| The self revolution of the CPC is not only natural,but also constant throughout the history of the Party’s construction for a hundred years.Practice shows that the historical achievements of the Chinese people led by the CPC are not achieved by changes in the external social environment,but by the correction of errors and strategic changes of the Party.It is through the Party’s self revolution that the ability to seize opportunities and respond to risks and challenges is improved.The courage to self revolution is the most distinctive character and greatest advantage of the CPC,the key code to solve the long-term governance problem,the major political responsibility to further promote the comprehensive and strict governance of the party,and the major political task to ensure the smooth realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.At the same time,we promoted self revolution with great political courage,which to a large extent solved the outstanding problems of impure ideology,politics,organization and style within the Party,and enhanced the creative vitality of the Party.So,how can our Party maintain the momentum of self revolution?Or how to put it into practice?To solve this problem,we should not only have the cutting edge inward political courage,but also need to explore the law of self revolution from the theoretical level.Therefore,taking the self revolution of the CPC as the research object,systematically combing and summarizing the historical process and basic experience of the party’s self revolution,in order to provide theoretical support and experience for promoting the party’s self revolution,which is the main task of the current party’s theoretical research on self revolution.The self revolution of building a party to save the country during the new democratic revolution.Looking back at the history of the new democratic revolution,the CPC has tenaciously led the Chinese people to achieve revolutionary achievements that are striking both past and present.At this stage,the CPC mainly experienced two setbacks.First,the failure of the Great Revolution caused by the mistakes of Right opportunism led to a sharp reduction in the number of our Party members from 60000 to 10000;Second,the failure of the fifth counter campaign against "encirclement and suppression" under the "Left"dogmatism led to the loss of most of the revolutionary base areas and forced the Red Army to carry out the Long March.It is precisely because of the self revolutionary spirit generated by the two major setbacks that our Party has ushered in two rises.After the failure of the Great Revolution,the CPC corrected the wrong line with tenacious self revolution,and explored the correct revolutionary path through the agrarian revolution after the August 7th Conference.During the Long March,the CPC people were vigilant and conscientiously summarized the lessons.Through the Zunyi Conference,the CPC Central Leading Group with Comrade Mao Zedong as the core was formed,which saved the revolution,saved the Party,and started the historical journey from partial governance to national salvation.From two setbacks to two rallies,the CPC people can turn crises into opportunities,and the ability to self purify and self repair is the key to success.It is precisely because the right revolutionary path and the determination of the core leadership group driven by the self revolution that the CPC and the Chinese nation can usher in the dawn of peace in an era of uncertainty.During the period of socialist revolution and construction,the self revolution of shaping the Party and rejuvenating the country.The victory of the new democratic revolution has brought about a major change in the historical orientation of our party,and the urgent need for socialist revolution and construction has put forward higher requirements for our party.The self revolution in this period was placed in a more prominent position,and its central task also changed:to forge a people’s party that can withstand the double test of victory and governance,so as to consolidate its position.The organizational scale of the CPC,which has changed from local governance to national governance,has been greatly improved.By 1951 alone,the number of party members in China had increased by 2.7 million compared with the beginning of 1949,and the number of grass-roots party organizations reached as many as 250000.However,along with the increase in the number of Party members and organizations,there are risks of impure thinking and style,among which conceit and bureaucratism prevail among veteran cadres;Corruption and violations of the law and discipline occur from time to time among new Party members,seriously damaging the image of our Party,and our Party is facing increasingly severe governance challenges.In this regard,our Party has carried out many rectification campaigns in the spirit of thorough self revolution.From the whole party rectification movement aimed at party members and cadres in the second half of 1950,the three-year rectification and party building movement from 1951 to 1954 and the "three anti"movement,to the rectification movement against the "three major doctrines" from 1957 to 1958,the "four clean-up" movement from 1963 to 1966,and to the rectification and party building movement focusing on ideological rectification and organizational reform from 1969 to 1971.Time and time again,the CPC has been cutting edge inward,integrating the"temporary" and "fundamental" aspects of the rectification movement and the construction of the party members and cadres into the self revolutionary layout,and improving itself with a firm self revolutionary spirit,which has provided a solid guarantee for consolidating its ruling position and maintaining the progressiveness and purity of the party during this period.In the new period of reform,opening up and socialist modernization,we should make a self revolution to revitalize the Party and enrich the country.After the "Cultural Revolution",China was at a critical historical juncture.On the one hand,people urgently want to get rid of the chaotic economic and political mire,but it is difficult to achieve due to the rigidity of the ideological level;On the other hand,the third wave of scientific and technological revolution swept the world,and the gap between China and the world is growing.The question that the CPC must answer at this stage is where China will go.Therefore,how to re-establish the party’s ideological,political and organizational lines,effectively deal with the ruling risks,and forge our party into the core of leading the socialist cause has become the distinctive theme of our party’s self revolution in this period.After the reform and opening up,the ever expanding corruption situation has become an important factor hindering the harmonious development of China’s economy and society.Therefore,vigorously promoting the system anti-corruption and constantly improving the realm of our party’s self revolution has become an important topic at this stage.Self revolution to strengthen the Party and make China strong in the new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics.Since the 18th CPC National Congress,socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era.After the Chinese revolution,construction and reform,the Chinese nation has accumulated the material foundation and spiritual strength to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,which is closer to the goal of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation than at any time in history.Therefore,during this period,our Party’s mission of self revolution reached an unprecedented height.On the one hand,we should constantly surpass ourselves to realize the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation;On the other hand,we should forge a strong political party to realize the great dream.The self revolution of the Party in the new era presents a new era connotation in the logical coupling with the construction of the Party in the new era,which is mainly reflected in:promoting the combination of style building and discipline building,harnessing the "four styles" with the "eight provisions",and eliminating discipline with strict accountability,so as to form a joint force of multi-party supervision with the cage of constantly tightening the system;We continued to fight against corruption under high pressure,attached great importance to inspection and anti-corruption,and promoted "fighting tigers","swatting flies" and "hunting foxes" as a whole,thus achieving an overwhelming victory in the fight against corruption;We will carry out the education of "Three Stricts and Three Realities","Two Studies and One Action","Never Forget Your Original Intent,Keep Your Mission in Mind" and "Party History" to build the foundation of faith and supplement the calcium of spirit;Putting political construction in the first place,we should adhere to the principle of ideological party building and system based party governance.The political ecology within the Party has improved significantly.With the revolutionary forging step by step,the CPC has given the party new words to express its self revolution,created a new realm of our party’s self revolution,injected strong impetus into the Chinese dream of our party leading the Chinese people to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,and provided an important political guarantee for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation to enter the irreversible historical process.The CPC has accumulated rich valuable experience in promoting self revolution in its century long journey of seeking happiness for the people and rejuvenation for the nation.On the basis of clarifying the profound connotation of self revolution,we should adhere to the unity of social revolution and self revolution,and consciously carry out self revolution in the courage to promote social revolution;Adhere to the unity of the Party spirit and the people’s character,and carry out self revolution in resolutely safeguarding the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people;Adhere to the unity of the Party’s leadership and strict governance,and carry out self revolution while ensuring the Party’s leadership;Adhere to the unity of problem orientation and goal orientation,and expand the goal approach of self revolution in solving the outstanding problems of the Party itself;Adhere to the unity of "the key minority" and "the overwhelming majority",and carry out self revolution in fully mobilizing the initiative and creativity of the majority of Party members and cadres;Adhere to the unity of ideological party building and institutional party governance,carry out self revolution in the process of constantly establishing and improving the institutional mechanism and other six aspects,summarize the experience of the party’s self revolution,and reveal the evergreen path of the CPC.Because of the arduous nature of the cause of the Party and the country,the inevitable requirement of consolidating the ruling position,and the solemn responsibility of meeting the people’s aspirations for a better life,the Party’s self revolution is long-term and arduous,and we must carry out the great self revolution to the end. |
