The Key to Style-Building Is to Turn It into a Custom

Style-building is an eternal subject of Party building and a long-term task of comprehensive and strict governance of the Party. Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core has deeply advanced comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, continuously deepened the Party’s style-building with a thorough spirit of self-revolution, and provided a profound theoretical foundation and valuable practical experience for building a long-governing, vigorous Marxist political party. Style problems are stubborn and recurrent; therefore, deepening style-building must strengthen resolve and maintain tenacity until it becomes conscious and forms a habit.

作风建设是党的建设的永恒课题，是全面从严治党的长期任务。党的十八大以来，以习近平同志为核心的党中央深入推进全面从严治党，以彻底的自我革命精神将党的作风建设持续引向深入，为建设长期执政、朝气蓬勃的马克思主义政党提供了深厚理论根基与宝贵实践经验。作风问题具有顽固性、反复性，因此，深化作风建设必须增强定力、保持韧劲，直至化为自觉、形成习惯。

When discussing style-building, General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly raised the key phrase “turn it into a custom” (化风成俗), stressing that formulating and implementing the central Party leadership’s Eight-Point Regulations “must be persistently pursued over the long term until it truly turns into a custom,” and demanding that we “continue to work on constancy and length, strictness and substance, depth and detail, manage until it becomes a habit, achieve results, and turn it into a custom.” In March 2025, during his inspection tours in Guizhou and Yunnan, General Secretary Xi further pointed out: “In these years, the Eight-Point Regulations have indeed driven fundamental changes; the atmosphere has been renewed, and most of the deeply entrenched phenomena of the past are gone. At the same time, we must see that in some places there has been loosening, in some areas there are still blind spots and dead corners, and some unhealthy tendencies have rebounded and resurged. Drive the nail in, drive it a few more times, persist over the long term, and turn it into a custom.” This series of important expositions by General Secretary Xi embodies the Party’s profound thinking on the inherent laws of style-building and a scientific summary of the historical experience of governing the Party, clarifying the goals, direction, and practical requirements for systematically advancing the Party’s style-building in the New Era.

习近平总书记在谈到作风建设时，反复提到“化风成俗”这一关键词，强调制定实施中央八项规定“必须常抓不懈、久久为功，直至真正化风成俗”，要求“继续在常和长、严和实、深和细上下功夫，管出习惯、抓出成效，化风成俗”。2025年3月，习近平总书记在贵州和云南考察期间进一步指出：“这些年，八项规定确实是推动了根本性的变化，风气为之一新，过去积重难返的现象大部分没有了。同时要看到，有一些地方发生了松动，有一些方面还存在盲区死角，一些不良风气出现了反弹回潮。钉钉子嘛，再钉几下，久久为功，化风为俗。”习近平总书记的这一系列重要论述，蕴含了我们党对作风建设内在规律的深邃思考和对管党治党历史经验的科学总结，明确了新时代系统推进党的作风建设的目标方向和实践要求。

Currently, the entire Party is carrying out an education campaign to thoroughly implement the spirit of the central Party leadership’s Eight-Point Regulations. This is an important measure to consolidate and deepen the achievements of the thematic education and Party discipline education campaigns, to advance comprehensive and strict governance of the Party in depth, and also an important way to consolidate and expand the achievements of style-building. On the new journey of the New Era, only by deepening the Party’s style-building with the initiative and consciousness to turn it into a custom can we continuously enhance the effectiveness of style-building and provide a strong guarantee with fine conduct for further deepening reform comprehensively and advancing Chinese-path modernization.

当前，全党正在开展深入贯彻中央八项规定精神学习教育。这是巩固深化主题教育和党纪学习教育成果、纵深推进全面从严治党的重要举措，也是巩固拓展作风建设成效的重要途径。新时代新征程上，只有以化风成俗的主动和自觉将党的作风建设引向深入，方能持续提升作风建设成效，以优良作风为进一步全面深化改革、推进中国式现代化提供坚强保障。

Turning it into a custom manifests the high consciousness of a Marxist party in unremittingly strengthening style-building

化风成俗彰显了马克思主义政党坚持不懈加强作风建设的高度自觉

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: “Style-building is always ongoing, never complete,” and “Style-building is always on the road, never has a rest period; it must be grasped constantly, meticulously, and over the long term, with sustained effort and persistent work.” These important expositions profoundly reflect an overall cognition and systematic grasp of the laws of the Party’s style-building from a historical, developmental, and dialectical perspective, and manifest the high consciousness of our Party as a Marxist party in unremittingly strengthening style-building.

习近平总书记指出：“抓作风建设只有进行时，没有完成时”“作风建设永远在路上，永远没有休止符，必须抓常、抓细、抓长，持续努力、久久为功”。这些重要论述，深刻体现了在历史的、发展的、辩证的视野下对党的作风建设规律的整体认知和系统把握，彰显了我们党作为马克思主义政党坚持不懈加强作风建设的高度自觉。

The *Book of Han* says: “What is transformed from above becomes the wind; what is transformed below becomes the custom.” In the context of the Party’s style-building, the so-called “wind” (风) refers to the phased governance results formed by the Party through top-down education, guidance, and restraint, embodied in the visible achievements of correcting unhealthy tendencies and improving conduct; the so-called “custom” (俗) refers to the enduring good ecology formed after the long-term sedimentation of fine conduct, embodied in the behavioral norms practiced daily by all Party members and cadres and the values they consciously uphold. The concept of turning it into a custom profoundly reveals that the Party’s style-building is not a matter of one-time or one-thing achievement; only by persevering and persisting over the long term can improving conduct become a habit, a consciousness, and a responsibility throughout the Party, achieving a deep leap from “treating existing illness” to “preventing future illness,” from “immediate correction” to “long-term establishment,” and from “breaking old habits” to “establishing new practices.”

《汉书》有言：“上之所化为风，下之所化为俗。”在党的作风建设语境中，所谓“风”，是指我们党通过自上而下的教育、引导和约束而形成的阶段性治理成果，体现为纠治不良风气、改进作风的显性成效；所谓“俗”，则是指优良作风经过长期积淀后形成的持久性良好生态，体现为全体党员干部日常践行的行为准则和自觉奉行的价值理念。化风成俗的理念，深刻揭示了党的作风建设不是一时一事之功，只有锲而不舍、久久为功，才能使改进作风在全党成为一种习惯、一种自觉、一种责任，实现从“治已病”到“防未病”、从“当下改”到“长久立”、从“破旧习”到“树新风”的深层跃迁。

As a Marxist ruling party, our Party’s promotion of style-building by turning it into a custom manifests the high consciousness of continuously deepening style-building with a thorough spirit of self-revolution. Marxist dialectical materialism insists on understanding the world from the development and change of things, emphasizing that the development of things is a dynamic process of the dialectical unity of quantitative and qualitative change. The process of promoting turning it into a custom through deepening the Party’s style-building is precisely a dialectical movement in which the accumulation of quantitative change triggers a leap in qualitative change. Any slack or negligence in this process may lead to the rebound and resurgence of unhealthy tendencies, eroding the Party’s body. Only by promoting style-building to extend continuously in the temporal dimension and broaden coverage in the spatial dimension can clean and upright conduct be continuously promoted, unhealthy conduct gradually disappear, and then prompt all Party members to integrate the tempering of fine conduct into daily life and turn it into a habit, forming a lasting force for improving conduct and achieving a qualitative leap in the Party’s style-building. But this qualitative change is not an end; rather, it pushes style-building into a new stage, achieving new results in that new stage. This spiraling upward process constitutes the internal driving force for the continuous deepening of the Party’s style-building.

作为马克思主义执政党，我们党推进作风建设坚持化风成俗，彰显了以彻底的自我革命精神将作风建设不断引向深入的高度自觉。马克思主义唯物辩证法坚持从事物的发展变化中认识世界，强调事物的发展是量变与质变辩证统一的动态过程。通过深化党的作风建设推动化风成俗的过程，正是由量变积累引发质变飞跃的辩证运动。这一过程中的任何松懈或疏忽都可能导致不正之风反弹回潮，侵蚀党的肌体。只有推动作风建设在时间维度上持续延伸、在空间维度上拓宽覆盖，才能使清风正气持续得到弘扬，不良作风逐渐消亡，进而促使全体党员将砥砺过硬作风融入日常、化为习惯，形成改进作风的持久力量，实现党的作风建设质的跃升。但这种质变并非终点，而是推动作风建设进入一个新的阶段，在新的阶段上取得新成效。这一螺旋上升的过程，构成党的作风建设持续深化的内在动力。

Turning it into a custom embodies the inheritance and promotion of the Party’s fine tradition of style-building in the New Era

化风成俗体现了党的作风建设优良传统在新时代的传承弘扬

Persistently strengthening style-building, promoting all Party members and cadres to internalize the requirements of style-building in their hearts and externalize them in their actions, until it turns into a custom, constitutes an important dimension of our Party’s more than one hundred years of struggle.

持之以恒加强作风建设，推动全体党员干部将作风建设要求内化于心、外化于行，直至化风成俗，构成我们党百余年奋斗历程的重要向度。

Since its founding, our Party has attached great importance to style-building. During the Agrarian Revolutionary War period, the Party proposed and practiced the “Three Main Rules of Discipline and the Eight Points for Attention.” During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Party creatively used the form of rectification campaigns to unequivocally oppose subjectivism, sectarianism, and stereotyped Party writing, vigorously strengthening the Party’s style-building. In Yan’an, the Party formed and developed fine revolutionary traditions and conduct, forming the Yan’an Spirit. The Party gradually cultivated a series of glorious traditions and fine conduct in the practice of revolutionary struggle. In 1945, Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out at the Seventh National Congress of the CPC: “The Chinese Communist Party, armed with the theoretical thought of Marxism-Leninism, has produced a new work style among the Chinese people, mainly the style of integrating theory with practice, the style of maintaining close ties with the masses, and the style of self-criticism.” These “Three Styles of Conduct” became important content of the Party’s style-building. On the eve of the founding of New China, Comrade Mao Zedong, in view of the tests the Party might face after governing the whole country, emphasized that “comrades must be taught to remain modest, prudent, and free from arrogance and rashness in their style of work; comrades must be taught to preserve the style of plain living and hard struggle.”

我们党自成立之日起，就高度重视作风建设。土地革命战争时期，党提出并践行了“三大纪律八项注意”。抗日战争时期，党创造性地以整风的形式，旗帜鲜明地反对主观主义、宗派主义、党八股，大力加强党的作风建设。在延安，党形成和发扬了优良革命传统和作风，形成了延安精神。党在革命斗争实践中逐步培育了一系列光荣传统和优良作风。1945年，毛泽东同志在党的七大上指出：“以马克思列宁主义的理论思想武装起来的中国共产党，在中国人民中产生了新的工作作风，这主要的就是理论和实践相结合的作风，和人民群众紧密地联系在一起的作风以及自我批评的作风。”这“三大作风”成为党的作风建设的重要内容。新中国成立前夕，毛泽东同志针对党在全国执政后可能面临的考验，强调“务必使同志们继续地保持谦虚、谨慎、不骄、不躁的作风，务必使同志们继续地保持艰苦奋斗的作风”。

After the founding of New China, our Party, based on the new tasks of Party building raised by governing the whole country, successively launched rectification campaigns, resolutely eliminated bureaucratism and other unhealthy tendencies, and strengthened the flesh-and-blood ties between the Party and the masses. After reform and opening up, facing the complex situation of reform and opening up and the development of the socialist market economy, the Party further improved laws, regulations, and institutions, carried out Party spirit education, and promoted the solidification of style-building achievements into institutional norms and their deepening into ideological recognition, effectively improving the spiritual outlook and conduct of the entire Party. Through the exploration and efforts of generations of Chinese Communists, the connotation of the Party’s style-building has continuously deepened, its extension continuously expanded, and its system continuously improved. It can be said that the Party’s style-building practice in different historical periods has always been permeated with the requirement of turning it into a custom, laying a solid foundation for the inheritance and promotion of the Party’s fine conduct in the New Era.

新中国成立后，我们党立足于执掌全国政权所提出的党的建设新任务，接连开展整风运动，坚决破除官僚主义等不正之风，密切党同人民群众的血肉联系。改革开放后，党面对改革开放和发展社会主义市场经济的复杂局面，进一步健全法规制度、开展党性教育，推动作风建设成果固化为制度规范、深化为思想认同，有力改善了全党精神面貌和作风状况。在一代代中国共产党人的探索努力下，党的作风建设内涵不断深化、外延不断扩展、体系不断完善。可以说，党在不同历史时期的作风建设实践，始终贯穿着化风成俗的要求，为党的优良作风在新时代的继承和弘扬奠定了坚实基础。

Since the New Era, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, on the basis of summing up historical experience, has carried out a comprehensive and profound transformation of work style from the strategic height of advancing the Party’s self-revolution and consolidating its long-term governing position, writing a new chapter in the Party’s work style improvement. After the 18th National Congress of the CPC, the Politburo meeting of the Party Central Committee examined and approved the “Eight-Point Regulations of the 18th Politburo on Improving Work Style and Maintaining Close Ties with the Masses,” focusing on prominent issues strongly reflected by the masses, putting forward a series of practical and feasible concrete measures, establishing rules for strengthening the Party’s work style improvement with the determination and tenacity to leave a mark on stone and a trace on iron, solving the problem of what to grasp and how to grasp work style improvement under the new situation. After the 19th National Congress of the CPC, the Politburo meeting of the Party Central Committee examined the “Implementation Rules of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee for Implementing the Eight-Point Regulations of the Central Committee,” further refining and perfecting relevant regulations in response to new situations and problems encountered during the implementation of the Eight-Point Regulations, releasing a strong signal of consistently carrying work style improvement through to the end. Since the 20th National Congress of the CPC, the Party Central Committee has maintained the sobriety and firmness to solve the unique problems of a large Party, persisted in governing the Party with the spirit of reform and strict standards, made new deployments and put forward new requirements for persistently doing a good job in the Party’s work style improvement and implementing the spirit of the Eight-Point Regulations, pointed out the direction for continuously promoting work style improvement to go deeper and more solid, provided a strong guarantee for maintaining the Party’s advanced nature and purity and improving its long-term governing capacity, enabling the century-old Party to always stay at the forefront of the times and maintain vitality through revolutionary tempering.

新时代以来，以习近平同志为核心的党中央在总结历史经验的基础上，从推进党的自我革命、巩固党的长期执政地位的战略高度，自上而下开展全面深刻的作风变革，书写了党的作风建设新篇章。党的十八大召开后，中共中央政治局会议审议通过了《十八届中央政治局关于改进工作作风、密切联系群众的八项规定》，聚焦群众反映强烈的突出问题，提出了一系列切实可行的具体举措，以踏石留印、抓铁有痕的决心和韧劲为加强党的作风建设立下规矩，解决了新形势下作风建设抓什么、怎么抓的问题。党的十九大后，中共中央政治局会议审议了《中共中央政治局贯彻落实中央八项规定的实施细则》，针对中央八项规定实施过程中遇到的新情况新问题，进一步细化和完善相关规定，释放出一以贯之将作风建设进行到底的强烈信号。党的二十大以来，党中央时刻保持解决大党独有难题的清醒和坚定，坚持用改革精神和严的标准管党治党，就持之以恒抓好党的作风建设、贯彻落实中央八项规定精神作出新部署、提出新要求，为持续推动作风建设走深走实指明了前进方向，为保持党的先进性和纯洁性、提高党的长期执政能力提供了坚强保障，使百年大党在革命性淬炼中始终走在时代前列、永葆生机活力。

General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized that implementing the spirit of the Eight-Point Regulations is a tough battle and a protracted war. The Eight-Point Regulations are not only valid for 5 or 10 years, but must be adhered to for the long term. If formulating and implementing the Eight-Point Regulations was our Party’s act of establishing credibility and breaking new ground in the New Era, then using the nail-driving spirit to deeply and layer by layer rectify the “Four Forms of Decadence,” [4]4 “Head goose effect” (头雁效应) — a Chinese political metaphor in which leading cadres are compared to the lead goose in a flying formation; their exemplary behavior is expected to set the direction and pace for the entire group, creating a cascading effect on the conduct of other Party members and cadres. unremittingly correct discipline, style, and fight corruption, and continuously advance the Party’s self-revolution in tempering Party spirit and promoting fine work style, is a vivid practice striving to transform them into custom. The report of the 20th National Congress of the CPC succinctly summarized the historic achievements of the Party’s work style improvement in the New Era with the phrase “stopping some unhealthy practices that had long gone unchecked, and correcting some deep-seated problems that had persisted for years,” demonstrating the practical power of our Party’s persistent efforts to transform work style improvement into custom.

习近平总书记一再强调，落实中央八项规定精神是一场攻坚战、持久战。中央八项规定不是只管5年、10年，而是要长期坚持。如果说制定实施中央八项规定是新时代我们党徙木立信、开局破题之举，那么以钉钉子精神层层深入纠治“四风”，坚持不懈正风肃纪反腐，在锤炼党性修养、弘扬优良作风中不断推进党的自我革命，则是力求化风成俗的生动实践。党的二十大报告以“刹住了一些长期没有刹住的歪风，纠治了一些多年未除的顽瘴痼疾”凝练概括新时代党的作风建设取得的历史性成就，展现了我们党持之以恒推动作风建设化风成俗的实践伟力。

Transforming into custom contains the inevitable requirement and practical direction for promoting the Party’s work style improvement to go deeper and more solid.

化风成俗蕴含了推动党的作风建设走深走实的必然要求和实践指向

General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: “Work style improvement serves the overall work of the Party, and should reflect the requirements of the new situations and new tasks facing the Party for work style, making the process of improving work style a process of implementing the Party’s theories, lines, principles, and policies, and a process of smoothly advancing reform and opening up and socialist modernization.” The “Decision” of the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the CPC [5] states: “The current and future period is a critical period for comprehensively advancing the building of a strong country and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation through Chinese-path modernization.” Based on new situations and new tasks, to continue to inspire spirit, stimulate fighting will, gather people’s hearts, and pool strength with fine work style, we must take the opportunity of carrying out in-depth study and education on implementing the spirit of the Eight-Point Regulations, scientifically summarize our Party’s practical experience in improving work style in the New Era, continuously deepen the understanding of the laws of the Party’s work style improvement, promote the normalization and long-term effectiveness of work style improvement, and achieve practical results in transforming them into custom.

习近平总书记强调：“作风建设是为党的工作大局服务的，应该体现党面临的新形势新任务对作风的要求，使改进作风的过程成为贯彻执行党的理论和路线方针政策的过程，成为推动改革开放和社会主义现代化建设顺利进行的过程。”党的二十届三中全会《决定》提出：“当前和今后一个时期是以中国式现代化全面推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业的关键时期。”立足新形势新任务，继续以优良作风振奋精神、激发斗志、凝聚人心、汇集力量，必须以开展深入贯彻中央八项规定精神学习教育为契机，科学总结新时代我们党改进作风的实践经验，持续深化对党的作风建设的规律性认识，推进作风建设常态化长效化，在化风成俗上取得实效。

Adhere to the dialectical unity of targeted rectification and addressing both symptoms and root causes. Work style problems are diverse in manifestation and complex in cause, requiring both precise identification and severe punishment, releasing a strong signal of comprehensive and strict governance to the end; and also systematic treatment and addressing both symptoms and root causes, eradicating the soil for the breeding and spread of bad work styles. Since the New Era, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core has faced the prominent problems within

坚持靶向纠治与标本兼治辩证统一。作风问题表现多样、成因复杂，既需要精准识别、严肃查处，释放全面从严、一严到底的强烈信号；也需要系统施治、标本兼治，铲除不良作风滋生蔓延的土壤。新时代以来，以习近平同志为核心的党中央直面党内存在的突出问题，把中央八项规定作为“铁规矩、硬杠杠”，从严整治不正之风，极大改善了党内政治生态。同时要看到，作风问题具有反复性和顽固性。近年来，一些地方和部门将“文山会海”翻新为“数字留痕”，一些党员干部违规收受礼品礼金由“明面”转向“暗线”，折射出“四风”隐形变异的新动向。因此，要跳出“抓一抓就好转、松一松就反弹”的怪圈，不仅要把握作风问题的地区性、行业性、阶段性新特点，对突出问题严抓不放、常抓不懈，更要由表及里地分析作风问题产生的深层次原因，把正风肃纪反腐贯通起来，以“同查”严惩风腐交织问题，以“同治”铲除风腐共性根源；把查处“四风”问题同深化改革、完善制度、促进治理贯通起来，以系统性、综合性体制机制创新为涵养优良作风提供有效保障。

Adhere to the organic integration of external constraints and internal consciousness. Promoting the Party’s style building is a systematic project; it must comprehensively leverage the facilitating role of external factors and the fundamental role of internal factors. It is necessary to strengthen the external constraints of Party discipline and state laws, providing rigid institutional guarantees for turning style into custom; it is also necessary to strengthen the ideological consciousness of Party members and cadres, injecting fundamental spiritual impetus into turning style into custom. Since the New Era, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core has, on the one hand, advanced style building on the track of governing the Party through institutions and regulations, issuing and revising a series of intra-Party regulations and systems to improve work styles, continuously tightening the institutional cage; on the other hand, it has run the clear requirements of style building through multiple rounds of intra-Party centralized education, prompting Party members and cadres to consolidate the foundation and cultivate the source from an ideological perspective, establishing a correct outlook on power, outlook on political performance, and outlook on career. Thus, external constraints and internal consciousness form a synergistic effect, coalescing a powerful joint force for advancing style building. To further consolidate and deepen the effectiveness of style building, it is necessary to scientifically grasp the important roles and dialectical relationship between external constraints and internal consciousness, further enhance the authority and execution of institutional norms, while improving the targeting and effectiveness of ideological education, promoting the close integration and coordinated effort of the two, constructing a governance pattern that combines hardness and softness and complements each other, so that a clean and upright atmosphere truly becomes a behavioral norm that the vast majority of Party members and cadres use daily without conscious awareness.

坚持外在约束和内在自觉有机结合。推进党的作风建设是一项系统工程，必须综合发挥外因的促进作用和内因的根本作用，既要强化党纪法规的外在约束，为化风成俗提供刚性制度保障；也要强化党员干部的思想自觉，为化风成俗注入根本精神动力。新时代以来，以习近平同志为核心的党中央一方面在制度治党、依规治党的轨道上推进作风建设，出台和修订了一系列改进作风的党内法规制度，不断扎紧制度笼子；另一方面将作风建设的鲜明要求贯穿于多次党内集中教育中，推动党员干部从思想上固本培元，树立正确的权力观、政绩观、事业观，从而使外在约束与内在自觉形成叠加效应，凝聚起推进作风建设的强大合力。进一步巩固和深化作风建设成效，要科学把握外在约束与内在自觉的重要作用及辩证关系，进一步增强制度规范的权威性和执行力，同时提高思想教育的针对性和实效性，推动二者紧密结合、同向发力，构建刚柔并济、相辅相成的治理格局，让清风正气真正成为广大党员干部日用而不觉的行为准则。

Adhere to the synchronous resonance of Party conduct and government conduct with social customs and folkways. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: “The Eight-Point Regulations of the Central Committee are neither the highest standard nor the ultimate goal; they are only the first step in improving our work style, a basic requirement that we as Communists should meet” and “Persist in carrying forward the spirit of driving a nail to strengthen style building, using fine Party conduct to drive social customs and folkways upward and toward goodness.” Party conduct and government conduct are the concrete embodiment of the world outlook of Party members and cadres in daily actions; social customs and folkways reflect people’s value orientations, behavioral habits, and basic moral standards in public life. Party conduct and government conduct are closely linked with social customs and folkways, profoundly influencing and mutually shaping each other. The reason the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core took the Eight-Point Regulations as the entry point and mobilization order for improving the Party’s work style in the New Era is precisely because the work style of leading cadres largely influences the direction of the entire Party and the entire society’s atmosphere. If leading cadres lead by example and set a precedent, they can use the “head goose effect” [4]4 “Head goose effect” (头雁效应) — a Chinese political metaphor in which leading cadres are compared to the lead goose in a flying formation; their exemplary behavior is expected to set the direction and pace for the entire group, creating a cascading effect on the conduct of other Party members and cadres. to drive the vast majority of Party members and cadres to change their work style, promoting the formation of a good atmosphere of abiding by rules and discipline and engaging in entrepreneurship. Similarly, if all Party members play a vanguard and exemplary role, further consolidating the flesh-and-blood ties between the Party and the masses, they can drive the entire society to uphold virtue and goodness, advocate integrity and frugality, and lead social customs to continuously improve. Therefore, to promote turning style into custom in style building, it is necessary to create a benign transmission of fine work styles among leading cadres, all Party members, and the public, using a clean and upright political ecosystem to lead a righteous and full social ecosystem, and using a righteous and full social ecosystem to nurture a clean and upright political ecosystem, thereby gathering more powerful positive energy for the development of the Party and the state’s undertakings.

坚持党风政风和社风民风同频共振。习近平总书记指出：“中央八项规定既不是最高标准，更不是最终目的，只是我们改进作风的第一步，是我们作为共产党人应该做到的基本要求”“坚持发扬钉钉子精神加强作风建设，以优良党风带动社风民风向上向善”。党风和政风是党员干部世界观在日常行动中的具体体现，社风和民风反映了人们在公共生活中的价值取向、行为习惯及基本道德水准。党风、政风与社风、民风紧密相连，彼此深刻影响、相互塑造。以习近平同志为核心的党中央之所以将中央八项规定作为新时代改进党的作风的切入口和动员令，就是因为领导干部的作风在很大程度上影响着全党和全社会风气的走向。领导干部以身作则、率先垂范，就能以“头雁效应”带动广大党员干部转变作风，推动形成遵规守纪、干事创业的良好氛围。同样，全体党员发挥先锋模范作用，进一步巩固党同人民群众的血肉联系，就能带动全社会崇德向善、崇廉尚俭，引领社会风气持续向好。因此，推动作风建设化风成俗，就要使优良作风在领导干部、全体党员以及社会公众之间形成良性传导，以风清气正的政治生态引领正气充盈的社会生态，以正气充盈的社会生态涵养风清气正的政治生态，进而为党和国家事业发展汇聚更为强大的正能量。
