one On the way forward, we must strengthen the theoretical arm of the whole party, deeply study and master Marxism Leninism and Mao Zedong thought, deeply study and master the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and firmly establish the world outlook and methodology of dialectical materialism and historical materialism in accordance with the requirements of building a Marxist learning party. (speech at the first plenary session of the 18th CPC Central Committee on November 15, 2012) two First of all, we should seriously study Marxist theory, which is not only our ability to do well in all work, but also the ability to win in work that leading cadres must generally master. Comrade Mao Zedong once put forward that "if our party has 100 to 200 comrades who have learned Marxism Leninism systematically rather than piecemeal, practically rather than empty, our party's combat strength will be greatly improved". This task is still realistically before our party today. Only by learning and understanding Marxism Leninism, Mao Zedong thought, Deng Xiaoping theory, the important thought of "Three Represents" and the scientific outlook on development, especially the Marxist positions, viewpoints and methods that run through it, can we be clear-minded, deeply understand and accurately grasp the ruling law of the Communist Party, the law of socialist construction and the law of human social development, Only in this way can we always strengthen our ideals and beliefs, adhere to the scientific guiding ideology and the correct direction under the complex situation, lead the people to the right path, and constantly push forward socialism with Chinese characteristics. (speech at the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Central Party school and the opening ceremony of the 2013 spring semester on March 1, 2013) three In order to refine the "immortal body of King Kong", we must arm our minds with scientific theories and constantly cultivate our spiritual home. For leading cadres, especially senior cadres, it is necessary to take a systematic grasp of the basic theory of Marxism as their housekeeping skill. Wang Guowei, a famous scholar, discusses that there are three realms of scholarship: first, "last night, the west wind withered the green trees, went up the tall buildings alone, and looked at the end of the world"; The second is "the belt of clothes is getting wider and wider, and I don't regret it at last, so I can eliminate people's haggard for Iraq"; The third is "looking for him in the crowd, suddenly looking back, the man is in the dim light". Leading cadres should also have these three realms in studying theory. First of all, theoretical study should have the lofty pursuit of "looking at the ends of the earth", endure the coolness of "last night's west wind withered green trees" and the loneliness of "going up tall buildings alone", and calm down to study hard; Secondly, in theoretical study, we should work hard, study hard, work hard, and work hard. Even if "the belt is getting wider", we will "never regret" and "people are haggard" will be willing; Thirdly, the value of theoretical learning lies in independent thinking, combination of learning and application, understanding of learning and income from use. In learning and practice, we "look for him thousands of times", and finally "look back suddenly" to understand the true meaning "in the" dim lights ". (speech at the national propaganda and Ideological Work Conference on August 19, 2013) four Theoretical cultivation is the core of cadres' comprehensive quality, theoretical maturity is the basis of political maturity, and political firmness comes from theoretical soberness. In a sense, mastering the depth of Marxist theory determines the degree of political sensitivity, the breadth of thinking vision and the height of ideological realm. Therefore, I ask the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee to study collectively and strengthen the study of the basic principles of Marxism. It has arranged to study the contents of historical materialism, dialectical materialism and Marxist political economy, which will be arranged in the future. We should maintain a strong theoretical interest, consciously strengthen the study of basic Marxist theory, calm down to study the original works of Marx, Engels, Lenin and Chairman Mao, study the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and study the innovative achievements of the party's theory, line and policies since the 18th CPC National Congress, so as to continuously gain and improve. (speech at the "three stricts and three facts" special democratic life meeting of the Political Bureau of the 18th CPC Central Committee on December 28 and 29, 2015) five Time is the mother of thought and practice is the source of theory. There is no end to the development of practice, and there is no end to our understanding of truth and theoretical innovation. Today, the changes of the times and the breadth and depth of China's development are far beyond the imagination of Marxist classic writers at that time. At the same time, China's socialism has only been practiced for decades and is still in the primary stage. The more the cause develops, the more new situations and new problems will arise, and the more we need to explore boldly in practice and make continuous breakthroughs in theory. If it is not thorough in theory, it is difficult to convince people. We should examine the realistic basis and practical needs of Marxism in contemporary development from a broader perspective, adhere to problem orientation, focus on what we are doing, listen to the voice of the times, further promote the combination of Marxism with the specific reality of contemporary China's development, and constantly open up a new realm of Marxism development in the 21st century, Let contemporary Chinese Marxism radiate a more brilliant light of truth. (speech at the general meeting celebrating the 95th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China on July 1, 2016) six The times are changing and society is developing, but the basic principle of Marxism is still a scientific truth. Although our era has undergone great and profound changes compared with that of Marx, from the perspective of 500 years of world socialism, we are still in the historical era specified by Marxism. This is the scientific basis for our firm confidence in Marxism and our belief in socialism. Marxism is the root of the towering tree for the continuous development of the cause of our party and people and the source of the long river for our party and people to forge ahead. If we deviate from or abandon Marxism, our party will lose its soul and direction. On the fundamental issue of adhering to the guidance of Marxism, we must be firm and unswerving at any time and under any circumstances. (speech at the 43rd collective study of the 18th Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee on September 29, 2017) seven Looking back on the course of the party's struggle, we can find that a very important reason why our party can continue to go through difficulties and create new brilliance is that our party always attaches importance to building the party through thought and strengthening the party through theory, adheres to arming the minds of the majority of Party members and cadres with scientific theory, and makes the whole party maintain unified thought, firm will and strong combat effectiveness. In order to win our advantages, take the initiative and win the future, and overcome all kinds of obstacles and stumbling blocks on the way forward, we must take Marxism as our own skill, think and grasp a series of major problems facing future development from a broader and longer-term perspective, and constantly improve the ability of the whole party to analyze and solve practical problems by using Marxism, Constantly improve our ability to use scientific theories to guide us to deal with major challenges, resist major risks, overcome major resistance and solve major contradictions. We should unremittingly arm our minds with the latest achievements in the Sinicization of Marxism, gather our hearts and souls, strengthen the Marxist belief and communist ideal of the whole party, and constantly improve the theoretical thinking ability and ideological and political level of the whole party, especially the leading cadres. (speech at the 43rd collective study of the 18th Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee on September 29, 2017) eight Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the changes in the situation at home and abroad and the development of various undertakings in China have put forward a major issue of the times. This is that we must systematically answer what kind of socialism with Chinese characteristics to adhere to and develop in the new era and how to adhere to and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics, including the general goal of adhering to and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era General tasks, overall layout, strategic layout and development direction, development mode, development momentum, strategic steps, external conditions, political guarantee and other basic issues, and in accordance with the new practice, we should make a comprehensive analysis of the economy, politics, the rule of law, science and technology, culture, education, people's livelihood, nationality, religion, society, ecological civilization, national security, national defense and the army, "one country, two systems" and the reunification of the motherland Make theoretical analysis and policy guidance on the United Front, diplomacy and Party building, so as to better adhere to and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics. Focusing on this major issue of the times, our party adheres to the guidance of Marxism Leninism, Mao Zedong thought, Deng Xiaoping theory, the important thought of Three Represents and the scientific outlook on development, adheres to emancipating the mind, seeking truth from facts, keeping pace with the times, seeking truth and pragmatism, adheres to dialectical materialism and historical materialism, and closely combines the conditions and practical requirements of the new era, Deepen the understanding of the ruling law of the Communist Party, the law of socialist construction and the law of human social development from a new perspective, carry out arduous theoretical exploration, obtain major theoretical innovation achievements, and form the thought of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era. (report at the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China on October 18, 2017) nine The thought of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era is the inheritance and development of Marxism Leninism, Mao Zedong thought, Deng Xiaoping theory, the important thought of Three Represents and the scientific outlook on development. It is the latest achievement in the Sinicization of Marxism, the crystallization of the practical experience and collective wisdom of the party and the people, and an important part of the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics, It is the action guide for the whole Party and the people of the whole country to strive for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. It must be adhered to and developed for a long time. (report at the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China on October 18, 2017) ten Comprehensively implement the thought and basic strategy of socialism with Chinese characteristics for the new era, and constantly improve the Marxist theoretical level of the whole party. The thought and basic strategy of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era did not fall from the sky or come out of subjective imagination. It was the result of the arduous theoretical exploration carried out by the whole Party and the people of all ethnic groups since the 18th CPC National Congress and on the basis of our party's promotion of theoretical and practical innovation since the founding of new China, especially since reform and opening up, It is the wisdom crystallization of the innovation and creation of the whole Party and the people of all ethnic groups. The tree of life is evergreen. The source of a theory can only be rich and vivid real life, and the driving force can only be the practical requirements of solving social contradictions and problems. On the journey of the new era, all comrades in the party must carry forward the study style of integrating theory with practice, closely link with the historic changes in the cause of the party and the state, closely link with the new reality of socialism with Chinese characteristics entering the new era, closely link with the major changes in China's main social contradictions, and closely link with the objectives and tasks of the "two centenaries", Consciously use theory to guide practice, make all aspects of work more in line with the requirements of objective and scientific laws, constantly improve the ability to adhere to and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and transform the party's scientific theory into a powerful force to unite as one to promote the realization of the objectives of the "two centenaries" and the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. (speech at the first plenary session of the 19th CPC Central Committee on October 25, 2017) eleven 170 years have passed since the Communist Manifesto was published, and earth shaking changes have taken place in human society, but the general principles expounded by Marxism are still completely correct. We should adhere to and apply the world outlook and methodology of dialectical materialism and historical materialism, adhere to and apply Marxist positions, viewpoints and methods, and adhere to and apply Marxist views on the world
