How to strengthen and improve Party building under the new situation?

The key to China's success lies in the Party. The decision of the Fourth Plenary Session of the Seventeenth Central Committee, in the spirit of seeking truth from facts and bravely facing reality, put forward the great project of promoting party building with the spirit of reform and innovation and made major strategic arrangements. Seriously studying and deeply understanding the spirit of the Decision is of great and far-reaching significance for thoroughly implementing Scientific Outlook on Development, effectively coping with the impact of the international financial crisis, maintaining steady and rapid economic development, realizing the all-round construction of a well-off society and creating a new situation in Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

First, the urgency of further strengthening and improving party building under the new situation. At present, China's economic construction, political construction, cultural construction, social construction and ecological civilization construction have been comprehensively promoted, and industrialization, informationization, urbanization, marketization and internationalization have developed in depth. It is in an important period of strategic opportunities for further development and is heading for the future at a new historical starting point. On the whole, the Party's leadership and ruling level, the Party's construction and the quality of the party member team are in line with the historical mission shouldered by the Party. However, there are also many problems in the party that do not meet the requirements of the new situation and new tasks and do not conform to the nature and purpose of the party. For example, some leading cadres and leading bodies have low ideological and theoretical levels and poor ability to govern according to law and solve complex contradictions; Some party member cadres are not enterprising and irresponsible, and their work is exaggerated and their work style is not solid; Divorced from the masses, divorced from reality, inconsistent with words and deeds, practicing fraud; Problems such as extravagant work and extravagant enjoyment are more prominent; Some grassroots party organizations are weak and lax, and some party member cannot play a vanguard and exemplary role; The image of corruption is more serious. These problems seriously weaken the party's creativity, cohesion and combat effectiveness, seriously damage the flesh-and-blood ties between the party and the people and the party's image, and seriously affect the consolidation of the party's ruling position and the realization of its ruling mission. We must arouse the great attention and vigilance of the whole Party and solve it in time, so as to ensure that the Party is always in the forefront of the times in the historical process of profound changes in the world situation, always the backbone of the people of the whole country in the historical process of coping with various risks and tests at home and abroad, and always the strong leadership core in the historical process of developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

Second, how to further strengthen and improve Party building under the new situation. 1. Build the Party into a Marxist learning party and improve the ideological and political level of the whole Party. The world is changing, the situation is developing, and the practice in Socialism with Chinese characteristics is deepening. Constantly learning and being good at learning, and striving to master and apply all scientific new ideas, new knowledge and new experiences are the decisive factors for the Party to keep ahead of the times and lead the development and progress of China. Therefore, we must take building a Marxist learning-oriented political party as a major and urgent strategic task in accordance with the requirements of arming ourselves with scientific theories, having a world perspective, being good at grasping laws and being full of innovative spirit. 2. Adhere to and improve the democratic centralism of the whole people and actively develop inner-party democracy. Inner-party democracy is the life of the party, and centralization and unity are the guarantee of the party's strength. We must adhere to the combination of centralism on the basis of democracy and democracy under the guidance of centralism, take the protection of democratic rights in party member as the basis, and strengthen the construction of grass-roots democracy within the party as the basis, earnestly carry forward inner-party democracy, widely gather the wishes and opinions of the whole party, give full play to the enthusiasm, initiative and creativity of party organizations at all levels and the vast number of party member, and resolutely safeguard the centralization and unity of the party. Insist on promoting people's democracy with inner-party democracy, and ensure the great unity of the people of all ethnic groups in the country with the strong unity of the party. 3. Deepen the reform of the cadre and personnel system and build a contingent of high-quality cadres who are good at promoting scientific development and promoting social harmony. After the political line is determined, cadres are the decisive factor. How to mobilize the enthusiasm of cadres and cultivate high-quality cadres, the plenary session proposed to adhere to democracy, openness, competition and merit, improve the credibility of selecting and employing people, form a dynamic mechanism for selecting and employing people, and promote outstanding talents to stand out. We must adhere to the standards of having both ability and political integrity and putting morality first, so that the selected cadre organizations can rest assured and the people are satisfied. 4. Do a good job in grassroots work and consolidate the organizational foundation of the party's governance. The Party's grass-roots organizations are the basis of all the Party's work and combat effectiveness, and are the fighting bastions for implementing the Party's line, principles, policies and tasks. We should persist in focusing on the center, serving the overall situation, broadening the fields and strengthening the functions, further consolidate and strengthen the Party's grass-roots organizations, strive to expand the coverage and enhance the vitality, so that the Party's grass-roots organizations can better play their roles in promoting development, serving the masses, rallying people's hearts and promoting harmony, and make party member keep in mind its purpose and care for the masses. We should promote the innovation of grass-roots party organizations, enhance the vitality of party member team, build a team of high-quality leaders of grass-roots party organizations, and build a new pattern of grass-roots party building in urban and rural areas as a whole. 5. Carry forward the Party's fine style of work and maintain the flesh-and-blood ties between the Party and the people. The party style of the ruling party is related to the image of the party and the success or failure of the cause of the party and the people. We should vigorously carry forward the style of integrating theory with practice, keeping close contact with the masses, criticizing and self-criticizing in the whole party, always be modest and prudent, work hard, pay attention to ideological education, improve the system, concentrate on rectification, and be serious in discipline, make great efforts to solve outstanding problems, promote political style and bring people's feelings with excellent party style, and form a powerful force to unite the party's hearts and people's hearts. 6. Accelerate the construction of a system for punishing and preventing corruption and carry out the anti-corruption struggle in depth. Resolutely opposing corruption is a major political task that the party must always grasp. We should fully understand the protracted nature, complexity and arduousness of the anti-corruption struggle, put anti-corruption construction in a more prominent position, adhere to the policy of treating both the symptoms and root causes, comprehensively managing, punishing and preventing simultaneously, and paying attention to prevention, strictly implement the responsibility system for building a clean and honest party style, resolutely punish corruption, and at the same time intensify education, supervision, reform and system innovation to prevent corruption more effectively and continuously achieve new results in the anti-corruption struggle.
