"Cultural Revolution" New Theory Of Party Leadership

The Cultural Revolution is the tortuous course during the socialist construction which the Communist Party of China has lead people explored and investigated before the reform and opening up. It is the inevitable stage any substance’s development will go through. During the Cultural Revolution, the party’s leadership made an error affecting the overall situation, but also led work in other fields. The struggle against Right deviations changed the resolution about the principal contradiction of socialist society pointed out by the Eighth National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party. The "left" errors then turned into the ultra-Left socialism. Being overanxious for quick results in economic development moved in a wrong direction to a political revolution which one class overthrows another. Methods of leadership and work turns from mass movement to the si da-speaking out freely, airing one’s views fully, writing big-character posters and holding great debates-and the great democracy which is rebel and lawlessness. During the revolution, our Party also accumulated the basis and conditions for reform and opening up. They adhered to the faith of Marxism and socialism, preserving the basic socialist system, and establishing the material substance of social construction.Erroneous methods of leadership and work in Cultural Revolution period has affords us a precious lesson that people must had some grasp of Marxism completely and faithfully, must make a clear understanding of basic national conditions in China, and must adhere to the principle of democratic centralism and the collective leadership. That’s to say, the mistakes of Cultural Revolution must be denied utterly. But the leadership in that period should be treated in the method of "One divides into two". Only in this way, had the consistency of leadership before and after the revolution be aware of and understood; had the intrinsic relationship between the two historical period not be separated; had the leadership and central position of the Party in Building Socialism with Chinese Characteristics be persisted in and defended. Thus, every generation of Chinese nation will make the Chinese dream come true.
