I. General Secretary Xi Jinping’s Important Thought on the Party’s Self-Revolution Is a Major Theoretical Innovation Based on the Great Practice of Comprehensive and Strict Governance of the Party in the New Era

一、习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想是新时代全面从严治党伟大实践基础上的重大理论创新

Theory originates from practice and is used to guide practice. Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, General Secretary Xi Jinping, from the strategic heights of maintaining the advanced nature and integrity of a Marxist political party, consolidating the Party’s long-term governing position, smoothly realizing the Party’s historical mission, and ensuring the enduring prosperity of the Party and the people’s cause, has incorporated comprehensive and strict governance of the Party into the Four-Pronged Comprehensive Strategy [1]1 The Four-Pronged Comprehensive Strategy refers to comprehensively building a moderately prosperous society, comprehensively deepening reform, comprehensively governing the country according to law, and comprehensively and strictly governing the Party., put forward the general requirements for Party building in the New Era, holistically designed and scientifically advanced comprehensive and strict governance of the Party in the New Era, and launched a “combined punch” of self-revolution, providing fundamental guidance and a strong guarantee for the development of the Party and the national cause. Taking the Party’s political construction as the guide, it has clearly upheld and strengthened the Party’s leadership and resolutely safeguarded the Party’s unity and solidarity; armed the entire Party with Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, continuously carried out centralized intra-Party education, and unified thought, will, and action; taking the proposal and adherence to the Party’s organizational line for the New Era as the entry point, it has tightened the organizational system and built a strong cadre team, transforming the Party’s political and organizational advantages into advantages for victory; taking the formulation and implementation of the Eight-Point Regulations [2]2 The Eight-Point Regulations are a set of rules issued by the CPC Central Committee in 2012 to improve work style, reduce bureaucracy, and curb extravagance among Party officials. as the opening move, it has persistently corrected the “Four Forms of Decadence” [3]3 The “Four Forms of Decadence” (四风) refer to formalism, bureaucratism, hedonism, and extravagance. and fostered new practices, using the “small incision” of work style construction to drive the great transformation of comprehensive and strict governance of the Party; taking the strict enforcement of the Party’s political discipline and political rules as the lead, it has driven the comprehensive strictness of organizational discipline, clean governance discipline, mass line discipline, work discipline, and life discipline, prompting Party members and cadres to enhance their consciousness of abiding by rules and discipline; using institutions to govern the entire Party, it has advanced institutional innovation in step with the times, improved the Party and state supervision systems, and continuously perfected the institutional normative system for the Party’s self-revolution; with a zero-tolerance attitude, it has waged an unprecedented anti-corruption struggle, advancing the integrated efforts to ensure that officials dare not, cannot, and do not want to engage in corruption [4]4 The “three don’ts” (三不腐) refers to the anti-corruption strategy of ensuring that officials dare not, cannot, and do not want to engage in corruption., achieving an overwhelming victory and comprehensively consolidating it. Through the revolutionary forging of comprehensive and strict governance of the Party in the New Era, our Party has eliminated serious hidden dangers within the Party, the state, and the military; the lax and soft state of Party management and governance has been fundamentally reversed; a clean and upright intra-Party political ecology has been continuously formed and developed; the Party’s capacity for self-purification, self-improvement, self-renewal, and self-enhancement has been significantly strengthened; the Party’s advanced nature and integrity have been ensured; the overall improvement of the Party’s long-term governing capacity has been achieved; the second answer to the historical cycle of rise and fall has been found [5]5 The “second answer” refers to the Party’s self-revolution as the second way to break the historical cycle of rise and fall, the first being the democratic oversight proposed by Mao Zedong.; and the historical initiative to ensure that the Party does not change its nature, color, or flavor has been won, along with the historical initiative for the Party to unite and lead all the people in the great struggle for national strength and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

理论源于实践,又用来指导实践。党的十八大以来,习近平总书记从保持马克思主义政党先进性和纯洁性、巩固党的长期执政地位、顺利实现党的历史使命、确保党和人民事业长盛不衰的战略高度,把全面从严治党纳入“四个全面”战略布局,提出新时代党的建设总要求,整体设计、科学推进新时代全面从严治党,打出一套自我革命的“组合拳”,为党和国家事业发展提供了根本引领和坚强保障。以党的政治建设为统领,旗帜鲜明坚持和加强党的领导,坚决维护党的团结统一;以习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想武装全党,持续开展党内集中教育,统一思想、统一意志、统一行动;以提出和坚持新时代党的组织路线为切入点,严密组织体系、建强干部队伍,把党的政治优势和组织优势转化为制胜优势;以制定和落实中央八项规定开局破题,持之以恒纠“四风”树新风,用作风建设“小切口”推动全面从严治党大变局;以严明党的政治纪律和政治规矩打头,带动组织纪律、廉洁纪律、群众纪律、工作纪律、生活纪律全面从严,推动党员干部增强遵规守纪的自觉;以制度管全党治全党,与时俱进推进制度创新,完善党和国家监督体系,不断健全党的自我革命制度规范体系;以零容忍态度开展史无前例的反腐败斗争,一体推进不敢腐、不能腐、不想腐,取得压倒性胜利并全面巩固。经过新时代全面从严治党的革命性锻造,我们党消除了党、国家、军队内部存在的严重隐患,管党治党宽松软状况得到根本扭转,风清气正的党内政治生态不断形成和发展,党的自我净化、自我完善、自我革新、自我提高能力显著增强,确保了党的先进性和纯洁性,实现了党的长期执政能力整体性提升,找到了跳出治乱兴衰历史周期率的第二个答案,赢得了确保党不变质、不变色、不变味的历史主动,赢得了党团结带领全体人民为强国建设、民族复兴伟业共同奋斗的历史主动。

The fundamental reason why comprehensive and strict governance of the Party in the New Era has achieved historic accomplishments and won the firm support and heartfelt endorsement of the people lies in the leadership and stewardship of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core and in the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. The magnificent practice of comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, as the most prominent and concentrated manifestation of the Party’s self-revolution in the New Era, has provided rich practical soil for the formation and development of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important thought on the Party’s self-revolution. In this historical process, General Secretary Xi Jinping has put forward a series of original and landmark new concepts, new ideas, and new strategies, leading the entire Party to continuously enrich theoretical achievements and construct an ideological system, scientifically answering major questions such as why our Party must engage in self-revolution, why it can engage in self-revolution, and how to advance self-revolution. He has clearly put forward the practical requirements of the “Nine Withs” [6]6 The “Nine Withs” (九个以) are the nine practical requirements for advancing the Party’s self-revolution, as listed in the paragraph., emphasizing: taking the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee as the fundamental guarantee; taking the leadership of the great social revolution as the fundamental purpose; taking Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era as the fundamental guide; taking the breaking of the historical cycle as the strategic goal; taking the resolution of the unique challenges facing a large party as the main direction of attack; taking the improvement of the comprehensive and strict governance of the Party system as the effective pathway; taking the forging of strong organizations and the building of capable teams as the important focal point; taking the rectification of work styles, strict enforcement of discipline, and anti-corruption as the important grasp; and taking the combination of self-supervision and public supervision as the powerful driving force. This has formed General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important thought on the Party’s self-revolution, guiding the century-old Party to open up a new realm of self-revolution. Discipline inspection and supervision organs must more deeply comprehend the decisive significance of the Two Establishments [7]7 The Two Establishments (两个确立) refer to establishing Xi Jinping’s core position on the Party Central Committee and in the Party as a whole, and establishing the guiding role of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era., enhance the Four Consciousnesses [8]8 The Four Consciousnesses (四个意识) refer to the consciousness of the need to maintain political integrity, think in big-picture terms, follow the leadership core, and keep in alignment with the central Party leadership., strengthen the Four Confidences [9]9 The Four Confidences (四个自信) refer to confidence in the path, theory, system, and culture of socialism with Chinese characteristics., and achieve the Two Upholds [10]10 The Two Upholds (两个维护) refer to upholding General Secretary Xi Jinping’s core position on the Party Central Committee and in the Party as a whole, and upholding the authority and centralized, unified leadership of the Party Central Committee.; unswervingly uphold and strengthen the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee; deeply study and thoroughly understand General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important thought on the Party’s self-revolution; consciously use it to arm the mind, guide practice, and promote work; and always maintain a high degree of unity with the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core in thought, politics, and action.

新时代全面从严治党之所以取得历史性成就,赢得人民群众坚定支持和衷心拥护,根本在于以习近平同志为核心的党中央领航掌舵,在于习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想科学指引。全面从严治党波澜壮阔的伟大实践,作为党的自我革命在新时代最突出、最集中的体现,为习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想的形成和发展提供了丰厚实践沃土。习近平总书记在这一历史进程中提出一系列具有原创性、标志性的新理念新思想新战略,带领全党不断丰富理论成果、构筑思想体系,科学回答我们党为什么要自我革命、为什么能自我革命、怎样推进自我革命等重大问题,鲜明提出“九个以”的实践要求,强调以坚持党中央集中统一领导为根本保证,以引领伟大社会革命为根本目的,以习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想为根本遵循,以跳出历史周期率为战略目标,以解决大党独有难题为主攻方向,以健全全面从严治党体系为有效途径,以锻造坚强组织、建设过硬队伍为重要着力点,以正风肃纪反腐为重要抓手,以自我监督和人民监督相结合为强大动力,形成了习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想,指引百年大党开辟了自我革命新境界。纪检监察机关要更加深刻领悟“两个确立”的决定性意义,增强“四个意识”、坚定“四个自信”、做到“两个维护”,毫不动摇坚持和加强党中央集中统一领导,深学细悟习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想,自觉用以武装头脑、指导实践、推动工作,始终在思想上政治上行动上同以习近平同志为核心的党中央保持高度一致。

II. Deeply Grasp the Major Significance of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s Important Thought on the Party’s Self-Revolution

二、深刻把握习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想的重大意义

General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important thought on the Party’s self-revolution has milestone significance in the process of adapting Marxism to the Chinese context and the needs of the times, in the history of the Communist Party of China, and in the history of Marxist political party building. It must be deeply understood and comprehensively grasped, and the sense of responsibility and mission for its implementation must be continuously enhanced.

习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想,在马克思主义中国化时代化进程中,在中国共产党历史、马克思主义政党建设史上都具有里程碑意义,要深刻领会、全面把握,不断增强贯彻落实的责任感和使命感。

First, this important thought creatively enriches and develops Marxist party-building theory, elevating the understanding of the laws governing the management and governance of Marxist political parties to a new height, and has major theoretical significance. Marxism’s distinct revolutionary character and thorough critical spirit contain a rich ideological connotation of self-revolution. The classic Marxist writers had extensive discussions on party building, especially on maintaining the Party’s advanced nature and integrity. Since the New Era, General Secretary Xi Jinping has adhered to the application of the basic principles of Marxism, creatively put forward the major proposition of “the Party’s self-revolution,” and continuously promoted its systematization and theorization, gradually developing and forming General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important thought on the Party’s self-revolution. This important thought is both an epistemology and a methodology; it both sets the task of “crossing the river” and guides the solution to the problem of “the bridge or the boat.” It profoundly answers many major questions that the classic Marxist writers did not discuss and that Western political party theories have always been unable to solve, making a major original contribution to enriching and developing Marxist party-building theory.

第一,这一重要思想创造性地丰富和发展了马克思主义建党学说,把对马克思主义政党管党治党的规律性认识提升到新高度,具有重大的理论意义。马克思主义具有的鲜明革命性和彻底的批判精神,蕴含着丰富的自我革命思想内涵。马克思主义经典作家在党的建设特别是保持党的先进性和纯洁性等方面有着丰富的论述。新时代以来,习近平总书记坚持运用马克思主义基本原理,开创性提出“党的自我革命”这一重大命题并不断推进体系化学理化,逐步发展形成了习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想。这一重要思想既是认识论、又是方法论,既提出“过河”的任务、又指导解决“桥或船”的问题,深刻回答了马克思主义经典作家没有讲过、西方政党理论始终无法解决的许多重大问题,为丰富和发展马克思主义建党学说作出了重大原创性贡献。

Second, this important thought creatively draws on the ideological nourishment of self-revolution from the excellent traditional Chinese culture, establishing a new model of the Second Integration [11]11 The Second Integration (第二个结合) refers to the integration of the basic tenets of Marxism with the excellent traditional Chinese culture., and has major cultural significance. General Secretary Xi Jinping regards the excellent traditional Chinese culture as an important ideological resource for the Party’s self-revolution, achieving creative transformation and innovative development in continuing the historical lineage and drawing on historical wisdom, endowing this important thought with a broader cultural connotation. In rectifying work styles, it draws on the historical lesson that “the beginning of extravagance is the beginning of peril and ruin,” emphasizing the continuous and deep improvement of work styles; in strictly enforcing discipline, it draws on the rule-of-law thinking that “if you want to know straightness, you must use a plumb line; if you want to know squareness and roundness, you must use compasses and squares,” emphasizing the key of strictly enforcing discipline; in anti-corruption, it draws on the governance principle that “those skilled at remedying ills must block the source of the ills,” emphasizing the deepening of both symptoms and root causes and the integrated advancement of the “three don’ts” [12]12 The “three don’ts” (三不腐) is the same as note [4]; here it refers to the integrated anti-corruption strategy.; and so on. General Secretary Xi Jinping adheres to making the past serve the present and weeding through the old to bring forth the new, fully absorbing the essence of self-revolution from the excellent traditional Chinese culture through dialectical sublation, giving the important thought on the Party’s self-revolution an extremely strong spiritual appeal.

第二,这一重要思想创造性地汲取了中华优秀传统文化中关于自我革命的思想营养,树立了“第二个结合”的新典范,具有重大的文化意义。习近平总书记将中华优秀传统文化作为党的自我革命的重要思想资源,在赓续历史文脉、汲取历史智慧中实现创造性转化和创新性发展,赋予这一重要思想更加宏阔的文化内涵。在正风上,借鉴“奢靡之始,危亡之渐”的历史教训,强调持续深入改进作风;在肃纪上,借鉴“欲知平直,则必准绳;欲知方圆,则必规矩”的法治思维,强调抓好严明纪律这个关键;在反腐上,借鉴“善救弊者,必塞其起弊之源”的治理之道,强调深化标本兼治,一体推进“三不腐”;等等。习近平总书记坚持古为今用、推陈出新,在辩证扬弃中充分吸收中华优秀传统文化中关于自我革命的精华养分,使党的自我革命的重要思想具有极强的精神感召力。

Third, this important thought creatively reveals the key genetic code of a century-old major party’s flourishing vitality, endowing the governance and strictness of the Party with new connotations across the board, and bearing significant historical significance. An advanced Marxist party is not born naturally, but is forged through continuous self-revolution. Our Party’s history of struggle over more than 100 years is also a history of maintaining caution and consistently daring to engage in self-revolution. Facing the risks and tests of each historical period, our Party has always insisted on turning its blade inward, resolutely struggling against all problems that weaken the Party’s advanced nature and impair its purity, curing illnesses and healing wounds, purging the vile and exalting the pure, and ensuring through its own constant robustness that the Party always remains the vanguard of the times and the backbone of the nation. General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important thought on the Party’s self-revolution profoundly summarizes our Party’s glorious course of unremittingly advancing self-revolution over more than 100 years, deeply perceives our Party’s historical experience of using the spirit of self-revolution to correct errors, improve itself, and achieve victory, and promotes the governance and strictness of the Party to proceed steadily and far on a new historical starting point.

第三,这一重要思想创造性地揭示了百年大党风华正茂的重要基因密码,赋予管党治党全面从严的新内涵,具有重大的历史意义。先进的马克思主义政党不是天生的,而是在不断自我革命中淬炼而成的。我们党100多年来的奋斗史,也是慎终如始勇于自我革命的历史。面对各个历史时期的风险考验,我们党始终坚持刀刃向内,坚决同一切弱化党的先进性、损害党的纯洁性的问题作斗争,祛病疗伤,激浊扬清,以自身的始终过硬确保党始终成为时代先锋、民族脊梁。习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想,深刻总结我们党100多年来坚持不懈推进自我革命的光辉历程,深邃洞察我们党以自我革命精神纠正错误、完善自身、走向胜利的历史经验,推动管党治党在新的历史起点上行稳致远。

Fourth, this important thought creatively summarizes the basic laws of the Party’s self-revolution in the New Era, opening up a new realm for the self-revolution of a century-old major Party, and has great epochal significance. Entering the New Era, in the face of a series of prominent contradictions and problems within the Party, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, with a high degree of self-awareness of self-revolution and a sense of mission and responsibility to “offend thousands of people rather than fail 1.4 billion,” has led the entire Party to deeply advance comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, clean governance, and the anti-corruption struggle. The courage, resolve, and measures to solve problems are unprecedented, and the results achieved are equally unprecedented. General Secretary Xi Jinping has profoundly summarized the great achievements and valuable experiences of the Party’s self-revolution in the New Era, moving from the “six unities” and the “four unswerving commitments” [13]13 “Discipline inspection and supervision” (纪检监察) refers to the work of the Party’s internal disciplinary bodies and the state’s anti-corruption agencies, which operate jointly under the leadership of the Party Central Committee. to the “six musts” and the “nine adherences” [14]14 The “first agenda” system (第一议题制度) refers to the practice of making the study of the Party’s latest theoretical achievements the first item on the agenda of Party committee meetings and similar gatherings., and then to the profound elaboration of this important thought at the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection [15]15 The “Four Forms of Decadence” (四风) are formalism, bureaucratism, hedonism, and extravagance.. The theoretical achievements of the Party’s self-revolution have continuously been enriched and developed, guiding the deepening of the Party’s self-revolution on the new journey of the New Era and better solving the unique problems of a major Party.

第四,这一重要思想创造性地总结了新时代党的自我革命的基本规律,开辟了百年大党自我革命的新境界,具有重大的时代意义。进入新时代,面对党内一系列突出矛盾和问题,以习近平同志为核心的党中央以自我革命的高度自觉,以“得罪千百人、不负十四亿”的使命担当,带领全党深入推进全面从严治党、党风廉政建设和反腐败斗争,解决问题的勇气、定力、举措前所未有,取得的成果更是前所未有。习近平总书记深刻总结新时代党的自我革命的伟大成就和宝贵经验,从“六个相统一”“四个坚定不移”,到“六个必须”“九个坚持”,再到在二十届中央纪委三次全会上深刻阐释这一重要思想,党的自我革命理论成果不断丰富发展,指引新时代新征程深入推进党的自我革命,更好解决大党独有难题。

Fifth, this important thought creatively elucidates the dialectical relationship between the “two great revolutions” [16]16 The “Four Forms” (四种形态) of supervision and discipline enforcement are a graduated system of handling violations, ranging from criticism and education to severe punishment., providing new scientific guidance for leading the great social revolution through the great self-revolution, and has great practical significance. General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly pointed out: “To carry out the great social revolution of upholding and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics in the New Era, our Party must be brave in carrying out self-revolution and build the Party to be stronger and more powerful.” A Marxist political party takes the liberation of all humanity as its mission; social revolution is the goal and direction. To fulfill this mission, the Party must be forged into a strong and powerful leading core; self-revolution is the precursor and guarantee. Only by planning the Party’s self-revolution around the new requirements of social revolution practice and using the new achievements of social revolution development to promote the Party’s self-revolution can the two complement and reinforce each other.

第五,这一重要思想创造性地阐明了“两个伟大革命”的辩证关系,为以伟大自我革命引领伟大社会革命提供了科学新指引,具有重大的实践意义。习近平总书记深刻指出:“要把新时代坚持和发展中国特色社会主义这场伟大社会革命进行好,我们党必须勇于进行自我革命,把党建设得更加坚强有力。”马克思主义政党以实现全人类解放为使命,社会革命是目标和方向;实现使命必须把党锻造成坚强有力的领导核心,自我革命是先导和保证。只有围绕社会革命实践的新要求来谋划党的自我革命,用社会革命发展的新成果来促进党的自我革命,才能相辅相成、相得益彰。习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想,极大丰富和发展了新时代中国共产党人的革命观,充分揭示了社会革命是自我革命的根本目的和归宿,自我革命是社会革命的重要前提和保障,为纵深推进“两个伟大革命”指明了前进方向。

Fourth, this important thought creatively summarizes the basic laws of the Party’s self-revolution in the New Era, opening up a new realm for the self-revolution of a century-old major party, and bearing significant epochal significance. Entering the New Era, facing a series of prominent contradictions and problems within the Party, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at

第六,这一重要思想创造性地破解了自我监督这个世界性难题,为世界各国政党自身建设及治国理政提供了新选择,具有重大的国际意义。如何及时发现和解决自身存在的问题,是世界各国政党面临的重大共同课题。长期以来,囿于意识形态偏见,一些人吹捧西方多党轮流执政、“三权鼎立”那一套,不相信我们党能够刀刃向内、自剜腐肉,中国共产党勇于自我革命的实践给出了响亮有力的回答。自我监督和人民监督相辅相成,人民监督越充分,自我监督越自觉;自我监督越有力,人民监督越有效;人民监督和自我监督结合得越紧密,党自身存在的问题就解决得越迅速、越彻底。习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想,坚持内因外因辩证统一,突出内因决定性作用,超越了西方政党主要依赖外部力量监督的路径,为世界各国执政党开展政党治理、应对执政考验提供了重要借鉴。

3. Promoting high-quality development of discipline inspection and supervision work under the guidance of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important thought on the Party’s self-revolution

三、在习近平总书记关于党的自我革命的重要思想指引下推动纪检监察工作高质量发展

Discipline inspection and supervision organs are an important force in advancing the Party’s self-revolution. Since the 20th National Congress of the CPC, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, the National Commission of Supervision, and discipline inspection and supervision organs at all levels, guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and especially General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important thought on the Party’s self-revolution, have comprehensively implemented the guiding principles of the 20th National Congress of the CPC and the Second, Third, and Fourth Plenary Sessions of the 20th Central Committee, earnestly fulfilled the duties conferred by the Party Constitution and the Constitution, continuously deepened the rectification of work style, strict discipline, and the fight against corruption, and unswervingly pushed the Party’s self-revolution deeper.

Fourth, they comprehensively strengthened Party discipline building, deepened discipline education, strengthened discipline enforcement, and comprehensively leveraged the roles of Party discipline in education, restraint, guarantee, and motivation. Since the 20th National Congress of the CPC, discipline inspection and supervision organs nationwide have used the “Four Forms” to criticize, educate, and deal with 5.968 million person-times. Fifth, they advanced the “Three Non-Corruptions” in an integrated manner, seriously investigated and punished corruption involving collusion between government and business, and conducted penetrating investigations into new types of corruption and hidden corruption. Since the 20th National Congress of the CPC, discipline inspection and supervision organs nationwide have filed cases and investigated 2.731 million people; focusing on areas with concentrated power, dense capital, and abundant resources, they deeply advanced systematic rectification in fields such as finance, state-owned enterprises, energy, fire protection, tobacco, medicine, higher education, sports, development zones, infrastructure projects, and bidding, deepened special rectification of corruption in the grain purchase and sales sector, special governance of corruption in the football sector, cooperated with special governance of statistical falsification, and made every effort to eradicate the soil and conditions for breeding corruption; they improved the digital discipline inspection and supervision system, installing a technological “perspective mirror” for anti-corruption; they strengthened the construction of a clean culture in the New Era, building a solid ideological defense line against corruption and degeneration.

Since the concentrated rectification, nationwide, 3.918 million issues of urgent concern to the people have been resolved, continuously consolidating the Party’s governing foundation. Seventh, they deepened political inspections, organized six rounds of central inspections, inspecting 31 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the central government and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, 65 central and state organs, 57 centrally administered enterprises, and 15 centrally administered financial enterprises, conducted inspections at the prefecture level, discovered and promoted the resolution of a number of prominent issues, and sharpened the inspection sword to make it brighter and sharper.
