The Theoretical Logic and Direction of Effort for Strengthening the Political and Organizational Functions of Party Organizations in the New Era
郑士鹏:新时代增强党组织政治功能和组织功能的理论逻辑与着力方向
Strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations is an important link in advancing the great new project of Party building in the New Era, a crucial lever for following the mass line of the Party in the New Era, and an important guarantee for the Party to lead the further comprehensive deepening of reform. The "Decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Further Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Advancing Chinese-Path Modernization" (hereinafter referred to as the "Decision") points out: "Strengthen the political and organizational functions of Party organizations. Explore effective pathways for strengthening Party building in new economic organizations, new social organizations, and new employment groups." The Party's strength comes from organization, and a tight organizational system is the Party's advantage and source of strength. It is necessary to continuously strengthen the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, forge a cadre contingent that dares to struggle, is adept at struggle, and has the courage for self-revolution, so as to better implement the Party's line, principles, policies, and the various decisions and deployments of the Party Central Committee. In the process of deeply advancing the great new project of Party building in the New Era, it is necessary to focus on the important task of strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, consolidate the political and organizational foundations of Party organizations, and provide a strong guarantee for further comprehensively deepening reform and writing a new chapter in comprehensively building a modern socialist country.
增强党组织政治功能和组织功能是推进新时代党的建设新的伟大工程的重要环节,是走好新时代党的群众路线的重要抓手,也是党领导进一步全面深化改革的重要保障。《中共中央关于进一步全面深化改革、推进中国式现代化的决定》(以下简称《决定》)指出:“增强党组织政治功能和组织功能。探索加强新经济组织、新社会组织、新就业群体党的建设有效途径。”党的力量来自组织,严密的组织体系是党的优势所在、力量所在。要持续增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,锻造敢于斗争、善于斗争、勇于自我革命的干部队伍,从而更好地贯彻落实党的路线方针政策和党中央各项决策部署。在深入推进新时代党的建设新的伟大工程的进程中,需聚焦增强党组织政治功能和组织功能这个重要任务,夯实党组织的政治和组织根基,为进一步全面深化改革,谱写全面建设社会主义现代化国家新篇章提供坚强保证。
The Internal Logic of the Political and Organizational Functions of Party Organizations
党组织政治功能和组织功能的内在逻辑
The Communist Party of China is a Marxist political party organized on the basis of revolutionary ideals and iron discipline; this is one of the distinctive features that distinguishes the Communist Party of China from other political parties. The political function is the basic function of Party organizations, the organizational function is an important foundation for Party organization building, and the organizational function serves the political function. The political and organizational functions of Party organizations possess a logical coupling; the two complement each other and are internally unified in theoretical logic and practical advancement.
中国共产党是依靠革命理想和铁的纪律组织起来的马克思主义政党,这是中国共产党区别于其他政党的显著特征之一。政治功能是党组织的基本功能,组织功能是党组织建设的重要基础,组织功能服务于政治功能。党组织政治功能和组织功能具有逻辑耦合性,二者在理论逻辑与实践推进中相辅相成、内在统一。
The political function is the basic function of Party organizations. Political attribute is the fundamental attribute of Party organizations, while the political function is the basic function of Party organizations and also the external manifestation of the Party's inherent political attribute. From an overall perspective, the political function of Party organizations is mainly manifested in expressing the interests of the vast majority of people, formulating and implementing political programs and policies, mobilizing social organizations, and cultivating political talent. The political function of Party organizations broadly acts upon the construction and development of multiple fields such as politics, economy, culture, society, and ecology. "The political function of the Communist Party of China is the sum or total of the political functions borne by Party organizations at all levels," and it needs to rely on a sound organizational system to play its role. Combined with the responsibilities and missions of Party organizations, the political function of Party organizations is prominently manifested in aspects such as implementing the Party's line, principles, and policies, conveying policy systems, and organizing and mobilizing. As a proletarian political party established under the guidance of Marxism, the fundamental organizational system and leadership system of the Communist Party of China is democratic centralism. This system enables the political function of Party organizations to embody a high degree of political nature, and promotes the formation of a top-down tight organizational system and strict organizational discipline, giving the political function of Party organizations more distinct organizational characteristics and advantages. The formation basis of the political function of Party organizations is the essential attributes of the Communist Party of China and the long-term goal of self-revolution; it is a high-level summary and externalized manifestation of the Party's original aspiration and founding mission, advanced nature traits, and political responsibility. In summary, the political function of Party organizations is embodied in its overall leadership over the Party and state affairs, national governance, and value guidance under the guidance of the overall national interest and common values of the nation, and it encompasses the expression of the people's interests, policy formulation and implementation, and organizational mobilization.
政治功能是党组织的基本功能。政治属性是党组织的根本属性,而政治功能则是党组织的基本功能,也是党固有政治属性的外在体现。从整体上来看,党组织政治功能主要体现为表达绝大多数人利益、制定与实施政治纲领政策,动员社会组织及培养政治人才等。党组织政治功能广泛地作用于政治、经济、文化、社会以及生态等多领域的建设和发展,“中国共产党的政治功能是各级党组织所承担的政治功能的相加或总和”,需要依靠健全的组织体系发挥作用。结合党组织的职责使命,党组织政治功能突出表现在践行党的路线方针政策、传达政策制度以及组织动员等方面。作为在马克思主义指导下建立起来的无产阶级政党,中国共产党的根本组织制度和领导制度是民主集中制,这一制度使党组织政治功能体现出高度的政治性,并促进形成了自上而下的严密组织体系以及严明的组织纪律,使党组织政治功能具有更加鲜明的组织性特点和优势。党组织政治功能的形成基础是中国共产党的本质属性和自我革命的长远目标,是党的初心使命、先进性特质以及政治责任的高度汇总和外化体现。综上,党组织政治功能体现为,其在国家整体利益和民族共同价值导向下,对党和国家事业的全面领导、国家治理以及价值引领,并涵盖人民利益的表达、政策的制定实施以及组织动员等方面。
The organizational function is an important foundation for Party organization building. The Party's strength comes from organization; the organizational function is an important foundation for Party organization building. Since its founding, the Communist Party of China has been committed to building a proletarian political party with tight organization and strict discipline. Marx emphasized: "Only when the workers are united through organization and guided by knowledge can numbers play a decisive role." The transformation of the Party's contingent from quantitative to qualitative change requires a fully functional and efficiently operating organizational system. In 1922, the Second National Congress of the CPC formulated the first relatively complete and formal Party Constitution of the Communist Party of China, emphasizing that the Communist Party of China is a contingent of the proletariat with tight organization and strict discipline, and listed the issue of "organization" building as a separate chapter for focused discussion, promoting the formation of an important foundation and tradition for the Party's organizational building. The "Constitution of the Communist Party of China" stipulates: "The Party is a unified whole organized according to its program and constitution and on the basis of democratic centralism." It emphasizes the organizational characteristics of the Party from the overall level of Party building, clarifies that the Party's primary organizations are the fighting fortresses of the Party in the basic-level social organizations and the foundation of all the Party's work and combat effectiveness, and discusses the basic tasks of primary-level Party organizations from aspects such as propagating and implementing the Party's line, principles, and policies; organizing study; education, management, supervision, and service of Party members; maintaining close ties with the masses; fully stimulating the initiative and creativity of Party members and the masses; developing Party members; supervising Party cadres; and struggling against violations of discipline and law. In practice, the organizational function of Party organizations focuses on serving the realization of the political function; it is necessary to fully leverage the political core role of Party organizations and reflect the political advantages of Party organizations. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasizes: "Only when the Party's central organizations, local organizations, and primary-level organizations are all strong and effective and fully play their roles can the advantages and power of the Party's organizational system be fully manifested." The organizational functions borne by Party organizations at all levels are an important component of the overall political function of the Communist Party of China. Fully leveraging the organizational function of Party organizations is conducive to correcting the problems of the hollowing out, weakening, and marginalization of Party organizations, boosting the enthusiasm of Party members, cadres, and the masses for undertaking endeavors and starting businesses, highlighting the exemplary and vanguard role of Party members, and transforming organizational advantages into political advantages, and then into advantages for promoting the Party and state's cause to achieve greater victories.
组织功能是党组织建设的重要基础。党的力量来自组织,组织功能是党组织建设的重要基础。自成立之日起,中国共产党便致力于建设一个组织严密、纪律严明的无产阶级政党。马克思强调:“只有当工人通过组织而联合起来并获得知识的指导时,人数才能起举足轻重的作用。”党的队伍建设从量变到质变需要功能完备、运行高效的组织体系。1922年,中共二大制定了中国共产党第一部较为完整且正式的党章,强调中国共产党是无产阶级有严密组织和严格纪律的队伍,并将“组织”建设问题单列成章进行重点探讨,推动形成了党的组织建设的重要基础和传统。《中国共产党章程》规定:“党是根据自己的纲领和章程,按照民主集中制组织起来的统一整体。”从党的建设整体层面强调了党的组织性特质,明确了党的基层组织是党在社会基层组织中的战斗堡垒,是党的全部工作和战斗力的基础,并从宣传和执行党的路线、方针、政策,组织学习,党员教育、管理、监督和服务,以及密切联系群众,充分发挥党员和群众的积极性创造性,发展党员工作,监督党员干部,同违纪违法行为作斗争等方面,探讨了基层党组织的基本任务。在实践中,党组织的组织功能重点服务于政治功能的实现,需充分发挥党组织的政治核心作用,体现党组织的政治优势。习近平总书记强调:“党的中央组织、地方组织、基层组织都坚强有力、充分发挥作用,党的组织体系的优势和威力才能充分体现出来。”各级党组织所肩负的组织功能是中国共产党整体性政治功能的重要组成部分。充分发挥党组织的组织功能,有利于纠正党组织虚化、弱化、边缘化问题,提振党员、干部、群众干事创业的奋斗热情,彰显党员的先锋模范作用,并将组织优势转化为政治优势,进而转化为推动党和国家事业取得更大胜利的优势。
The internal coupling of the political and organizational functions of Party organizations. Modern political parties usually have a certain social foundation and distinct political stance, and therefore the political ideas, political principles, political programs, and governance styles derived from them also differ considerably. The political and organizational functions of the Communist Party of China's Party organizations are manifestations of its original aspiration and founding mission; the two promote, influence, and fulfill each other. First, the value orientation of the political function towards the organizational function is manifested as people-centeredness. As the vanguard of the Chinese working class, the vanguard of the Chinese people, and the vanguard of the Chinese nation, the Communist Party of China has always represented the development demands of China's advanced productive forces, always represented the forward direction of China's advanced culture, and always represented the fundamental interests of the broadest majority of the Chinese people.
党组织政治功能和组织功能的内在耦合性。现代政党通常具有一定的社会基础和鲜明的政治立场,因此衍生出的政治理念、政治原则、政治纲领以及治党风格也存在着较大差异。中国共产党党组织的政治功能和组织功能是其初心使命的体现,两者相互促进、相互影响、相互成就。第一,政治功能对组织功能的价值导向体现为人民性。作为中国工人阶级的先锋队、中国人民和中华民族的先锋队,中国共产党始终代表中国先进生产力的发展要求、始终代表中国先进文化的前进方向、始终代表中国最广大人民的根本利益。
Second, the organizational function promotes the exertion of the political function. As Engels stated: "A new party must have a clear and positive program, which may be modified in detail due to changes in circumstances and the party's own development, but must be endorsed by the entire party at any given period." The organizational function can, through scientific organizational mechanisms and methods, promote unity and cohesion and form a common political will. Third, the political function and the organizational function complement each other and are internally unified. The organizational function serves the political function and is the foundation and prerequisite for ensuring the effective exertion of the political function; the political function is the important purpose and ultimate goal of exerting the organizational function, providing value guidance and political guarantee for the organizational function. The synergistic enhancement of the political and organizational functions can fully embody and leverage the Party's political and organizational advantages.
第二,组织功能促进政治功能的发挥。正如恩格斯所言:“一个新的党必须有一个明确的积极的纲领,这个纲领在细节上可以因环境的改变和党本身的发展而改动,但是在每一个时期内都必须为全党所赞同。”组织功能能够以科学的组织机制与方式,促进团结凝聚,形成共同政治意志。第三,政治功能和组织功能两者相辅相成、内在统一。组织功能服务于政治功能,是保证政治功能有效发挥的基础和前提;政治功能是发挥组织功能的重要目的和落脚点,为组织功能提供价值引领和政治保障。政治功能和组织功能协同提升能够充分体现并发挥党的政治优势和组织优势。
The Value Implications of Strengthening the Political and Organizational Functions of Party Organizations
增强党组织政治功能和组织功能的价值意蕴
Currently, the situation and environment are increasingly complex and severe, and the difficulty of reform and development tasks is unprecedented. Strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations has extremely important contemporary value. It is not only an essential requirement for enriching and developing Marxist party-building theory, but also an inherent requirement for advancing the Party's self-revolution to lead social revolution, and moreover, it is an inevitable requirement for improving the Party's leadership level in further comprehensively deepening reform.
当前,形势环境愈发复杂严峻,改革发展任务之艰前所未有,增强党组织政治功能和组织功能具有极其重要的时代价值,其不仅是丰富和发展马克思主义建党学说的本质要求,也是推进以党的自我革命引领社会革命的内在要求,更是提高党对进一步全面深化改革领导水平的必然要求。
An essential requirement for enriching and developing Marxist theory of Party building. Since its founding, a Marxist political party has had a distinct political stance, political proposition, and political ideal. Marx and Engels pointed out that the Communists "have no interests separate and apart from those of the proletariat as a whole," emphasizing that Communists always represent the interests of the entire proletariat. Working for the interests of the vast majority runs through the entirety of Marxism, and this value concept and political stance propelled an unprecedented revolutionary movement. In the *Rules of the Communist League*, Marx and Engels stipulated that the League's organizational structure mainly included branches, districts, leading districts, the Central Committee, and the Congress. Through continuous revision, the Marxist theory of proletarian party building further highlighted the importance of organizational construction, gradually maturing the theory of political party organization. The Marxist theory of Party building endows Marxist political parties not only with a distinct political attribute but also with a rigorous organizational system formed in the course of development. In the *Address of the Central Committee to the Communist League*, Marx and Engels profoundly summarized the lessons of the League's struggle, emphasizing that the Communist League "should make every one of its branches a center and core of workers' associations," indicating that only by establishing a rigorous organization, possessing lofty revolutionary ideals, and strong political and organizational functions can a proletarian party build itself more robustly. Strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations in the New Era is an enrichment, development, and practice of the scientific truth of Marxist theory of Party building. Taking political construction as the guide, continuously improving the organizational system, promoting full coverage of Party organizations and Party work, and continuing and innovating the theoretical propositions of Marxist political parties' political ideals, political pursuits, and organizational construction—this is not only a product of adapting Marxism to the Chinese context and the needs of the times but also a vivid manifestation of the fundamental attribute of the Communist Party of China as a Marxist political party.
丰富和发展马克思主义建党学说的本质要求。马克思主义政党自成立起便有着鲜明的政治立场、政治主张和政治理想。马克思和恩格斯指出,共产党人“没有任何同整个无产阶级的利益不同的利益”,强调共产党人始终代表整个无产阶级的利益。为绝大多数人谋利益贯穿马克思主义全篇,这一价值理念和政治立场推动了前所未有的革命运动。在《共产主义者同盟章程》中,马克思和恩格斯规定了同盟的组织机构主要包括支部、区部、总区部、中央委员会和代表大会。经过不断修正,马克思主义的无产阶级政党建设理论进一步突出了组织建设的重要性,使政党组织建设理论逐渐走向成熟。马克思主义建党学说使马克思主义政党不仅具备鲜明的政治属性,更在发展中形成严密的组织体系。在《共产主义者同盟中央委员会告同盟书》中,马克思和恩格斯深刻总结了同盟斗争的经验教训,强调共产主义者同盟“应该使自己的每一个支部都成为工人协会的中心和核心”,表明无产阶级政党只有建立起严密的组织,拥有崇高的革命理想、强大的政治功能和组织功能,才能将马克思主义政党建设得更加坚强有力。新时代增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,是对马克思主义建党学说科学真理的丰富、发展和践行。以政治建设为统领,不断健全组织体系,推动党的组织和党的工作全覆盖,延续和创新马克思主义政党的政治理想、政治追求和组织建设的理论主张,这不仅是马克思主义中国化时代化发展的产物,也是中国共产党作为马克思主义政党根本属性的生动体现。
An inherent requirement for advancing the Party's self-revolution to lead social revolution. The fundamental purpose of the Party's self-revolution is to lead social revolution. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasizes: "We must plan the Party's self-revolution in response to the new requirements of the great social revolution practice, and use the new achievements of the great social revolution to test the actual effectiveness of the Party's self-revolution." Achieving the fundamental goal of using the Party's self-revolution to lead social revolution cannot be separated from the exertion of the political and organizational functions of Party organizations. Strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations is an inevitable requirement for upholding the Party's overall leadership under new historical conditions and advancing the great new project of Party building in the New Era. It can further leverage the Party's political advantages, enhance organizational strength, enable the Party's self-revolution to achieve maximum effectiveness with clear political goals and a sound organizational structure, and consequently have a positive impact on promoting social revolution. General Secretary Xi Jinping points out: "The
推进以党的自我革命引领社会革命的内在要求。党的自我革命的根本目的是引领社会革命,习近平总书记强调:“要针对伟大社会革命实践的新要求来谋划党的自我革命,用伟大社会革命发展的新成果来检验党的自我革命的实际成效”。实现以党的自我革命引领社会革命的根本目的,离不开党组织政治功能和组织功能的发挥。增强党组织政治功能和组织功能是在新的历史条件下坚持党的全面领导、推进新时代党的建设新的伟大工程的必然要求,能够进一步发挥党的政治优势,增强组织力量,使党的自我革命以清晰的政治目标、健全的组织结构实现最大效能,继而对推动社会革命形成积极影响。习近平总书记指出:“党的全面领导、党的全部工作要靠党的坚强组织体系去实现。”以党的自我革命引领社会革命,需要依靠上下贯通、执行有力的严密组织体系,依托政治功能和组织功能,持续增强党组织的政治领导力、思想引领力、群众组织力、社会号召力。当前,党的建设在一定程度上仍存在基层党组织弱化、虚化、边缘化,组织和政治生活娱乐化、庸俗化等问题,解决这些问题,迫切要求以党的自我革命不断增强党组织政治功能和组织功能。在以自我革命引领社会革命的进程中,要紧紧围绕以中国式现代化全面推进强国建设的目标,持续增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,从而不断完善党的自我革命制度规范体系,时刻保持解决大党独有难题的清醒和坚定,使党的自我革命更好服从服务于党的中心任务。
An inevitable requirement for raising the Party's leadership level in further deepening reform comprehensively. Strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations is an important lever for implementing the Party's organizational line in the New Era, and also an inevitable requirement for raising the Party's leadership level in further deepening reform comprehensively. The "Decision" [of the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee] points out: "The Party's leadership is the fundamental guarantee for further deepening reform comprehensively and advancing Chinese-path modernization." According to statistical data on intra-Party membership from the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, as of December 31, 2023, the total number of CPC members was 99.185 million, a net increase of 1.144 million compared with the end of 2022, a growth rate of 1.2%. The CPC currently has 5.176 million primary-level Party organizations, a net increase of 111,000 compared with the end of 2022, a growth rate of 2.2%. Nationwide, there are 771,000 Party organizations in state organs, 997,000 in public institutions, 1.600 million in enterprises, and 183,000 in social organizations, basically achieving the goal of establishing organizations wherever they should be established. This fully demonstrates that Party organizations have been effectively embedded in the social grassroots and integrated into all fields and all links of the modernization of national governance. On the new journey of the New Era, further deepening reform comprehensively places higher demands on strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations. Strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations has become an important pathway for the Party to implement its political line and organizational line in the New Era in the process of leading further deepening reform comprehensively. The continuous strengthening of the political and organizational functions of Party organizations will promote the improvement of the strict management system in which the Party manages ideology, work, work style, and discipline, enabling primary-level Party organizations to effectively strengthen political leadership over reform and innovation in various fields, and promoting the role of primary-level Party organizations as battle fortresses and the vanguard and exemplary role of the vast majority of Party members. At the same time, strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations can, by taking the enhancement of the Party's organizational capacity as the entry point, focus on the realization of the Party's political functions, enabling Party committees (Party groups) at all levels, the vast majority of Party members, and cadres to consciously maintain a high degree of alignment with the Party Central Committee, comprehensively improving the political judgment, political comprehension, and political execution of Party members and cadres in the work of further deepening reform comprehensively, and promoting the building of a high-quality cadre contingent with a thorough spirit of self-revolution and a concentrated effort to promote further deepening reform comprehensively, ensuring that the major decisions and deployments of the Party Central Committee on further deepening reform comprehensively are fully implemented in all regions, departments, and fields.
提高党对进一步全面深化改革领导水平的必然要求。增强党组织政治功能和组织功能是贯彻新时代党的组织路线的重要抓手,也是提高党对进一步全面深化改革领导水平的必然要求。《决定》指出:“党的领导是进一步全面深化改革、推进中国式现代化的根本保证。”根据中共中央组织部党内统计数据显示,截至2023年12月31日,中国共产党党员总数为9918.5万名,比2022年底净增114.4万名,增幅为1.2%。中国共产党现有基层组织517.6万个,比2022年底净增11.1万个,增幅为2.2%。全国共有机关基层党组织77.1万个,事业单位基层党组织99.7万个,企业基层党组织160.0万个,社会组织基层党组织18.3万个,基本实现应建尽建。这充分表明,党组织已有效嵌入社会基层,融入国家治理现代化的各领域、各环节。新时代新征程,进一步全面深化改革对增强党组织政治功能和组织功能提出了更高的要求。增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,已经成为党在领导进一步全面深化改革的过程中贯彻新时代党的政治路线与组织路线的重要途径。党组织政治功能和组织功能的不断增强,将促进完善党管思想、管工作、管作风、管纪律的从严管理制度,使基层党组织切实加强对各领域改革创新的政治引领,促进发挥基层党组织的战斗堡垒作用和广大党员的先锋模范作用。同时,增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,能够以增强党的组织力为切入点,聚焦党的政治功能的实现,使各级党委(党组)、广大党员和干部自觉同党中央保持高度一致,全面提高党员干部在进一步全面深化改革工作中的政治判断力、政治领悟力、政治执行力,促进建设一支具有彻底自我革命精神、聚力推动进一步全面深化改革的高素质干部队伍,确保党中央关于进一步全面深化改革的重大决策部署充分落实到各地区、各部门、各领域。
The Direction of Effort for Strengthening the Political and Organizational Functions of Party Organizations
增强党组织政治功能和组织功能的着力点
On the new journey of the New Era, strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations faces more arduous tasks. It is necessary, on the basis of an overall grasp of the intrinsic relationship and importance of the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, to strengthen the leading role of the Party's political construction, promote the organic unity of tangible coverage and effective coverage of Party organizations, adhere to the mass line of the Party in the New Era, further strengthen the Party's team building, and thereby continuously optimize and bring into play the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, promoting the steady and long-term development of the cause of the Party and the state.
新时代新征程,增强党组织政治功能和组织功能面临着更为艰巨的任务,需在整体把握党组织政治功能和组织功能内在关系及重要性的基础上,强化党的政治建设统领作用,促进实现党组织有形覆盖和有效覆盖的有机统一,坚持走好新时代党的群众路线,进一步加强党的队伍建设,从而不断优化和发挥党组织政治功能和组织功能,推动党和国家事业行稳致远。
Adhere to the basic positioning of the organizational line serving the political line, and strengthen the leading role of the Party’s political construction. The Party’s political line is the concentrated embodiment of the Party’s political propositions; the Party’s organizational line is determined by the political line and is an important guarantee for realizing the Party’s political line. Since its founding, the Communist Party of China has always adhered to the basic positioning of the organizational line serving the political line, insisted that organizational work serve the Party’s central work, and strengthened the leading role of the Party’s political construction. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: “Implement the general requirements for Party building in
坚持组织路线服务政治路线的基本定位,强化党的政治建设统领作用。党的政治路线是党的政治主张的集中体现,党的组织路线由政治路线决定,是实现党的政治路线的重要保证。中国共产党自成立以来,始终坚持组织路线服务政治路线的基本定位,坚持组织工作服务于党的中心工作,强化党的政治建设统领作用。习近平总书记强调:“贯彻新时代党的建设总要求,落实新时代党的组织路线,以党的政治建设统领党的建设各项工作。”增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,一是坚持把党的政治建设摆在首位,坚定维护党中央权威和集中统一领导,从整体层面上突出政治统领。坚持和加强党的全面领导,紧密围绕党的政治路线,明确党的组织建设的政治方向、立场及定位。充分发挥地方党委在区域经济社会发展中总揽全局、协调各方的作用,集中精力把好方向、抓好大事、出好思路、管好干部,把党的政治功能和组织功能效用释放到新时代坚持和发展中国特色社会主义伟大事业中来。二是在深化对党的建设规律性认识的基础上,根据新时代的新形势、新目标、新任务,不断提高政治判断力、政治领悟力、政治执行力。深入思考推进新时代党的建设新的伟大工程的根本性、全局性、长远性问题,运用马克思主义立场观点方法,科学把握形势变化、精准识别现象本质,增强对客观环境动态变化的预见能力和明辨是非、抵御风险挑战的研判、应对能力。各级党组织要明确职责定位,坚持按照党的政治路线和组织路线分析形势、推动工作,始终同党中央保持高度一致。三是牢固树立党章意识,发挥党章作为管党治党总章程的作用。引导全体党员干部坚持以党章为镜鉴,以党章为戒尺,以党章为准绳,严格遵守党规党纪,自觉以党章规范言行,做到政治本色不变、政治立场不移、政治方向不偏。不断增强“四个意识”、坚定“四个自信”、做到“两个维护”,按照党章要求建好党的各级组织,确保中心工作推进到哪里,组织工作就跟进到哪里、服务到哪里、保障到哪里。
Promoting the effective embedding of Party organizations at the grassroots level, achieving the organic unity of the tangible coverage and effective coverage of Party organizations. A rigorous organizational system is an important vehicle for the Party to embed itself in and serve the grassroots of society. To manage a vast organizational system, it is necessary to continuously strengthen the political and organizational functions of Party organizations. Only by focusing on the overall goal of comprehensive coverage, vertical and horizontal integration, authoritative and efficient operation, and continuously expanding the coverage of Party organizations in new fields and new industries, can the role of grassroots Party organizations as battle fortresses and the vanguard and exemplary role of Party members be fully realized. To strengthen the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, first, continuously promote the transformation of Party organizations from tangible coverage to effective coverage, focus on the goals and tasks of modernizing national governance, and build an open pattern of Party building. Further expand the coverage of Party organization construction in grassroots society, strengthen problem orientation, clear blind spots in grassroots Party organization construction, expand and build Party organizations on new fronts such as emerging industries, cultural fields, and online platforms, expand the Party's coverage in emerging social organizations, non-public ownership economies, social groups, and various types of intermediary organizations, so that the Party's grassroots organizations are effectively embedded in various types of grassroots organizations, covering groups in all fields. Second, accurately grasp the laws of economic and social development in the development of Chinese-path modernization, and strive to enrich the forms of construction of the Party's grassroots organizations. Adhere to taking "vertical and horizontal integration, with effective execution" as the focal point, reasonably improve, optimize, and upgrade the structural form and leadership methods of grassroots Party organizations, and enrich the social service functions of grassroots Party organizations. Combine the work characteristics of various grassroots organizations, innovate the functional structure of Party organizations, strengthen Party building work in industry associations, academic societies, chambers of commerce, and other organizations, and create grassroots Party organizations in agricultural cooperatives and rural social organizations, making government-village integration, district-based management, etc., new forms of grassroots Party organization construction. Third, rectify weak, lax, and dysfunctional grassroots Party organizations on a regular and long-term basis, and strengthen the political and organizational functions of grassroots Party organizations. Adhere to the principle of combining prevention and treatment with prevention as the main focus, establish and improve mechanisms for full-process monitoring, comprehensive rectification, long-term prevention, and coordinated promotion, place special rectification in an important position, accurately identify the actual problems of grassroots Party organizations in various localities, list rectification lists and improvement plans level by level, and properly solve prominent problems such as the weakening of political ability of some grassroots Party cadres and members and the entertainment-oriented and vulgarized nature of organizational life. Establish and improve corresponding institutional systems, responsibility systems, and working mechanisms to achieve the organic unity of tangible coverage and effective coverage of Party organizations, strengthen the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, and lead grassroots Party cadres and members to better fulfill the various responsibilities entrusted by the Party Constitution.
推动党组织有效嵌入基层,实现党组织有形覆盖和有效覆盖的有机统一。严密的组织体系是党嵌入社会基层、服务社会基层的重要载体。管理好庞大的组织体系,须持续增强党组织政治功能和组织功能。只有围绕全面覆盖、上下贯通、权威高效的总体目标,不断扩大党组织在新领域和新产业的覆盖面,才能充分发挥基层党组织战斗堡垒作用和党员先锋模范作用。增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,一是持续推动党组织从有形覆盖向有效覆盖转变,聚焦国家治理现代化的目标任务,构建开放式的党建格局。进一步扩大党组织建设在基层社会的覆盖面,强化问题导向,扫清基层党组织建设的盲区,在新兴产业、文化领域、网络平台等新阵地上拓展和建设党组织,扩大党在新兴社会组织、非公有制经济、社会团体以及各类中介组织中的覆盖面,使党的基层组织有效嵌入各类基层组织,覆盖各领域群体。二是准确把握中国式现代化发展中经济社会的发展规律,着力丰富党的基层组织的建设形式。坚持以“上下贯通、执行有力”为着力点,对基层党组织的结构形态、领导方式加以合理改进和优化升级,丰富基层党组织的社会服务功能。结合各基层组织的工作特点,创新党组织的功能结构,加强行业协会、学会、商会等组织的党建工作,并在农业合作社、农村社会组织中创建基层党组织,使政村联合、片区化管理等成为基层党组织建设的新形式。三是常态化、长效化整顿软弱涣散的基层党组织,增强基层党组织政治功能和组织功能。坚持防治结合、以防为主原则,建立健全全程监测、全面整顿、长效预防、协调推动机制,把专项整治摆在重要位置,准确摸清各地基层党组织的实际问题,逐级列出整顿清单和整改方案,解决好部分基层党员干部政治能力弱化、组织生活娱乐化庸俗化等突出问题。建立健全相应的制度体系、责任体系、工作机制,以实现党组织有形覆盖和有效覆盖的有机统一,增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,引领基层党员干部更好地履行党章赋予的各项职责。
Strengthening the ability to organize the masses and the power of social appeal, and taking the Party's mass line well in the New Era. The Party's greatest political advantage is its close ties with the masses. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "Whether the Party can maintain its flesh-and-blood ties with the people determines the success or failure of the Party's cause." To strengthen the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, we must keep in mind the fundamental question of "what the Communist Party of China is and what it wants to do," and consciously follow the mass line in all the Party's work. To strengthen the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, first, adhere to a people-centered approach, always placing the interests of the people in the highest position. Fully combine the characteristics of mass work in the New Era and the actual situation of development, deeply study and master the scientific laws of organizing the masses, accurately respond to the demands of the masses, and effectively carry out organizational work. Be adept at solving the interest issues that concern the masses, pay attention to the demands of groups such as front-line workers, migrant workers, and families in difficulty, strive to remove institutional and mechanism obstacles that hinder workers from participating in development and sharing the fruits of development, take multiple measures to improve the level and quality of public services such as employment, elderly care, education, medical care, and environmental protection, sincerely solve problems and difficulties for the masses, and form a strong ability to organize the masses. Second, promote the formation of common value pursuits, and continuously strengthen the social appeal of Party organizations. Since entering the New Era, the values, interest composition, employment methods, and cultural demands of the people have continuously undergone new changes. Grassroots Party organizations must maintain a strong social appeal, conform to public sentiment, respect public opinion, pay attention to people's conditions, and devote themselves to people's livelihoods, deeply carry out educational practice activities on the Party's mass line, and actively solve what the people need, urgently need, and hope for. Further enhance the political consensus, value consensus, and emotional consensus of all the people, adhere to using common value pursuits and struggle goals to inspire and encourage people, and lead the broad masses of the people in carrying out the great struggle, building the great project, advancing the great cause, and realizing the great dream. Third, unify the strengthening of the political and organizational functions of Party organizations with the close flesh-and-blood ties between the Party and the people, and adhere to taking the Party's mass line well in the New Era. Deeply carry out mass investigation and research, accurately optimize the political and organizational functions of Party organizations based on actual conditions, and embed organizational work into the minutiae of social production and the lives of the masses. We must continue to carry forward the fine style of close ties with the masses, adhere to Party building leading grassroots work, so that Party organizations at all levels assume the important responsibilities of organizing the masses, publicizing the masses, rallying the masses, and serving the masses, and better lead the broad masses of the people.
增强群众组织力和社会号召力,走好新时代党的群众路线。党的最大政治优势是密切联系群众。习近平总书记指出:“能否保持党同人民群众的血肉联系,决定着党的事业的成败。”增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,必须牢记“中国共产党是什么、要干什么”这个根本问题,在党的各项工作中自觉走好群众路线。增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,一是坚持以人民为中心,始终将人民利益置于最高位置。充分结合新时代群众工作特点和发展实际,深入研究和掌握组织群众的科学规律,精准响应群众诉求,有效开展组织工作。善于解决群众关心的利益问题,关注一线职工、农民工、困难家庭等群体的诉求,努力排除阻碍劳动者参与发展、分享成果的体制机制障碍,多措并举提高就业、养老、教育、医疗、环境保护等公共服务水平和质量,真心实意为群众排忧解难,形成强大的群众组织力。二是推动形成共同的价值追求,持续增强党组织的社会号召力。进入新时代以来,人民群众的价值观念、利益构成、就业方式以及文化诉求等不断出现新变化,基层党组织务必保持强有力的社会号召力,顺应民心、尊重民意、关注民情、致力民生,深入开展党的群众路线教育实践活动,积极解决人民群众所需所急所盼。进一步增强全体人民的政治共识、价值共识和情感共识,坚持用共同价值追求和奋斗目标感召人、鼓舞人,带领广大人民群众进行伟大斗争、建设伟大工程、推进伟大事业、实现伟大梦想。三是把增强党组织政治功能和组织功能与密切党同人民群众的血肉联系统一起来,坚持走好新时代党的群众路线。深入开展群众调查研究,依据实际情况,精准优化党组织政治功能和组织功能,将组织工作做到社会生产和群众生活的细枝末节处。要持续发扬密切联系群众的优良作风,坚持党建引领基层工作,使各级党组织担负起组织群众、宣传群众、凝聚群众、服务群众的重要职责,更好地引领广大人民群众。
Promote the贯通协调 [n3] of all types of oversight, and build a contingent of cadres who are politically competent, meet the demands of the New Era, and possess the capacity to lead modernization. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out at the Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection: "We must advance political oversight in a concrete, precise, and regular manner." [n4] To strengthen the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, it is necessary to activate all oversight mechanisms, eliminate oversight blind spots, and transform the advantages of oversight into a sharp instrument for enriching and strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations. To strengthen the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, first, with the important goal of strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, further intensify intra-Party oversight. Develop and implement intra-Party democracy, improve the power operation mechanism characterized by scientific decision-making, resolute execution, and powerful oversight, so that all types of oversight can fully play their role, strengthen the full coverage and effectiveness of power oversight, continuously raise the level and intensity of political oversight, incorporate the results of Party organization building at all levels into the content system of intra-Party disciplinary inspection and inspection tours, [n5] so that intra-Party oversight forms a regular mechanism and becomes more concrete and precise. Second, fully reflect the institutional advantages of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and promote the贯通协调 of all types of oversight. Adhere to taking intra-Party oversight as the lead, firmly grasp this "ox nose" [n6] of intra-Party oversight, and fully integrate the multiple forces of people's congress oversight, democratic oversight, administrative oversight, judicial oversight, and so on. Continuously enrich and improve oversight methods, strengthen top-down organizational oversight, improve bottom-up democratic oversight, give play to the role of mutual oversight among peers at the same level, so that all types of oversight can each exert their own advantages, and enable multiple oversight subjects to coordinate and link up, complementing each other's strengths. In light of the current goals and tasks for further strengthening the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, design and implement a division-of-labor system and coordination mechanism that promotes the贯通协调 of all types of oversight, improve the cross-departmental oversight information sharing mechanism, thereby pooling the synergy of oversight, releasing the effectiveness of oversight, and forming a good situation where mechanisms are efficiently linked and all departments work together in close cooperation. Third, strengthen digital oversight, and make good use of online new media oversight carriers. Empower Party organization management with digital technology, and build a well-functioning, wide-coverage online new media oversight information platform. Consciously accept the oversight of the people, keep open channels for the people to report and supervise, strengthen oversight in key areas of people's livelihood such as education, medical care, and housing, and establish a whole-process, whole-chain online oversight process for problem referral, credit punishment, and clue transfer. Relying on the collaborative oversight mechanism, build a contingent of cadres who are politically competent, meet the demands of the New Era, and possess the capacity to lead modernization, ensuring that the political and organizational functions of Party organizations play their due role in the process of coordinately advancing the great new project of Party building in the New Era and Chinese-path modernization.
促进各类监督贯通协调,建设政治过硬、适应新时代要求、具备领导现代化建设能力的干部队伍。习近平总书记在二十届中央纪委四次全会上指出:“要推进政治监督具体化、精准化、常态化。”增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,需激活各类监督机制,消除监督空白点,把监督优势转化为丰富和增强党组织政治功能和组织功能的利器。增强党组织政治功能和组织功能,一是以增强党组织政治功能和组织功能为重要目的,进一步强化党内监督。发展和落实党内民主,健全决策科学、执行坚决、监督有力的权力运行机制,使各类监督充分发挥作用,强化权力监督的全覆盖和有效性,不断提升政治监督的等级和强度,将各级党组织建设成果纳入党内监督检查和巡视巡察的内容体系,使党内监督形成常态化机制,更为具体化和精准化。二是充分体现中国特色社会主义制度优势,促进各类监督的贯通协调。坚持以党内监督为主导,紧紧抓住党内监督这个“牛鼻子”,充分整合人大监督、民主监督、行政监督、司法监督等多方力量。持续丰富和完善监督方式,强化自上而下的组织监督,改进自下而上的民主监督,发挥同级相互监督作用,使各类监督各自发挥优势,让多方监督主体协调联动、优势互补。针对当前进一步增强党组织政治功能和组织功能的目标任务,设计实施促进各类监督贯通协调的分工制度和配合机制,健全跨部门监督信息共享机制,从而汇集监督合力,释放监督效能,形成机制高效衔接、各部门通力协作的良好局面。三是强化数字监督,用好网络新媒体监督载体。以数字赋能党组织管理,搭建功能健全、覆盖广泛的网络新媒体监督信息平台。自觉接受人民监督,畅通人民群众监督举报渠道,在教育、医疗、住房等民生重点领域加强监督,建立问题转办、信用惩戒、线索移送全过程全链条的网络监督流程。依靠协同监督机制,建设政治过硬、适应新时代要求、具备领导现代化建设能力的干部队伍,确保党组织政治功能和组织功能在协同推进新时代党的建设新的伟大工程与中国式现代化的过程中发挥出应有的作用。
