Under The New Situation And Political Work Is The Lifeblood Of Our Military A Number Of Issues

Political work is the lifeline of our army (PWIL). Under new circumstances, we must lucubrate the problem of PWIT, strengthen the lifeline conception and bring the political work into full play. It is decided by the new situation and new task. Internationally, the socialist movement is in low tide and the western hostile power is "westernizing" and "separating" us. They are seeking for the chance to disperse "nonparty army", "nonpolitical army" and "army nationalization". So, our army is facing the severe challenge or the international political struggle. Domestically, various kinds of thoughts are contradicting and some backward, corrupt and reactionary cultures cause great erosion to the army men. Our army is endowed with the great historical task of "winning" and "no changing". The disparity between our actual construction level and our historical duty is apparent day by day. We must enhance the perception that political work is the lifeline in order to bear the severe tests and carry out the historical commitment and improve the political work in the complicated international and national environment.To bring the political work into full play in the new situation, we must overcome and prevent the deviation of the ideology. Taking the modernization as the center is prone to lessen the importance the politics and political work, stressing the materialinterests is prone to looking down upon the encouragement of the spirit, and stressing the law and regulation is prone to looking down upon the importance of the education, and the strengthening of the role of the technology and science is prone to looking down upon the importance of the ideology and politics. So, we must dialectically analyze to avoid trap into the wrong perception and lessen the importance of the lifeline.To bring the political work into full play, we must take "winning" and "no change" as the starting point and setting point. We must solve the key problems of armed forces' construction according to the new situations and characteristics. "Winning" and "no change" regulate the historical commitment of the "two provisions" in the new situation. Political work must set the new job standard around "two services". We must transit the "two provisions" into the practice of the political work.The key of the political work in the new situation is to work actively. The basis of active political work is to strengthen the lifeline conception. The key of active political work is to build a high quality political cadre force. The guarantee of active political work is to optimize the mechanism. And the driving force of active political work is our continuous reforms and innovation.
