organic unity between the great social revolution and the Party's self-revolution is of great significance for carrying out the great struggle, building the great project, advancing the great cause and realizing the great dream in the new era.
Reform and opening up is a great social revolution, and the Party's strong leadership is the fundamental guarantee for the success of this social revolution.
The historical process of reform and opening up is based on the 1978 the third Plenary Session of the 11th CPC Central Committee of the party. At that time, there were internal and external reasons why our Party made a major historical decision to implement reform and opening up. On the one hand, according to our own situation, the ten-year civil strife of the "Cultural Revolution" caused serious setbacks to the cause of the Party and the state, and there is only one way to die without reform. From the external environment, the new scientific and technological revolution that sprang up in the world in the 1970s pushed the world economy forward at a faster speed. The gap between China's economic strength, scientific and technological strength and the world's advanced level was obviously widened, and China was facing enormous pressure of international competition. We must lead the people to catch up with the trend of the times through reform and opening up. As Comrade Deng Xiaoping pointed out, "we must catch up with the times. This is the goal of reform."
The key to doing well in China lies in the party. The key to the initiation and promotion of the new great social revolution of reform and opening up lies in the Party's determination and will. Reform and opening-up, as a key measure to determine the fate of contemporary China, is not a single or partial reform, but a comprehensive and deep-seated reform, involving all aspects of economic and social development, touching on the deep-seated problems of the state's governance system and capacity, bringing about a huge, revolutionary and historical impact on Chinese society. Sexual changes. Such a great social revolution is unimaginable without the strong leadership of the party. Therefore, at the beginning of the reform and opening up, Comrade Deng Xiaoping put forward four basic principles, one of which is to adhere to the leadership of the Communist Party. Reform and opening up have created the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics. After 40 years of reform and opening up, we have a deeper understanding of the relationship between the leadership of the Communist Party of China and socialism with Chinese characteristics. Comrade Xi Jinping pointed out clearly in the report of the Nineteenth Congress of the Party that the most essential feature of socialism with Chinese characteristics is the leadership of the Communist Party of China, and the greatest advantage of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics is the leadership of the Communist Party of China. History has fully proved that without the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China, the great social revolution of reform and opening up can not be successful.
Forty years have passed. Under the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China, the great social revolution of reform and opening-up has made tremendous changes in our society. It has pushed our economic strength, scientific and technological strength, national defense strength and comprehensive national strength into the forefront of the world, and promoted our international status to achieve unprecedented improvement. The face of the country, the people, the army and the Chinese nation have undergone unprecedented changes. The Chinese nation is standing in the east of the world with a new attitude, ushering in a great leap from prosperity to strength. During this period, not only the domestic situation is complicated, but also the international situation is changing. Under the strong leadership of the Party, the social revolution of reform and opening up has achieved great success, which has not only profoundly changed China, but also profoundly affected the world.
In the process of reform and opening up, the party has been carrying out self revolution and has always been a strong core of leadership.
As a great social revolution, reform and opening up have a tremendous and profound impact on the cause of the party and the state. It has constantly made the party building face new situations and new problems, and constantly put forward higher requirements for the leadership of the party. The course of 40 years of reform and opening up is also the course of our party's continuous self revolution. One of the important experiences of our Party's leading reform and opening-up policy is to combine the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics with the great project of promoting the Party's construction. It not only promotes the great project of the Party's construction closely around the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics, but also through the great project of the Party's construction. Promoting the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics.
Reform and opening-up have made China successfully realize the great historical turning point from a highly centralized planned economy system to a vibrant socialist market economy system, from a closed and semi-closed system to an all-round opening system. The historical orientation and the environment faced by the Party have undergone profound changes. In the process of developing socialist market economy, some places and units are not strict in governing the Party, relaxed in discipline and scattered in organization. In particular, some negative factors and corruption grow and spread in the Party, seriously eroding the ranks of Party members and cadres. The changes in the world, the national conditions and the Party's conditions all put forward urgent requirements for further strengthening and improving the Party's construction, enhancing the Party's cohesion and fighting effectiveness, and improving the Party's leadership and ruling level. Faced with the higher requirements of reform and opening-up for the leadership of the Party, our Party has explored in depth how to further promote the great new project of Party building, put forward many important ideas and made many important deployments. For example, the Fourth Plenary Session of the 14th Central Committee of the CPC deliberated and adopted the Decision of the CPC Central Committee on Several Major Issues Concerning Strengthening the Party's Construction, and proposed to continue to carry out new great projects; the 16th National Congress of the CPC proposed to "comprehensively promote the new great project of the Party's construction" and stressed that the Party must strengthen its own construction with the spirit of reform and innovation; The Eighteenth National Congress of the CPC calls for promoting the new great project of Party building in an all-round way with the spirit of reform and innovation and improving the scientific level of Party building in an all-round way.
Since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee, with Comrade Xi Jinping as its core, has embarked on the challenges faced by the Party's construction, dared to face the major risk tests faced by the Party and the outstanding problems existing in the Party, adhered to the principle of strictly administering the Party in an all-round way, strengthened the leadership of the Party in an all-round way, resolutely changed the loose and soft situation of administering the Party, More forceful and radiant new vitality. In his report to the Nineteenth National Congress of the Party, Comrade Xi Jinping emphasized that Party building should always be at the forefront of the times, wholeheartedly supported by the people, courageous in self-revolution, able to withstand the test of various storms and vigorous Marxist ruling party. This is the goal to be carried out in implementing the general requirements of the party building in the new era.
From the beginning of reform and opening-up, our Party clearly put forward four basic principles, emphasized adherence to the leadership of the Communist Party, and since the Eighteenth Congress of the Party, the Party Central Committee, with Comrade Xi Jinping as its core, has steadfastly promoted the comprehensive and strict administration of the Party. Our Party has always strengthened the Party's self-construction with the spirit of self-revolutionary courage, so that the Party has always become China. The strong core of leadership in the cause of socialism with characteristics also makes it the most distinctive character of our Party to dare to self-revolution and strictly govern the Party.
Persisting in advancing the party's self revolution in advancing the great social revolution
In the new era, China's development faces unprecedented opportunities and unprecedented challenges. Comrade Xi Jinping emphasized that in order to carry out the great social revolution of adhering to and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, our Party must be courageous to carry out self-revolution and build the Party stronger and stronger. This important exposition profoundly clarifies the close relationship between the great social revolution and the Party's self-revolution, and is also a profound summary and rich development of the experience of our Party's collaborative promotion of social revolution and self-revolution in the past 40 years of reform and opening-up.
To coordinate the promotion of social revolution and self-revolution requires the Party's construction to be carried out in close connection with the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Adhering to and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics is the theme of all theories and practices of the party since reform and opening up. Socialism with Chinese characteristics is a great achievement in the past 40 years of reform and opening up. It is extremely difficult to achieve this great achievement and must be cherished. The first heart and mission of the Chinese Communists is to create happiness for the Chinese people and to revive the Chinese nation. How can we bring happiness to the Chinese people and revive the Chinese nation? It is to uphold and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics. This is the fundamental direction for the development and progress of contemporary China. This also determines that the Party's construction must be carried out in close connection with the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics, to ensure that the Party is always at the forefront of the times in the historical process of profound changes in the world situation, to become the backbone of the people of the whole country in the historical process of dealing with various risks and tests at home and abroad, and to uphold and develop China. Sexual socialism has always been the core of strong leadership in the historical process, providing political guarantee for the development of socialism with Chinese characteristics.
The courage to carry out self-revolution is not to weaken the leadership of the Party, but to build and strengthen our Party so as to better adhere to and strengthen the overall leadership of the Party. Comrade Xi Jinping stressed that the most essential feature of socialism with Chinese characteristics is the leadership of the Communist Party of China, and the greatest advantage of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics is the leadership of the Communist Party of China. This important judgment deeply reflects the further deepening of the Party Central Committee's understanding of the ruling law of the Communist Party, the law of socialist construction and the law of human social development, with Comrade Xi Jinping as its core. It is of great and far-reaching significance to uphold and strengthen the Party's overall leadership. We should thoroughly implement the basic strategy of adhering to the Party's leadership over all work in the new era of adhering to and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics, and put the Party's leadership into all work, throughout all fields of economic society and in every link of reform and development.
Adhering to and strengthening the Party's overall leadership requires us to insist that the Party should be in charge of the Party and strictly administer the Party in an all-round way so as to solve outstanding contradictions and problems existing in the Party. If we want to effectively deal with the "Four Tests" and overcome the "Four Dangers", and constantly improve the Party's ability of self-purification, self-improvement, self-innovation and self-improvement, we must adhere to the problem-oriented, maintain strategic strength and promote the overall development from strict governance of the Party to in-depth. In particular, we need to emphasize the importance of promoting the new great project of Party building. "Consistency" refers to the use of a fundamental reason through the beginning and end of the matter, rather than a tiger's head, snake's tail, start and end. Promoting the new great project of Party building should be consistent, which is not only a summary of our Party's historical experience, but also an inherent requirement for the coordinated promotion of social revolution and self-revolution in the new era. It has been 97 years since the founding of the Communist Party of China. Although we have made great efforts to strengthen the Party's construction, there are still some outstanding problems in the Party, such as the impurity of ideology, politics, organization and style. The "Four Tests" and "Four Dangers" that our Party is facing are long-term and acute, and the factors affecting the Party's advancement and weakening its purity are also complex. We must advance the new great project of Party building with courage and self revolutionary spirit. Only in this way can we promote the great social revolution led by the Party and the people by the Party's self-revolution, and constantly win the great victory of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.
